    The new PvP content looks exciting with the use of levels and Tier Gear. I am not too keen on he bounty system however which to me is retarded in an 18+ video game. As for the instances that sounds cool, and some new items so really all is okay!

    "and if they manage to kill you while you have red fugitive you will actually drop one of your better items and gold that they can loot!"


    Is this my quote to quit this wonderfull game?

    What the fuk are they talking about, gezz, i tough they were joking when they said this >.>

    So we can no longer go on killing sprees on a P V P game, whats the point of PVP then? If we can't kill for what the heck, we my as well go to a RP-PVP server.


    If it wasn't enough the bugs (understandable in there, trully understandable), the latest patches that bring more bugs that they fix (this last one hit several players really hard, me included), they now going to add a game breaking feacture.


    I see several ways of exploiting this new feacture just to steal other players money or items.

    The fugitive system is plain idiotic,and will bring alot of dispair,not fun, to the game.Not having your gold on you is a valid solution,but not wearing your best gear for PvP/PvE is NOT a solution.What will we do with our best gear then,wear on events to show off and prance like sissy rpers then put back in the closet for the rest of the game,and never really make use of it.So some suggest that we wear second grade equip to play the game,and have our best gear reduced to ornaments as to not lose it,no I do not agree.This whole fugitive thing stinks,and I for one am going to wear my best gear when I fight.If I become red and I lose it,then so be it.The gear is of no value what so ever sitting safely in our stashes,it makes a difference when we USE it,and that is what I am planning to do,fugitive system or not.

    Edit:
    They are going to fuck up this game big time with their stupid notion to bring fairness for the whiners that don't like to be ganked.Those who don't like to get ganked should move to a fucking RP server.The rest of us KNOW the consequences of playing on a PvP (gankfest) server,thus we do not need rules and point systems to regulate who and how much we kill,or get killed.They are trying to implement a system that basically punishes you for killing people,and mark my words,it will be much easier to traverse Red fugitive status than to earn PvP lvl/rank.A truly contradictory system that will make you go crazy to stay balanced in your killings (impossible micromanagement,too much fuss).I was hoping political correctness is going to stay out of this game.Seems like the ugly PC monster is rearing its head in this game too.
    We should all speak up about this, and not let it happen, as we are the majority.We should not succumb to the whims of a more vocal(whiney) minority.
    If this becomes habit with other aspects of the game ,I am dropping online gaming once and for all,and going back to my beloved single player games,where the focus of gratification is on the player(you) and not the whiner "victims" that cry unfair everytime they get overwhelmed when they stroll into places they shouldn't.

    Note:
    I have posted above on AoC forums too.Please,those of you that want to PvP without restraints and stupid rules, make your opinion known, and LOUD on the official forums,so we can stop this before its implemented.

    Problem is always the whiners, they kill every single game, gezz...

    FUK THEM ALL Evil or Very Mad



    I can think of hundreds of ways to create punishments for gankers without breaking the game, or by making items useless, or by making ganking a totally money sink (evan more then EVE).

    Want to stop gankers? Then make a guild and ally them with the "server police" (not the guild with this name), if they are able to kill a fugitive, the fugitive would be sent to a prison dungeon, where he would have fight his way to freedom, keeping him away from ganking for like 15min or so, he would loose nothing, besides the time he would take to get out of the prison dungeon.

    And this is a simple way, yet fun and not game breaking, i can think of many other ways >.>

    Like rider said, what's the point of having epic loot, if we can't use it?

    And evan more, make the loot a pain to loose, and see how much it will be sold on the AH, the price will go +5000 times higher from the original value in a matter of weeks.

    Hurray, you can buy horses now, but you can't buy armors/weapons and you need to sink +250h grinding to get the items you lost.

    wonder how the aoe attacks will work might be exploitable doubt this game will last long for me with funcom removing the free for all servers not into playing pvp dead games tbh and pvp rules belong on a RP server on a normal pvp server punishment is provided by players as in you get ganked by a lvl 80 just call on your guild and show this mofo how it feels respawning on top of 20 of your guildies

    futhermore this system is utterly retarded if you lose gear if you gank a few dudes and they will lose nothing other then having to respawn a system like this will only work if you fix the economy and remove bind on pick up for every item in the game like instance loot (yes i mean epics) being sellable why should a system have only risk and no reward how is that a "fair" solution if they want this then fine but they need to alter the game radically and make everyone drop their best loot

    and also im sorry conker but i dont like your solution either this is a pve solution to a pvp problem and that wont keep hardcore pvp'rs interrested for long either encourage more pvp through a pvp system or not at all funcom seems to be trying to do this but fails because loot will be bound to who ever picks it up in instances which makes it a pve solution in turn

    No one has to like my sokution Razz and yes, it's 2 drastic, way 2 harsh, but it's 1 system that i played with, on the MMOFPS: Face of Mankind, you ganked a lot in there, the police faction could arrest you, you would go to prison and mine rocks to work your prison time (called penalty points in there), and the game was full pvp, no pve at all, worked quite well, so what i said, was just 1 idea, a bit more turned into the conan style.

    And uhh....not every epic item is bind on equip, i got a epic 1h sword wich isn't

    My post on AoC got locked down cause it started to get abusive.I managed to get flamed and royally pounced on by funcom forum lackeys.One of them reported me for my "abusive posts".At least somebody said that the drop will be for tradeable stuff only and most epic gear thankfully will be non-tradeable,but that was also speculation as details of the rules are yet to be known.

    Rofl, yeah, funcom is really gay about comments about their work (wich really sucks for them), it's their loss, when they see that this punishment system really sucks and it's driving away costumers, it's them who are goign to loose (just like sony is still loosing money with SWG XD)
