Do people still play in PvP?

[Wizarus]

This game has PVP? Almost forgot.

I did a lot of PvP between patch 2.5 and 3.0 (there was not much to do), got to max rank, have 20k Wolf Marks on me, and i don't really see any point in waiting 30+ min for a queue that will not reward me with anything ><

Whenever the new PvP instance is available, i plan to go back to PvP at least twice a day.
I'm quite sure that's also the case with most people who used to do PvP before 3.0.

I think most people are waiting for the new PvP to come in. right now it is completely restricted to level 50 iLevel 80. I know I'm busy with getting Jobs to the new max level and I want to use all the cool gear, stats, skills etc I will have. I thought it was coming with Alexander but maybe it was coming with the Savage mode. It will be soon and then it will explode again. So If you are interested in getting PvP experience and Wolf Marks etc then I strongly recommend going crazy with it when the new content is released. You should have short queue times and get in come crazy fun matches back to back.

Would it be bad to suggest maybe PvCPU? Going one on one versus the computer. Kind of like Street Fighter. There would be no queue times and get Wolf Marks depending on difficulty. Maybe have a tower of opponents like Mortal Kombat.

You mean like a Colosseum survival mode? I'm hoping to see that introduced into the Golden Saucer content, like it was in the original iteration of the golden saucer. I would love it if they could add in the ability to observe in the stands and place bets on the outcome. Or also have 1v1 2v2 3v3 battles in here too. It would also need ladder rankings.

I got in a Frontlines roulette yesterday. Was a 3 hour queue. And it turned out to be Secure mode. And there was a person on my team there for the first time. And we had no healer. It was awful.
Speaking with my PVP LS and other friends, you can expect 1 hour+ queues on the Aether Data Center now. You can compare that with 30 to 90 minute queues before the expansion. Now you're looking at 60 to "God knows when".

Wolves' Den is looking even more bleak. A person in my LS has been trying to get in Wolves' Den nearly every day since the expansion dropped and only got in 1 or 2 times.

There is just too much PVE / non-PVP content right now that people are focused on. And this has been a shock to me but people are actually struggling on Alexander. So I don't expect people to regain interest in PVP any time soon. At least not until the new Level 60 duty comes out. But even then, we've been told it will continue to be a Storm/Flame/Adder faction based combat which people aren't too happy about. So don't get your hopes up. Your best bet is to recruit interested people with the forums, PF, and shouting in Idyllshire. If not you'll just be wasting your life away in a long queue that may never pop.

Final Fantasy and PvP has never worked well, unfortunately. I'd love to see them add some battleground style capture-the-flag and king-of-the-hill with instant queue pops

I played 5-6 games a day.
Then they introduced slaughter
And one week after that I never touched pvp again.
Completely ruined my favourite game mode :c

Gonna start pvp once they release new pvp content. Already maxed rank and want use new lvl 60 skills into it. Still can play only lvl 50 pvp is kinda meh.

GC restriction really makes PVP a dead zone.
