Guild Wars 2

GW2 has a huge, beautiful PVE world. Its such a waste if not using it to the fullest.

I want an open world PVP instance.

Dont be confuse with PVE. Yes we still have PVE.

PVP world is similar to PVE world, same Tyria.

Player can switch anytime, to play in PVE or PVP world. Example, uhh too many gankers, i switch to PVE world. uhhh i want more challenge, switch to PVP world.

The difference, PVE use megaserver, while PVP is not. example 1 map, can fill 100 players, if its full, player need to que to enter PVP map.

In PVP server, player can kill each other even at the town (same guild and party cant kill each other)

Guild fight other guild to claim town, settlement and waypoints. Later they can tax the visiter.

The best guild is the guild that has the most points. capturing a town/waypoint/settlement over time will give you points. the pvp will use pve/wvw gear.

and of course a guild that bought expansions will have more map to conquer. giving more reasons to buy expansions.

for reward, its up to anet to decide, but make it worth it.

Use to play an open world pvp game, it was pretty kitten fun when you have abut 20 v 20 People over a map boss, normally the fights last ages and sometimes the boss never gets killed as everyone would get whiped. That being said the population was no where near that of this game and I am sure people would qq in no time at all.

it is recommended to do pve thing like boss monsters in pve instances/world.

Pvp instances/world is for capturing town, settlement, waypoints. i dont think there will be any qq because there is pve instances/world to choose

Since we already have WvW, I’d rather the Devs spend time and resources on something else.

Good luck.

Im bored of wvw map.

Since we already has Pve map, why not?

Wvw is about server, while this open world pvp instances focus on guild

Which guild is the best in ranking?

I’ve talked about this before in the WvW threads. Open world instances would allow the GvG folks to have a place to do what they want. Its awesome in many ways. Rivalries creep up, there is always a level of danger around every corner. Course that type of system generates trolls really quickly.

If we had the option of either PVP servers or a PVP flag I would sign up for that in a heartbeat.

You mean like how WoW did it?

i played a game with open world pvp but i hated the implementation because you could attack anyone except players in your party which meant only 5 players were safe from the AOE cluster****. Allowing guilds will improve it a bit but that just means you will have big guilds zerging it and no way for a solo or small groups to join up easily to fight others.

As mentioned by another poster we already have wvw and id rather ANET spend resources fixing the current issues out there.

The GW2 WvW setup is very well done imo. With 3 worlds fighting it over a huge map.

So why do you want to ruin our mode?? WvW is what you are asking for. Open Word Peer vs Peer!!!

i would love to pvp in huge gw2 pve maps.

You mean like how WoW did it?

did u even read it?

player can switch between pve and pvp world any time.

so if group of gankers attack you and stalk you around, u can switch to pve world and can leveling safely.

purpose of pvp world was for capturing town, camps, waypoints for ppt and guild fame

wow, best idea i hear for long time, open pvp world best and funny ever!

WvW is dead.

Remove WvW servers and add open PvP Tyria. That would be fun. It could be like WvW. As the OP stated, guilds could claim outposts/cities and attempt to defend them. By holding an outpost someone in Arah let’s say, your guild could gain MF bonuses or something in the area that surrounds it, ect.. ect.. I would spend hours and hours in to this game mode. It would easily replace WvW.

Probably something that would never happen but it would be fun.
Reminds me of old Ultima Online days.

How is WvW dead, and how can you make such a statement when you don’t even post there? It’s like me, an hrxcore spvp player, saying pve is dead..

WVW will stay.

Just make seasons. There is a time all player play WVW tournament.

There is a time players play open world Tyria Pvp for guild ranking. Also seasoning tournament.

Variety

How about the PvP lobby being open PvP?

Idk , it would be too much like GTA V online and the random killers on that game make me paranoid w/o passive on.

There’s a reason why anet split structured pvp, open pvp and pve.
I’m not interested at all to be killed while I’m walking around the maps trying to find points of interest, events and bosses.
It will become: who want to pve can’t why there’s people that kill them while they want only to explore the map and level up.

I already hate to do all the wvw jumping puzzle and fail ten times just why there’s someone on the end of it that CC me down, forcing me to repeat all the puzzle again and again. I will no more play in pve if I0ll not even be able to play in peace.
And anyway there’s not a single reason to fight in pve. Everyone obtain the reward from every mobs/boss he hit, then there’s not a “steal the reward” chance for who come ti kill you. is basicly useless.

And to do massive and open world pvp, there’s the wvsw, that work really good.

would be pretty freaking awesome. Would certainly give pvp players a reason to go into PVE a little…. If it turned into something like UO where the PvP players protected theyre pve spawners, give better loot in the open PvP server to encourage people to risk playing it and possibly dying.

again i say all this but we both know there are too many entitled brats that will fight against anything that might give pvp players something nice. Because they are too “paranoid” about dying in a video game where you cant even be looted….

“i dont want people greifing me while im fighting monsters”

They arent greifing you….. they arent bullying you. Its a game they happen to enjooy fighting other players, you happen to enjoy pressing 1 in a corner.

Ultima Online PvP was the best ive ever played, Massive fights where pve players and pvp players get in on the action. What made it magical is both pve and pvp players needed each other. Pve players needed PvPers to protect them from the other pvpers and PvPers need pvers to make sure it didnt take an hour to kill the spawn.

Best time ive ever had in a video game

Literally, “a player beginning play on his first day”, could load in to his tier 1 WvW server and notice that very few people were in the map to the point that it was boring and difficult to find action happening.

I get into fight like those every Friday. I undrtsbad that the mode is a shell of its old self buy the devs are busting their kitten off to improve it and thus far they have don’t a pretty good job. As a matter of fact, WvW is 100% better now than during S1 or 2.

i would like a server that u can PK anyone in the open world. ill also pay to get in.

I would love that, specially if it supports GvG.

As a pvper, who pvp’s to kill players. (not this 3 point musical chairs you have us playing A-net.) I’d be happy with just a toggle “PK mode” button.

You push it you know your ready for a fight! You are prepared to hunt or be hunted! Maybe auto guild ally?

Not sure if we really need to instance everything…

I think this is a great idea especially since it requires so little dev work. It would be great for guilds as they will be able to take land and have to defend it if they make the sub regions of a map the area that is captured. I think it would also be cool if whichever guild owned a section of land could make gold off of it somehow which would keep the incentive to capture and hold land and not just play musical chairs like WvW. It would also require large guilds to split up to defend their land so hopefully there would be more smaller fights then just one zerg vs zerg. I also like how the fights would be different in each zone as each persons level scales to that of the region.

All in all I think this is a fantastic idea as it will benefit the GvG community, roamers, and people who want a “hard mode” leveling experience which could have some achievements and titles tied to it, but that’s just a thought.
