I think one thing that Daoc got right is the PvP system. I am not a huge PvP fan. I enjoy all parts of the mmo. But I think if you’re going to add pvp, make a rank system for those who want to be a part of it with added abilities. The PvP master levels, once a character is maxed out in xp give them add abilities for killing for their faction. Have PvP territories and events, strongholds and dungeons for players to use their higher level characters to gain more for their side. There is something to be said for a game that adds more content at higher levels.

I know that the game isn’t even out yet, but I believe that there is something to be considered here and hope you add a huge amount of high level abilities that allows for a wide variety in character classes at the high levels

There''s no honor without pie...

but I think you're actual point is that low level character shouldnt be able to get killed by experts, but I think in a war, moments of fighting alone will be quite rare. And besides; players dont HAVE to participate. I dont think it's a good idea actually. Everyone should be able to join the war if he wants to. Many people will think the game sucks when they first have to play for a few weeks/months before they can go pvp.

[edit] especially now that they've seen the trailer with huge pvp combat.

 

Don't pray for a miracle, be one yourself

I don't know about the PVP feature of the game.
But I want to tell you something,if you don't take care about this part;it will ruin the game all.
There could be some high lvl psycho who like killing everyone insight. And how could you protect them.
I don't know if my opinion is right or not, but I know one thing;you have to take care about this feature.

No offence but that it a horrible idea because what if soem low lvls want to battle some other low lvls or somthing.

Win one for the gipper!

...who's the gipper?

i think that if this situation becoms an issue that a few things whould be addressed.

1.  let all people pvp, as long as their server alows it

    i think that this is something that people want to do, but not have the advers effect put on them.  face it, if you want to whack someone, thats fine, but you need to count on them hitting back, even if you know that you'll win the fight.

2.  only let people pvp other people that are with in a certain number of levels of each other (i.e. lvl 12 person can only whack a person that is 10-14)

    i think that if this type of game play for pvp were put into affect, that there would be no experianced people going around stomping out the little people.  this is what is in everquest, but with a +/- 8 lvl's, in my opinion that is a bit high because of damage caps for some classes.  with the +/- 2 lvl's if you can be hit, you can hit back, fairly simple concept i think

3.  establish certain rules per server regarding that type of servers pvp system

    sometime if you feel like perusing the information that SOE put on their site regarding all there differant servers, you will see that each server has their own set of rules.  this is done for a very good reason, and i give thim a high 5 for it.  also if you look at the rules for their pvp servers, most of them are differant from each other, this also i think is a good idea.  i think that it may take a long time for blizzard to get a large enough back bone to support as many differant kinds of servers that SOE does, but if you give them a little time, they will be able to do a good at matching what other people have to offer.

=======

i also think that gaining/loseing normal xp for pvp is a bad idea, where as sometimes you cant choose to enter a pvp battle, unlike you can with a pve battle.  i think that maybe an alternate advancment (or AA) would be in well order, and that only high lvl people can achive these AA points if you will.  on that same token, make pvp available to all lvl's, i think that this is something very important.  if you cant pvp when your a n00b, then you most likly wont have the desire to pvp when you get to hire lvl's.  if that were the case, not being able to pvp at low lvl's, then the pvp AA point system would die i think.  however, if you choose to limit pvp that way, it may build a hype level, and in the end, makeing the pvp high lvl AA system a good way to do it.

in the end, the chice is blizzards, the maker of few games, but the maker of good games.  let them decide, after all, they have more xp in makeing games than most of us do.

Look the pvp system now is just the back bone. Trust me there going to add alot to it. Pluse some places are certain level restricted. And if you dont want to get killed anywere then go on the pve server you can still pvp there just in certain areas.
