Ryzom Ring - First Run

[iphdrunk]

out of curiosity, is it possible to do PvP scenarios ? (Zones ?) Like choose sides and fight etc.

it's been officially stated by Marjo in Aniro's fora that PvP / FvF will not be possible in the first Ring release (lack of "Forum watch" I allow myself to forward the post). This does not preclude other competitions like "find the treasure" tho.

When you say FvF isn't allowed, do you mean the style of PvP like Ep2 where the whole zone was PvP or do you also mean that we can't turn on our faction PvP flags and use that type of PvP?

I can see that, without support from the Ring, the first kind wouldn't be possible but the other type shouldn't be different from the main world, should it?

Also, I noticed one of the Forest maps had an arena in it. Any tried it to see if it's a PvP arena?

Sorry, I can't elaborate further here's the post

d'une maniere bcp plus générale , sera t'il possible de créer des zones pvp dans le ring?
Non, pas au début. Nous avons l'intention de permettre le PvP sur les cartes, mais la fonctionnalité ne sera pas prête à la sortie du Ring. Elle fait cependant partie de notre liste d'ajouts à faire et il est prévu qu'elle arrive plus tard.


is it possible to create an "arena" and have inter-shard competitions?
(...) in general terms, can we create PvP zones in the ring?

No, not at the beginning. We do have plans to implement PvP on the maps, but this feature / functionality is no ready for release. It is, tho, included in the "to do" list and we do plan to release it later.
--------------------------------
although that said, I wonder what would be needed to enable FvF tag-based PvP.. I guessed the tags where independant of location.

Regarding that mad mektoub someone asked about, I think you can have it attack NPCs. A way to make it special can be to make it a miniboss or the like, with a very high level. However, if you still wish for more HP, Adventure Masters have a HP boost button, which basically heals the creature. This feature can be used on mobs and npc, not sure on players lol

Just a reminder, I popped into the English Community page and there's a new public forum dedicated to the Ring.

No; the PvP ability itself isn't enabled. You can't use your faction tag, nor can you engage in duel. Enabling PvP is in our list of features to add after the Ring release (along with a more complex NPC dialogue system btw).

Also, I noticed one of the Forest maps had an arena in it. Any tried it to see if it's a PvP arena?

It is not, as PvP isn't enabled yet. In the meantime, the arena ca be used to scenarize NPC fights or why not, PvE fights.

Thanks for the reply. It's not a huge issue; there's lots to play with even without pvp being available.
