I went looking for a fight after missing one with Brawl. I ran past four guys with no le. none were worth the soul light loss. What a shame that consenting pvp no le chars still hide from fights with soul light and roleplay.

Hello Arista,
There is currently an open thread where this can be discussed, I'd suggest you go there to talk.
Soul light is eliminating PvP and hurting population
Hello. Moderators said the Brainport was for suggesting ideas to the devs. This is just a topic I wanted to discuss separately and hopefully draw more attention to the Brainport thread soul light discussion.
I fail to find the hint in your original post where you open the conversation to discussion. To be honest all I see is the expression of disappointment.
I think the brainport thread is exactly where you need to be. It's OK to be disappointed or complain even. But I'd like to suggest that you come up with a solution to your found problem and use the thread I previously suggested to suggest it :)
working as intended.
This is a roleplaying game. If you ONLY want to fight and don't care about the storyline, this isn't the game for you. "Hiding" behind roleplaying means playing the game as it was intended. Punishments exist for green on green for a reason, and in zones that are policed, even killing an enemy is enforced, which fits the story.Quote:

I'm not debating whether there should be easier ways to gain SL back etc. Just pointing out the obvious.
For what reason would you want to fight them? Because you could? Or some other justification? Please enlighten us.Quote:

This is the great fallacy of carebears. great games are built to advance enemies as much as friends. People should appreciate a player who can play well and handle to harsh consequences of criminal actions. sadly the current SL System does not reflect pvp into the RP.Quote:

You people seem to think all they ever do is zoneline pvp. People go there to pvp when op fights can't or won't happen. People go there for zoneline pvp because neofrag is shit. People go there because the community isn't mature enough to go fight at Battledome or some other battleground sector and let people rez so they can fight again.
Put some events on then.
Exactly, I remember the old days of pp1 actually, there was ppus.. but they were there to rez people and heal them when they died no matter the side so it kept going. These days you get people charging in with 10 people and 3 ppus to kill 1 guy then scream on OOC how awesome they are (then you fight them 2v1 without ppu and kick their ass =p ). I don't know when it happened but a lot of bad elements started playing or else just invaded the fun fights scene. Hopefully when the population picks up again these borderline cheaters will go somewhere else.Quote:

I rarely go to pp1 anymore because of this..Quote:

And neither are fun, at all.
On the rare occasion that there only are 2-3 enemies you can be sure that they are fully buffed and have a Holy Heal running..
Exactly this!Quote:

I don't have an issue attacking four ppu bufffed fools. Ask their ppu for buffs or bring your own. if not, then enjoy mocking up the least skilled of the bunch. Take up a challenge. fuck whining. fear of a loss is a good reason to not fight. loss of soul light shouldn't be the only factor.
If i recall Walker at his best...he could take down three fools and then kill the ppu.
Walker is old and washed up now. He used to run with the cool dudes but now he just sits in his apt eating milky rens like a fatty.
The Dev tanks that you have in STD is a BITCH to kill without having PPU buffs yourself - They can kill most of my characters in 3 Dev hits lol..Quote:

But Im okay with not being as good as back then.. I enjoy RL more than NC these days ;)
EDIT: Yeah I am getting old..
By your own admission that was clan doy. Watching them fight was like watching old people fuck. (Quote hivemind a loooooong time ago about a different clan.) ;)Quote:

For me the exciting part of neocron is that a.) a fight can break out anywhere and b.) there are actual consequences to dying or killing someone. That's what I notice as being the key difference between how excited I get, how fast my heart races, while I am fighting in an old school game with like Neocron versus something like Planetside 2 or any other FPS. I mean on almost every level Neocron is an inferior shooter because of the technical limitations it is forced to work within but it is still infinitely more exciting to play and get into scraps with because of that one reason. If I only wanted to pvp when I knew there wuold be a rez coming and little to no consequences of me loosing or winning I would never have come back to play this game when so many other FPS's are out there that offer a better combat experience in terms of the physics, mechanics, visuals and visceral immersion that just comes with newer engines and more refined game design. But that's just me, I can certainly appreciate that there are people that aren't in the same boat, it just doesn't seem like pvp at all when you have a zoneline right there to hide behind when you get into trouble.Quote:

I used to run around with a stealth tool and would stealth and GTFO any time someone got near me.
Well... buffing hostiles is surely odd but hey, whatever floats your boat. Wasteland saints are a welcome diversion from the norm.Quote:
