Different Server Types

[Arcell]

Games change, deal with it or stop playing. Seriously, we don't need separate servers to cater to every last group of players who simply prefer playing with an old vs new style or PvP vs PvE. That's not the same game. If the game changes and you no longer enjoy playing it, that would be the time to stop playing. There are so many games out there it wouldn't be hard to find one you enjoy.

LOL, or SE could perhaps cater to multiple players and earn more $$$ kachingers. Honestly.

A new server just for people who dont like the aggro indicator... seriously?

As long as there is no PvP without confirmation message i see no reason for more extra servers.
Developing, updating and balancing each version will take a lot more teams.
You cannot please everyone, can not make 10 versions of a single game…
If someone does not like the way it is, there are other games.
For small things like agro indicator, UI and so on, SE simply could add a option menu where you can select or turn them on/off.

Let's try this again shall we?

Perhaps SE, in their infinite wisdom, should look into the possibility of creating different kinds of servers for different players. These servers could have different rule-sets, levelling curves, whatever.

Not everyone wants the same thing, and yet many people want to play what they consider FFXIV.

Many people like the current battle system, many don't.

Many people want PvP, many don't.
Many people want aggro-indicators, many people deem them a disgrace upon all things holy.



Perhaps SE could try for once to look at maintaining their different playerbases, rather than alientating them.

I never asked for ten separate versions, but at minimum there should be three: Non PvP, Role play, PvP

Like any other MMO.

SE have already stated that they do not wish players to kill each other on the game. With that said, it is unlikely this would happen

SE have said many things, I'm sure. This isn't a discussion on what they said in the past but a discussion on what they ought to say in the future to make a quick buck and also to make some players happy.

Oh yeah seperate servers with seperate updates yeah?

"The casual server is being ignored! the hardcore server gets content that I want! Wahhh~"

Have to say, worst idea ever.

They have some future plans (companies etc). Tbh, the lore itself doesnt really have room for pvp. Also, by the looks of things, the playerbase doesnt seem fond of pvp too much either.

I understand that there may be aspects from other MMO's you are wanting, but not every MMO is going to the same aspects as the others. There have been no suggestions on pvp for future development. Unless something unexpected happens it is doubtfull we would hear anything regarding pvp. The FF series has always been about teamwork, but fighting against each other.

The lore doesn't support PvP? Do you even play FFXIV. Yesterday I got attacked by a bandit pikeman... it was an Elezen NPC. It could just as easily been a player.

And LOL, you obviously haven't been following this game very long, have you? Long before release, SE were even considering a PvP server. While they weren't encouraging one, they thought of releasing one. Also, when Tanaka was in charge, SE mentioned implementing PvP sometime after release.

It's funny to see that you think you and you alone get to decide what a FF MMO should be. Even I would not be so bold as say I should get to decide. Hence the mutiple server suggestion. I'm only thinking of SE's welfare.

SE have already stated and i said this over +5 time and many others done the same. They wont ever add PVP,PVE,RP,Casual,Hardcore - Worlds or JP,EU,DU,NA world for that matter or PS3 and PC worlds. It's up to players to do that for themself. Beside is know for RP world if you want to do some RP join that world but you can RP any world just make a linkshell post it on here and every fansite and start your own RP ls.
