This game needs an Open World PvP Server

[Bourne_Endeavor]

So what you're asking for is the Warrior server? :P

I accept this idea, but only if no one users the word gank, ganked, or ganker. -shudders-

Yes, let's waste even more time and resources on the 50 people who care about PvP in this game.

Now come on, we may be a vocal minority of the playerbase, but one can't say what we want or enjoy is any more or less important than say, the raiders, or minion collectors, or people who ONLY enjoy one given aspect of the game, even if we may be divided amongst ourselves about what's good for the game overall.

To say otherwise or for a dev to act on that principle is how you kill a game.

Does not fit ethos of Final Fantasy.

^This. This right here. Final Fantasy games are, almost without exception, single player games where you play as 'the good guys' so to speak trying to save their world from the forces that would seek to destroy or subjugate it. There is no "you can either be on this side or this side and fight against the opposing side", even the previous FF MMO, FFXI, has never had open world PvP (there it was limited to a regimented wargame called Ballista and a capture the flag game called Brenner).

We're all on the same side here - Grand Companies are little more than a semi-united volunteer force divided only by the banner of the nation that administers them. Fundamentally we are all Warriors of Light defending Eorzea and Hydaelyn from all who would threaten them. Beating each other up for funz does not fit into that ideal at all. Leave that for stupid sellswords and mercenaries in their cups. We are above that nonsense.

I don't think Open World PVP Means what you think it means.

I know it is, and whole server for PvP is a rubbish idea for P2P and Final Fantasy games. And what you want to do at PvP server? Killing gathering and crafter in one blow hit? Or make crafter and gathering killing each other with their fishing rod or frying pan?

It wouldn't fit in the game story/setting wise, and espesically not gameplay wise.

I like my PVP. Rank 49. but open world PVP wouldn't work in this game. Not even challenging someone would work well in this game.

Lets look at the world pvp server on WoW, its called Emerald Dream and is by far the most toxic place I have ever seen, even more so that LoL. People sending real life death threats, entire guilds camping one person. Honestly I could do without that, but that said, some sort of duel system in this game, with the ability to choose 1v1, 2v2, and so forth, (Yes I know there is the feast but this would be outside that and great for rpers.) God that would be amazing.

No, do not want.
