What's goin on really.

Every time I get into a group fight it's never just grp vs grp anymore apex worst for this. It's Always your fight 5 vs 5 then next thing your against two full grps where's the skill in that and what's with the showing off about 20 peeps beating a small group. Has every lost the capability to pvp on this server or am I missing something.

Its just getting boring now as every time you get into a fight you know it won't be u vs that person or persons for long.

Personally i I think a guild cap should be introduced make guilds smaller or look at instancing maps so only one group per guild is allowed in that map. Or add more maps so at least we are more spread out.

I enjoy pvp on Mir but constantly coming up against two - three times the amount of people in a fight isn't fun it's not owning it's just who can mass recruit more players.

You answered your own post, it's about numbers and always will be really. Mir has never required much skill at all in PvP, all you need is to be quicker then the others and you should win, unless your a lot lower level and have a lot worse gear.

So how is that any different to hunting solo and being jumped by a group of 5+ players? You usually don't stand much of a chance of winning those fights either - should we limit the group size to 2 people to avoid that happening?

FYI there is already a guild cap, it's 100. Staff have said they don't intend to change that anytime soon. Reducing it isn't really fesable - what are you going to do to guilds that have more than the new limit you impose? Randomly boot half of the members?

lol i'd disagree with that, my machine is faster than most (you can see it when running side by side with other players), and i'm still shitter than most :lol

That's not the case on here though - the speed thing i mean, as most of the time even slow people can hit you whilst you're running. The ranged classes have a huge advantage here in terms of pvp due to this, and the fact that melee pvp is messed up as you can only hit people if you actually let go of the run button, which obviously makes you a sitting duck. This renders any skill in pvp that there used to be absolutely useless., and even people who are horrendous at fighting can easily get the upper hand if they have an extra couple of people on their side.

All private servers should have a guild cap. Small amount of players.

Otherwise ends up with one big guild and loads of little ones.

Nah only time iv been to zt is to kill rats for a quest.

Its ts about not wanting one guild who mass recruited at the start of the server ruining everyone else's enjoyment of the game. Hence I requested a lower guild cap to split it up more and the addition of more mid level hunting areas to help spread the server out more instead of every one hunting the same old psc pt bdd.

Point of thread is apex are only good when there is lots of them to help meatshield thier not so good 'good' players.

Has Apex **** in your kettle?

Every post you make is to take a stab at the guild. Many Shhh and NoName like to gang up and kill around the game just the same...

Grow up and play it for what it is, a game!

i was 1v1 a tao in bc on my wiz, with pets, she got the eviltong kill but I was standing on her drops with my pets and she couldn't get to them, she just ran around sfbing me, waiting for her "help" to arrive, whereby a war came running to her rescue and starting attacking me and my pets, obviously then died, couldn't 1v1 me :( HAD to be 2v1 pussy ;p

This seems daft to me. Apex are not a fighting guild really, they are suppose to fight In Self defence only or against known enemies. The idea is you don't pick a fight with them more than once.

Anyway what you are saying is "it's ruining your game because they won't just sit by and let you kill their members"? But you will ruin their mbers games by killing them whenever you see them?

Apex are def not a defence only guild lol multiple times I and others I gory with have been jumped by them. And ii still get plenty of kills it's just more annoying that every time they and others resort to calling in countless other people to fight a small group instead of accepting defeat and learning to pvp better.

If a smaller guild cap is not introduced the server will go the same way reunited did one guild mass recruiting the majority of the server and the game becoming boring due to not being able to compete for bosses. I know reunited had it's flaws that also contributed to its downfall.

Revival guild had a lot members on euro. Seen a few of those names ingame. Be good to see Revival here. Thing was they seemed argue and split which apex don't seem to do.
