I was very disappointed when I saw this :

It's all good for PvE. But for PvP and especially for HoH, it makes me sad. Team number is now 6 and everyone can see the effectiveness of henchway. With Nightfall, will be HoH crowded by henchway, I mean heroesway ?
Yes there will be always good team made of real players who will defeat heroesway, but I think Heroes based team will pollute HoH as vimway team does.

I love the idea, to play 1vs1 + heroes in a special mod dedicated to heroes. But I don't like to see heroes everywhere in HoH...

The goal of nightfall is to make GW a rts game or a cooperative one ?

when it comes 2 PvP, any decent team with some leve of communication > hero teams. Nothing 2 b worried about.
Though I can imagine that it would b quite annoying to only play hero teams after sometime.
The only problem I can see is those l33t hero interupters, though parking them on priority targets would b pretty hard.

it just tells u anet's retarded belief of "must help the noobs filling the team".

wow... they have got to be kidding. Hey guys if we fill up Hoh with henchway its still full right?!?

If teams really end up being beaten in HA by teams comprised of 4 heroes, a real player, and a henchman, don't you think it just means those players should get a little better? I mean, the heroes were good, but they weren't that good. I think it's just Arenanet letting you use Heroes for everything you can use henchmen for.

Oh how splendid...

i dont think it's about getting beaten by heroway, it's about it's going to be more lame teams in the world.

More hench/hero teams = more fame

TheOneMephisto · Oct 07, 2006, 01:28 PM // 13:28

O god. Does that mean that GvG might turn into 1 player + 3 heros + 4 henchies?

yesitsrob · Oct 07, 2006, 01:38 PM // 13:38

Hero flag runners, lol.

Skuld · Oct 07, 2006, 01:46 PM // 13:46

Lol reminds me of RTS games

lol, you're right. The first thing I thought of when I heard about customizable heroes was NWN Horder of the Underdark (I assume you mean RPG instead of RTS)

I dont think you are getting the point. The only reason people play PvP is to actually play against other players online. How boring would it b to have to face hero-ways twice or three times a run.

Legendary Shiz · Oct 07, 2006, 02:42 PM // 14:42

In the words of Cartman...that's hella lame.

Ray · Oct 07, 2006, 04:25 PM // 16:25

Hencheway sucks.

You got the point.

I dont know what anet is trying to do. But imo making it 6v6 just made it worst. *sigh*

Sir Mad · Oct 07, 2006, 05:25 PM // 17:25

Well if they DO want us to have heroes in TA/HA/GvG, I'd vote for limitating the number of NPCs a team can bring. You couldn't have more than 4 henchies out of 8 players in HA: I'd say keep the ratio and don't let us have more than 3 henchies out of 6 players now, and count heroes (you can have up to 3 henchies OR 3 heroes).

But yeah it saddens me too.

Patccmoi · Oct 07, 2006, 05:39 PM // 17:39

That's something i can't say i agree with at all...

Heroes in PvE, i love them a LOT. Heroes in a 1v1 Hero arena? Awesome way to kill time when no one is on and you don't feel like newb bashing in RA.

I love the Heroes concept...

but Heroes in other PvP format? It's pretty easy to imagine that heroes team will 'infest' everything. Everyone unable to find a team will go in with their heroes and hope for some wins... against other people using heroes.

The reason i love PvP is for competition against other players. NOT to bash on AI, or half-controlled-by-player-AI. If they truly introduce Heroes in TA, HA and GvG it's gonna take out a LOT of the fun imo.

Dont like this hero stuff, maybe they cant even call GW a mmorpg after the release of NF?
