Pvp and SvS - Like it or Not?

[Dr. Zeppers]

The attitudes of most in these competitive forums leaves alot to be desired.
With 'competition' tends to come players that show off, brag, boast about their abilities (which mean nothing to me.. pure dribble IMO)
Despite my success in such venues I left highly competitive shooter games to play POTCO to avoid such action and attitude.

I dislike cheating even more so... as it completely ruins PvP and SvS when its taking place.

From what i've read.. seems that Max is pretty close with the 'needs balance' idea.

I read about people complaining about people using voodoo, etc.. and well to me trying to eliminate these options is taking away from the game. All weapons should be allowed, or it should be something that can be controlled when initiating the match that is agreed upon by all players, not just a gentlemans(or womans) agreement, but something that can be set/controlled in the matchup system itself. If I were into the PvP arena, I would definately want to be able to use all the weapons the game gives you. Being a gamer from the shooter arena originally, I have been in many competitive games when my opponent had high powered weaponry, and I had little more than a pistol or knife. You learn strategies to make them work! Also.. theres the fight fire with fire approach. They use the doll, you use the doll.. I dont see an issue there. If you chose to develop your cutlass, and not the doll, and an opponent uses their doll to beat you, it wasnt them cheating. It was your choice not to develop doll that cost you.
