Another Loss.
Trias:
People also mention that in real life people don't act like that. This is true, but computer games are a form of escapism from real life so that we can do the things that we never could in reality.
I'm not a PKer, I get more out of a guy saying thanks than I do burst firing some randomer in the face. That's just a personal preference. Other people really enjoy murdering blue suits. Neither style is a 'wrong' way of playing the game and I for one applaud the fact that you can pretty much play how you want.
None:
But if you dont know who to trust in random encouters, its pretty one-sided decision.
And you can imagine if some newcomer finaly meets some live soul full of hope runnin towards to say hello, what kind of welcome he gets. Pretty discouraging for further play.
This cant be basis of healthy MMO.

Why not? We're all still playing and I can guarantee that it's happened to 99% of people here on the forum. At the end of the day if a guy logs in just to see what's going on he's more than likely going to leave for one reason or another eventually anyway.

Well the difference i see is what anyone imagine under word "healthy". I imagine game of growing population where people cooperate to achieve their goals and have fun together. On the other side there are guys who imagine the logical animal line of the stronger will survive, in this case having fun on another people accounts until they leave this game in boredom, its some kind of asocial troll thinking when the elite trolls survive and grow fat by eating others and in their favor the game is build right now, so any casual player who accidentally strays into this game and such a first impression can discourage him becouse hes not that hardy yet.
But those trolls are against themselfs becouse more people = more fun(food).
Trokanis:
Yes a game is a form of escapism, but only if that game is enjoyable. Right now really only one style of play is rewarded and in a form to those people enjoyable. And even they are having trouble enjoying it because for some reason there are hardly any players online. We're not trying to say one style is right and one is wrong. What is being said here, is that the way things currently work in game, haven't helped the game grow, and have become focused almost entirely on one form of game play.
This is a test so would it really hurt to try a different system?
