One day per week forced flagging

I was replying to the person I quoted in regards of having an argument for forcing people to flag. I never said anything about pve being forced upon pvp players… and to make things clear: No, I think IS NOT ok that pvp gear comes from pve activities, PvP gear should come from PvP activities

Am I misinterpreting the word NEVER? I read that as Devs won’t force pvp on players! NEVER
Sorry, english is not my native language

I know what you mean but im not arguing on if they will do it. I am arguing on if they should do it.
I agree with you that as youve point out they will never force it

Errrr, I just won’t log in that day? The same way you PVPers shouldn’t be forced to do PVE, don’t force PVP on PVEers.

Well, the fact that some people want to force pvp doesn’t mean the developer should do it. especially if said developer already stated that they won’t do it.

And, don’t get me wrong… I understand the frustration of those PvP players that bought the game when it was hardcore PvP… I know the frustration of buying/supporting a game for a specific feature/gameplay, just to get slapped in the face by the developer with a game totally different

Agreed, but in all fairness…the major change from a PVP-focused game was implemented LONG before the launch date. The HC PVP crowd could have just bounced and gone to Mortal or EVE Online.

I have a 29mil SP Pilot in EVE. First time in Null Sec I got caught in a gate bubble, blown up and podded. All my cargo (everything I had) was looted. Then the looter whispered to me asking how much he should sell the blueprints he looted from me for. WELCOME TO HARDCORE FULL LOOT PVP! It’s out there if they want it. Have at it, it ain’t for me. I ran back to Carebear space.

Or mortal online 2… which is already out.

I played EvE for three months, when to nullsec looking for that risk vs reward thing they always talk out about… but left the game as soon as find out that is just a gang/politics simulator. And the top on the frosting? Big corps reimburse you like 80-90% of the ship’s cost if you get killed while doing pvp…. man such risk!

Now, I understand this is done so corp members don’t burn out their funds, but let’s be honest… that totally removes the risk…

a specific future zone should be force flagged

A bunch of PvP servers would be better, pvpers would have the whole map to do their thing

Nah, IF you are destroyed during a fleet ops or Corp sponsored PVP gang, yes SOME of the bigger corps have reimbursement programs. And getting into those Corps is NOT easy. But if your dallying along minding your business and get destroyed and podded, NOPE, no reimbursement is due. They wouldnt do that, it doesnt serve them. All of the Major corps that were in EVE during my time there (Goonswarm, BOB, etc) did things that benefit them for the most part. I was in a few manufacturing and mining corps, no reimbursement programs but they did do mining ups that provided boosts and had an ore buyback program.

maybe next time I’ll try join a smaller lowsec corp.

I am not interested at all in PVP, in fact I am not interested in Gen or Laz or mutations, I like to play solo period, that is just how I like to play. It would be great if they had servers that a single person (me), or dungeon person, or a PVP person could choose, and all get the same end game progression, rewards. And by the way I have over 2000 hours played, so more than 99% of the people out there.

Sounds as dumb as veggie or vegan day.

Goons were famous for basically giving you ships for free regardless whether it was corp activity or not as long as you do the minimum they require you to do every week for them (in addition to ore buyback etc)

Didn’t Goons have a ridiculous “fee” to join them though (like $100 mill Isk?)

Here here!

I didn’t spend $40 of my money, and over 1,000 hours of my time on this game, to have some malcontented misguided folks trying to FORCE me to play in a manner that would allow them to kill my little digital dude, just so that they can feel better about themselves.

If I and all the other folks that don’t pvp wanted to pvp, all we would have to do is flag up, but if we choose not to be part of such, then that is our right. I bookmarked a different portion of the provided link.

What is actually needed, is for AGS to take a look at the toxic crowd, and realize that NORMAL folks don’t want anything to do with these folks, and give us the ability to play a revised version of new world, entirely without any pvp content.

Don’t remeber but upu had to pay $10 to join SA forums so quite possible.

Reading this now after the merges and other games have released is funny. We’re now practically down to 1 server per region so 1 pvp server for the world and 1 pvpve server per region is about all we need.

Currently 24000 in NW (been that for hours).

Ye people are busy waiting on the lost ark queues lol

Haven’t got a queue once, that seems to be a euro problem.

Exactly. One of the WoW streamers - Asmongold, I believe - already did a video on this. (Start at the 8:30 mark) BLIZZ ****ED UP! Asmongold Witnesses Death of Classic WoW Fresh Servers - YouTube
All of the servers went 70% Horde / 30% Alliance or 80% / 20% towards a single faction on a majority of the PvP servers, because most people don’t like getting ganked (surprise!) and just server swapped to a server where they were part of the majority. In New World, it would be a faction swap. I can see that if no server/faction swaps are allowed once you’re in a Full PVP server, people might just not play instead.
