Colosseum (Mis)Adventures, Now With Actual Competitive Matches!

It was only a matter of time before fears regarding PvP came to fruition.

 

To give you some context for the video, I had been playing with some clanmates previously, hence the PvP oriented loadout, we all use OP stuff so hence the Banshee/Ogris/Acrid combo. I had planned to record some footage of using the Glaive in a PvP setting, since I like the Glaive a lot and it would make for some cool kills.

 

However, upon entry to said match I was greeted with verbal abuse, the first I have encountered whilst playing this game. As such, I made the decision to not use the Glaive as I had planned, and instead punish them for their foul mouths.

 

Some of the language in chat is a tad offensive (IE theirs) so here is your warning

 

 

 

This shows the disadvantages inherent in public PvP, you get a much more toxic player base as well as people like me who use high powered setups to others detriment.

 

The thing is, I love the new PvP mode, and I think it offers a lot of potential for enjoyable gameplay, and I will say that this is the first time I have encountered anything like this, even in the new PvP mode.

 

As a final point I will say that I found the whole experience rather entertaining, and that I have kind of missed hackusations.

Upvote for (mis)Adventures that actually are adventures.

 

The sound is a tad off, Haven't done much of the commentary stuff and settings went wierd.

 

Props to the guys I was playing against for using tactics just as cheap as mine.

I dont mind pvp. As long as it has nothing to do with pve. By that I mean doing pvp will not get us new weapons or gear or skins or anything, it is purely for fun. Like the dueling rooms are.

 

And I seriously hope DE doesnt start balancing the pvp because it will fk things up with the rest of the game.

this is where you are wrong, it is not pvp it is a beating.

 

i was playing against rhino and frost 2x1 against my ash.

i was just res killing them, so they got tired and left. they killed me once because ash have real short invisibility duration and i used all my energy when loki do not suffer from this disadvantage.

 

even if DE will finish this mode, this "pvp" of yours will not change in it's core:

 

Frames with partial invisibility, with greyish energy colors for better camouflage, without sentinels and with hitscan weapon like braton or bronco prime will own this place.

 

So this mode of your will turn out to be hide and seek of loki frames all over the place.

 

Overall idea for pvp area and pvp in general for this game is empty, stupid and simply idiotic. If people still fails to understand this... well. It is sad.

agreed, though shotguns do have their damage halved inn a PvP setting IIRC

 

Only disadvantage for PVP are the idiots other then that it's quite fun.

The idiots are the best part. I just do what I did in the video like

They SHOULD balance the PvP, but balancing PvP doesn't automatically F*** up the rest of the game. It only does that if you balance the guns in both pve and pvp for pvp. Separate the balances by having guns/stats/etc that are pvp standard, separate from pve, like Firefall.

The funny thing is that Frost/Rhino are pretty dang good, all you really need with frost is to stay inside the globe and you'll be sweet, Rhino has mobility and damage protection.

 

Besides Ash has to be good at SOMETHING

 

Anyways, I enjoy Colosseum time with Clanmates, the Mobility is really nice, as well as the extended games.

Its not the fact that it will change the stats in pve, its the fact that it takes time away from the pve section of the game, which is supposed to be the main focus of the game. I dont want them balancing it because it will take time, alot of time, away from making the pve section of the game what it needs to be. There are alot of issues with pve as of the moment, and I would much prefer if pve was balanced and perfected as much as possible before  pvp is.

wanna know how frost died? i rushed inside snowglobe and shot him point blank with Bronco. snowglobe offers zero protection especially when you can exploit its borders to move with full speed and shoot inside the globe with same firerate. to put it simple, snowglobe slow is good for nothing.

 

rhino managed to tank braton fire for 2 seconds. shame that he didn't even noticed from where i killed him.

 

and your argument about "ash has to be good at something" is so cheap, you fail to understand it seems main reason why this pvp of your is so stupid idea.

 

bad thing is that DE actually spent some manhours for making those arenas instead of doing something better.

Honestly those looked like smurf accounts....or to others unfamilar with the term, accounts created just so whatever the plan to do with this account, wont get banned for whatever it is they made the account for. Examples include trolling, hacking, etc.

 

The PvP mode was very entertaining i have to say. However, as we all should realize it is WAY from being finished. Its good we have feedback to address these new emerging issues

Don't think so, the Vauban had S2 helmet as well as a tealsniper and dethcube jetwings, it looked like he'd spent a bit of time and money on it. The others sure. I don't feel bad at all for doing what I did, rage is funny.

If the Frost is competant globe is great, if not then you get what you had. Why complain that you beat people because you are better than them?

 

The PvP is fun but it has problems. That was the point.

Yesterday I watched a Rhino I had been facing for awhile duel a Trinity. The Trinity was using the Torid, and would use Link to link to the Rhino and stand in the poison clouds.

Trinity, Rhino, Frost (Ember) and Ash are all pretty powerful in duels, Banshee beats them.

Sixty, we gotta play sometime! As soon as I get my Straith up, I'll be an invis shotty while you go around knocking em on their asses lol.

 

That sounds really fun, good job owning them lol

Yeah lol, PvP troll team go!

 

You won't be seen and I'll use cheap tactics.

 

PvP is the most fun when people don't stand a chance.
