Excuse me Mr Moderator, but the block feature is detrimental to my forum experience.

People shouldn't be allowed to hide from my presence, it's not how the Devs want us to use the forums.
I suggest that all my posts are quoted to bypass the block, as it is not fair someone can hide from me.
The forums should be remade without the block function, ghosting on the forums is wrong.

Am I doing this right?

:D :D :D
 
Guess time will tell wont it?

Your entire point is predicated on your assumption of imbalance. Truth is that you simply refuse to engage in established mechanics. Solo balances solo for PP. If it doesn’t, it’s because your faction is either weaker than the attacker or you are unwilling to engage in established counters. But you would rather be engage in direct PvP to fend off the attack. And your only narrow scoped opinion is to force Open play to get what you want. Non of that is wrong. It’s the reason that you’re going to quit after Q4. The vast majority of people don’t want to play like you do. As evidenced by their choice to play in modes other than Open.

Yeah it certainly will, bear this in mind though 90's, these are pretty fundamental changes your Nostradamus Spidey sense has foreseen and you made the rather silly claim about walking away in what? - 9 months from now if they aren't implemented. What would you call a reasonable amount of notice from Frontier on such drastic changes 90's? - 2 months?, 3?, maybe 6? Honestly 90's, in my opinon if you haven't heard anything on these mammoth changes by August or September you may as well start packing mate cos they ain't coming.

Welp we got lots of Focused feedback coming our way soon. Ed was talking about it towards the end of one of his streams. Saying how lots of stuff are going to change. The way he said it; it was almost like a preemptive cushion for some big news. I hope this is it.

Gawd, have you not seen the results after some of Frontier's previous 'big news' and 'big announcements' 90's?, I appreciate the sentiment of wanting a leopard to change it's spots though, no matter how futile it may seem.

There is only so many times they can miss a target before they git gud and start hitting the target.

Honestly is about transition. Seeds planted like Multicrew and Wings. Instances and engagements.

Look at all the awesome thargoid type dungeon stuff we had. WoW started out like this too. Baby steps man. This game has a long time to go. And plenty and I MEAN PLENTY of room to grow. Landing on planets and so on. Stuff that never existed in the beginning. Now that we have those things. They can expand on them.

Its literally like a seed and flower. Watch it bloom.

Theres no reason we all cant get what we want out of this. Know what I mean?

You want what happened to Star Wars Galaxies... you want the core game gone to be replaced with the "New Game Enhancement". And it rang the death knell of the game... but you don't care because you have your play style and you want it even at the detriment to the game itself.

There's no reason we can't all get something - I agree with that, but let's try not to tread on too many peoples toes along the way eh? I don't envy Frontier, they have the loud, focused feedback minority PVP'ers in one corner wanting a, b and c and the less organised and quieter PVE majority in the other wanting x, y and z, they have to tread a very, very careful path.
 
So educate me. Are there ANY ways to counter PP/BGS manipulations of players in PG/solo OTHER THAN direct pew pew PvP?

Since it’s yes, why don’t you like engaging in that playstyle?

I have and do. And like many many others complain about its mundane and tiresome. A lot of people cant wait to pull their guns out.

Remember and try this quote out for size.

It is I who will have the last laugh.

Put that on a post it note and dont forget it.

You haven't put forward any credible evidence that significant change is coming. Sure, PvP will probably get some tweaks over the year, and I have no problems with that. But as someone that enjoys solo and has absolutely no PvP interest at all, I have no fear at all that FD are going to screw me over and make my game irrelevant any time soon.

As others have tried to point out, FD are not going to abandon their design and go head first into turning the game into a PvP experience just to please a very small minority. If you keep clinging to that hope, disappointment is coming your way.

or yours/theirs. I dunno, you could be happy with it.

So true Mouse, I am struggling to think of a game that made such absolutely fundamental changes that resulted in a long term gain for said game. Even the changes to UO that occurred had a massive detrimental effect to, ironically, mainly the PVP community of it, be careful what you wish for applies here I think.
