A word or two (okay maybe a little) on outposts

Ah well done the constant undermining of alts being the reason we win. As I have already told you there were alt users on both sides. Yorran and Yakapo are actually very alike in that matter and their efficiency with alts can't be matched. Coming in a close second for me would be the Crests. 2 of the biggest alt users on the Karavan faction side.

No I never said that is the reason why you won.

You said that you wanted to "see if there were any more number 3's willing to put in the effort" by opening this topic.

And what I was trying to point out is that, myself, I do not feel there is anything I can do on my own to tackle, for example, Yaka's pod. Xtarsia and the one alt... I tried and got them down a couple of times, with Yaka, I could barely do any damage. So that is what I am trying to say to you. I do not want a Ryzom where alts go head on simply because both sides "use" them.

Karavan actually have to put some effort in to win outposts

Like I said previously, I have seen changes in the OP battles since the merger. To me, they are not the traditional OP battles I, and many others, used to take part in. What I see now is that players need to be more PvP experienced in order to make a difference at battles. What this is doing is, its leading Ryzom toward a more PvP orientated game with more PvPers and especially with regards to ownership of OPs.

How I see Ryzom is that we have the best of all gameplay and everyone is free to play as they wish. Indeed, PvEers also join in OP battle to do simple things like heal the pod or heal a teammate. Right now though, the biggest push is for Karavan to become more PvP orientated in order for us to stand a chance and make the game "more fun" for you because the Kami have made this transition well which can be clearly seen by how you fight and organise yourself.

Well, speaking from the Karavan perspective, I do not think we have the numbers nor the drive to do this and neither do I think "forcing" us to is the way to go about it because that is how I see it. You take away the OPs and tell us, well if you want them back work hard for it because we have worked hard too so we deserve the rewards - yeah ok you did work hard so reap your rewards - but I think its going beyond you just wanting to make that point, its affecting the player base and gameplay of many people and unfortunately, you will not strike a chord with everyone and many of those "number 3's" will likely give up. Question is will they just give up and ignore OP battles or will they leave the game.
 
So like I said initially... Lack of OP battles is not the main reason why people leave the game. Theres SO many reasons.
