Though I kinda hafta agree with the grief issue.. in open pvp you definately attract a "tough" crowd... or wannabe tough crowd. Needless to say u'll find those type of idiots in any big online game. |

Needless to say u'll find those type of idiots in any big online game. so avid PvP fans are idiots? here's an idea. instead of griping about the PvP community, which by the way play PvP games, how about playing a game without PvP. there are plenty of great non-PvP games out and coming out that anyone would be interested in playing. simple huh? this way everyone gets what they want and neither side has to listen to the other cry(carebears) or laugh at them uncontrolably(PvPers) or just play Spellborn and we'll see each other in the mines^^ (i prefer this option) |

Well i think the % of players who want open pvp is only like maby 25% or less, of all the people playing mmorpgs. Most people like acasional pvp but dont like to be forced into it, which is like 50%. And then you have those like me who utterly hate pvp, like probuly 25% or more. I am not really sure of my nunbers just guessing mainly from what i have found and heard in all the games i have played. but i think i am fairly accruate. I think there is a very simple solution to this probulem, all games should come out with non pvp servers or at least pve servers with a duel system like in wow and eq which gives people a choise if they want to pvp or not, and also have open pvp servers for those who do like pvp like most of the really good games have. I know in wow they have both pve and pvp servers its prolly like 50/50 but wow does a lot to reward and incurage people to pvp. Ever quest had pvp servers to go along with there pve servers but they were only 3 of then out of like 40 and they were sparcly populated. Ryzom started out as a pvp game but had to change it to pve to get a lot more people to play so they wouldnt go busted lol. There is a new game comming out called last chaos which just added non pvp servers as well. This way we all can play the games in our own style for our own tastes with out any one griping about being ganked or pked or griefed or being carebear. After all games are out there to make money and the more happy players they have the more money they have commng in and the better reputation they will gain in the mmorpg comunity. That was the perpos of this post to find out if spellbrn was an open pvp game or not so i can decide wether or not to play it before i spend a lot of money for nothing. After playing an open pvp game from now own that is the first thing im going to do before i buy a game is to find out if its open pvp or not. I dont intend to be a sucker agian lol. Iif you dont know something the best way to find out is to ask then you can dicide whats best for you thank you all for the info. |

i came up with a idea about placing npcs at certain areas (flagged) and you will be transported at the arena where you will be able to fight a certain player that you accepted thier challenge. i dont know if its accepted or not.
but what i do know is pvp will be in the game on one server list there will be pvp in the mines, where plan from many members are talking about rare items and minerals to gather that is only found in the mines the same with a boss monster. |

consensual fighting is not PvP. do not confuse the two.
consensual fighitng is great for non pvp games. spellborn was designed intentionally as a pvp game. yes there will be consensual fighting in it. i really enjoy full pvp games but believe spellborn's implementation of pvp will reward player skill and make combat meaningful. sure people wont like it because it comes down to competition. there will be competition in the mines and the victors will be rewarded for their skill. thankfully, the devs aren't faltering any in their vision. so none of the horrible "pvp ideas" some people have that would work well in a non pvp game, will be implemented into spellborn. |

PvP is an integral part of the game, but so is PvE which is what the game main focus is on. So I would not call it a PvP game, it is not that simple. Calling it a pvp game gives the wrong impression, methinks. But we will have to see to be sure. |
