#62320, "So thinking about it"
|
Generally I like more edges, and I think most people do.
However, I do still feel the enough edge points were available before this change, and I am in favour of a change that remove the pk incentives, where edges are concerned.
Pk already has many incentives. Giving edge points for pk was removing much of the social aspect of cf. It was yet another reason that people didn't want to group and rank, because they'd permanently miss out of edge points for a range of pk. It also rewards a group that is already reaping the rewards of pk success. And it meant that now almost every vet stomped the stompable instead of only those who want to jerk off over pk stats.
But edges are cool and fun, and I think people would generally like to have the potential to choose a large number.
So can I propose: - killing someone that hasn't died in over 100 hrs is worth something. - rather than giving edge points for old age only, which is good, maybe give smaller amounts every 50 hrs of play. - for those whose con is taking a huge beating, maybe give them back half the con they've lost in the last 50 hrs too.
The idea being that people can still have plenty of edges, but less of a link to stomping people, and no extra burdens on imms.
I also still like the idea of giving minor defensive edges at no cost to people that are getting stomped. Eg to help them stay supplied with potions, or have a chance to sense an enemy approaching. But said edges only remain active while the person has a worse than 30 percent pk ratio, so there's no significant benefit to trying to game this system as a vet.
