Fruitpunch Posted February 6, 2009 Author Share Posted February 6, 2009 Okay which do you prefer, Player vs. Environment, or Player vs. Player?For me I can do both if they are well executed but I prefer PvP to PvE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna Comnena Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 In general, or for Eclipse games?In general I think PvP adds a great aspect and dimension to multiplayer games, but unfortunately it never works too well. For Eclipse games, PvP is a mistake because you will never have the player populations to properly support full PvP systems, unfortunately.So PvE for the general construct of the game design, with PvP placed as an extra optional activity, is the ideal.

DragonFire Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 it depends on the game and the person playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Techno 5.0 Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Pvp can be really fun if the players dont hackand if skills are well balancedand if there are enough players (4 vs 4) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doomsalad Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Ya pvp is awesome…If everything is fair and stuff....Mass pvp's are awesome but laggy too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alster Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 I prefer to level first using PvE (to get a feel for the game) then switch to PvP - either by transferring accounts or starting a new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hence Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 PvE is completely boring, ganking n00bs is the best… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doomsalad Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 PvE would probably be better for beginners. Then, as you increase in your levels ( or whatever) you can begin pvp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alatar Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 PvE is kinda boring, and PvP is awesome if is well designed.Anyway, from my point of view, a game have to join both of them.Even PvPvPvP… (massive pvp) is the best of all :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minipimp Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 personally i like Pve IF its with older mature players , its fun but on some accusations can get boring.Pvp–--Fun and at the same time shows of the skills of the players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khachaturian Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 PvP for ever, its just so much funner to me to fight real players instead of predictable NPC's, I mean if the PvE is really, good then i'll go for it,but most of the time PvP just tends to be more fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skell Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I hate playing PvE alone since it is just you against some random bots from the game while when I play PvP alone I know that I just owned another player instead.So PvE shall be very balanced and require teamwork for my liking.PvP shall be very, VERY balanced and make teamwork the best option.Also all up to date MMORPGs FAIL! The End! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 PVP ftw.Its so much more fun.Because you get to know your like…not going up against a computer? haha.Its so much more satisfying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonFire Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 The problem with only PVP allot of games now days you don't get exp from PVP that and you cant really PVP at level one you have to get to well in most games anyways you have to get to level 30+ in many games I mean some you can PVP at level one but you will get owned that is why and there are many things you can do in PVE that you cant in PVP and vise versa. One of them in PVE is the fact that you have bosses you have massive amounts of monsters you can join a party and cauase more damage to a lower skill level of enemy if you think about it party PVE is kinda like Co-Op mode one of the must haves for me at least in PVP is to have a number of different modes say Race Vs Race FFA Guild Wars(Not Meaning The Game) etc etc. Basically my point is to most PVP and PVE need to be balanced if not equal to one another oh and considering most of you prefer PVP over PVE why doesnt everyone here just play something a MMO perhaps like Runes of Magic or Chronicles of SpellBorn or even SilkRoad and Voyage Century see who is really good a PVP and or PVE.and my last point is that some games have bad PVP and PVE some have good so you cant really compare a feature like that without a spusific game becouse who knows most people will probably not be thinking of the same games. And yes the basics of MMORPGs are pretty much the same but its the fine lines that determine who likes what and which is better then the other.
