You decide, first edition!

The only lvl that you can say is almost at 40% balance is the 220 one.

Yeah, thats true. 200 vs other 200 is also pretty balanced.

imo, there is no need for battlestation at all levels and it can be more alternative methods for vp 4 pvm'ers.

The only introduction any new person to ao will get in pvp is that they can never win and even 5 of them can barely scratch one twink. And maybe after a year or so they might be able to fight them.
The Devs should fix low lvl pvp if they even have a dream of getting new people to join ao.

in pvm, mobs will mess u up at first but as u learn, progress and co-op you get the hang of it.

Having said that, I think players needs to get more stuff from vp/particpating in pvp. Maybe not boc but...

[Xootch]

I don't mean to disregard anyones opinion but if 12/14 professions are really balanced...

Why are there so many fixers/shades/enfs? ^^.

because they're good for ganking and posing.

You can gank surprisingly well on a Trader, yet there's about 3/4.
I think it's more...ease of use...less margin for error kinda stuff.

agreed.

Probably because the "consensus" would be what you want not what others who don't agree with you want.

or, pretty much because it turned into a pissing contest, with many people logging alt accounts to vote for their favorite team, instead of an actual reflection of what needs fixed.

imo, any time you see a sudden jump in votes, after a relatively steady scaling of votes, there's usually some corruption involved.

I think you're kidding yourself if you don't think people were, from start, logging multiple accounts to vote for the option they want. There's been some ongoing misconception (imo) that PvPers comprised the majority of the game population. Because of this, I'd imagine people who held that misconception to be true would see any poll indicating otherwise to be bogus. Even if the numbers are close for the last 2 options.. overall, the "fix pvp option" only holds 1/3 of the votes. I'm not sure why it seems so unbelievable that legitimately the majority of people in the game are not focused on fixing that first.

Personally, I don't think they're going to pull off the tower war changes (which is the reason I didn't vote for them) and I don't believe that a new type of SL mission is going to be a long term solution to the fact that people are tired of doing the same content over and over to level. I also don't believe they'd keep up with a monthly event.. heck, they can't even get annual events right. That's why I voted for a new instance.. at least that would be something different even if it would be overdone and forgotten in 6 months.

Maybe I"m jaded, but it's how I see things based off of historical performance.

Actually there was a sudden jump in votes when it started being mentioned on the login and as has been stated people were voting with their alts all along including when your choice was winning... um that's maybe why they were winning.

Agreed lol. Lol they complain when others vote with alts, when they been doing it all the time XD.

Looks like pvp is catching up so i guess ill have to go back to ao and tell them to come vote or fc will create another notum miner area, and will delay the new engine.

I hadn't even noticed that, thanks for pointing it out. seems reasonable to me

"winning" tho? I think regardless of the outcome, everyone wins wouldn't you say? lol

please, grow up, just a little.

[Aggro]

Should focus more on low to mid level, cause it's there AO struggles. AO is considerably lacking content for newbs who does not have tons of other newbs to play with.
I have tried AO with 4 newbs lately, seems all have given up, either on Newbie Island or right after landing in Borealis, as none of them have asked me if we should play AO again
Biggest priority should be making content for newbs, making their lives easier in AO so they don't leave on Newbie Island. Like 10 minutes after they log in.

Funcom should simply ask Dnet to run a poll, they are probably better at that sorta thing.

Doubt they're better at it. While this poll might not be ideal, it is advertised on the front page of the launcher so anyone interested can particpate. And while it might not seem fair that one player can have multiple votes, they are at least limited by the number of accounts. I hope that dnet does not track IP addresses or have any knowledge of which toons belong to which account which would be necessary for any dnet poll to have any meaning. If they do, there's definitely a privacy issue.

I'm guessing this would lead to some people voting 600 times because dnet has no way of knowing ip addresses or account info, I hope. Major ballot box stuffing invitation here letting dnet do it.

[Ahndracorvid]

Honestly, I don't think FC should ask player-run bots to run anything on their behalf. There's enough drama over that stuff as it is.

What the heck Funcom, just make RK matter again. I just see "New SL Missions" how about something to make RK more interessting again? RK is such an unused world ...
