Are you sure this isn't really about you not having enough targets outside of town to grief? At the moment there is not enough of a player base (or other types of mobs) to make this call. Once we get closer to launch we will have a better idea of what type of pressure will be on these spawns...

What you are really saying is that you are not finding enough targets outside of town to grief. It's ok top admit it. Griefing is part of the game. Not a part I'd generally participate in, but the game needs bad guys too. You just need the courage to admit it. Of course, I'd then point...

Exactly. Yes it was frustrating to find out that my stabled pets were clear across the map. Some I moved back, others were left. But they're all dead mounts walking anyway. There is a very annoying issue right now with mounts crossing over node lines and another with loot bags dropping...

That makes no sense. Are they going to make it so a mounted player cannot hit their own horse, with either bow or melee weapon? Are they going to remove the ability to damage other player mounts while mounted, regardless of the damage type? What about removing stam regeneration of the horse...

95% of the PvP is happening right outside town because there is no keeps/houses in the real world. PvP happens where people congregate. There is quite a bit of ganking happening in various places on the map though, often with loot left on the corpse because players want the kill more than the...

And Mounted Melee < Mounted Casting < Mounted Archery Mounted combat has always been tough to balance in games, same for calculating fall damage for horses. For MO2 what is needed is effected melee combat weapons against mounts, such as pikes. LiF never got that balance right, but then to be...

Not true. If this was true than you couldn't purchase donate for multiple clients in your SV account. Having to authenticate through Steam makes it very difficult (ie - discouraged) to actively play multiple accounts at the same time, but that is different than having multiple accounts.

I've never understood the mentality of folks who commit actions that drive players away. Then again, this is still a beta, so such actions will actually make the game better in the long run as SV adds content. My understanding is that reputation/murder count changes are being worked on, and...

For the same reasons people buy expensive vehicles. For the joy of it.

As a West Coast player whose only available high speed connection is DSL with 3.5 down and .65 up, the ping impact is real. That said, the game is also fun. You should base your decision on whether to play or not based on game content, not on the distance to the server.

ROFL - Thanks! A short quip for those not inclined to follow the above link

Well said - all of it. For everyone else trying to define every conceivable variant, you'll have to define morality in the real world first. Good luck with that.

And when some random player comes along and does something and is killed for it, then denies they had committed any such actions how does the 'real ARPK' guilds plan to deliver said judgement? I strongly suspect that once the full factional systems come into play, the MO1 labels of RPK and...

Completely agree. Bugs will always exist and I think SV has been doing a pretty good job on squashing them. Which is why I was curious as to how much content (percentage wise) folks would want in before a persistence launch.

Weren't there portable tools/machines in MO1? Has there been any word of them reappearing in MO2?

I would guess that at the moment the dev team is still analyzing all the data from the stress test, including looking for ways some 'testers' had found to exploit existing systems and comparing that data against reports filed by legitimate testers/players. From a content perspective, I had...

Perhaps I heard it wrong, but I thought Henrik mentioned in a previous broadcast that territory control would be different this time around. I took that to mean that guards could not be removed. I'm probably not remembering that correctly though. Guess time will tell.

No, it is south of Vada, in the valley, against the north mountain range.

That statement implies that I am the one championing the one character per account policy. I don't know where you got that idea, as I clearly said if multiple characters were allowed per account, I would play multiple characters. What I said was that "everyone will be reliant on intra and...

That's how life works. 'Fairness' and a 'level playing field' is a fantasy. Someone is always going to have an edge in a game over someone else, whether its being closer to the server, having faster reaction skills, or more loyal, dedicated guild mates. The purpose for having one character...
