ArcheAge faces the kind of balance that comes with games that promise absolute freedom: Allowing griefing versus keeping customers. Since its launch, Trion Worlds has used the term “emergent gameplay” as a tool to pass off any complaints about players utilizing the game’s collision mechanics to block trade routes in non-pvp zones, parking their vehicles over player owned land to prevent someone from farming, and circling around buildings to prevent access to certain areas.
In an announcement posted two days ago, Trion Worlds announced that blockades will no longer be allowed in ArcheAge.
Starting on October 23rd, users may no longer set up roadblocks/blockades anywhere in the game via any means (vehicle, ships, avocados, or otherwise.) In addition, we’d like to reinforce that users may not use their vehicles, ships, bodies, or another means to block someone from planting on their private land, interactable items, or from blocking NPCs in such a way that they cannot be interacted with.
While a large portion of players posting against the changes point to the game’s player vs player systems, Trion’s own Seraphina Brennan notes that very little blockading is done in conflict zones.
