Combat is a central aspect of most MMOGs, and even though no decision has been made about PW having combat, it's a fair assumption to make that it will.

The goal of this thread is to figure out the basics of how combat is going to work. Bring out things seen in other games that worked well, and things that didn't, come with new and original ideas on how to make the combat system, and discuss these ideas.

I dont know that i have seen this point discussed so i drop it here now.

Since playing the matrix online i have become aware of the beauty of having differing types of gameplay. It is very nice to have free fire mode where you can attack from a distance, and then be able to go in close for a different type of battle. Interlock combat they call it in MxO. Its advantages are its timing becomes precise (you can tell who does what and counters with what) and the graphics are given a special twist so they look really good.
Besides that there are differing modes of travel. Besides the usual faster buff there is also hyperjump, which changes the 3d feel of the universe immensely. What i am driving at in so many words,

Can we have differing modes of combat?
Times when you choose to be engaged in battle in a particular way which then higlights the event.
ie: the camera views may change, the music, your abilities all differ with differnt modes.
