No 2-boxing. Get a friend to play with you, if you don't want to solo.

to be fair i wouldnt play p99 blue or red if boxing was enabled either. on sz you could only make your toon on one team. nothing will stop people from boxing an alt to the other team to find people/dispel/train) the potential for grief outweight the convenience of having your own port bot. i mean there are no IP bans so there is no harm in training your own team anyway, this will just make it worse. id be more more in favor of activating the combines than enabling boxing. i think boxing will hurt grouping as much as it will benefit for those not wanting to box, GL getting into groups. its already hard to get into the various cliques on the server, will be even harder when they need noone but their box. see brainz for example, boxing helped himself and only himself.

maybe if you could restrict an IP to one team but i dont see how. also the people arguing that it allows a smaller group to contest a larger one, how does this make sense if the opposition can box too. nilly players are generally more serious about this game. if you dont think itll be damn near mandatory they box, you gotta be kidding yourselves. might as well multiply nilly by 2.

unless by contest you mean raiding a mob then ya i can see that.

Played vztz. I boxed. Pretty sure everyone did. I did it mostly to load up my wizard to port my group around instead of waiting on the +/- 100 pop to possibly port us around. It was also great self buffing and being able to level up multiple toons. It was also a huge hassle anytime someone found me two boxing and having to pvp with both toons while the person I was fighting could concentrate on just the one. I could go either way on boxing really.
But honestly I doubt the higher powers that be will give us boxing, because it kills most of the 'community' that comes along with forced grouping and socialization etc.

My 2cp

there's a decently sizable number of players in nihilum because there's no other option rather than because their particularly enamored by the people in the guild. boxing suddenly creates alternate options for downing big bosses, and removes the necessity of being in a large guild to do so.

all im asking is for an even playing field without subjecting everyone to "forced" boxing to compete. in fact i hope they go hardcore SZ ruleset. one char per IP on one team. even more + is tie that one toon to their forum account. no more spies, no more BS. everyone accountable. i know thats unrealistic and probably far from popular but thought id throw that out there since people are suggesting boxing.

boxing was classic but at the expense of precious bandwidth (til broadband was everywhere) and at the cost of a 2nd account beig payed for plus the purchase of the game and its expansions. not til late velious did i really see boxing become popular, even then it wasnt as bad as it would probably be here. maybe i was just never exposed to it but it was seldom i was aware of someone boxing until luclin +.
