[Weekend Event]: Uncharted System - Independent Worlds [Concluded]

[Valhalla Sr.]

See, we called this a dungeon event. But in regular dungeons in all RPG games, we don't have any player versus player around. Dungeons were made for people to obtain gear by groupping up and dealing with hard enemies. I'll still say that this was one of the better events around, and it should happen again, definitely, but, I'd say, remove the PvP out of it.

Look at it from a roleplay perspective. A jumphole appears that takes you into a previously uncharted system. You don't recognize anything, no data is available on it. After searching through it, you're met by unknown contacts. As we all know, red is dead, so they start shooting at you. Now, another group of people appears from the same jumphole. It's again, people you've had contact with (bad/neutral/friendly ; doesnt matter). Unknowns start shooting at them, so it's only common for them to ally with you in order to kill the ones shooting at you. You kill them, get the loot, and leave.

What I'm saying is, Player versus Player in this kind of event should not be allowed. They should be PvE focused events that allow everyone to get stuff, money, data, commodities unavailable elsewhere, and take their leave. Roleplay should be encouraged inside aswell, but you are fighting a previously unknown enemy, so a saying comes to mind: "The enemy of my enemy is my friend".

Just my two cents.
