I would love a nice competitive PvP scene, especially if it could be organised into proper tournaments automatically and so forth..

And being able to duel and stuff would be nice and all, maybe even some faction warfare.. though I agree with that post early on, something like RO's War of Empirium would be awesome, too. Although.. yeah, free open world would be a bit.. >.>

Not that it wouldn't work, though.. if it were done right. But getting it right.. god knows how to do that.

Not really a big fan of PVP though as many have said, a system like XI would be good.

The big draw to XI and XIV to me was the community and relationships I build / built while playing and the teamwork PVE aspect. I personally do not need to test myself against other people. That's what other games are for.

just my 2 gil.

I'm big fan of FF however I'm also big fan of PVP, while we might not get PVP system soon, lets give Dev Team something to think about, and maybe even consider to implement in future My Idea and vision for PVP in FFXIV would be more about fair and square Tournaments rather than random killing.

1) I'm sure many remember Final Fantasy 7 - Battle Arena it was cool right

2) Another thing I would like to see being implemented is Team PVP, I realize that Battlegrounds like in WoW will not work well, however minigames like in Aoc might actually work good in FFXIV.

3) Open World PVP, and I don't mean pk, ganking etc, I mean possibility of having duels everywere we go in game, I'm sure it would bring a lot of fun, and players would find cool places to do their own private tournaments, fights etc.

4) The only thing left 4 me is some kind of Reward PVP Points System, for which we could probobly buy PVP gear etc, but that I guess I would leave to Dev Team

Personally I would want the arena to be a full arena with the options to fight monsters as well in solo or group combat for some kind of points that can be used for something. Then I would like arena pvp as well solo or group or solo vs small group see how long you can last type battle. Final Fantasy will never give us open world PvP in the sense like other games does, we will get something akin to ballista from FFXI but hopefully without the stupid mini game. Atleast make it capture the flag or something of the sort, I always thought digging up petras and throwing them into a rook was really lame idea. Also I would like to see a battleground type battle where you only have one life and once you die you are out of the game. Last team standing wins.

If PvP is gonna be about as important to the game as it was in XI, I'm all for it to be implemented^^
I would be fine with any type of implementation(though I'd prefer tournament/arena like PvP)

If it's gonna be as important to the game as PvP in WoW, I don't wanna see PvP in this game EVER! As soon as PvP is affecting class balance I hate it and I don't want it to be there. Class balance should be solely balanced around PvE!

I disagree with you 100%, I want PVP to be really important aspect of the game. Class balance can be easily based around both, in WoW it was easier because they had dedicated specs. FFXI did a pretty good job at balancing the classes during fights and with a game like FFXIV it would be even easier in my opinion with the ability to equip abilities from other classes even after that system has restrictions it will be self balancing. Now you should never be obligated to participate in battles but my ultimate dream for FFXIV PvP would be Player based companies or even Grand Companies having Airship battles of sorts against each other where it would start long ranged and then move side by side and you raid each others ship. It would be amazing though I doubt I would ever see the likes of that in FFXIV one can dream. Personally I am not a big PvP fan and even in WoW I didn't participate in it that much but I loved having the option to be able to do PvP whenever I felt like and be able to contribute.

Okay, I'm going to settle this.

Everyone who wants PvP raise your hand. Now SE will count those votes.

Keep your hand up.

Honestly, they have a lot to fix before even considering PvP. LS Admin, Looking for Party, /SEA, Delivery Box, AH, pet jobs etc.

If they can make Final Fantasy - War Hawk style I'm all up for it LOL land and air battles all going on at same time, charging with chocobo's and having squad full of mages all lined up casting spells. But due to the server and gaming specs probably impossible...
