Title: DTv
Post by: blackrose_Baron_Geoff on August 23, 2011, 04:18:29 pm
Played Dtv in nothing but a robe/HornBow/bodkinArrows got up to the Sexys and still lost 3k total towards the end in repairs

My suggestion is to Increase the Gold or get rid of the repair bill for Dtv

Been posted, discussed and ignored.

I'm totally with you, but I guess it's not a priority right now. I imagine the devs will get to it when they're good and ready.

Just gotta be patient

I think it would be awesome if you mustn`t take gold but you mustn`t  repair!

i agree; its pretty annoying. it really ruins the gamemode for me.

Yup, then only time I've played DTV was recently with my 2h alt before level 26 1st gen. Otherwise I won't touch it. It's a damn money sink.

No gold and no repairs are fine with me. Maybe the same amount of xp that x1 gives you so it isn't just a waste of time, but battle or siege would give much better results. DTV is really fun with 40+ people but no DTV only server has slots for that anymore because there isn't enough intrest.

Horses are disallowed since the begining (it causes a bug).

It doesn't cause a bug, it's just disabled because it's unbalanced.

How? DTV is unbalanced in general. It's impossible to win without glitching the bots ect.

So you're saying instead of balancing it we should unbalance it even more?
Doesn't sound like a good idea to me, to be honest.

I just don't see how allowing horses would unbalance it? I mean I can see the potential for cav to be able to make the bots chase them in circles. But I'm sure it wouldn't work for the majority.

A single lancer could kill an entire blob of melee bots without losing 1HP. Bots are horrible at anti-cav.

I Disagree !

Mobs have no problem killing cav and with the high repairs and low gold
 horses should be allowed

Horses are less of a problem with the new system with the virgin. But even then they don't really fit in with the theme of the mods and wouldn't be very useful. The most useful on the servers right now are shielders/two-handers, horsemen would probably just be annoying/rambos who die on the beginning of maps.

Next time, I'll try and point out that I was just joking about my opinion on the unavailability of players spawning with their own horses.

Just to imagine riding a plated charger charging through them peasants and bandits, such thoughts comfort me :mrgreen:.

I just think if you steal a horse you should be able to keep it till it dies

It'll die at round end, but yes.

eh... more back to the point.

DTV doesnt make hardly any gold at all, and charges FULL REPAIR FEES.

i might make 3000 xp and 200 gold on a 3-4 minute wave, then charged 2000 for great helm, C.O.P, kite and italian sword, and cased greaves. and mail mittens.

im not saying i shouldn't get charged for going heavy, but after fending off angry npc's id figure the least id find is enough cash to reduce my repair bill. hell, if all goes well i might ACTUALLY come out of it without gold.

so, heres the deal. either eliminate repair costs, increase gold significantly, or i guess say fuck it and leave it as it is. i guess ill just have to play battle. id rather play the interesting, unique gamemode, and not have to count coins, TYVM. maybe stronghold will have to be that gamemode, and not DTV.

all i know is until something changes im not playing it.

best for the dtv game mode would be, just do everything as in invasion mod. Same ammount of waves, no virgin to defend, buyable blockades, etc, Just copy the invasion mod and it will be fine.

P.S
ofcourse, human bots instead of monsters  :)
