World of Warcraft
SirHardHead:
From reading this thread i have seen that:
* People enjoy the ability to kill others within honor range.
* People don't to get killed over and over by players much higher than they are.
* People enjoy the fact that you can kill anyone in any pvp area.
Possibly they could grade areas like runescapes(old?) wilderness.(I hear they removed PvP?)
As you go to higher level areas in WoW you would be able to pvp against higher/lower level players.
This might prevent a high level player coming and senselessly killing lower level players.
This is just a thought and i am not saying this is how it should be. :-)
Ozymandias:
^ Which actually brings up a good point about why WoW's PvP is fucked.
The areas are sectioned off according to level, but they've actually done the opposite of that. It is actually easier for higher level characters to kill lower level characters in the areas that the lower level characters are supposed to be in. Leinad suggests going back to your nearest faction base, but faction base guards have levels according to the level of the area. So a level 70 character will actually have an easier time killing someone in a level 30 zone, because the guards are at most level 55 or so.
How does that make sense? If the faction guards are intended to create a safe zone, why scale them at all? A safe zone of level 70+ guards is safer than 55, and they'll kill someone of the other faction whose level is appropriate for the area just as quick.

I heard about this and I found it amazing the lengths they went to to remove all player interaction from thier mmo.

I can see what you mean about wanting to be able to pvp but not constantly be ganked, it's like wanting your cake and still having cake to eat later.
It comes with the territory but the bottom line stands, if you can't take it on the chin when a lv67 comes over and sticks you, laughs then proceeeds to stab you in the face when you are lv 43 then you just obviously aren't cut out for PvP, roll PvE and then do battlegrounds.
I only get pissy about the bunch of people who complain and try to define PvP, It isn't always kill on site for everyone, but alot of the time it is and the point I stress is if you cannot deal with this then roll PvE because PvP is what it is not just what you want it to be.
I'm at i34 in a aircraft hangar sized hall with 2000 other gamers, loads are doing arena in WoW and a few are on AoC PvP servers killing people and grouping with others.
Call it dickery if you want but I feel the real dickery is people who complain.
Leinad:
EH, I still don't have much of a problem with corpse-camping. It has happened to me, and I do it to others, and if it gets really frustrating I remember, it is just a game. So it doesn't really bother me.
