Fate of P99 blue

[Kringe]

Only having 2 Teams is terrible for balance, as proven in the "Horde/Alliance" that WoW has demonstrated...

Teams have never ever been a good idea, as it continues to be proven in every mmo released thats based on teams... IE WoW, Rift, (insert mmo here)
people always flock to the "bad side" causing massive amount of server merges only months after the games have been released (or in Wow's case Server transfers) to balance out the sides.


FFA is the only way to go.

Dark Age of Camelot remedied this with 3 teams. 2 teams will always be imbalanced and I can't seem to understand why they keep making PvP games with only 2 sides. When 1 gets too big the other have a common enemy.

Most illogical post ever. Will always be a smaller gap in power balance with 2 teams than 3.

You are fucking retarded. The reason why they keep releasing games with teams is..... (drum roll)

Because it works!!!

Do you really think if it didn't work they would release games that way and continue to? WoW has how many subscribers? MAN THAT SEEMS LIKE A FAILING SYSTEM THUURRR!!

The biggest fail pvp I have run across was FFA. *cough* Vanguard *cough* That PVP server was horrible. You had one large guild steamrolling everywhere. The population dwindled very quickly.

Again, if you want longevity, make it teams. If you want fail numbers with one guild dominating, make it FFA (geee... that said guild all vote for FFA, go figure!)

AO had 3 teams, but the PVP was very limited to certain areas. I would probably still be playing it if it had PVP everywhere.

Pretty sure it had more people online than any other EQ server (blue or red) when it first launched.

Population went down the closer you get to luclin release, back up after PoP release, then of course back down again for GoD release, never to recover again.

Red99 being better than P99 is about as possible Ashton Kutcher's 2 and a half men being better than Charlie Sheen

SZ released in like june or july of 2001 if i remember right and luclin came out in december, 6 months.

Basing population upon a release of an expansion is always a good way to measure a server, amirite!

Either way ill play team, ffa, or what ever but sz had the lowest average of the pvp server after the novelty of it being new wore off
