Fun on the Hardcore Server

Print Post  
We play this game because we have a lot of friends in here and we are not always looking for items or PLs, sometimes we log in to do daily quests just to help novices learn about optimization, positioning and even using certain weapons and items for them, to help.  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

And so it has been so far ...
Most casual gamers are the strongest on the server with more than one character containing all past lifes and for years and years we have asked developers to fix some bugs into their game. But to our surprise they have more important goals like modifying consolidated experiment rules who noone cares or even creating new bugs.

Since playing daily quests doesn't give me more exp, as a personal option I will not carry more "deadweight" quests and found a new hobby to teach new players how this game works.

This Hobby is quite simple, we just log into the Hardcore server and kill as many players as we can using the rules or even dead traps to see the "kids cry".

So let's start the Games:
I just abuse the "Fleshen the air" open boxes room and a gxbow to call all of them at the same time. after that just use the bug they don't fix for years to fast recall and let the trogs kill everyone in the party.
My kill count doing that reach 107 players this morning.

If you can roll it you can smoke it.  If you can carve it you can smoke with it.

Getting tripped out of the starting gate is easy to recover from.  Getting tripped when you can see the finish line is what's devastating.

Up your weak game before you brag about it.

Dumbasses:   This game community is bleeding players.  The game is dead.   Pugging is Dead.  The LFM panel is dead.   Everyone solos or runs with channles/guildies they know really well.

Also Dumbassess:  I know.  Let's go grief the fuck out of the community and make nobody want to PUG or put up or join LFM's with randoms.

Meh, it's just the hardcore server. In fact, these type of actions might get some people back to the regular servers. From what I hear, they are pretty dead.

Let's cause death on a server where death means you lose the character and all its gear for the remainder of 90 days and have to start over from scratch.

That's better than fucking with people on regular servers where death means you get raised, have a laugh, and maybe lose 10% on the quest.  Worse case you start the quest over?  The max cost is 2-3 min of time.

This is real life equivalent is sitting in a movie theater and shouting spoilers for the ending in the first 5 minutes and talking and laughing really loud and shining your phone flashlight in peoples eyes and throwing popcorn at the other movie goers because you have some kind of beef with the snack counter and ticketing crew.  Quit being a dick to a bunch of people who just want to enjoy the movie.  Nobody thinks you are cool.

Nihilism is alive and well in DDO...for now.
  

Do not try the patience of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.

We are dreamers, shapers, singers, and makers. We study the mysteries of laser and circuit, crystal and scanner, holographic demons and invocation of equations. These are the tools we employ, and we know many things.

The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

The difference is that in real life I can get up and slap the shit out of the guy.  And where I live I would get a medal for it.

Exactly.  I have zero respect for ITG's who think they are cool from the safety of their keyboard.   Anon pussies of the first order.

Honestly, that is why I hated the other MMOs was all the griefing / camping.

This is what I expected along with the pay-to-win when you have leaderboards (which they abandoned a long time ago). 

New crew (Hey, quit calling us Turbine - we are smarter devs then those guys!), same old issues.  Patch releases keep reintroducing old bugs. People who didn't play PnP developing and copying other MMOs (but they will never be as good in those aspects so quit trying to copy them by tacking onto the spaghetti code). How about they just forge down the PnP road which no one else does and keep your uniqueness (well, actually fix bugs would be the top improvement).

I enjoy the PnP aspect of unique classes and grouping.  I see them killing it. Just like they are trying to make all characters exactly the same. Loss of uniqueness.

Since they never learn, I do expect them to try merging servers again and causing database issues as well as the number of characters each person has to maintain(who hasn't created 10 characters per server?)


As for the servers being dead, this new server is like them releasing new content: The early 2 weeks are the massive amount of people trying to be first to accomplish something. It will die down.



If anything, I would also bring back the XP penalty for death. I was disappointed it got removed (just like your soul could be cursed until your death - until you got it cured / drank a pot).

Current XP Penalty: 100%.  Your character is dead and gone.

Pay to repeat the same raid content 15 years later because you weren't in a guild that could do that content while it was still progression.  No thanks.

Good luck finding and keeping 8 tanks for the Four Horsmen in Naxx when you eventually get there.  That boss fight caused more guild hopping and destroyed more guilds than any boss in WoW history.

At least it's not dead like DDO. Every server is full, in both classic and reg. What's is like seeing 10 people logged in with DDO?
