i think thats its strange that no one has yet addressed the comment that th OP made when refering to the MCC on MCC war. It DOES cap the max time a match can last. in an MMO? really? doesnt really make a lot of sense, and doesnt really show a sense of persistance. the EVE side of thing will be seeing the persistance more than the Dust side of things.
To the dust bunnies.....its match after match. naturally, the beta status has something to do with that. but whats the direction here in reference to that "persistance" aspiration. lets take planetside or planetside 2 for example. you are in a war, you log off....come back (to the right server) and its the same war. a persistant battle that is always going on. while your are taking a little downtime, your comrades are fighting the good fight and holding the lines until you get back to cause more mayhem for the enemy.
....so my question is this? although we all know that eventually dust will be effecting the shape of eve a little.....does anyone else feel like itll still just feel like "bout's" of war on the planets? isnt that just like COD with a bigger map and longer time limit (time limit being the maximum time taken for one MCC to kill another without any player aid from null cannons.)
i dont like limits.
or will there be a ton of persistant, ever fighting wars and defense that you can jump into based on your access to contracts or stuff. imagine......you log into dust, you look at your corp contracts......a dozen contracts come up with battle that are going on right now. you choose which one needs the most assistance and jump in. you fight until the problem is quelled a little, and then you jump into another contract needing help. of course eventually, things may heat up again on the original contract. ever persistant wars going on, managing your corps actions on the planets, all that kinda stuff.
or will it be just a list of contracts that you know will last a max of about 20minutes, and you choose the one you think will last the longest before it end? in hi sec....maybe. thats what the hi sec "instant battle" is for.
but for the faction warfare or low/null......a timer seen a little two scripted for a place where "we" write our own stories and live them out in our way.
do you get what im mean? |
