To all who complaning. Ask yourself do u want to have in your OPR’s team 6-7 people with 550 GS and lower and see how oponents do base rape after 5 min ?
They’re so bad at this game, they know without the extra gear advantage, they’re going to suck even more.
Being matched with 530 GS players was the dirst reason of disbalance in OPR now it will be solved difference between 600 and 625 is like 4%. But still will be a problem with comps. If u will have only single target weapons like bow and musket and oponents will have 5 bruisers they will just smash your team. Bows and musket cant do good pressure on enemies.
this games pve is trash, having better gear is the whole point of this game. keep the system as is, as much as i know about ags is that the algorithm or whatever they will add in to calculate scaling is going to be fucked up and buggy
the whole “skill” argument is stupid af, everyone knows that some weapons are overtuned and some are ass. its a loadout / gear based game. normalizing pvp is a bad idea. you grind your gear to use it in pvp. if ur 550 gs why do you think you should be able to compete against all of us that grinded bis. makes no sense.
Never been a fan of equalization, its usually never done well.
The thing that kills me is when they get called the fuck out their go to is often “Yeah well you’re just saying that because you’re bad at the game, youll find out just how bad if they switched” or some usually shittier variation of that.
Dope. That’s…kinda the point. I’m cool with losing, getting outplayed is just inevitability going to happen. I just prefer on the flip side winning more so because I was good, not just my gear. But that’s just me personally.
Overall, it increase the amount of potential pvp players so I’m 100% here for it
it will be a shitshow like scaling was before when a lvl 15 player did extreme hits to 60. Im fine if people that are under 600 get put up there but dont make peoples grind worthless. I have starting this convo again because its always the same 10 people that say “Git Gud haha you dont want it cause you suck” No i just dont want the hours i put unto 625 not going to waste because others are too lazy to get it. And btw PvP stats when? If we equalize we can also bring a real pvp stats like resilience or toughness and versatility.
To be fair, they wouldn’t. Your 625 gear would still technically have better stats, you’d theoretically have more perks, additionally with everything at 625 you have the ability to up to the next attribute bonus with your attribute food. So it’s not like you would be one in the same.
How so?
600 has the same amount
So i would “see” better values but they wouldnt do anything or how would scaling not make 625 gear worse
No it doesn’t unless you’re assuming someones 520 2 perk gear boosted to 600 just randomly gets an extra perk? Because if we can assume it does we can assume equally it does not, as there’s no confirmation one way or the other as far as I’m aware.
Wait what. How the hell could it be worse? That doesn’t make any sense
so you didnt read my previous post.
No, I did. So when you said
I went “What in the actual fuck? how the hell does that make any sense?”
Exhibit A:
IF you mean about your comment about downscaling, why would you assume that? That’s…not how this works. That’s not how any of this works. And I once again go back to what I said:
Exhibit B:
They could have just removed the experience system and saved themselves a problem.
I’ve been saying that for so long, but no one listened. It is one of the big problems why we see so many posts about nerfs this or that. Yes, it is true and that is the work of AGS. They should change the scoring system, they shouldn’t even show assists and kills, just points and explain how to get them.
I hope arenas and opr gets normalized.
Some people acting like there aren’t already MMOs with normalised PvP like GW2. ![]()
This is a good change to get better pvp.
Good news. They should have not reverted this change before. Its already lacking pvp, i dont enjoy deleting low gear score players anywhere. I find it i unentertaining and stupid.
They should add downscaling to pve so all areas in the game give you some sort of challenge.
Any casual game mode such as OPR and Arena should be normalized. Its better & more competitive experience for everyone involved.
Unless you’re some cunt who likes to tbag undergeared players and feel superior.
If you know EXACTLY what youre doing then yes it will take a month but for one or two builds at most and one of NW selling points is the ability to switch between builds and “classes” on a whim - variety.
This game needs players asap and you can not make it a grind fest if there’s yet not enough content to grind for. Once there’s a lot of variable content & more players return we can talk about more grind but not before.
Do you honestly think that in PvP focused MMO returning players priority should be to go grind to gear up? Regardless of how long it takes.
The answer is NO, they want to check the game out, go PvP see the new meta and have some fun. Getting oneshotted or severly outsustained/dpsed/whatever will make most of them forget this game exists for another year.
Normalizing only affects Arenas and OPRs which are casual game modes that dont affect your progression in any major way and have 0 impact on the servers themselves so why shouldnt they be normalized? Because it invalidates someone’s crafting RNG?
Remember that perks are not going anywhere its only about the GS so youre still ahead either way. Its a healthy middleground.
