Wolves' Den, the first genuine player versus player combat in the FF series"

Nope, please see ballista ^^

Just guessing here but I doubt this game will ever have anything like the Ballista Royal...

"First genuine player versus player combat." Ballista was trash, and was hardly even considerable to be PvP. IMO of course.

It is not a PvP, yes, I am rolling on the floor laugh my ass off everytime a Monk ask a Ranger to fight him in meele. Nevertheless, it is a well thoughtout team based competition tournament, but using to KO a player for Gate Breach to score. It is much more fun than WoW's RBG and class balance is never an issue. Ballista requires more strategic play than standard PvP. I would like to see it back to FF14 someday.

Someone who understands me! But ballista was player vs player so it is PvP.

No, ballista was great, only the lack of reward / incentive is the reason for it not being successful. And the new Monstrosity pvp does have rewards, but they aren't worth the extreme difficulty.

So far in FFXI the pvp was a joke.

Again, no. The PvP in XI was not a joke, the lack of reward and barriers to entry were the jokes.

Name one game where this is in effect. No safe areas for new players at all, not even towns.

Technically, the first big name MMO, Ultima Online, had this. Technically WoW has this except the "no safe areas" part (However, PvP can still take place in those areas by consent or if someone of the other faction does something to incite it like staging an attack on a major city0

Its instanced set fights. Your playing the wrong game if your looking for PvP

You keep saying that, but truth is being instanced or not is completely irrelevant. Have you never heard of things like battle grounds, or arena PvP?

So all the arenas in dcuo aren't PvP?... Cuz its instance? Hmmm...

1) Arena fights (2.1 patch)

2) REALM VS REALM (2.2 / 2.3 patch) a la DaoC and on paper its amazing


Why people keep repeatin all that shit about "aaaw don't come here for pvp" when the game director specifically put dedicated ressources for a pvp system that won't alter pve. Been said one thousand times at least
