PVP - Ideas & Expectations!!

[Becken]

I hope to god they dont put owpvp in 14, If i want to pvp i would stay with Aion or WoW

I don't think full OWPVP it's good idea in FFXIV either, duels with option to refuse like in other games would be the way to go for that, with maybe a little more advance.

The only option for OWPVP if ppl really want, I could see when some area on map would be designed for that, for example place would be full of rich, rare gathering resources etc, so ppl can fight there for it, or have a exiting mining time, watching all the time their back ;D

I want open world PvP.

People who say FF games dont have PvP, um... duh, then why was Seifer attacking me in FFVIII? That was OWPvP practically.

People who say FF games dont have PvP obviously dont understand the FF franchise.

Is your mind somewhat clouded? PvP stands for PLAYER vs PLAYER. when was Seifer ever controlled by an actual living being? When was ANY character in an offline game ever controlled by an actual living being? What you say is PvE, PLAYER vs ENEMY. Enemy doesn't stand for "animal like enemies" it stands for computer controlled enemies of any kind, animals, humans w/e.

If you're saying all FFs had PvP, you obviously don't understand what's PvE and PvP...they are MMO terms and have nothing to do with any offline game.

We don't have to fight characters in the game that are controlled by real persons to "create story"...lol
See what Chains of Promathia did in XI? That's how you create a good story with MMO mechanics. You make it party based! PvP doesn't create any kind of story, it never did and never will...it creates either drama or hatred among players who are unable to controler their temper when losing in PvP(which sadly happens too often)

What is PvP?

Classic Final Fantasy PvP - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fWOXB...feature=fvwrel

Modern Final Fantasy PvP - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=369lXHg05yM

I'm hoping FFXIV will be something between ;D

I would honestly prefer that there never be any form of PvP in the game. Hmm....... Go figure, I agree with Cairdeas O.O

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.

A word of warning with this. From WoW experiences, there are people that will nag you all day with challenges. They may also chase you around trying to get you to cave in. Not saying it will happen, but you never know what kind of person you may meet.

What little FFXI did with PvP, they did right. They did it without it affecting the rest of the PvE world the game revolved on. It was also friendly and both teams were in good manner, so borrowing from there is a start.

omg just put it in a different server so all the carebearz dont have to cry all day that we are having fun

[Duelle]

I'm iffy on PvP, because I know class functionality overall suffers unless they are to implement different rules for all attacks and abilities when used in PvE or PvP. As a former WoW ret Paladin, I can say that it has eaten a lot of unneeded nerfs due to people crying over PvP.

There is an arena in Ul'dah so in the future I hope we can either battle others (team or solo) in a tournament style play. Or battle monsters ala FFVII monster arena.
