Long time ago I played on a RP extensive server.It was good for me until people started to create improbable and sometimes impossible scenarios in order to gain an advantage. We constantly had to redefine the RP rules because RP empowered people would always find a way around them for personal gain. At the end of the day, the server staff often felt that they finished a 2nd shift at work, instead of having a good time flying their ship and actually role playing. But... this happened long ago, on…

Example 1:I log in the game and I am in the mood for PVPs. I set course for Arena, I reach the Arena system and I wait > 1hr for other guys to join me in PVPs.Example 2:I log in the game and I am in the mood for PVPs. I set course for Arena and along the way I mess with other people - tax, kill, etc... I eventually end up with a bounty on my head and with Police and/or Mercs chasing me. I reach Arena system and I sit there > 1 hour waiting for other guys to join me in PVPs.Example 3:I log in the…

Thanks for picking on it, Wanderer. I will elaborate on #3 and #1.#3What if I have no clue that I am being chased as my pursuer, for obvious reasons, doesn't state his/hers intention.All I know is that someone placed a bounty on my ass. In this I must avoid Arena and postpone my mood for PVP till either expires or someone tries to claim it ?#1Things get complicated if I am a known criminal or a police officer.(Quote from the Elder Scrolls of CF Role Play Rules - Police and Pirate Licenses)By cam…

Before steering the crap hole further...We all know that the Arena topic was raised far too often both in game and in forum/tickets.The purpose of my 3 examples I used in my previous post was not fueled by hatred or a need to complain.On the contrary - I reignited the Arena subject with those examples (and my subsequent posts), because, contrary to what Martind says: "Current rules are simple in this to avoid all kind of possible personal problems/excuses and discussions between players and serv…

I moved the content of this post to the poll post on next page, for a better visibility.

(Merged content) Please carefully read the options below before voting.I've reread all of the posts since the hate talk started, and there are actually only 5 proposed changes to the current Arena rule set.Also, it's unfair to slam OP for not magically fixing our problem as long as we are not 100% ready to break this problem into pieces and come up with the best outcome for all players - both those who want to just PVP and those who want to RP.So, allow me to exert my uh... secretary skills, and…

(Quote from Martind Forlon)This could be the answer for one of the proposed solutions to the clan systems and bases problem.As for the global AFK kicker...(Quote from Apache)I agree with Apache. However, maybe the AFK kick can happen on all other areas except the repair buoys ?

A'right, the topics in this thread start to multiply, and this is good, but keeping track of all of them in the same thread usually leads to stuff being omitted.So, I would like to conclude the Arena/The Hive/Colosseum so we have one less to worry about.Seems that most votes so far are on (Option #4) Let Arena an PVP and Event only system. Further discussions suggested that this option is better when complemented by (Option #3) Add AFK timer in Arena AND by some CF hook modifications that preven…

...not to mention that the sound quality is better.

guenni7StarCraft BW -> Remastered. This game still has it's own e-sport competition and even though it's main-streaming in South Korea, during the past 2 years the international interest for this game has grown (almost) exponentially. Age of Empires 2 - HD / RemasteredThe e-sport scene is not developed as in SC-BW's case, but there are still international competitions with nice prizes and loads of community love for it.Diablo 2 LODNumerous mods out there that either improved the game based on p…

Hmm... arbitrary role-play.This kind of thing can tilt the power in Sirius in a specific direction, with unwanted consequences - especially now when there aren't plenty of players around. But on the other hand, if it's done carefully it can balance things out.Having that in mind, the only thing that I am curious about is... how much political and military awareness must a merc and/or a merc clan have before deciding what faction to play next ? IMO is tricky, but fun and could lead to uh ... few …
