    Wizgamer is just trying to pull off yet another troll post.

    lol PVP is not in the plans god maybe if the PvP players actually played the game they'd see how PvP would not work.  The classes are balanced for PvE, PvP would nuke entire cclasses into uselessness.  The only way PvP would work is Guild Wars and then it would nly make sense if the guilds were from seperate cities.

    I think is a newspaper style of a duck ::::01::

    EQ2 is not getting PvP anytime soon because of a very obvious reason ---> SOE is looking for the gamers' replies on the balance of the classes. Eventhough the classes look quite balanced to me (not like SOE last project SWG, where Combat Medic could kill my character (Master Swordsman/Master Rifleman) in 10 seconds using disease and poison against my mind bar, if you know what I'm saying::::01::)

    PvP is a very tricky side of any MMO. it needs final tweaking and SOE will probably take some time and finally establish few PvP servers (EQ1-style), with guild charts (GW-style), with player statistics (UT2004-style), with some purpose to kill others (DAoC-style).

    Everything what i said here, is coming from my brain, nothing is based on SOE official information, so take it as only my ideas

    SOE didn't want to take the time to balance the classes so they just scrapped the whole concept of PvP.

    as much as i hate to hear it, this is so true. but, it also saves them the trouble of what happened in SWG...so in my eyes they had the right idea here.

    The problem is if they balance for PvP then it unbalances PvE, there's unfortantly no real happy medium.   Look at other games balanced for PvP, entire character class sets are never used because they're not PvP'able.  Sony's avoided this thankfully.  I have no doubt that pvP in some form is gonna come, open pvp? I unless they want to throw off their game I couldn't see happening, there's really no reason someone from Qeynos should be killing other Qeynosian citizens unless they're in a guild war and even then thats sort of out of the storyline.  Guilds want city prestigue, not to be known as murderers of their own people ya know?

    SOE having plans for PvP?  Ahh he must be talking about this post. Oh wait, no, maybe he's talking about this post.

    Hmm, if it's not one of those posts, we definitely need the link.

    i hope that was meant to be sarcastic dsorrent...those posts were from players and this is what the mods said...

     

     

     

    Because there is no PVP, no plans for it, multiple threads about it, and they historically become flamewars of left to thrive.  Sorry.

     It's simply a feature we decided not to include in EverQuest II. As you point out, there are a lot of options for PvP fans in other SOE games.

     

    My point below still stands:

    Why is PvP so important to so many people? Do these people make up for their real life inadequacies by squashing someone else in-game?

    Sorry, I didn't mean to offend. I realize I could've phrased what I said better, my apologies. I'm merely perplexed as to why alot of people find PvP so important.

    Just not possible as it is now, skill trees and and whole lot of things would need to change from the ground up.

    As a warden lvl 23 I really doubt any 3 lvl 23 non healer classes could take me out together, and I assume it is the same for furys or Inquisitors and other ones that heal very good and have decent DPS.

    I love the guy on that thread from the official forum who said "then why the hell did I buy this game then?" when faced with the simple fact that there will be NO PvP in EQ2.

    I suppose the simple answer is "because you didn't bother to read any of the posted information before making a purchase, you chump".

    Isn't that the whole reason why people play EQ2? Because they're not qualified to be in the big d*** club?

    Very honest of you to admit it though.

  • crzybrtndrcrzybrtndr Member Posts: 94

    One thing I will never understand is why people continue to buy and play and then whine about a game being all PvE...they should have taken the time to look into it first and if it didn't have that PvP aspect that is so important to them NOT BUY IT.  Same goes for people who whine about not wanting PvP in PvP centered games.

    Do NOT come to the forums and whine about wanting a feature that was INTENTIONALLY left out of the game.  If that feature is so almighty important to you then go play a game that is designed for it.  Common sense people, common sense.

    Err, why was my post deleted? If I remember correctly all I asked what kind of PvP EQ2 would get and what kind of PvP EQ1 had... whats so bad about that?

    If your not being sarcastic, is there any real reason to actually reply to this thread?

    Oh right. And I bet you've played EQ2 for days on end to test if that's true right?

    What? You haven't played it at all?

    Wow. So how can you make such statements?
