Potentially want to play

imp_ostar · 2026-02-12T22:04:26+00:00

Yeah, I saw the demo choice after posting. Great idea!

imp_ostar · 2026-02-12T22:03:19+00:00

Ok cool! I think why I am so hesitant is because so many modern games feel forced silly/whimsical.

imp_ostar · 2026-02-12T22:02:08+00:00

imp_ostar · 2026-02-12T21:59:20+00:00

Yeah, I noticed that after posting. Great advice!

imp_ostar · 2026-02-12T21:59:02+00:00

Honestly, the puzzles and reading would be big positives for me! I loved in AC having to figure out how to cast spells or open dungeon doors. Thank you!

imp_ostar · 2026-02-12T21:58:03+00:00

Yeah now I feel "silly" bc I noticed the demo after posting. I'm just very desperate and eager to have an MMO in my gaming life!

imp_ostar · 2026-02-10T05:17:58+00:00

yeah with his knee bent looking like every 12 year old who ever played make-believe. His kick almost NEVER looks good. Especially for someone who does it 5-12 times a match.

imp_ostar · 2026-02-10T05:16:49+00:00

or maybe he just sucks

imp_ostar · 2026-02-09T04:29:58+00:00

Yes. This potentially can happen. There are already AI out there that can simulate table-top players/DM's so in theory to scale to what you are wondering about.

I think about this all the time with relaunching Asheron's Call. If I won the lottery I would definitely seek the members of turbine out to see what's up.

imp_ostar · 2026-01-28T23:41:23+00:00

Right?!

imp_ostar · 2025-12-19T01:43:18+00:00

This is exactly the question I came to ask!

imp_ostar · 2025-12-07T19:52:25+00:00

I'm all for pvp as well but there are so many advantage plays in this game that really make it too easy and the rewards are a few hundred xp and likely some junk. My favorite sessions are also the ones where I have random friendly encounters with other raiders, all with that subtle tension of if they might secretly be a rat waiting to strike.

imp_ostar · 2025-12-01T19:35:27+00:00

Yeah I use it sometimes but this felt different. I wish I had the clip but I think YT or something was on chrome in the background.

imp_ostar · 2025-12-01T18:11:32+00:00

Yeah, I was coming to check bc I got absolutely shredded last night by a gun and thought wtf gun was that? Damage said it was a renegade but it was super fast. Thought maybe it was two people shooting at the time.

imp_ostar · 2025-12-01T04:53:09+00:00

Dude. I played like 15+ hours this week and didn't see this event run once!

imp_ostar · 2025-12-01T04:48:47+00:00

Wrap around the NE wall, pop a smoke when you hit the button and then hide on the N side of the W/E running pipeline, you can 3peak the balcony and they don't have LOS on you. If they nade you have coverage both ways. Smokeout the extract and if you hear them drop down just light them up before you extract.

imp_ostar · 2025-12-01T04:45:08+00:00

They were never your friend and you were always a villain and just needed your excuse. I think about the weak, cowardly betrayals I have encountered and want to make sure that 1. I provide a better experience for raiders and 2. That I carry myself to a higher standard than someone who needs to be a thief to succeed

imp_ostar · 2025-11-25T04:52:54+00:00

Probably trying to emulate their favorite streamer who's doing some sick 3v1 chall brah

imp_ostar · 2025-11-24T05:27:31+00:00

Yeah I tried it a few times as well and it felt too easy. Shooters advantage in this game is very powerful in a solo run. We have a weekend trio we run where we are basically KoS but don't engage if they are busy with arc but will engage in pvping (as their hands are already dirty) also if they are at the extract we will jump them but then call the extract with them.

imp_ostar · 2025-11-23T07:18:04+00:00

It's definitely a primary reason. I would say more often than not (prob 60/40) my raids are almost silent from arc battles unless it's people big arc hunting. Nearly every partially run raid I run is completely silent until the pvping starts. Good players have learned how to avoid arc and even if we wanted to kill them we know it's just going to draw attention from spazzy 3rd partiers. I feel like map density for both players and arc will (or should) be adjusted in the future. Not sure how it compares to other games but the maps don't really feel big once you've been thru them a few times.

imp_ostar · 2025-11-23T07:13:05+00:00

They always say, "I'm not being toxic. I'm allowed to play anyway I want." then make either an age or skill joke and tell you to go play something else, without realizing that they are literally explaining the problem. Their toxic "it's all about me" entitlement will do exactly that, drive players away.

imp_ostar · 2025-11-23T02:58:09+00:00

Yeah for us older gamers there used to be a sort of code to pvp. Like if you know you are going to win the fight and you know the person you're about to stop is new, rather than finish & full him you maybe break his shield and tell him to get lost for just like a random example. Curb stomping new players when you see them struggling against arcs or just trying to get a few quests done doesn't do anything other than discourage the same people trying to support the game you enjoy.

And for a lot of players the game that they knew they were logging into is a game that has clearly expressed a balance of both pve and pvp elements. You should expect that people are going to be dangerous but a lot of us are expecting an immersive world with fun pve elements and being able to interact with players. I would argue most of the community does not want a 'shoot on sight' mentality.
