I would like to help create a line of communication between top pvp companies and the dev team. I would like civil and productive conversations to be had by players and devs

So very true!

:+1:

thats not right considering the multitudes of pvp players that chant nerf posts. Pvp nerfs bleeding over into pve gameplay making the game less fun. Really a pvp only hotline directly to the ear of ags would be catastrofic.
Pvp platers cant even agree on what kind of balance they desire within the design of allowing every weapon having its own place. Many of you want to see ranged and magic weapons removed from the game others just make a hobby out of slamming on healers. Many pvp players can only see the tree when there is an entire forest behind it. Never quite looking at the consequences of spreading vague wants in the game forums instead of well constructed thoughts that consider what implications may come from not mentioning specifics. No there are too many examples of pvp player focused feedback that convinces me that this is a terrible idea. Much of this comes from a long time stemming conclusion that ags is simply making changes to the fundamental player character stays without segrigating a player/player interaction from a player/npc interaction which the existance of both changes would at least satisfy both groups ish… But even that wont stop many players from convincing ags to nerf some gear down into a fine powder.

Lol read the post before you complain at PvPers ruining your game.

This is specifically the high end PvPers he referring too. Not the randoms who are on here complaining to nerf whatever weapon killed them that day.

We are a subset of players with a bare minimum of 2k hours in this game. We understand all the PvP and PvE modes (oh yes PvPers run m10 golds east)

We also think that the game needs balanced, we know which weapons need nerfed or a little love. We understand in which game modes each equip load and weapon load out can thrive.

pick one.

Best I can do is threads about Light armor being OP becuase I can’t catch a dex player with GA/WH in heavy :pinched_fingers:

Jokes aside tho. Such a particular channel would exists already if AGS truly wanted it to be. Now I am not saying that OP is wrong - quite the opposite. It should be a thing the moment they started loose players by hundreds of thousands.

It’s very unlikely they will have a change of heart by now, since they can’t even do a live Q&A.

And here is an example of why the forums arent listened to by the dev team.

My company is filled with people like 3k/4k plus hours and all they do is PVP and war. Imagine all the data that the devs could get from accepting the olive branch from the pvp community. Dozens of top tier companies with collectively hundreds of thousands of hours played.

Sure beats the heck out of PTR data opportunities IMO :man_shrugging:

Yes i have been rude to them. They say they are listen to the community yet seem to make a change that 85 percent of people don’t want. All through this game they have been doubling down on changes or systems they have in place that no one likes, then after thousands of players quit they go and change it, and say they are for the people. So many issues of the course of the games life spam have been complained about that go from QOL to pve and to pvp. I remember when the game came out and people were upset with how storage systems worked and trading posts and azoth fast travel and so many other issues, dungeon orbs etc, SO MANY things. And the devs would double down on it, then months later try and change it after loads of players quit. It’s been a common trend the entire year, the only change that never got to live was those self healing potions, which I was shocked, normally everything that hits the ptr goes to live even if it’s bugged to hell and reported, they still ship it. To me the ptr is just an advertisement for the next update to try to draw in players, not actually to fix bugs because idk how many times bugs get reported on ptr and never get fixed before live and then once the ptr goes live even more bugs and exploits are found. So ya my frustration with the devs has come to a tipping point. They keep making bad decision after bad decision and people keep quiting daily. So I just be as honest as can be even if it’s rude. Sometimes the truth hurts.

thing is war is just a spam fest. needs to be completely redone. not sure how individual respawn timers isnt a thing yet. games a joke since release its not fixable. props for the defenders not being able to respawn at their own flag change. The fact that was a thing in the first place says enough

Yet we all play it and hate it with love.

BUMP THIS. because some of player’s post about pvp changes are sooooo irrelevant bc they’re OPR players and not WAR players.

OPR = not real endgame pvp
WAR = real endgame pvp

AGS!!! you will get very strong feedback and it will make players happy!

defenders don’t need anymore advantages tbh.

it would just make the game make actual sense. benefits whoever plays better and slays out. makes every single kill matter instead of whoever gets lucky or listens to a 3rd party respawn timer and kills within a 10 second window. its a terrible design. its atleast 50 percent luck just going into it its absurd

changing respawn timers won’t change that. They would have to nerf sacred, get rid of 300 str grit and get rid of shirking fort for individual plays to matter again on a large scale.

everyone should have a 30+ second timer no matter what. how is it fair that one time i died i got to insta respawn and the other time i had to wait 40. No other game ever made has a respawn that works like this. There’s zero reason for it. Slay out stagger them cap the flag thats how the game should work. for the most part right now its whoever gets lucky in the last 6 minutes by face slamming their key board

its because the combat is just too clean. nothing like it. everything surrounding how it actually plays is just garbage. there is no way the people that made the game in the first place are working on it today

the 40v40 would have been a great change too

Exactly but they keep throwing everything great about it in the garbage with a smile on their face and then puzzled as to why the majority of the pvp players all quit.

When the devs openly admit to not actually playing the pvp in this game it only makes sense for them to refer to the community for help with balancing.
But instead we’ll get another attempt to kill light armor because the devs think that light armor is the reason heavy isn’t played instead of heavy just being straight up inferior to medium for its role.
