its been explained so many times and trolls like you keep saying “just hit U lololol”
This topic is about PvP servers. Not “how to enable pvp on a server strongly dicentivizes flagging for pvp”
Troll.
Again, not trolling. Not sure if English may not be your primary language so if I’m not explaining well that I’m not trolling, I apologize. Let me know your primary language and I’ll try and get it translated. See here also btw…
No, this topic is about your inability to discuss reasons why your opinion is wrong. You have been presented countless issues that there will inevitably arise should there be PvP only servers. You just didn’t want to listen because none of those answers were what you wanted to hear. Instead of discussing the issues you go and say “new server, change some value, ez fix” but it is not that easy… and “bajillions of players want this” when in reality it is 3 people (including mostly you) arguing in favor and a lot of other people showing their concerns. 300 signatures on a petition is not a base to start a 2k/2.5k max pop server. AGS knows that, you know that and your grandma knows that.
So now that you’ve been out-argued you resort to calling people “trolls”. Why should anyone take you and these threads seriously? Hence why you haven’t received an answer from a CM.
There just aren’t enough people interested in a PvP only server so that it would be worth sending the idea to the devs. Aside fron the reasons why we think a PvP only server would fail within weeks. You even dismiss the failures of the past where this exact thing has been attempted in multiple occasions and it just went downhill really fast. PvP only already ruined servers. It is never going to be different.

Yeah you guys were sitting here pooping out the same arguments against fresh start servers “uuhh not enough players to support this. server dedd in 3 days”
Fresh start servers coming. because the devs know better than to listen to you guys.
Just watch. PvP servers will come too.
You say we are WRONG for having our preference and missing world pvp which is what made us fall in love with new world to begin with and you wonder why I don’t agree with your whacky arguments? Get out of here.
Troll.
And again you ignore even the evidence thate what you want has already failed in the past.
Never been tried outside of a barebones alpha when the game had 0 content and no factions.
Irrelevant to even bring that up
And every day there’s someone who thinks that PvP servers have ANYTHING to do with people who don’t want to join those servers. The density is amazing.
Whilst I’ve not done voluntary PvP in an MMO for many years I do think it’s best enjoyed on a PvP server. The constant vulnerability does give added immersion in my opinion. I’ve accidentally toggled PvP on in New World and got into a fight (arrow to the back of my head) and when I learnt it came from a player I just stood there and let them kill me. I was running to a new settlement at the time whilst on the phone. Obviously on a PvP server I wouldn’t have tried this! The level 60 got their level 40 easy kill. 
and look what happens to those WoW servers… they inevitably end up being one sided.
Haha aww. But this is a good example of dynamic events that can happen on a pvp server.
After you got ganked by the lvl 60 you could ask in faction chat for someone to help escort you to the new settlement. It could lead to u making friends with lvl 60 players as a lvl 40. And could turn into a memorable moment in the game you would still remember years after you stop playing.

Something which can’t happen in NW since there already is a faction balance system and it took 10-12 years before the wow servers reached that state. For 10-12 years world pvp was alive and well in wow and always the most popular type of server.
I completely agree. This is how PvP friends are made and I would support such a server. I’m not sure I would take part in them nowadays but they are definitely a great idea and have been enjoyed in WoW since it’s inception nearly 20yrs ago. I’m it sure why they don’t have them in NW as it would have been a logical move by the development team before NW was released tbh.

i think PVP only servers are a great idea, I support this 100%, I am really hoping they will add a PvP only server with the fresh start.

i quit WoW before the 10 year mark, and the servers were already lopsided…
as for NW… its faction balance system, while not horrible, doesnt prevent one side from taking over a server. have seen it numerous times. (and im not even talkin bout the "mega-company shell company bs)
You just came back to the game i saw you write in another post so you are probably quite out of the loop on those changes and territory control is not the same as player members of each factions
That is highly doubtful.
There is too many pvp’ers who are willing to kill you, no matter what the level, because “RED = DEAD” attitude. A few of us, flag for the 10% bonus to gathering and when you can obviously see that, yet continue to kill the person, you really are just irritating especially if you know you are good at pvp and they are not.
I’m not a carebear, but I admit, I am so frustrated with the idiocy, that I often just turn off the option to flag, because it’s not a fun experience.
In the board gaming community, games with 3 players are known as “king maker” and does skew the outcome of dominance. I wish they added a 4th faction tbh, blue maybe? It would balance things a little more I feel as the dynamics change when the smallest faction can’t win and has to choose who to side with to “king make”.

Then a pvp server is probably not the right choice for you specifically.
Many of us would react to that situation by fighting back or rallying up friends through the faction chat to beat them.
This scenario you described is a desired thing for those interested in pvp servers.
That’s really interesting
I like “OPR / Arena” type pvp. Controlled enviroments.
If I am doing a mission, even a faction pvp mission, I just want to be left alone to do it.
This new “10 minute fort captures” for example… irritating enough, but to then lose the mission due to death, after you’ve wasted time capturing it… URGH!
I’m old. I’m vexed today and it’s just turned 9am… forgive my rant.
Have a great day everyone.
