Instanced RvR

A common question during Catacombs’ development was whether or not Instanced RvR would be coming. We decided to focus Catacombs on PvE – but now that the expansion has launched, we’re putting together a design and starting to implement Instanced RvR. I don’t have too much to tell you about it, other than it will be a “matching service” that will find groups from other Realms on your server (or cluster!) and put you into a dungeon-type area to RvR. We are working on different types of rulesets right now; more information will be forthcoming when Instanced RvR goes into testing.

We will post complete information about each of these new additions when we put them up on Pendragon for testing – expect to see the first patch notes in the first half of January.

Now this is the email type rvr we all have missed. We can go back to just having fun now. I hope this will change the game for me.

What they need to do is get rid of relics and make Fronteers completly instanced with all the servers. That way you don't know who your fighting at any given time. Instead of the same gank grp Over and Over. The biggest downfall to daoc was a game that was designed for large scale battles but can't handle it. Yup go work on your instanced RvR Dungeons, lemme kow how it turns out. I think you guys just got done building one with fronteers.... since u know everyone like PVP with Mobs killing you too. Fucking dumbasses. Go buy a clue

They are talking about clustering servers together, and sharing a single frontier among them Tingtong. I think its for the lower pop servers though.

As for Instanced RvR, hopefully they put in a system where you can see who you are gonna fight. If some RR1 group keeps heading back for more against the RR11 group, they deserve it

Only problem I see with this is the frontiers completely emptying while people spend all their time in the instanced RvR, but will have to see.

As for catacombs, I really like it. If you've got an uber template full of artis, your not gonna get much for your char outta catacombs, but I find it way more interesting to level new chars in, and was fun exploring.

Yea but What I'm saying is Why just Low pop Servers? Why not all the servers? Make it so Everyone in DAOC can compete grp/play against each other in RvR. Thew Instanced Fronteer RVR, Make it so 300people from each side are playing against each other at all times. That way you can log on at anytime of the day and have people to kill. The problem is DAOC is dieing and logging on to a server with 300 people on it with maybee 50 RVR from all realms isn't fun.

By making RvR dungeons they are also admitting that their Fronteers sucks ass too... If your goign to make new RvR dungeons then give us back old fronteers.
