Guys what do you think..
Should epic duel go further more in the missions?
or
Should the focus on keeping it a fun and balanced PvP game?



xxmirxx -> RE: Missions or PvP (5/9/2011 18:36:29)

Well we want mission alot of us but I would want to see now 2vs1 instead of mission. I think most of you can agree with me on that.



AQWPlayer -> RE: Missions or PvP (5/9/2011 18:39:15)

I prefer missions. Perhaps someday a mission with a good quest reward will come. I'm looking forward to it.



CloseYourEyes -> RE: Missions or PvP (5/9/2011 18:46:36)

well yeah better rewards will probably be more in the future but for me I think they should focus more on PvP just like how it started :D



jegaggin -> RE: Missions or PvP (5/9/2011 18:53:27)

how about... doing 100 wins in a day gives you some reward
or.... 50 2v2 wins in 1 day gives you some reward
or.... beating bosses gives you some reward
or.... getting some story missions either following in the legion footsteps or exile's.



Buffy A. Summers -> RE: Missions or PvP (5/9/2011 19:21:16)

In Case No One Has Noticed (Luckily, Some Have)...This Game Is Getting Further And Further Away From It's Roots Of A PvP And Battle System.

War Kills, Fame, Rarity, etc...Was Just The Begining.

These Have Nothing To Do With Actual In Game Battling (1vs1 ,2vs2, NPC, Etc.)

Now We Move On To Quests, Missions.

They Are Never Going To Give Us New Battle Modes. Recently (I Forget What Post) Cinderella Stated That Coding And Designing The New Battle System (2vs1) Would Be Harder Than They Originally Thought.

This Shows:

A. It's Not Going To Happen

B. They Were Never Really Close To Implimenting This In Game.

C. They Promised This For 18 + Months And Did Not Do It. (How Good Is What They Say, Their "Word" Now?)


Missions Are A Way They Say They Are Adding "New" Content.

Jump To One Place, Buy Some Items, And Turn Them In.

How Exciting!

When You're Done With That. Stand Around Begging For Fame All Day.

These Are The New Features They Have Given Us All.

What Made This Game Unique, From The Other Artix Games For Example, Was The Fact It Was PvP.

And A Battle System. As Epicduel Evolves, It is Going Far From That.

And It Would Seem As If The Majority Of Players (Past & Present) Are Not Happy With It.

Can You Blame Them For Feeling This Way?

Many Of Us Have Waited For A Long Promised New Battle Mode. Instead, We Can Buy Cake And Flowers.

I Look Forward To The New Dance Party Feature. Pay 1,000 Varium To Dance For 1 Hour Straight. Good Times.

*facepalm*

Buffy glad to see your back and jaded as ever

anyway i think if the Devs can make more missons like the Oz one and teh Challaenging ones we can keep a happy ballance of Hardcore PvP'er and softcore Farmers while giving a lil extra for your work

If your not big fan why spend your varium on these kinds of stuff.

@One Winged

Great To Be Back! [;)]

@xxmirxx

War Kills I Do To Help My Faction Win World Dominations.

It Is The System That 'They' Use (To Make Money) Instead Of The Old World Domination/Faction War System Where You Actually Had To Battle To Win That Day.

So, You Just Helped Me Make My Point Above, On How This Game Has Evolved Away From Actual Battles...The Faction War/World Domination Is Further Proof Of That.

I Adapt To The System That They Use, Just As Many Have Done With Agility, Focus, Build Stat Nerf, etc...

It Does Not Mean I Agree With It Or Think It Is The Best Thing For The Game Itself.



One Winged Angel1357 -> RE: Missions or PvP (5/9/2011 19:40:44)

War kills saved Legion becuase Exile was destroying Legion before that came out now we just get bombed to who knows where so it served a point to ballance World Domination but in the long run it unballanced it to no end



xxmirxx -> RE: Missions or PvP (5/9/2011 19:55:34)

buffy what about Rarity how does that help your faction. If we don't enjoy this game as much as beta times. Why spend so much varium on Rarity broad.



Wraith -> RE: Missions or PvP (5/9/2011 20:04:59)

Buffy is back, more intelligent than ever! She is right to the point, and she is right. Rarity, War Kills, and Missions all stray from the point of the game. If we had a Mission that told us to do 10 Kills in 10 minutes, I might like that. (That came from Killionaire)



Buffy A. Summers -> RE: Missions or PvP (5/9/2011 20:11:21)

@xxmirxx

I Will Not Speak Of The Rarity Thing Here, As That Is Something Else Entirely And This Thread Is Getting A Bit Off Topic.

But Perhaps Another Time I Will Gladly Explain Publicly "If" I Am Allowed to Speak The Truth.

Missions Are Yet Another Thing They Are Promoting To Distract From the Fact That There Are No New Battle Modes And That There Will Not Be Any.

This Is A PvP Battle System Game! Or At Least, It WAS.

You Should Be Asking The Admins Why They Promised For 18 Months A New Battle Mode And Never Gave Us That.

You Should Be Asking What The Purpose Is Of Mindless, Quick & Easy Missions (See Above).

Buying 5 Virtual Cakes And Trading It In For A Level 9 Weapon, Is Fun And Challenging In What Universe Exactly?

And What Does That Have To Do With Epicduel?

Where Does The Storyline Progress? Is There A Wedding In The Bio Dome? Some Surprise Party For Buffy Coming Soon?

Flowers, Cake, Gems...?

Why Not Trade In All Our Guns For Bubble Wands And Dancing Shoes Next?

