Open world PvP areas?
Hey guys, I would like to know how you all feel about some areas having open world PvP? I would actually really like to see this because I think it would make the "open world" feeling of the game a bit more expansive and realistic, but how do you feel about it? I'd love to be able to team up with a few people and just go dominate the unlucky loners that happen to cross my path. I'm not saying make every area like this, but have at least one area on each planet, for example on Earth in that little area that you have to walk through to get to the ogre camp everyone discovered in the beta, have just that little area be open PvP. I would probably make it so you can't steal anything from the other guardian. Just make it so you can kill him then he may respawn with no penalty. And possibly be able to turn off PvP for about 10 minutes if you've died more than 3 times within 10 minutes or something. Toss around your feedback, opinions, and some ideas about this concept and maybe Bungie will like what we come up with and implement it if this thread gets popular enough.

Need an open world first brah

PVP in a PVE zone would end up as a feeding frenzy for the griefers. We had it happen in Tabula Rasa as a test and it was a disaster. most of the PVP players jut waited till someone got into a fire fight with the Mobs then cut them to ribbons. In other cases you would have some high level guys camping the low areas just to pick off the new players. PVP needs to stay separate from PVE. been there in many games that tried it and it ended as a huge mess. If you want open world PVP go play planet side 2.

I like it. It can be rationalized by the inter-faction struggles for in-game logic. Must have a faction banner equipped and that is the "team" you are on.

1 ReplyOk I've looked at a lot of the comments ad they are pretty mixed so I've decided to explain this in three ways: cold facts, group opinions, and my personal opinions. Ok, let's begin. The basic facts all revolve around how this would fit in with the rest of the game. The game is all about the guardians fighting TOGETHER against the darkness. An area with random pvp doesn't fit that description. For example, the only area with pvp is the crucible and it's to test your skill against other guardians. Now to talk about people's opinions. Obviously this topic was started by someone who wanted to have open world pvp. But only a few people supported it. On to my opinions. I honestly am neutral to the idea of being able to battle it out with groups of people, so I have to play devil's advocate for both sides. If favor of it: it would be an easy way to complete crucible bounties. Against it: it wouldn't be fun to keep getting killed by level 28, exotic wielding pros. So if you agree or disagree with what I am saying please post a reply. Thank you, MONSTER007X

This would be awwwwesome...

No! No no a thousand times noooooo!! I know there are people that will like this and for those people make an entire world with no tie to the story in any form or fashion to put missions in the game that force players to go there, aside from if they want to complete crucible "kill x amount of this class" bounties. Don't make it a forced aspect of the game in any way, let's make it and know it's there but ultimately give all the hardcore pvpers their own little space cause I want noooooo part in it.

Everyone save your supers.

Edited by Depressed Horse: 9/28/2014 11:10:46 AMI say they just make it an add-on extra piece of land to each planet, and have an option to go into a big arena. Slightly similar to roman ones. Then pvp it with up to 16 players. (If everyone on the planet joined) Itd be a nice fun something to do while patrolling the cosmodrone.

2 RepliesDoes not fit in game fiction since all guardians are on the same side. Also does not seem like it would benefit the games "open world" feel if you want to fight people you have the crucible. if you don't want to be hassled you have the patrols and story missions. would make more sense to make more open area crucible matches that utilize semi random event style objectives. To keep players on the move, like a free for all or team scavenger hunt if you will. What would help the "open" feeling of the game are some actual locations to explore, wide expanses or ruined cityscapes.

Actually a great idea. That would make the journey much more tense in my opinion

2 RepliesI'm not sure how guardians randomly killing each other would fit in the universe but it might be cool, I just want custom game lobbies. Like nearly every other competitive shooter ever.

Open world pvp, not everywhere but some areas would be great fun!
-
Sounds fun to make things less boring but it won't happen

11 RepliesBungie doesn't care about its community. They only case about statistics like the money they're making and how many play their game. Instead of fixing server disconnects they're having players teach other players how to fix the problem so they don't have to and then they're recording and displaying total hours logged by players. They don't care what's wrong with their game or about US that's the bottom line.

4 RepliesUh.. That sounds gay as fk actually. [i]I'd like to go get some buddies and kill solo's.[/i] You hurt small animals too don't you, anything that cant fight back. As long as going into said open world PvP zone is entirely optional, doesn't matter one bit to me though.. Put six of them Zones in the game!

Edited by Lord Commissar: 9/20/2014 8:20:29 PMYes. Make the fire team size 6 and have high level enemies, better chances of getting good loot and legendary/exotic upgrade resources. Plus make a real penalty for dying such as dropping some glimmer and random inventory (not gear) items when you die. This creates a high risk/reward area and adds longevity to the game. To prevent nubs from accidentally entering the area you can make it so it's a separate area on the map that must be accessed from orbit. Due to the nature of open world pvp the meta will likely be different as well. Currently you're handycapping yourself in the crucible by using anything other than an auto rifle/shotgun due to the close range nature of the maps and lack of long sight lines. In the open world however the meta would likely favor pulse rifles and scout rifles in most areas. This gives people an opportunity to actually use more than 2 weapons in a pvp environment.

Edited by tombok90: 9/20/2014 5:02:15 PMYes! Put earth hive cave in open pvp spots, and some named spawns that have an ultra rare chance of dropping good loot. Also materials such as helium coils spawn more quickly

/sign would be amazing

Why not just enable Friendly Fire during Patrol?
-
I am interested in the idea, but I can already see HUGE holes in the execution. How would you know you've wondered into a PVP zone? Would your weapons scale like they do in Crucible or is it unchanged? And is its unchanged, how do you ensure that a level 20+ can't 100% MUTILATE a level 12 that wandered in? A better idea, in my opinion only, is that instead there is an ongoing fight on all the planets full maps that you can join through the crucible. Everyone joining can see what their getting into and you can have a HUGE amount of players fighting each other on different planets with scaled weapons.

Although it's an interesting idea I don't think it would fit with the lore. Unless in the future there will be an option to fight as bad guys. Fallen seem like a good race/faction to explore...
-
Okay this would be simply amazing. Although sniper would be the only way to go unless you were in one if the buildings or tunnels. Still though how incredible. I would love to play that.

4 RepliesRemember how awesome it was in GTA to be doing your own thing and some douche comes up and kills you over and over? That's right.....

I don't know wether or not you've played WoW, but they have a genius system for world pvp. They allow you to turn on pvp, and then if you decide to turn it off, you have to wait 5 minutes for it to go away so people can't just wimp out mid-fight. I think this would be cool with the factions in the game. Make it so you are friendly with those wearing your faction class item, then have faction wars. I'd totes be in that
