BG TERA: PVP vs PVE Back again for the third time A LOT OF NEW INFO IS OUT [Reset Poll]

[madpersian]

I'm going to hold my vote for next CBT. I think I'll exclusively play on our PVP server to see how it feels. Leaning towards PVP though.

I'll vote during the next CBT and see how PvP will hold. GvG looks very attractive and occasional rogue ganking is fairly easy to evade. All from a carebear viewpoint.

I seem to recall PvP in general was pretty toned down with mutual agreement and no downside for dying?

[Vandole]

No offense, but you should all try PVPing for at least 1 CBT phase. If you don't like it, stay in town, or in out posts, or simply run instances. The PK option is disabled in towns/OPs, and you're obviously in a private channel for instances. Trying out PVP will give all members a chance to know what PVP is really like and solidify your decision for retail. You might not like it, but you will know for sure why you don't.

WB will certainly be trying out PVP server, even though we have always leaned towards PVE for retail.

read up, BG is going to a pvp server for at least one beta phase.

[madpersian]

We are doing that during the next one right?

Good to know. I more meant for this coming CBT, but it's all good.

If the pvp servers are open for the next one I assume so, so for the next 3 CBT can be on the server you want.

Hopefully they'll have them up. Going to make a sorcerer on the PVP server and see how they handle in PVP. I have this image of guildies wondering around in crews jacking up the competition to assert our dominance in guild PVP. I think this sort of thing can help bring a guild together (if they are decent people).

In all my mmo experience, nothing has brought a guild more together than stomping out a rival guild/faction and capping the boss and getting all the loots.

GvG being pvp only is disappointing. I voted PvE earlier but I'm down to try out a PvP server during CBT. I played a little bit of ragnarok online back in the day and WoE (is that right?) was pretty fun, at least when you had your guild all grouped up and coordinated. If PvP is balanced and no one shots are possible (commonly at least) I think I'd be down to try it out.

Do you think someone with the outlaw status active will have it visibly shown to other players? So you can see it coming?

EDIT: I'm enjoying mystic than any other class in PvE but with PvP I might have more fun as something else. PvP certainly changes the dynamic.

[Senji]

Yes.

Healers aren't as helpless a they used to be.

I don't feel like there's going to be enough PVE content to keep me 100% entertained in this game, so I'm voting for PVP, especially if PVP can lead to gear or additional cash.

Stick to XI if you want to feel "hardcore" without actually having to back it up without fighting someone on an even scale.

[Kachiko]

Eh, there's no such thing as 'even' in PvP unless you want equal numbers on each side, which there are battlegrounds for. I'd rather see GvG, on PvE server, and have the better of two worlds in one. After all, if a GvG gets thrown down, it doesn't concern the rest of the peeps, who can still go about their biz. Either way, I highly doubt you'll be doing any of that until closer to end game, as the costs are likely to be higher than one would want to pay, at lower levels.

The only people who consider themselves hardcore are the ones who like PVP, and lol to that.

Now now, lets not pull a Vrumpt.

[Foxer]

Oh, I'm not saying I don't like PVP. I love PVP. It's just the people who run the most lip are the ones that come from a certain game, and let's face it, at that age, you think anything you do is hardcore.

I strictly remember the end-game botters that loved to MPK others never setting foot in ballista or brenner, but this is hardly the time or place for this.

Well done! It's sad that a lot of the CoD population don't even know about CS... =[

Quake 1 on dialup. Reporting in.

PvP ftw. PvE content never holds up for long enough.
