How about a no-holds-barred PvP Server/Instance

Lupinemw✭✭✭No, I oppose any such thing (reasons posted)All that will happen is a group of people will band together and hit people as they come into the starter zone.
It'll be like spawn killing but worse.

✭✭✭No, I oppose any such thing (reasons posted)As the game currently stands, no. Maybe after the Thieves Guild and Dark Brotherhood and the Justice System is implemented. Then you could have the Dark Brotherhood hand out writs of execution and the Justice System would keep players from going nuts killing lower level players.Founder and Co-GM of The Psijic Order Guild (NA)

Dusty5✭✭✭No, I oppose any such thing (reasons posted)See here is the reason pvp is kept on a tight leash. There is always that group of people who care nothing for the other aspects of the mmo or any mmo they happen to be logged into. For its all about destruction and pissing off other players and ruining the game for everyone while telling each other how cool they are. Lets keep this form of mental-masturbation locked away in the closet of restricted single relm pvp.3

But then my vote would get lost and i would like to vote on this, but not with the given answers... seriously. Possibly the largest number of voters would go for "Both options are ok for me"..

Okay I see ... then you do care, but just wanted more poll options.

✭Yes, bring on the PvP Server/Instance!The whole premise of this game is 3 warring factions. It should have been open world PvP from the start. Yes of course have 'safe zones' like cities, but everything else should have been every man for himself !High Elf Sorcerer VR12 - Destro / Resto Staff

✭✭✭✭✭Yes, bring on the PvP Server/Instance!yes, open world pvp server is what been ask for over 2 years now!0 -
p.hurst1b16_ESO✭✭✭Yes, but with modifications (posted)Yes PLEASE make a PvP version of the game BUT with 1 and only 1 proviso...
They also make a Lore Correct server. No PvP, no faction war at all. No explorer pack. No Veteran Ranks and scale Craglorn to be a group zone for level 50.
Then I might start to like the game again.<Enigmatic Name> Is poaching new guild members again ! Apply on our webby with your CV and proof of identity and we can arrange an interview with a panel of our officers.0 -

Actually, I fully support an on/off toggle with a half hour cooldown in the ESO set up.
However, if it were a PVP realm (As suggested) your point is ridiculous. By simply being there you want to fight, if not the person in question is an idiot that can't even pick the correct server and by the general concept of survival of the fittest deserve to die for lack of brain power.
As for the tight leash, all the most successful MMO so far have had open world PVP servers, all of them.
Just saying..

JessieColt✭✭✭✭Open world PvP with the current set up, and as you described, would not work.
Quest giver NPC's would be ganked to prevent players from accepting or turning in quests.
Vendor NPC's would be ganked to prevent people from buying, selling, and repairing.
Bank NPC's would be ganked to prevent players from having access to their bank and guilds.
Graveyards/Wayshrines would be ganked to prevent players from respawning.
Dungeons would be ganked to prevent players from getting skyshards and credit for completing the dungeons.
ESO was not built from the ground up on the basis of open world pvp and trying to modify the game to be or offer an open world variation would fail, miserably.
ZeniMax would have to set up a separate server, not just an instance, otherwise the instance would be limited by population caps as Cyrodill is.
They would also have to code all Vendors, Merchants, Bankers, and Quest givers as non killable.
They would have to address V1+ ranks as well. Since going into another alliance's zone would open you up to being ganked by players, so it would take you forever to complete 1 zone, let alone all of them for the other alliances.
All that work for a limited number of players, while issues that face a vast number of players are delayed or put on the back burner is not a really good way to advance the game.

In other words, a ganker's paradise!
Sells in EvE Online, so why not a separate server for it here?Crotchety Old Man Guild
