Good bye BD, I still have hope someday to see another true owpvp game like Lineage in west before I die.

Whilst i enjoyed the video good production
I dont get your point, are you trying to say that everyone who plays the game should ONLY pvp, and because of that the game is pointless.
Fact is i enjoy the setting / the game, but i really CBA with so called PvP of this game, if it was pure GvG or OWGPvP then i would be interested, but most pvp that takes place in this game is actually fighting over PvE spots? How does that make sense?, to pvp over land / power etc is fair enough, but to pvp over a spot to then pve is really not a well thought out idea, of course when GvG Node wars comes in that might change, but im not so sure
But, if your saying there isn't enough to pvp, thats odd because most places have people in to fight, or is it your not looking to fight on equal or underdog status and merely find the 45-50s that are commonly known as cannon fodder?
I dont get your point?
This post is all my opinion, but I welcome debate on anything i have put, however, personal slander / name calling belongs in game
where of course you're welcome to call me names im often found lounging about in EvE online.

I do agree though, nobody asked for those changes apart for a vocal minority.
But I still enjoy the game and wait for the Node/Castle wars before I make up my mind on the PvP issue.
If it keeps generating this much controversy and frustration, the player numbers will start tanking noticeably.
Once that happens, Pearl Abyss may let go of their pipe-dream of selling a BDO distibution license for Africa, and may just lump us in with Daum's EU licence.
If there's no IP block, I'll play for sure.
My SWTOR referral link for those wanting to give the game a try. (Newbies get a welcome package while returning players get a few account upgrades to help with their preferred status.)

PKr says: PvErs are griefing me because they keep running into my spot over and over so I have to kill them to protect my spot making me turn red.
PKr also says: I'm gonna grief the PVErs spot so he kills me over and over again till he turns red.
Ummm you derps do know you are only harassing each other and then crying on the forums over it right?
The PvE players are all doing their crafting and fishing in Velia. xD
As a "carebear" myself, I am tending to side with the PVPers on this one. This is the game and you all knew it.
LOL what? Pretty sure you made a thread like a day or two before the change specifically complaining about how xp loss is extremely painful at high levels because you need so much xp per level at that point and 1% is "a few hours of grinding".
Also, there were like hundreds of people on forums asking for a PVE server, and lots of PVE'ers literally drowning themselves to avoid hitting 45 and getting pvp-enabled. They may not have been complaining about xp-loss on pvp-death directly, but it was the reason they were doing these things.
As for people ks'ing to prove that the change allows for ks'ing and trying to get Daum to change it- that's retarded. It's like pro-lifers making their wives have abortions to try to get abortion laws changed.
Can everyone please just wait two freaking days to see how Valencia and seiges/node wars works out? Pretty sure people are going to be busy enough that any nightmare-ks'ing scenarios that may or may not be happening will stop.
The irony is, the biggest complaint from the pk crowd after this patch? The PVE players could kill steal their PVE mobs from them. ROFL.
BDO, is probably not the PVP game that people make it out to be, from my perspective, the game is heavily biased towards PVE, and at level 51 i can pretty much take or leave PVP as i please, and for me, Daum are doing a pretty good job at keeping the game interesting and fun.
I wish it would have stayed as a more pvp focused game. Level 15 is a good level to start owpvp even though I would have been fine with level 1.
the game was set up so being a red player u would all ur items on death where non pvp players would only drop 3 at random which was fine penalty imo but then one patch later poof pvp non exsistance and the game pretty much no longer exsists.
To give some explanation and details about this change, here's a quick one from the DEV team.
"This change happened because, although losing EXP is not such a big thing in the first part of the game, once you've reached a certain threshold it becomes a big deal. Unfortunately if you happen to have enjoyed other games feature and don't mind to be late, players with an higher level than you can decide to kill you in chain preventing you from trying to catch up. Those players cannot become better nor grow into the game. In order to prevent that kind of issue this change has been done so that those players can survive."

I don't give a crap what Korea did, this is the NA version; pkers can go play the Korean version if you don't like it. Name one truly successful true owpvp game in NA.
For the record I love pvp, but the problem with owpvp is no one truly pvps, it is all just ganking and griefing. Controlled pvp like Daoc and Warhammer is true pvp. The purpose of the game was to fight other players, period. True open-world pvp games will NEVER work. They are an extremely niche crowd. Look at every game that ever had an open world FFA pvp server. They are always the first servers to shut down. The majority of players do not want to exist for the pleasure of idiots who get off on unfair fighting and making your play time in game as miserable as possible.
