If they brought out another server for the game and made that open world PvP thats fine that way people who like PvP can have a say but knowing how well Cryptic listens to there player base ...... it wont happen they are going to dump it on us like so many other things we DON'T want, *cough*lockboxes*cough* but i can deal with that if they minimum gave me the option to reject open world PvP requests i dont wanna think im playing pokemon where if i walk through the tall grass (ie sectorspace) and a wild K'tinga appears, and whats this gonna mean for cross faction social zones ie Drozana, DS9 are we saying that when i take a respite from grinding for better gear and i go to Drozana to RP imma get attacked whilst sitting on a chair having a chill session by some Kdf toon whos claiming to be Khaless Reborn i dont honestly expect a reply to my concerns from Cryptic or PWE and if i do get one it will be a "wait and see i think you'll enjoy what we have in store"

but how am i or anyone else gonna enjoy whats in store if you Devs never actually take the time to listen to our concerns for the game.

well ive had my morning rant im off to grind for tier 12 omega

Where did you see open PVP is coming? It will never happen because because people will leave in droves.

Finally. Its been awhile since ive seen PVE'rs come into the PVP forums. Anything that gets PVP attention is a good thing. Keep it coming

I think if you have zones for open pvp this won't be an issue for the rper and pver. Thanks for your input.

Yup, Zones with open pvp is much more sensible. I'm having trouble understanding the OP, and all I got was "open world Pvp... blahhh".

Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I just find it highly unlikely that should open PvP become a reality it would force everyone to participate. If they are smart there will be clearly marked contested space for PvP as we as a wide variety of PvE and support mission (trade, diplomacy, exploration, etc) to let people contribute without being in the conflict.

I love PvP but I don't want anyone forced into it. PvP is great, it just isn't for everyone.

Given that this game has jack for pve content you should -have- to pvp, in my opinion.
As far as social zones go, just disable pvp in them.

Done.

No. I dont HAVE to pvp at all!

Play some foundry missions, some awesome stuff there.

BUT, an open world PVP would be pretty cool! Ill get back into my good ole' BoP

if only there was something in the ip that could be used for open pvp areas... oh i know, NEUTRAL ZONES! considering everyones in a general state of war, those neutral zones would be the battle lines.

sure, they might have to redo the whole sector space layout to include pvp buffer zones, but that could use an overhaul and reorganization. all of federation space to the left of earth not being in game is pretty stupid, only the most north 20% of klingon space in being in game when the entirety or cardasian and romulan space is accessible is pretty stupid, and needing transwarp gates to reach a sector that has the mutara nebula in it is also pretty stupid too.

I'm a very strong beliver in new open zones like Kerrat. A new zone like this could solve a lot of problems in my book - put in a ground or space set to it and you've got accolades, missions to farm dilithium and things to do. And that means a **** load of players that will take part in the open PVP zone just for the grind - and once they're there then it's all about PVP babe.
