Nilbog's Old Teams back to the top

[Gustoo]

One problem came to mind about a hard coded teams server.

Inter-team petitionquest.

I think we need to go into the teams experiment with the stated understanding that if the teams act poorly and engage in petitionquest internally that the teams project will be dumpstered and a FFA scenario will be allowed to play out instead.

I think we will know pretty much right away if its going to be disgusting garbage community or if the teams will act well internally and direct all of their angst towards the opposing team.

Not sure if the intention was to allow multiple starting cities or just make it Oggok vs Grobb starting cities only or what. That would be something to mess with in beta with multiple resets and stuff to see the best way. Its possible if we can encourage PVP fighting early on than the teams will know to depend on eachother for brave victory rather than despise eachother and begrudge eachother pixels.

I still can't get over how grown man children can't let go of an awful PVP server and keep coping by creating new threads of a new PVP server like it's the 2nd coming of Christ. Sad. Just plain sad.

Don't nerf vision to classic lvls and leave titanium vision in.

both team sets give every team but team iksar every class, sorry iksars, u suffer for the privilage of being #1 and starting in kunark all by urself get gud

You really don't want immune characters on a PvP server that is destined to have little to no GM involvement. We are all cross teaming scumbags and you will just be trained by people you can't even attack if teams are a thing. People will buff / rez while being immune or if thats not allowed help pell cc / dots off their friends on enemy faction characters etc

I agree lol. No amount coding/ of blocking trade/communication in game will make a difference either.

Thats why I favor old school rules, no YT, and vanilla, so ppl can enjoy the game, pvp is fast, no one is ever really immune to dying, and have fun without worrying to much about shenanigains and crazy insanebearding.

Losing a naggy to a train aint that big a deal compared to dying in the back of seb even.

WOuld be real funn(y) to have Iksar vs Kerrans only tho on a custom box lol. Guess both races could have all classes unlocked + AC, regen and sneak/hide/forage for everyone

maybe give them human stats both, so it would be an even matchup
