oh gosh.. making merc into a pure pvp server..
gues we'll get a char transfer thing there again tho ? for people from other servers who want to go to merc. and esp for people for merc who want to play normally and go to terra / mars. outfitter = t3h win. item tracking.. well would say about time but thats negative. but good that its finally working.

Seems merc will be 'gank' rather than PvP though....

I love you long time...
Edit: The following item types are being tracked: * Weapons, PSI modules, implants and tools over TL 80 You know how pissed I was when my Blessed hybrids QB was gone when I loged in one day?? All of those spells were under tl 65 but they are what the most power full solo class in the game uses... I say track ALL psi stuff and only guns TL 50 and over.

just crossed my mind to. but all those 20 uber gankers that keep asking for it ( even if half of em is banned nowadays ) will have their server without qb and drop only and god knows what. lucky i haven't leveled my merc char that far now no use to it lol. no savezones well at least there is still your app. but leveling will be next to impossible imho. tho i gues you still have LE don't see that taken out. tradeskillers will have some fun to without savezones to work in. never was my kind of idea glad they fuxing a german server up not terra ;x @ Tostino they never liked hybs get used to it  nah i think they took this sollution because tracking everything would make the database and server load huge. at least that was the reason i heard. they just don't have the resoures to check everything.

yeah i dont think i'm gonna play merc as a main server, it would just be so frustrating as barely anybody is gonna risk running solo there, its just gonna be big gank squads with mega ppuage
if it were a 1 slot server i would probally make a char there though, wouldnt be so many ppus so some intense skill based fighting with real risks involved should be fun it looks pretty good though, im sure mercury will bring back some people who have quit |

If I were still a member of a decent sized clan, there was still a safe slot and it was one char, I might consider it, might even move DJ there if I could, but as it stands, DJ is going nowhere.

Biggest news for Neocron in 2 years. Nice one KK. Even if it screws everything, changing things stirs up people and keeps the game alive.
Two specifics: Rokkwear! Holy Fucking Christ, excuse my French but thats great news, please tell me you can actually zone now with custom appearances? And does it affect powerarmour too? PvP Server...hmm. Well I can see this doing two things. 1) Mass popularity and eventually everyone will move there for the action and combination of Ger/Int community. 2) Pkers will be rampant and no real levelling or community will remain. The server could become deserted. Still, I applaud you trying something different with the game, and look forward to the many threads this announcement will generate! ps can you forcibly move characters to Mercury if the whole of Terra votes it? A true punishment for repeated ally pk!

I still would prefer actual clothes to rokkwear, like another set of slots in the armour window, but maybe that's something for the future.
DJ needs to get out of the MC5 grey suit she has been wearing since NC2 started, and she is a bit wiffy.

[COLOR=Red]Are you guys drunk?[/COLOR] /me waves goodbye to Terra. PvP Server = Good Using an existing server = Bad - Everyone who already has 4 capped chars there will be at a HUGE advantage. - Everyone trying to level on Mercury now will be insta-ganked in every zone and lose items like mad, making it not worth the aggravation. - Now couple it with a multi-slot server, EVERYONE will have a PPU just like Terra. - Now couple it with fast-rising Soullight, EVERYONE will be allied ganking, even in HQs. A PvP Server should be a Single-Slot, FRESH server that doesn't have 10,000 PPUs - this is just a bad idea. I'm dead serious, HORRIBLE idea. If this is truly a PvP server, up the exp gain, up the rarepart drops, and make it two slots (there will need to be Tradeskillers). Don't make people waste their time leveling on a server that is PvP based and not PvM and that will have pretty much no community like the rest of the servers. I really hope you're listening here...  ## EDIT ## I hope you're removing Para from the guards as well and reducing the number of them - cities should be raidable to encourage PvP. Quote:
Hope to see something rivaling VotR's site [/COLOR]

A great read there. Though I do agree with FN when he says that a PvP-only server should be a brand-new server, instead of using Mercury, if only to eliminate the unfair advantage that players currently on Mercury will have (capped chars, full set of rares/epic items, complete PvP setups).

So, anything that isn't a chair, then?  But it is good that everything expensive is being tracked, so ppl can get them back if they lose them to a inventory bugLast edited by Tidus_Origin : 09-06-05 at 18:37. |