And Have Daily Smiley Face Leaderbaord For Players Who Are "Friendly"?

Does Anyone See The Maddness? lol

@ Lord Sinastr

Thank You! Someone Has To Speak Some Reason Here In The Forum. The Game Is Degrading Fast.

The Player's Appreciation Week Was Done Simply To Quiet The Angry Mobs At The Gates.

True Player Appreciation Would Be Improving On The Game, Without It Costing Massive Amounts Of Varium And Preferably Be Battle Based.




Epic Pwnser -> RE: Missions or PvP (5/9/2011 20:16:25)

PvP.
ED is just doing this all for money. Stretch their money with off-topic content as long as possible until we raise a huge storm about it.
Fame, rarity, war cannons, CAKE. All of that.
Let's see how long it takes for them to implement 2vs1 boss battles. Let's start counting right now. This is day 1.



One Winged Angel1357 -> RE: Missions or PvP (5/9/2011 20:20:09)

Cindy and Admin 12 were missions for low levels thus the weak gear and if your a low level its cheaper to do the mission then to buy the gear



Wraith -> RE: Missions or PvP (5/9/2011 20:24:04)

^
^Duh. I'm starting to see the negative side of this game now. It is declining fast, and the developers are supporting the decline and raking as much money as they can out of it.

Some ideas for missions.

  • Like said, XX amount of kills in XX Minutes, No NPCs. Stealing from Halo, KILLIONAIRE achievement.
  • Finish 1 fight in 1 turn. No challenge battle.
  • 3 2vs2 battles in 10 minutes.


These missions would be FUN, and create a challenge. Buying cakes and getting a sword that costs 1k credits is just...a way to distract us players from the real issue. It also caused players to sell stuff, or buy more inventory slots. How is that even closely related to PvP fights?

Seriously.

I am about 1 millimeter from ranting here. I have spent $195 on this game, and I feel unsatisfied. Non-variums feel more unsatisfied because they are just pummeling machines for Variums. Variums get that so-called "privilege" of beating up un-rich people for hundreds of dollars.

The developers need to make the non-variums weaker than P2P, but not so weak as to make them look like total fools against Varium players. The Non-variumship of Vendzooka was a start in the right direction. More actions like this, such as the Non-variumship of Rune Cleaver and Super Energy Katana would close the gap between F2P and P2P a bit.



Clutch -> RE: Missions or PvP (5/9/2011 20:28:24)

@Buffy
Marry Me? :P
Oh and welcome back, your views have dearly been missed.

And I couldn't agree more. This game is going down fast. No 2v1, no tournaments, not even the ability to choose 2v2 partners... sigh... this game needs to get its priorities straight.
Where are the true fans of this game? Is it just me, Angels, and Buffy fighting for this cause? Get out of the closet guys. Anything can be done if we have the numbers.



One Winged Angel1357 -> RE: Missions or PvP (5/9/2011 20:33:12)

Clutch problem is unless your name is Xendran numbers are hard to come by and another problem that was pointed out to me elsewhere is that one of the Devs MSN buddy list is full of hackers and troublemakers in ED so one of the direct vioces is a problem and not the voices of reason in ED

Also Angels Buffy and others have an agressive point of view which leads to flaming and trolling which leads to quick locks so no point of view seen


Anyway challenging Missions would be awesome maybe steal afew Missions from the Earnable Achivenments list in teh suggestion thread becuase some of those achievments would be a pain to earn for anyone and would lead to a fun mission

Indeed non variums should not be all that weak. Non varium vs varium is kind of like...Zeus landing a lightning bolt on a mere mortal. Here's an example: in a battle against a lvl 33 bounty hunter (varium) I got lucky for like 10 times. I would have won, but my enemy got just 1 block and guess what, that completly turned the tide of the battle. Just because of that 1 block I lost.

We will need like 90% of the game's population supporting this same cause in order to have a change.



xxmirxx -> RE: Missions or PvP (5/9/2011 21:07:33)

Clutch buffy 17 your in college.



DeathGuard -> RE: Missions or PvP (5/9/2011 21:12:12)

Well ignoring all the last posts

xD I think PvP should be implemented more than missions , because this is a PvP not a quest game like AQW.



Cinderella -> RE: Missions or PvP (5/9/2011 21:20:54)

We have some things cooking that should make both the PvP lovers and the Quest lovers happy- we really do want the game to be enjoyable for all.

I feel like I should defend the cake mission (since I send you on it)- it's really for some lower-level players (as OWA said). Not everybody is level 33.



Wraith -> RE: Missions or PvP (5/9/2011 21:34:15)

^Or 32, but Buffy and my point stands. How does buying 5 cakes and giving them to a scientist in exchange for a sword help the storyline? The storyline is the Banished good guys beating up the evil bad loyalist guys or the other way around. How does this have to do with anything?

On another topic, Cinderella, how do you have an endless supply of swords to hand out? If it were Bio-nuclear weapons, maybe it would be better.



Cinderella -> RE: Missions or PvP (5/9/2011 21:41:25)

Xraal sells them to me in bulk, and I pass the savings on to you!

You can't think of any reason why it might be useful to bribe the Hazards? ;) The storyline is still evolving, and things may still be diversions for savings on a weapon for a lower-level player, or they might be useful to the story later.



One Winged Angel1357 -> RE: Missions or PvP (5/9/2011 21:58:18)

Lord even in AQW there are random quests that dont help the story but give a reward and its more credits earned then spent so its really a win for an incredibly simple task
