Would you like an open world PVP server?

With the implementation of protecting guildmates against friendly fire: I would like to play ESO in a brutal open world pvp server. Most of my guildmates would like to see this too!

    Tbh, I would like to take it one step further and have one shard where it's FFA AoC style. It would be full of griefing, dirty play and smacktalk, but Gjhhs and his botbuddies KHkjhug and Jhiuyg would only last seconds. It's a price I am willing to pay. :)

      they could do this, with phasing, i am against griefers, so eave it to the vets. Vets pretty fun and challenging, imagine if you throw in some pvp too? would kinda force people to quest and work together.

      i could not agree with you more

      Yeah because bots are going to roll on a full pvp server when there is one... just so you can kill them.
      I like open pvp games, but this isnt one.

      This one suggests a hybrid. Upon an undisclosed amount of reports received against someone, mark them for world PVP. Additionally, other mer or men can choose to "flag" themselves. This will ensure only botters, spammers will be griefed and players wanting to engage in battle will.

      I feel like open world pvp is cool at first when the server is new and people are in similar level ranges, but later on down the line it always ends up being a bunch of max level, max geared guys ganking low level people who are just trying to play the game.

      It's never going to be like Everquest, where it took months to level so there were always plenty of people in your level range, or like WoW with the South Shore/ Tarren Mill wars.

      During beta, I tried to tell them that you level too quickly in this game, and all of todays mmo's. IMO it should take you at least 6 months to reach max level. It's an MMO not a single player game with 30 hours of gameplay. EQ1 and UO (old) are still the best mmo's for people who dont like it easy. Unlike many of todays players, I dont like everything easily given to me (aka WoW). Gear like epic weapons are things not everyone could get and they were a status symbol. People also couldnt be *** to each other because if you wanted to get anything done, you would have to be able to make friends and group, thus Aholes didnt make it very far in game unless they guilded together.

      its not the game i signed up for. If I wanted that I would have bought any of a million other games that do that.

      Well then your vote is just that, no for everyone vs. no "just for yourself". So your good. It just means you'd rather ESO cater to your playstyle only, and that is just fine.

      This game will probably become my main hobby for years if it gets open world PVP. I read ESO will get a justice system. What about players being able to bring to justice the other players that commit crimes? This will be great RP.

      I do not understand people who voted no. If you do not want to PVP, do not play in the PVP server. What is the issue?

      Someone mentioned a pretty good point. Leveling is like a prologue, once you reach max level, thats when the game begins. A kinda different perspective for me to think about now. Still though, I think it should take a bit longer to level, thats just me tho.

      You simply dont have enough people enjoying open world pvp. The real world isnt full of leet gosu pro hardcore etc. players, just people who want to have some fun after a hard day of work. The idea is crude and the players behind it even more so.

      Secondly, pvp has lost its meaning, especially in the open world pvp games. You have an already tiny community of true pvpers that is always predominantly populated by griefers,abusers, and just downright stupid people. These people deteriorate the standards for pvp and worsen the general communities enjoyment. This leads to Trammel, for those of you who remember the real days of pvp.

      With all due respect but the votes in this discussion say otherwise. Additionally, the majority of people agree that Cyrodiil is the best part of this game. Cyrodiil is open world pvp.
