I mean..

Would it really be that bad to remove just Twitter? 

 

But then you have IRC bots/alts that can just watch chat, or check area history.

another thread turned into a kvk i think they'd all agree that twitter needs to go.

if you remove twitter etc yes you're going to have irc bots,alts with autoit running searching the local box for white hues etc.

 

all its going to do is screw the people that can't do advanced programming

niki, while i agree with your core idea, removing twitter wont do ######

you would have people having alts in every deed reading out local, how is that any better?

 

for a fact, its even worse...

people who dont know how to use that to their advantage, wouldnt be able to do it obviously

 

so yeah

Fix chaos pvp it's terrible! Spellspam, metagaming, exploits it's annoying!

Where is that spam at?

 

And for the other things, well - you don't get a fully functioning game, you get lots of possible exploits that people abuse.

This creates a ton of metagaming which ruins a lot of the point imho of pvp. So for example we find a artifact and the next day the enemy is stalking us. Since the twitter alert gives it away! WHY!

 

Remove Area History

Remove Twitter

Remove Local from chaos

If all you were suggesting was removing twitter alerts for artifact discovery notification, I could consider that. Removing area history, twitter, and local entirely, however, seems like overkill.

 

Also, I hear local is largely a function of the client being aware of an enemy, even if the player isn't. Remove local, and it may be possible to cheat by writing programs to examine the client's knowledge.

 

(Oh, and while I don't play on Chaos, I'm thinking of what would happen if these proposed changes came to Epic.)
