Factions: Tram + Fel!!

[Arcades]

Just a thought, bring factions into the world of Tram as well...make it like the old Order/Chaos system where you could be freely attacked (back then, there was only 1 facet), and maybe decrease the stat/skill penalty time to 5-10 mins, making it more playable, and less detrimental...would love to kill luna shoppers and blue bank sitters macroing their murder counts

 

[Mr Moosestache]

I agree. Though I'm not sure what you mean by only one facet during C/O days. It was around in UO:R. One of the funniest UO times was when they first implented C/O in Tram, so many people hanging out in C/O guilds dieing not know what the hell is going on.

Theres another thread on this in here and in the Faction forum but who cares, I'll sign on to it. Back in UO:R people would join just to be able to wear the shields and they would hang at Tram bank not thinking they could be attacked in Tram. Good times with great loot!

Factions should be allowed to fight in all facets and should be given more hot spots to duke it out in over things than just fortresses.

If your in an order faction in the tram ruleset you are just Order, If in a chaos faction in the tram ruleset your are chaos, You would be orange to each other like factions and can be freely attacked by the opposing side.

Luna vs Umbra?
Civilians would be immune to the crossfire, right?
Aren't you worried that this would simply dilute the factions players across more land?

I have to admit that I'm skeptical that players pumped up on PvP adrenaline would make for good neighbours when they cross my path.

I think you're right on the dilution Maplestone, and I'd also question how good a base defence can be maintained if players are spread over multiple facets If your base is in Fel, you can't defend it in Luna lol.

Honestly, I'm not sure why a player who wants to PvP wouldn't be happy to just go into Fel and participate with the rest of us. I don't have an issue with a 20 min stat loss, worked under it when I factioned and it wasn't a problem for me. Try not to die so often?

I think you guys should just try factioning in Fel instead. O/C should be brought back as a "PvP anywhere system" alongside factions IMHO, not used to justify taking factions over multiple facets. They were different systems, and I would love to try proper O/C because I only did factioning when I was younger and wish I'd done O/C too.

I miss order/chaos guilds...
They should re-implement. Think someone here mentioned, but just in case.

Order being Tram, Chaos being Fel. Or luna vrs malas, whichever.

But in any-case, I agree, faction in both tram and fel.

 

[Wakiza]

If i remember correctly when factions were first introduced, they could fight in trammel. Not sure why they removed it.

 

[Wenchkin]

No, I think you're mixing it up with O/C which was in Tram. I don't think factions ever was in Tram, only the banksitters on warhorses

Doing this would require that they let reds enter Tram.

No. It would not require reds to enter Tram.

 

[Nonel]

I don't see how. Using a red in factions can be detrimental. Sure, theres no GZ's in towns right now, but theyll be back.

Heh, originally you couldn't be a murder and in factions. Reds got a reprieve when they first entered regardless on the number of counts they had. However, if they ever got to 5 counts, their record would be set back to where it was and they would be kicked out of factions.

 

[Splup]

Nah, don't spread already very small PvP community to larger area... Maybe good for big shard like Atlantic, but on servers like Europa we'r too few in fel already. So when we would be split to 2 facets? Umh.

 

[Gandie]

I Agree with some of the posters. Keep factions in fel and make a O/C like system agaiN!
