Closed Beta Test 4 – Patch Notes and Server Opening Times

  • Great changes. 0 inf. points for near levels is very good everyone would be happy with this i think. (except severel ppl we dont wanna talk about :D )


    I just have 2 questions:


    1. Are you losing points at the same rate while offline ( 1/5min), or are you at all?
    2. OMG i dont remember my 2nd question


    Anyway Looking forward for trying out the new system.


    PS also although i will hate it the ch. change cool down is a good thing in my opinion, despite the fact i loved exploiting it.

  • Why everyone wants to be able to see player's level before attacking? I think that it's pretty lame and I hope it WON'T be implemented. It would be shame otherwise.

    Doing this would be messing with the free will of the game. Since you are allowed to pvp EVERYWHERE outside safezones, why you pvp near them??
    Thats just playing dumb


    Because some PKers are low enough that they are near them so they are able to run there, when they start losing?
    How could preventing that, mess with free will?

  • Meelkor it's not about pkers seeing who there ganking it's about being able to decide should I stay or run as the pk'ed as far as I'm concerned.Not gonna hang around if it's a sad Untalented 32 thinking there tough killing lvl15s wouldn't want to enlarge there rather sad little e peens.

  • @Bhuta: Yeah, your argument is valid.
    That was just my opinion that I really think it's better this way.

  • Quote from IceD;1137526

    It might discourage plenty of people from PvP, since there is no way to make a clear distinction between various players, and I don't want to "Inspect" them every single time when I'll want to fight with someone.


    You can hold "E" button in, and click with Left Mouse button, when you are targeting another player. And you will then get him into your "focus"/"target". So you can see his/her level. I used this in cb2 and cb3 and it works fine. As long as you can point your crosshair onto the target. Just hold E, click left mouse and you see level. Works pretty quick.

  • Nice to know that. Thanks.

  • what you gonna do with those, who come to mass pvp's (for example outside of velika) on 11lvl alt, he'll mess in mass and you'll kill him with AOE attack w/o even notice him?

  • Oh my god, this is so sad.


    NA had those changes in CBT 3 which was 3 weeks ago (hell you still don't even manage to get us the 1 week old patches lol), we were ok with being 3 weeks behind because we said "hehe, now the Americans are gonna be our guinea pigs", but the pvp stuff/channel switch stuff failed horribly on NA CBT 3 already. Yet you learned nothing from this and implement exactly the same shit. Why?


    Frogster, I am more then disappointed, I am ashamed. How can you call yourself a German company while doing such a poor job? All we expect is some mediocre work - get tera eu area license, rent&run servers, do very few changes to the game and provide a minimum of customer support. Don't even manage that. Sad, just sad.

    As far as i'm guessing you only get the infamous points when you PK someone and not during normal PvP.

    Did you read what I wrote? I'm mad because they implement stuff that has been proven worthless, even counterproductive. And even with that they are 2 weeks late.

    In all your texture its nothing but crying over later patch and that frogster do bad work. O yea sorry like 10 words about channels switch. Instead of just beeing mad give better feedback. And please please please understand ITS BETA. Its not like its the first time Eu comes after NA :)

  • Nice changes.


    I don't fully understand the values of infamy points though. I mean, I understand them but I think the cool down is way too long. It should be like a point a minute or something.

  • Quote from fadasma;1136872

    Getting infamy points when PKing lower level chars is fine, as long as you know your victims level! moreover when you get killed by another PC, infamy points should be reduced by...


    The 5 sec for switching channels was much needed.


    Lets have a great cbt4 ^^

    First I think that it's safe to assume that if you are pking in low level zones ppl around you are more than 5 levels below you. As for reducing it while being killed by another player it would result in simple pattern. Take you friend of your own level, find some place near some respawn and let your friend kill you several times. No penalty for either of you. Ofc there could be put limits such as single character can reduce your infamy by limited amount of points but then this would eventually result in more boredom for some and for others it would be just the same as system introduced in it's current shape.

  • I like every change. However they should tweak a little bit the channel change bcz u can still change when in combat and that is bs.

    I'm not crying, I'm criticizing. And instead of just trying to annoy me think for a second. There have been dozens of threads about those NA cbt 3 changes on eme forums, and many people (including me) have also written about it in the forums here. Would it really be any good to repeat the same thing again, and again, and again? People that have been following the beta progress on both sides (and that is something I expect of the Frogster employees responsible for patches) know what I'm talking about. So excuse me, but I won't write another review just because you're too lazy to check eme forums.

  • sounds like good to me, though the amount of infamy points needs some tweaking imo.. Yet if you keep things like that, players making their OWN justice without having to drop items (would be something I'd cancel my sub RIGHT away for me, I'm not willing to play lineage 2) then who cares, I plan to go outlaw, even kill greys if they stole my alt mobs or whatever and assume the consequences, it's all the fun part, and I hope the whole political system will help to regulate everything properly
    as for the channels it's good you add 5 secs, could be even 10, but make it so that you can't switch in combat that's pretty lame honestly
