Hello,
After wasting 2 hours trying to get first artifact in PVE server i figured out something
So what if foundations not blocking Cave mobs spawn zones, like, Aligator boss are in cave, why when some griefer place random foundation on top of that spawn, it prevents aligator to spawn? ( atleast not boss ones its player problem if they build on boss spawns not boss problems … )
And also, in PVE servers could be added vote to remove some player buildings or kick him ( like it is in others games) Example would be , that if vote could be done only by players who are level 60 only they can vote for kicking/building destroying…
This is just idea who would be nice, because as far as i see PVE are griefer full… who build random cubes, or blocking needed mob spawn zones… like Gallamans tomb aligator spawn…
I’m pretty sure that blocking on PVE is against the rules, you should be able to report any players or tribes who are doing that. I can’t say how because I’m lucky enough to be on a server that seems to be friendly. I hope that it gets sorted for you.
And what then players can do to stop it? Decay on structures are 175:00:00 like that foundation, are exact placed on Croco spawn… that make ragequit… Okay maybe new players like me at start does not know that under that place is Dungeon spawn and building there will stop mob spawn, but there is nothing else than one stupid sandstone foundation that prevents it… And a way further ( today found) same guy placed some pathway just blocking spider gorge and such…
The problem is , now that foundation is 152 :00:00 but nobody do anything… need to wait those hours, because as far as i found info in google, in official servers there is NO admins and players cant harm idiotical structures…
So i think this sugestion about that structures not stopping mob spawn is good, its player fault they builded in such place… not everyone other player problem… ( i know that someone already writed about it… but the server just slowly dying, those cube structures and mob spawn blocking give FPS drops and i think lags every day )
Also server is friendly but some guys randomly joins and grief like this (and mostly on newbie river) like baricaded with sandstone caves and such…
I think devs should atleast try those things i writed already about structure destroy vote and spawn, because PVE otherwise will die…
This is a horrible idea, sorry to say. It cannot be reasonably expected that people would use a tool like this fairly, especially since the whole point would be to deal with people who annoy you, ie. people you’re unlikely to judge objectively.
That’s why Funcom’s reporting protocols exist, so that an impartial person can look into your grievances.
About this - i did report of griefing, with map and placement images screened, with name of griefer… all i got was " Thanks for report, we will send this to further investigation" i think that foundation more likely will be decayed by time then someone actually helps because they “have too many stuff to do” and for theme of kick - that stuff could use only senior players… I mean like in dont starve game that stuff works fine there…
If the foundation decays, your problem will be solved. That’s hat the decay system is supposed to do.
As for “senior players” - how would you determine who is senior? Playing hours or experience alone don’t make anyone a suitable volunteer moderator, as evidenced by plenty of people on these forums with thousands of hours under their belt and an arrogant or outright hostile attitude. And in my experience in various online gaming-related channels over the past 18 years, the people who most want to become “volunteer moderators” or similar tend to be among the least suited for the job. What we don’t need is a group of vigilantes.
that stuff works fine there…
