Originally by: Yurii Chan and you say it brings the real men to the table? lol, you really want non-stop ibis fights?
It does, and there would be far more than ibis fights.
When you've seen the anguish in a person's eyes; when you stand over the corpse of their three year old character, their gear, all the emotion and work put into that character, taken away by you, it changes your outlook on things. Similarly, once you suffer a similar loss, you truly understand, as it were.
Inflict and suffer those sorts of losses, and death in approximately 99.9999% of games out there today becomes absolutely meaningless. It turns 'OH NOES I LOST MY SHIP ' into 'OH NOES I LOST A SHIP WHATEVER SHALL I DOZOR?!?!?!? '
You want heart-attack causing adrenaline? No game will ever provide it but the one that allows you to realize that, as you are fighting, you are fighting for everything you've ever accomplished in a game.
Permanant death, however, would be the death of EVE. Like PVP in general, it isn't something you can just slap on to a game after the fact. If you do, it'll almost certainly be a piece of crap, and your players will eventually figure that out, and leave. The time for permanant death being implemented in EVE was over when the game came out of beta.

With current skill system perma-death is not an option, but in different kind of game it might be nice option if you wanted a really hardcore game. In EVE you are only really punished if you put most of your eggs in one basket and get ganked in it.

Perma-death in an MMO is retarded. You can't have a community where characters die every 3 minutes.

Oh? Tell that to the people I often drink with; people I've known and have been friends with for years, even though very few of us actually play the game we met on anymore.
It's rather easy to seperate player from character. Indeed, it's done in pretty much every game already.

the amount of people who post after just reading the first post is hilarious. i meant it as a kind of sick joke, not even half serious. as a response to the whine threads. figured id show people something they CAN whine about. now please go get a sense of humor and start reading the whole thing before you post.

Apparently your post is too big a flame bait. And when people looks at it, they went "OMG, what a stupid post I must reply quick to show my superity over him"
I doubt they could even wait to finish reading the OP before posting

Edited by: Sir Khan on 23/12/2006 16:20:20 Ya tell me about it. ok so now here we are at the end of my little creation, almost 1300+ views. 40 some replys of dialog.
and the moral of the thread.
Please take ten seconds to think about what you read. read the whole thread and make an intelligent , relevant and if possible constructive response. The flipside is that responsability for some of it also lies with the original poster. so topics should be kept relevant to the problem/situation/question/or god help us a humorous poke at the community purely for satire.
and ive always wanted to say this ...
MODS can i get a clicky. the fat lady left ten min ago.

Maybe make a "hardcore" mode with permadeath but have it so you could train all three characters on your account simultaneously. That or have hardcore characters have extra stat points for faster training, maybe start them with the 800k skill points plus maxed out learning. Grinding through the first couple months just doing learning skills would be pretty painful if you had to repeat every time you get podded.

Originally by: Xorus I suggest you try reading this which will explain how the POD works to create a current up to date memory snapshot of your mind just seconds before death and transmits it to the cloning facility :)
Ok, can we have a subspace communication jammer module then?

Originally by: Thor Xian I know how to make Permadeath not only workable in an mmorpg, but enjoyable. But it is my secret for now.
I got a way too, sorta.
I actually have a whole revolutionary MMO worked out in my head, equations and all. I've got a couple potential investors and enough talented people to work with too. I just don't have the time to sit down and start working on development during school.
Me too, aside from the potential investors...if I had those I'd be making the game already.

Well,even though I know OP wasnt serious, I have to post or I'll suffer withdrawals.
The problem with penalty systems is that it actually discourages pvp. You wouldn't get fights anymore, just ganks. Nobody would take anything even remotely resembling a path of risk.
As an example, Lineage2 when it first came out had very little pvp. Even when the ability to take castles came in, players were quickly disillusioned with the penalties. Almost all fights centered around abusing game mechanics to the fullest, and pvp only occured on "ninja" alts.
I needed more isk, so I took a risk. I mined some ore then fled once more. I'll return to the core to escape the war! |
