Hello
I played AOC some abort 2 years on PVP Server. When I was playing I hated to things:
1. Fancom politic with PVPers. No new minis, instances. stupid system that you need play PVE for OP gear to PVP. You need to play thousand of hours (melee class for example (not sin)) to be PVP level 5 and will not be so easy to kill (PVP cloths) and have fun from minis or open world PVP. Quite huge disbalance of classes. Still very hard accessible rocks in JS – exploited every time by noobs (for example wrangling Edit by Anzu: gorge it is )
2. Fancom politic with cheaters. For proven cheats (not exploit) should be baan forever eventually one warning baan for month.
I gave second chance to AOC because I got mail about big pvp patch and “big changes”. I thought that they gave us next stupid boss for pvp points or new mixtures or some other absurdly trash. I was so surprised that they changed at least PVP weapons and gear for more comprehensive to PVE. And they created low PVP gear far more useful that now even with PVP3 (easy to become) you can be good player on battlefield (I’m very happy even I haven’t char with lower PVP level than 6) Wow, at least dreams came true. Still some little changes needed (for example 1h swords – I have some T4 with 128DPS but best PVP 1h sword have 123DPS). By the way I don’t understand the idea that for example DT PVP T2 have little more armor than PVP T3. For me this change is a milestone step forward in AOC PVP. Great job.
Second thing they gave us is not new minis but quite enjoyable and good revarded PVP quest to force open world PVP. Great idea I love it. Also there are some new events one weak in a month if I’m correct (haven’t played them yet). All this changes are greate. Need to be upgraded but are also grate job.
They changed also some think in classes. I feel now less difference between classes. Still there are differences but not so huge and it’s next step forward.
About cheaters I haven’t spotted any but maybe they just went to Crome. We will see in future.
I’m happily surprised with so much great changes in AOC PVP – great job keep going.
There is also one thing which don’t need super hard work. On PVP servers (Fury and Rage) population is lot bigger than 3 months ago but this servers still needed to be more populated. In my opinion there is one very good and profitable solution to make it. Please just give possibility to one free transfer to PVP server for every premium account or for all. It could cause in future that people will bring via payable transfer more chars to PVP servers. That move will be successful only when done fast. Every new events are most interesting on beginning and if not enough populated they can die.
