Any chance we are going to get world PvP?

Like the title says, I'm honestly not sure what they were thinking by not bringing it out and don't give me that bs about "go play in Cyrodiil" Cyrodiil PvP is severely lacking. It has absolutely no effect on anything in the global world and you need at least 10+ people to do anything at all in Cyrodiil without just getting face rolled by groups of other people with 10+ players. I don't see the point of bringing out separate factions if those factions can't fight each other in open world combat. I mean the whole story line on one faction is about the other factions attacking and trying to take over your side of the continent so why not be able to fight the players involved with that faction? Or at least make a server with world PvP or an option to take part in it have something on the character creation screen that flags you for world PvP if you wish or even post char creation option. Maybe even throw in some objectives for world PvP stuff that gives what ever faction that controls a point in the zone a zone wide buff or something. The PvP has been ESO's weak point since release Cyrodiil doesn't cut it any way you look at it there needs to be more options than a glorified battle field where people run around in huge groups and kill people it's very boring I found. Not to steal ideas from world of warcraft but even something like Arena PvP would be nice then at least you aren't getting slaughtered repeatedly by like 10+ people you would be signing up on a team with a few friends and working your way up a ranking system. Even a gladiator pit like in Oblivion would be cool I'd be down to 1v1 people in a gladiator pit for sure that would be awesome. Just some ideas I think ZeniMax should take into serious consideration you are only as strong as your weakest link and currently that is PvP/Global PvP.

Best youre going to get with world pvp is when justice system is completed (not for several months). ESO isnt and wont ever be meant for global pvp. And since there is just one megaserver (well two...NA and EU) they wont make a dedicated one for pvp.

You really want to get your ass killed while you level you your lvl 24 alt by some v14 fully specced - radiant opression spamming - with nirnhoned - templar?

Yeh actually I do! I beta'd Ultima Online and at that time when you killed someone you actually took all they were carrying.. That was the real deal and made for a perfectly balanced and realistic system. but even without that and just pvp everywhere would be fine.. Are you saying the random occasional griefer or enemy group passing by killing you while leveling is game breaking? I think not

we probably won't ever see open world PvP. I would love it if they did though.

To get world pvp they would need to remove the rest of the deer from the world, which would ruin immersion, which would *** of pve'ers - so, no.

World pvp would mean multi-factions zones which is awesome but I guess technically not possible.

To be honest I wouldn't play this game if ESO was this way. I'm terrible at PvP, I just haven't put in the time and effort to learn it because I am busy in the PvE world. Maybe once I finally get one of my characters to V14 I will take on learning it.. but until then.. no thanks.

Of course, if there was a different server.. or a true "off" button for it. I'd be game. I don't want to take away from your guys' fun, I just don't want all my stuff stolen after I'm one shotted by a "fully specced V14 Templar spamming radiant oppression with their nirnhoned staff" (hah, by the way, good job) while I'm fishing.

As a PvE player myself, I would not be angry about it unless there was absolutely no way to turn it off. When I go to Cyrodiil and somebody kills me.. I am not mad! I am in PvP territory, and that is what is expected in that zone. When I go into lazy questing land, I expect mobs to kill me, not awesome skilled players.

Whatever happens after hell freezes... after that thing, still no. Unfortunately.

this is how it works

the criminal is only flagged for pvp if they are caught stealing by an enforcer or have heat.
the only way to be an enforcer is to wear a tabard, while you have the tabard on you are flagged for pvp.

so basically you take the most risk being the enforcer. if your a thief, dont get caught simple as that.
this is world pvp with a twist that you dont have to participate in, but if you do, again dont get caught.
