Nerion's Questions:
*I really want to know what you are doing to guarantee large fights are playable AT LAUNCH and not lagged to death or visually stuttering, because not a single game I have played has been able to really do this?
*Concerning the use of third party programs that could turn the tide of battle, I would like to know if you guys are just going to use just GM's to hunt for them or what kind planning is being done to make sure these programs do not ruin the gameplay?
*How long are you guys planning, atm, to design 10v10 and an average 1v1 to last in pvp?
*Are you planning on progressing a persons defenses and resistances, through gear, at the same rate as their DPS or are you going to take the path of WOW and orient progression primarily around DPS?
*Regarding Crowd Control, how are you going to deal with this subject, such as the max length you expect someone to be CC'ed in combat, the mechanics to prevent chain CC, and also how you see CC's role on the battlefield?
*In crafting, where do the resources come from to make the best gear, and on top of that what sphere of the game does the best recipes hail from?
*Is the gameplay, quests, and maximum progression going to require a combined PvP/PvE effort or is PvP and PvE seperated for the most part?
*From the French community, are there going to be special pvp rewards from blood money and if so how do they compare to crafted and pve raiding gear?
*How are you guys planning on intergrating PvE abilities, dps, and gear with PvP gameplay?
*In PvP gameplay are you balancing heals to outdps straightforward dmg 1v1 in most situations without CC or interrupts; and secondly, I noticed you said HoT's are going to be the primary healing, will each healers HoT's stack on a target or only one hot total per person?
*How is the buff system going function such as duration, raid buffing, seperate groups, and finally how easily dispellable will buffs be in pvp?
