Pre-Wipe
« on: July 08, 2011, 06:51:28 pm »

I understand that this has probably been discussed for quite a few times, but i would still want to tell you my perspective regarding it.

Firstly, this post has NOTHING to do with (in my opinion) useless questions about the wipe date.

I know this is only extra work for the GM's and in case of further fleshing out, even the devs, but i still think it's a good suggestion: why not give players certain "privileges" the day before the wipe?
By privileges, i of course mean either high-tier weapons to be spawned, mainly as a form of entertainment before the wipe (good starting point for at least a battlefield event), or even direct in-game conversations with the GM's or even devs, as from my point of view this would  drasticly increase interest in the game or at least pull a few old players back in.
I also understand that this sort of an "event" would take at least a few hours to be successfully organized, but also that the players hiding their PKing alter ego during the whole server uptime would finaly unleash it, and you of course wouldn't  receive as much complaint messages.
So basicly, this sort of an event would definitely be a chance for players to vent themselves and of course get them back to the game.

When wipe is near, this happens most of the time.

It is. There will be 3-4 times more people in game, everyone is doing something, gathering resources, crafting, fighting etc. This is the best part of the game (at least during first few months). I hope that eventually developers will come to an idea, that after release, server have to be wiped on the regular basis, so people shouldn't whine about "when wipe" stuff.

Plus to this, there is a pre-wipe madness, which happens roughly one week before the wipe. Last time the NCR, Hub and a few other towns were bombed with nukes, so there was a huge radiation, power armors had become available, limitless weapons and ammo from the GM's and developers everywhere.... ehhh... I miss that time.

Fighting in APA and with horrigan gun, with guys in deathclaw skins, at the center of new reno, where anklav patrols are getting slaughtered, with 50 PA on the ground, and NCR bombed by nuke...
Yeah. Pre Wipe madness is Epic. Except last one which was made in a sneaky way, but well.
And anyway, after Wipe is the best moment to play. Because being lvl 12 means being high level, and running after a guy because he have "A METAL ARMOR!" and kill him with flamer... Haaaa...


WIPE please

I knew even some of the most PvP inclined players did think that way, under their BA and LSW... deep inside :)
