Good choice. This was a issue that had a few of us cancel over.


Could we get a little feedback on why it took so long to get this type of post? If you would have posted the first 3/4 of it right after the first batch of flames in the "errata" post this might have gone a bit easier. Even if we had to wait till the GCW revamp we'd know it was in the works and going to happen. Your "it's not possible" and "faction subtraction" posts last week really did more harm than good.


Hopefully we won't see the same mistake anytime soon.

Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country. - Hermann Goering

So to clarify TH....if I die from any factional death only(PvsP or PvsE) and I insured my stuff, I get 0 decay and dont have to re-insure? If I die in PvsE and its non factional I get 1% decay insured and 5% uninsured?

All of you do me a favor. Go get your car appraised. Now, take it out and wrap it around a telephone pole. After that, make a claim with your insurance and get it repaired. Then go get it appraised again. Make sure the appraiser knows about the wreck. Your car is now not worth as much as it was before the wreck though it sure is worth alot more than it would of been if you hadn't had insurance.

Insurance made perfect sense. I'll be sad to see it gone. Whiners.

With the Imperial Crackdown comes a major shift in design development. Players who are engaged in factioned play and die a factioned death with no longer suffer insurance loss or 1% decay. Players should get insurance as they normally do and they will be covered.

I know that this is a PvP subject, but just for those who try to read between the lines, this 0% decay on Factioned Deaths is PvP ONLY: IE Will NOT apply if you are killed by a factioned NPC?


Its great to see the devs responding to such a heated issue. I bet it was one of them: "Its really hard to do" things that when someone else looks at it turns into a 5 min job


I welcome the idea of Meaningful PvP, removing the decay from PvP is a step in the right direction, but as it stands PvP is just an extention of other games like BF1942 where you just keep re-spawning and jumping back into the battle, which to me at least, seems a little useless since the only loosing team are the ones who get bored first (assuming they dont have 'mission objectives')


Great job TH and JustG, we know you get alot of flack, but times like this, they all forgive ya

TH you're the man!


As you may know, Valcyn is quickly becoming THE Imperial Server, and as such we all looking forward to throwing on our Stormtrooper Armour and patrolling cities without worrying about decay!


On behalf of many Imperials on Valcyn who love to RP.... THANK YOU ALL

If I wore a hat, I'd take it off because this is definitely the right way to go.
