Clarification on the PvP response from Mod / Communication

@NW_Mugsy

PvP Servers require some development resources to start and over time, the folks playing there, will want a divergent development roadmap. For the time being, the team is focusing all of our resources on a single version of the game with universal designs, systems, UI, etc. If this changes we will definitely make an announcement.

The “High Quality Feedback” states that you shouldn’t speak for everyone, but this is essentially what you are doing with your response.

@NW_Mugsy

the folks playing there, will want a divergent development roadmap.

You are speaking for us as a whole.

Also the people who want to remain in PvX servers are speaking for everyone when they say they don’t want PvP servers. How can someone who doesn’t want PvP servers for other people get a say in it? It logically makes so sense.

If you read the majority of the PvP server requests, we don’t want a separate development roadmap.

We want everything the same, same PvE content, same roadmap, same updated, same maintenance window, same everything. SAME UPDATES AND ROADMAP.

EXCEPT disable the PvP toggle.

THAT IS IT. Can someone explain why this would be so difficult.

This would make people who want to flag 24/7 be condensed in their own servers instead of being mixed into people who want PvX gameplay.

That is why people who are flagging are having a hard time finding other people that flag. If you condense these people on their own servers everyone would be happy.

Also, the same people who want pvp servers do not want anything changed on PvX servers in anyway. They can play however they want. We have no problems with it. We want them to enjoy open PvP whenever they want by flagging and join instance pvp and have the time of their lives.

If you claim that this will split the player base, then you are admitting that too many people want this and the PvE servers will not be as full as now.

I appreciate your original response, but it addresses issues that no one cares about in regards to PvP.

We want apples but you responded by saying oranges are out of stock.

If you guys address this completely, I think a lot of the PvP threads will die down. The reason there are so many threads and post is because the miscommunication here.

Thank you.

Edit: Also we don’t want to transfer our characters to the new pvp servers. Everyone HAS to make a new character. Since you guys already shown you can disable server transfers easily, I don’t see why you can’t just disable server transfers for pvp servers.

I have explained this in other threads, it is not helpful to keep fragmenting discussions.
Also, please keep in mind I am not a player, I am part of the team and share the perspective of the team when possible.

Editing to avoid confusion or misreadings: I do not use the forums as a player, I use the forums as a representative of the team. This does not mean I don’t play the game.
