I think in WoW and Tera, I can count on one hand the number of times true 1v1 open world encounters happened that were fair, and actually competitive

either I ganked someone who had like 4 mobs pulled and wasn't ready

or I was ganked by someone 10 levels above, and about 5 tiers of gear above

nothing fun, competitive, or what constitutes a "game" there

Some of the best moments in PvP have been open world.

yes and those moments in WoW were like fireflys in the summer

here and gone in a blink of an...

couldnt be sustained long term

They were a daily occurence for me in classic.

skimmed, and then read you flaming GW2

wasn't a troll... I always thought I liked open world PvP

after GW2, I'm happy there is no open world PvP... PvP has it's place in sPvP and WvW, where it makes sense, is more balanced, more fair

I dont hate GW2, I just think it had a lot of potential that went to waste.

Future setting. True open world FPS if you want some real pvp.

My biggest gripe with WoW is the daily quests. And the new expansion they basically injected steroids into the daily quest theme. That's why I'm so glad they are pretty much non existent in GW2.

Maybe WoW will adopt GW2 style dynamic groups events someday too. GW2 leveling experience is second to none.

To date, the only MMO I've played that I think got PvP right was DAoC. RvR was fucking badass. Why? Because I could be in with 1000 other people and not have to sit in some bullshit queue. Granted lag was terrible and I don't think they ever really worked out class balance but even that wasn't terrible. The PvE stuff was not all that bad either.

Create another game like DAoC, fix the buff bot issue, figure out how to not put in some cap on PvP so anybody can just jump in, and have decent PvE content. I'll gladly pay you $15/month.

Instead of daily quests being an optional part of the game like always before, they opted to make daily quests a mandatory requirement in order to progress in end game raiding/dungeons. You have to farm rep (through dailys) to purchase gear.

We're not just talking completing like 5 quests here. When Blizzard increases the amount of daily quests you can do a day to 48, that's when I don't bother anymore.

Read my post. Open world PvP that makes sense and matches you against players of similiar level for action.

Griefing happens in WoW, yea. But only terrible terrible players will get griefed repeatedly. Ive had my body camped in WoW hundreds of times. I could never understand how people cant get away...

If open world PvP is mandatory for progress, or unavoidable due to no flagging, realm choice, etc., you're going to lose out on a significant chunk of the possible player population from the start that don't care for PvP or only like to participate in it when they're in the mood. If your goal is a game where PvP is the main/only focus, I guess that would be fine, but there's a reason WoW et al. have PvE and PvP servers, and several other games limit PvP to specific areas.

This is their way of making you log in EVERYDAY! This is why bots exist.

Hmm, good point. I just liked the idea of having conflict on the border zones and having quest that actually involved players completing missions involving each other. I was picturing more of a 1v1 type of deal, with each player having a few NPC's on their side that represented similiar classes as you would see in game.

I suppose it could be made so that these quest arent mandatory, but would provide significant benefit over traditional leveling options.
