NCR Defence event #1

<< < (38/44) > >>

vedaras:
by the way some improvements, next time one vent you should group people by professions, cause now it has been a little mess. Would be nice if some repairmans medics could gather together and those who need them just come to the place, cause now one medic stood in one place one in another, one is asking who needs healing other saying im on cooldown :> So a little notice.

I have to say, this is a delightful rule.

*A few hundred players are running in and amongst the Enclave troops*
"Oh no I mis-clicke-" BAN!

Wonder how well that went down...
[*]"Ban the wrong-doers."
[*]"GM abuse"
[*]"and GMs kicking players"
[*]"i have 3 enemys see and then dc cant relogin ect"
[*]"Being kicked out for nothing really sucked."
[*]"I was killed many times, then admins GMs kicked me"
[*]"you punished innocent players by killing them in the armory and kicking them out of event..."
[*]"Guess which law-abiding player got kicked out while PKers roamed the event?"
[*]"we got kicked even though we were standg away from the gun and armor mobs"
[*]"i got kicked from the event after dying in the equipment allocated to me..."
[/list]

And the best:
[*]"Banning PK's? Admins GMs was doing nothing, people were killng all bluesuits."
[/list]

I'm sorry, but this is why it did not work as expected (well, I expected it).

You gave the players the feeling of paranoia of them accidentally shooting someone they didn't mean to, this leads to panic, and guess what panic leads to... accidentally shooting people in the rush.
Then you got GMs with the power and rights to "ban people for 2 days" / kick them from this "fun" event and thus many innocent players were caught out of nowhere, either people who mis-clicked or just plain innocents getting kicked for doing nothing wrong, and people complain about the real PKers still hanging about. Looks to me like the GMs are a bit trigger-happy. This, Sir, is why this event does not want to work.

I think the idea of GMs being able to ban people for participating in a game event which was made for "fun" (which is not run by admins, as they have claimed) is quite clearly: wrong. There are ways around these problems, you have yet to find them.

If there is ever a "next time" for this event, It would probably be a good idea to follow my FOnline-educated advice, judging by the reactions of players and posters in this topic to such crap. Or get one of the admins to properly run the event, surely they have greater competence for such an idea than 2 actual GMs and 3 half-month-employed GMs who are barely gripping commands. No offense, of course.

Dark Angel:
WTF with man ....
2 unarmed enclave run and punch me . I kill one by LSW , and no next AP. so i RUN and SG should knock him NOT BG or PLasma granate man , they shot me and that enclave.. and i has -10 and i had must wait for FA :/ .

Reaver45:
I dont know if it is possible but that crowd problem could use some sort of lottery to pick random players and leave others to normal game. That shouldnt make anyone angry about getting killed in row for 10 mins then killed by "PK"or anithing and kicked I got kicked i understand why But it killed lots of time so it would be better to know from start that i cant join the event.

Yup, we'll probably set a "slots" limit to next event, and possibly some registration system, so you know before the event if you can come or not, or during the first minutes.
