"the future is easy because it doesn''t exist, but the past is painful because it lives forever"

if u have the right to attack anyone anywhere anytime then isnt the game going to become just a giantic war everywere? do u think u will have the ability to do for example /pvp to toggle pvp on off? if not then the game is gonna be terrible...

I argue with half my brain tied behind my back, just to make it fair.

Don't play on the FFA servers if you don't want to get ganked.

not too sound like a butt but go read the main site, they have a good amount of info about it... and /search never hurts either.

There will be PvP servers (FFA), RP PvP servers (self explanatory), and regular servers which only allow player vs player in the Border Kingdoms or mini games.

It is. The PvP server was designed to be FFA anywhere apart from Cities /Hubs only. Exactly the same for RP-PvP servers. The devs have always maintained  that the PvP servers will be FFA apart from safe places, the game was essentially designed like this from scratch - all they are asking for now are do you want safe places or not on these servers.  This is Hyboria :)

 

What is, at question now is:

A.) Would you prefer the only safe places are town/cities/hubs for RP-PvP or PvP servers, or NO safe places at all.

B.) Looting system. To be decided later.

The regular servers are just like crmznoutlw16  says.

 

I posted an offical survey still on first page here earlier.

Some people like that.

 

If it's not for you, play on a PvE server where you'll have access to PvP in the Border Kingdoms and mini games.

 

No idea if there is a /pvp toggle, but if it is implemented it would be on a PvE server and it sounds like this is what you're looking for.

As for PvP, you will probably not get any more nor less ganging than the average PvP WoW server. The looting system as I understand it, is still under development. I cannot imagine that the devs want to encourage griefing, so I'm pretty sure there will be some kind of level difference cap. That said, for some easy kills are motiavtion enough. Probably because they were ganked themselves plenty of times themselves in the past.

If you have a problem with this, I suggest rolling on a PvE server or go some sort of stealth class.
