As Jrp said- I'd rather have more quests.

Read what Tolero has posted.

You can turn off the Challenge System.

Only thing annoying here is people's inability to read.

For instance, George and Bill are having a disagreement over which Gelatinous Cube to kill first, after 2 minutes of bickering back and forth, Bill sends George an invite to the pvp pit to settle it once and for all. 1 1/2 minutes later, Bill and George arrive back in the quest, Bill being a little more agreeable on things.

u know that bings another questoin, if loose hp and spen sp in pvp, and tele back to quest are they lost? is pvp tavern regen, and what about death in pvp, if u die there do u have to res out there or are put bakc where u were with 1hp?

if You're Not In The Mood To Accept Challenges, You Can Turn On/off Challenge Acceptances In Your Options Panel At Any Time! otherwise, You Can Leave It On And See Who Picks A Fight As You're Making Your Way Around The Various Public Spaces!

:d

You can't be in the same group to challenge the other person

So in all the bickering everyone failed to notice Tolero's new sig

Ok, thank you for the quick answer.

Could it be coming in April? Was having trouble believing that it was coming anytime soon because of the lack of any news on that front.

Darn, wish you could fight while in a group. Would have been a new way to win raid loot!

**Renegade66** · 03-25-2009, 05:06 PM

DDO has PvP? That's too bad, but does explain a lot. Whatever makes DDO profitable is fine with me though. I can put aside my personal desire for more content rather than PvP that I will never use as long as it helps keep DDO viable.

that is the logical way to look at it, I mean personally I hardly ever pvp, but it is always good fun to hop into a pvp pit especially when the devs spawn stuff

I could not agree more with you. Maybe do something about the lag instead of introduce something that will just start porting people all over...bad idea and a waste of time IMO.

1) Hoping the option is defaulted to 'OFF' - have enough stuff to arrange/toggle/adjust with each new char.

2) PvP tends to lead to smack talk, and for a lot of folks just being around it is not pleasant. If General is going to reach more screens, that's going to be compounded.

But that said, my boy likes to PvP with his friends. He'll like/use this feature.

So basically the opinions of my 2 accounts cancel each other out.

People seem to forget there are alot of reasons why Turbine would keep things quiet. They do care for this community more than most people are willing to admit. There are times when business is business.

I am hopeful for the new module not for my sake but the community as a whole. Everyone that posts here, no matter how they might disagree, are here because they love the game. Otherwise, they just would not bother.

Am I enthralled with this new info, no, I won't lie. But, every new module they have released has been fun. Even if not succesful for the masses, it was still a blast at the time, at least for me it was.

I might use it from time to time... I wish we could use landscape outdoor explorer areas for pvp tho... that might make things more amusing.

Imagine a 12 vs 12 guild brawl in the cerulean hills

Sure, PvP isn't for a majority of the average DDO folks, but it's got a following. I don't PvP, largely because my experiences have been lots of short, quick deaths at the hands of the uber-equipped (or much higher levelled). I think killing some time with guildies in PvP or friends will be cool though, especially with the nice interface this seems to be getting. I don't know, it may actually motivate me to PvP!

I think DDO should offer all sorts of things, including stuff I'm not into.

Personally, one of the best benefits of PvP has been it's impact on testing things out, making videos and other stuff. So there are ancillary benefits to this change as well. Having a private arena-like instance to "film" stuff will be cool as well. Or hold contests/giveaways/rp nights/etc.

What is the current limit for PvP? Is is six, 12, unlimited?
