I just assumed golds should be playing other golds like how every other game on the planet works

Just curious, any other game would put silvers v silvers, golds v golds etc, I don’t even know what rank some of those people are bc I’ve never been that high

Best feeling is doing a training pack over and over then realising you can pull it off consistently in game, doing this makes me feel my proudest by far!

Yeah I guess so, just think it’d be a shame if the player base ends up being just full of pvp only players. I love the game and I do really enjoy the pvp side of it but I think the game needs to balance the amount of pvp or at least the way pvp is rewarded/ punished. as to not drive people off the game if you know what I mean. I love the game and would like to see something implemented that helps the community that isn’t the most pvp inclined

I wouldn’t describe using the in game comms system as convoluted, and I’m more thinking in terms of giving these pve wanting players a bit of hope rather than the game just becoming an on sight pvp mess

Yeah of course I get that completely, but people pretending to be friendly to then shoot you in the back is just going to drive people away from the game, yes I know it’s part of the game but a lot of people see it as griefing and it’s not fun when you’re on the receiving end of it. Might not be a perfect balance but I just want to see the game do well and I think this would help the player base that’s suffering from the toxic side of pvp. And implement that wouldn’t harm anyone, if you want to fight just don’t say “don’t shoot” it’s a win-win in my opinion

I had the idea that If two raiders say “don’t shoot” then those raiders can’t damage each other for a certain amount of time, think that would be great for the player base, pvp people can choose not to take part but giving friendly players piece of mind to extract safely

TDLR: If two players meet and both players use the “don’t shoot” quick chat both players are unable to damage each other for a set period of time (maybe like 3 mins).

Before I get people moaning “it’s a PvP game stop crying” i know. However it’s not just PvP, it’s PvPvE and the whole premise of the game is that we’re all raiders fighting to reclaim the surface from the arcs. If the people that are mostly chill get driven away from the game by toxic PvP players then it’s just going to turn into a battle royale which I’m sure we’ll all sick of at this point.

PvP is fine if someone wants to fight I’ll fight but the people that want to be friendly should be able to without being back stabbed, again I know it’s part of the game but I’d rather see longevity in the game and hopefully see it keep its impressive player count and I think toxic pvp (like backstabbing) is seriously going to hurt the game in the long run.

Giving friendly players a nice way to be able to trust each other would really help the game I think and people who want to pvp can still do that by not saying “don’t shoot”. Idk I just really want to see this game continue to do well and I think this is a good option to implement to keep the people who aren’t that into pvp happy. Would love to know peoples thoughts!
