    i absolutely loathe the word "carebear" but after reading different posts in this forum regarding AA i realize what that word means and what it implies. dear god!!! this is a freaking pvp oriented sandpark game, that is how the developer XL games and publisher Trion are advertising it and some of you guys are looking for fairness among pve and pvp players? i am a pure pve player so i am staying the hell away from this one despite liking how farming, gathering,crafting and fishing has been designed in this game. PvE people, you should stay away from AA too, if you don't want to; stop complaining and suck it up. you are being annoying.

    Boobs are LIFE, Boobs are LOVE, Boobs are JUSTICE, Boobs are mankind's HOPES and DREAMS. People who complain about boobs have lost their humanity.

    Problem is, if you are correct, a lot of people on this forum are lying through their teeth and assuring PVE players that it's not really a PvP game and that we can completely avoid PvP and still enjoy the game.  

     

    Is that just part of the unfair behavior one can expect from the PvP crowd?  Also, the game looks good, with a collection of features no other game currently has.  Might be worth having a say here, in case Trion wants to make some money off carebear kind.  How hard could implementing a PvE ruleset server be?

    Or.....god forbid, your wrong.

    The fact that you can even suggest a PvE server points to your lack of understanding of the core mechanics of the game and the repercussions that would cause.

    Perhaps this game is so unsuited for it that it can't be modified to create a PvE ruleset.  Even so, if enough people want a sandbox where we don't have to deal with gankers, and if we let that be known that it's what we want instead of putting up with PvP we don't want, we'll eventually get a game we can enjoy.

     

    I feel no guilt whatsoever for posting about this, either.  It happens in every forum in every game that doesn't have open world PvP, but in reverse.  

     

    Edit:  And I always support the PvPer push for their own open world pvp server to go alongside the PvE server, too, at least when the population will allow for it.  And I saw the number of servers on Russia Archeage, if Trion's is half as crowded, the population does exist.

    PvE content of AA evolves 90 % of exploring. Staring from quests thats are hidden and r not listed in your journal(similar to TSW ), knowing the economy of the server and researching the market, finishing with rare plants that spawn randomly all over the map.

     

    More i`m getting into AA more staff i`m finding in it to do. Game is just great. I just wish it had some sub only servers.

    PROS:

    Sandbox stuffs

    the Class System

    Trade Runs/Pirates

    Sea action and gliding is cool

     

    CONS:

    A whole lot of empty space it seems.

    Generic Dungeons

    Forced PVP

    Lame questing

    Tab Target Combat.

     

    I want an awesome sandbox game to come out, I hope this surprises me, but right now...I am skeptical. Currently ESO has my attention and if that ends up waning, I will move to Wildstar. A good themepark is better than a lame sandbox. not trying to be a troll I wish this game well.

     

     

     

    Now Playing: Bless / Summoners War
    Looking forward to: Crowfall / Lost Ark / Black Desert Mobile

    There would only be one way you could do PvE with no interruptions. That is to implement a mirror of the PvP area like they did with UO. That hurt UO to do that though, and would probably hurt alot more here. Reason why is I believe there is no gear degradation in ArcheAge to deal with the PvE only build up of resources. This would mean the auction house and economy would be horrible.

    Let's just say that PvE servers would not work.

    Let's just say that PvE servers would not work.

    How hard would it be to implement irreversible gear degradation on a PvE ruleset server?  Or to leave one area for PvP, but remove PvP from enough areas so that PvE players never need to go into the PvP area, much less be forced by overcrowding to build there?  Meanwhile those who want to PvP, do trade runs, and build in dangerous areas can, but no one who doesn't want to ever has to and enemy players can't invade except in the PvP area.  

    I suspect it's doable.  Whether Trion will or not, or would be permitted by the game's creators to do so, is a separate matter.  The other question is:  Is there a market for such a game, and if so, which devs are going to make a profit from it?  I think there is a market for it, and what really surprises me is how few developers have done anything to address it.

    The things this game has against it:

    1. Player collision - the most annoying thing about the game - players can push other players all across the map if they choose to do so.  Even pets are in the way.  When there are many players in an area, you bump into everyone and it just doesn't make any sense to have this in the game.

    3. The English publisher, Trion Worlds has made changes to their ruleset to reduce the player base over the rules they had with their prior games.  One of the reasons Rift was popular and still has players is because the rules opened the player base to more than one style of game play.  However with ArcheAge, the player is locked into one style by Trion Worlds.

     

    1 is good for me.

    3 I do not understand what you mean with "locked".

    Latest news is that for number 3, Trion Worlds changed it back and unlocked it within the last couple of days.  It appears the company is trying to figure out what they are going to do in that regard but for now, they are now stating it's OK to play the way you want to because their live stream stated it and I asked in a ticket just to confirm.

    I'm very sorry for those that don't know the details of what I'm referring to for number 3, but if I mentioned what it is, there will be massive trolls in this discussion trying to derail it into something the discussion is not about.  Just understand the game is now allowed to play in more than one style of game play where before it wasn't.
