Making the pvp server on pve server, i think is not a good idea. Make a mechanic that allows players make raiders is a interesting idea, but NPCs? I think that this will not work and will be so bored.

This isn't "spice," this is just annoying. PvP players want to kill as few AI as possible and as many players as possible. Now we are forced to fight AI ships because little nations couldn't be hello kittyed to worked together to stop the big ones, and granted, the big ones aren't fighting like they should be. Not only that, but by beating the AI, we don't really have anything to gain other than "we didn't lose our main crafting port." 

No rewards = no benefit. "Not losing a port" is a really shitty incentive.

While we are at it - as nobody on PVP Server wanted this feature, can we maybe enable PVP on PVE server? It's not like anyone over there would like this feature added to their server.

sure why not

These are not the raids we are looking for.

Raiders will attack most developed ports of top 3 nations.
This means they wont use any frontline mechanics

Whats the cooldown on this? 

Is it one port per nation (top 3 nations).

Please define "lineship"

Can players raise hostility during the AI raid? @admin

When will this drop so we can put a timer on? Just asking for a friend.

Although at this point when i ask my clan to defend this i think they may just all laugh,if the boredom of a PVE port battle that may destroy their will to live is going to happen we need to know when to take our medication.

I hate being this negative but i cant think of one guy who is not logging on atm who will think great il log on for this.

Well, it's a PvP server. Adding PvE mechanics to fix PvP problems is laughable.

[AeRoTR 1,386]

We were expecting and all talking about PVP Raids (I MEAN PVP, Player versus Player with Players)

Now we have the NPC raids on WAR Server ? Wtf is going on? You guys trying hard to make us quit the game ?

My request before it was 'released' was give the people participating a couple chests or something...gold/silver...at least it's 'somewhat' worth their time. /shrug

[Daniboy3000 68]

So the solution to people not doing RvR is, that NPCs are going to do the port battles instead...

Yes. With this mechanic i will waste my weekend time in VC waiting for stupid NPC raiders, istead making pvp. GREAT IDEA, LOL

[Severus Snape 793]

The actual PB mechanics themselves actually seem cool with escorting "landing" ships and stuff.  Imagine if they were available for PVP port battles.....We've only been asking for them for years.

Will nations receive chests or other "rewards" for the added annoyance of fighting AI?  Otherwise this seems like another straw on the back of players that are already on the fence of a game that's lost 40-50% of it's population in 2 months.  This is not the content we've been looking for.

I guess after this they create some PVE area and merge the servers...

For Peace Server

1. Raiders will attack random ports turning them neutral
2. Hostility will be enabled for neutral ports so clans can capture the ports for themselves
3. Raiders will also attack developed ports from time to time 
4. This will achieve the following amazing outcome for the Peace server
   1. Both PVE port defense and attacks become possible
   2. Port investments become possible (including port bonuses)
   3. Port clan control and taxation becomes possible
       

Looks like a great addition, thank you .

Is there any news on npc aggression in open world instance?

1. Smaller nations (especially acting together) can completely stop defenders from joining the raid by screening forcing them to lose invested ports (david vs goliaf scenarios)
2. Smaller nations can attack other ports during the raid times and take them undefended

 

That bullshit and you know it, more likely to happen is 50 Russians showing up to stop defenders

Looks like too many experienced players took a break of the game. From now on we lose everything, if we don't show up regularily at weekends doing those superboring group kill missions where we have to sink AI by AI in line fightings.

But how can you be sure that we collect all those doublons and combat medals again, needed to redevelop a port we lost to AI instead of not only taking a break but quiting the game. Mates, what you have developed turned out to be too boring to be played. Not sure that it is worth to be defended against AI anymore.
