Just waking everyone up to the fact you all are misstating the fact the game never planned PvP... And that is how I found that info...

dont quote me on this but back then didnt DCC and the game box say that outposts were available at release. there would be music composing skill trees, children, etc, etc. For the latest news on upcoming features i look toward the likes of Jess's latest posts, seems i was mistaken

but you had to dig and dig for it rather than find it as a selling point on the box or in the manual.

The problem is that an old interview article most people didn't read before buying the game is becoming a major feature before the selling points on the box and in the manual. Some people call it "False advertising", I simply call it that Nevrax has lost sight of their vision that could make this game great and made so many people come to this game at launch even without much advertising.

Many people have been saying "Episode 2 sucks, its just PvP" and others have been saying "I love Episode 2! PvP is just what we need in this game!". My question is:

Is the new zone and the creation of the temples (followed by rewards at the end) all there is to Ep2? Or is there something more... most of the comments on the forums these days are acting like this fvf stuff is the be all and end all of Ep2 - are they right?

*nods*

It has indeed become a bit messy. I'll go through the thread tomorrow, collect all recent questions and post a new thread afterwards.

After seening the last update on FvF , right now im totaly lost for words....

Im mean it almost a good ide but in the worse time ever.

Does any of our thoughts reach the devs at all????

So i ask you Xavier and Jessica...

Question 1

What do you decide what inportent to tell devs and what do you feel is not?

Question 2

As you can't talk about any thing what is related to the games future, can you at least expalain why you can't talk about it? do you have some rules here what probides you to do so?

Reading Jessica's interview at MMORPG I would say this question is too loose. Crafters are quoted as being a non-PvP element of outposts but in practice they are not. The ability of crafters to gain access to thier element is only available if they or a significant portion of their guild on their behalf wish to expose themselves to PvP, to me that does not make the crafting non-PvP. I would worry that an answer to the question above could easily be yes but when revealed would leave you feeling misled and let down.

Interestingly in the same interview Jessica points put the problem of communication with the devs. Its seems to me that the same problem exists in spades when it comes to Nevrax communicating its vision of what it plans to players.

FYI - Upon request, a fresh new thread for our next Q&A round. All questions from this thread have been processed and passed on to Nevrax respectively.
