I hope Yoshi-P will not listen to all those immature requests.

PVP being in FFXIV in arenas and sequestered battlegrounds does not imply there will be any PVP balancing of classes, they may change how certain abilities affect players versus how they work on monsters, but they won't necessarily change classes for PVP because there is PVP. For evidence of this, look at how things like Brenner and Ballista worked in FFXI, try fighting an RDM/NIN as a BLM, or really any other class other than maybe SAM with nutty gear. PVP in FFXI was severely unbalanced, yet existed.

I was just looking at the player's poll. Why would SE choose to implement PvP if only such a small portion of people who took the poll even want PvP? %5.3 of people want to undertake PvP as a group, and %3.5 want to undertake it solo, according to people who answered the poll. That is VERY FEW people. Why would they even consider adding it if BARELY ANYONE WANTS IT TO BEGIN WITH?

Those numbers represent a niche playerbase. If SE wants to get as many subscribers as possible why are they focusing on a feature that is a niche?

Only a small portion of the players taking the poll wanted PVP as the main point of interest while playing. I'm all for PVP but the other options given are far more important so i didn't vote for PVP.

Now make a do you want PVP yes or no poll and the answers might be a little bit different.

Then what would be the reason to have PvP then as the only people who would want to play it are those who already have the best PvP class. and as for FFXI who really plays Ballista anymore...

And assuming you're not just trying to be cute, that's exactly what Final Fantasy ISN'T about.

Thats a poor excuse as the question was asked for you to choose three. Which you like to do Solo and Which you Like to do in a Group. So if you view Ranking up and Farming more important than PvP then why are you even having this discussion.

PvP should probably be a event in an arena or something( just for fun). Even create a tournament of some kind(just brainstorming). Speaking of XI though I don't want it to turn into something thats there and used only for a few years then forgotten about.

Thank you jedgar you took the words right out of my mouth.

Cuz while i enjoy PVP a lot it is not my main focus. I'm just saying it would be a fun thing to add to the game and not that this should be turned into a PK fest PVP only mmo.... Also when i voted, i realised that the other aspects of the game they gave where broken and voting for them would make them work and fix these. If i voted for PVP, they would have added PVP without worrying about fixing the rest like.. gathering... i just tried mining so far but man is it boring... its long.. it takes forever... it feels like work and i already have a job in real life....

You could play FF14 for PvE, then when you want to play PvP load up WoW and do some battlegrounds

Man am i tired of WOW.... i had more then my dose of it. So much that i quit and i'm willing to play a broken mmo like FF XIV instead.... not even thinking of going back to WOW while they fix sutff

Don't get me wrong, WOW is great! But i've seen too much of it and played the game inside and out, i need fresh blood.
