(sort of a repost from vector events board where maybe it oughtn't have been lol)



just a general
suggestion or idea that i know other ppl have talked about before (and
maybe implemented?)...




i think it would be neat if
in addition to the big storyline player event type things, we set up a
system to pit org teams against each other in pvp sort of mimicking
standard missions. then whenever ppl were available and willing there
could be impromptu team v team "missions" just for fun and to maybe
have slightly more meaningful random pvp than the sort u get around mara c.




basically representatives from interested factions who would act as
redpill controllers would meet up or otherwise coordinate locations and
objectives and teams, for instance a machine controller would designate
an area or floor (ie one of those rare building floors that actually
have non-instanced rooms) or maybe even exile hideout floor, and an
objective (easiest would be kill "such and such machine player") and
the team protecting the objective (5 other machine ops) and then the
zion or merv controller would come up with the counter mission team
made up of 6 zion players or 6 merv players and then they'd have at it!
(u could even have it go multi-team v team although that might be
harder to coordinate.)



there would be a mission time limit like there is for normal missions
and rules would have to be agreed upon regarding reconstructing or
being revived and at the end of the mission there could be post on the
boards documenting it through screens (or movie?) for the winners to be
congratulated and the losers to be mocked horribly (kidding). and after
the first
few goes it should be relatively easy to contact an opposing org
controller and see if they're interested in having a few quick team v
team
missions and over time ppl could get a feel for which orgs/factions
were truly
winning, at least in terms of this sort of loose competition over total
missions completed or even specific teams if
ppl stuck to the same teams. this could also accommodate non-50s pvp
since the arrangement would be private and the location probably
reasonably secluded so as to avoid L50 gankers passing by - or even
mixed level teams, as long as both "controllers" agreed upon the mix.



so on any given night a "controller" for a faction (or org..) could
ring up a "controller" for a different org faction and set up some
slightly more meaningful and hopefully fun team v team pvp just like
that instead of the usual "hey ppl, i'm bored, let's go to mara blah
blah blah."




thoughts?:robottongue:

i think that's a gr8 idea! my
post is sort of a stopgap measure until they actually implement a team
v team mission option. ppl can do it now, all it takes is coordination
and willing. wot do u think?

I think its a really good idea, but it would probably best treated as a "player event", you should try to co ordinate one, I would be willing to help

I only read the title, "team v team "missions" pvp".

 

According to the MxO handbook teams from the same organization can duel if the captains /duel each other.

if u have time maybe read the whole thing over, it's a
suggestion for an alternate type of pvp, not inter-organizational
duels. if yr interested i'm sure u could organise some missions with
jokerz vs zion/merv faction of yr choice. :robothappy:
