Wasn't this supposed to be an open PVP game?

With the new update the game would force you to do PVM and PVP will be penalized …

I really hope this works otherwise those few people who were left will follow the wise decision of their predecessors…

I bought a PVP game, don’t force me to farm PVM dungeons please…

Players – including PvPers – did everything EXCEPT PvP to level up, grind up weapon skills, and get gear and watermark. Whenever they could they used cheats, exploits, and RMT to do it faster.

Just so they can dominate in PvP.

Which made people not want to flag for PvP until they, too, had max everything.
Which made getting to max look like it was too fast.
Which made AGS force everyone to slow down.
Which ultimately resulted in Expertise forcing people to grind.

You can thank PvP for that because PvE never really needed to go fast at all.

As usual, PvPers killed the PvP in the game.

Open PVP was dropped about 9 months into development. I’m sorry that you didn’t keep up to date on game information for the past 2 years.

When people say they want to play a PVP-Game they usually mean, they want to win in a PVP-Game. But if the game is filled with PVP-Gamers, only the top 10% will have a game experience where they mostly win.
So either you force pve-players to serve as easy targets, or you have a game with very little PVP in it. That’s just what PVP in games other then moba’s boils down to.

lmao i didnt even think of that. someone who wants the New World PvP experience could play like SMITE and it honestly wouldn’t be that far off

PvPers ganking newbies at the first spawn ended that pretty quick in the first Alpha.

This new system punishes new players who can’t pvp despite being able to get decent equipment compared to long-time players.

Yeah like last year, it’s time to move on

Funny how PVPers been happy about forcing PVErs Into PVP, but thought it would never Happen the Other way around.

You got what you asked for, now Deal With it.

Try Mortal 2 looks good, but I’ll never play it

The real shame is the lack of battlegrounds. Why can I not go to some sort of battlegrounds at level 20 or 25? The only reason its so critical to get to level 60 is because there is no real PVP option at a lower level.

Im in a low pop server any everyone is flagged at all times. I havent had any issues finding open world pvp due to the luck increase when flagged

Take out ags responding, add in ags repsonding better, faster, stronger bug fixes, not sweeping gameplay changes and you’ll have a different end result.

Hell leave it in but give this game actual servers with real amounts of players and the end result is different.

Even on a magical server that currently doesn’t exist where there is always 2k online, thats still too little for a mmo, especially a pvp based one.

A server with always 2000 Players online would be pretty much unplayable for PVE or crafting! Not to mention it would just feel wrong with that many players running around!

Still commenting in the forums about a game you hate and wont play?

This actually happens all the time, the only world PvP games we have available now are…

  • Survival Sandboxes
  • Battle Royals
  • Planetside

I don’t mind getting into PvE games, the problem I have is EVERY PvP game these days that isn’t one of the above, is either an arena, or just unoptimal world PvP that is unbalance, uncoordinated, only goals are targeting players for the lulz.

This game could have been open world and aimed a little more at being a slow planet side or something.

Unfortunately, this game is not well stuctured. It mixes pvp’r and pve’rs in all the territories with everyone wanting to flag for the bonuses of having the flag with many not wanting the combat that comes with it.

It would of been much better if they game had gone say the route of eve online where they have high and low and null security zones. Zones that had safety and others where anything goes. That way, one knows they are taking a risk if they cross that border.

But, the game and the territory in it is too small for that. It’s a bit too restrictive, static, confined etc. You have one path of missions to take. End game is the same for everyone. You have to watermark grind and you have to craft at some level. It is a bit of variation in it but right now all the game is a grind without a goal in site. Sure, for top of the line pvp’rs, the best gear makes sense. But, should it take 1000 hours to get there when the game is really so small?

Either/or, I’ve gotten my monies worth. But, I no longer know what we are achieving in game other than grinding for a watermark and defending territory that often times doesn’t seem worth having. Especially when on my server we are succeeding in combat just using good tactics.

Is it really cool for newly minted level 60 players going against folks whom have spent over a thousand hours to get to the top?
