PvP games with PvE Channels or PvE Servers

[Groteske]

I'm curious to hear the community's opinion on this. :3

I myself like having the opportunity to switch to a PvE server or PvE channel when a game is open pk most of the time or doesn't allow the choice to turn PvP off. For example no one can ask you to duel or no one can just come out of nowhere while you are attacking a monster and attack you and then run away as the monster kills you and causes you to lose hard earned exp.

And I don't exactly think PKing is PvP because player versus player to me means there's a versus part where in my opinion means both parties are making the choice to engage in combat. PK on the other hand is just violent killing of others and it's more like murder than dueling.

Ok so let me know how you feel!

Wow what a waste of a post. Do you have a opinion on the subject of this thread?

Since I'm one of those very few excessive PKers,I'd think this is an okay idea for all the carebears out there. But I mean. If the game is PvP BASED,what's the point of having a PvE channel/s. Go find a PvE game to take your time on like BrightShadow or something instead of wasting our time and whining about dying IN a PvP game.

Hm but how long do PvP based MMORPG games last? Not that long and even if they manage to stay open for a long time the community is gonna be far less large than it would be with the carebears included. F2P hosts care a lot about how much they make off their games and PvP based F2P games that don't cater to carebears will lose that income. And not everyone who wants a PvE channel is a carebear. Perhaps a person who loves PK will also enjoy the opportunity to get max lvl and to farm safely for better equipment before they re-enter the other open PK channels.

Uhh,no? Like I said, PvP games nowadays have limited PvE aspects to you PvE lovers.
& I thought this was a discussion,not an agreement. Since,I will never like the idea.

Twas sarcasm good man! But hm that's not exactly true. PvP based MMORPGs have PvE content such as the story to the game and the quests that go along with the story being told. PvP games are not always just run around and kill people. Maybe I should of been more specific.... So how do you still feel about PvP based games with PvE content having a pve channel? Your opinion interest me.

I have never understood the fun of "PvP" when there is no competition. It's like some random person can wipe whole village, without getting being hit even once, and that is suppose to be fun? I personally like PvP, where I actually can get killed by the other opponent, and not having fun just to pick on players that don't have uber gear.

Aika I think is good example of having PvP-based game with PvE channels. Sadly tho the US Aika is pretty much dying, and the PvP of that game is starting to disappear, cos over 60% of games population is in 1 alliance that has 2 nations, and the rest are scattered on other 3 nations.

Though you should keep your sexuality to yourself, avatars like that are not appropiate for the common onrpg (young)member.

you stopped playing wonderland already?

I think all games should have the PK feature.

Makes the game more competitive instead of just a boring level chase.

IMO all games should have PvE channels. PKers just feel threatened at the concept because they know eventually all the people who don't want to get randomly killed by some super high level will go to them, leaving them with no more "easy prey"

[Anrick]

Too bad other PVP mmos don't have a system like that which means high levels can kill newbies constantly with absolutely no penalty.

Yes, Mu Online also had a similiar system. Red Name people where constantly chased, everyone wanted the "Blue Name Bonuses".

I used to stay the entire day near the cities rescuing newbies from killers lol, it was fun.

That makes the game newbie friendly, because they feel safe, when chased by a player killer they just run to somewhere with other players

And Player Killers think twice before killing a newbie because he can get hunted and not be able to leave town for hours because of the blue name hunters.

There aren't even any free PvP MMO's out there so this thread is fail.
