North Side Massacre Cycle

[I love tacos]

A&F was interactive with the community but gave out horrible information. Really don't care who's fault it was.


Bring back the original pvp.

You're right, whoever was to blame works (worked?) for the same company.

FYI, the original PvP was a total guessing game and players had to tally their own wins based on their profiles, and guess how many definsive wins they needed to deduct. Final results we usually a suprise as they were basically a blind and silent auction.

Did you mean the PvP showdown? I think you meant the PvP showdown, to which I'd say, "I agree, bring that event back."

[Vile Lynn]

I would love a PvP event! I'll tally my wins, I don't care.

I like the straight PvP attacks instead of finding buildings to rob, but whatever: it was fun!

[Dipstik]

I wonder how many people would participate. I haven't attacked since the max level was increased, and I'm still not confident gree won't punish me ex post facto again for leveling up.

Wasn't the PVPs where the crazy idea of higher levels give more points started? I can vaguely remember the first few wars but PVPs was where I first remembered hitting higher level/stats players to get more points.

GREE could design the PvP event lite on XP with stat-heavy rewards.
Customers would PvP if they had a reason.

It's pretty much always been "the lower your player level, the more potential points you can earn" for wars. The PvP showdown awarded more point for robberies than fights and increased potential for points the closer your stats were to your rivals'. Both scoring systems are pretty bad, but it makes more sense in the PvP system because player level was a non-factor. The existing formula for war IP renders individual IP mods less effective the higher your character level.

This. Who wants the xp from 3 days of PvPing?
Plus with the current Rivals List, it takes me 20 minutes to find a rival I can beat. I don't see an upside to a PVP event.

Really? 20 minutes?

That's because back in the day you had more chance robbing someone than attacking him.

RB was scheduled to begin Friday, but GREE switched it to today.

Let the jumping begin, lol!

[b-w]

SA twice again this cycle? WHY?

[Vile Lynn]

Cute answer: It's a 24hr SA. Completely different event, heh.

Real answer: Customers will give GREE more money for pixels.

@Bolt,

Could you please find out for us what time Street Assult will begin on Saturday*?
Most importantly, when will syndicates be locked for the event?

Thanks!

The 25th is this next Saturday. It is scheduled for 11am PST but this is not set in stone so please don't quote me on that

Nothing new on the locking/not locking front.
