Please subscribe/sign to this thread If you would like to see this happen. I'm new to the forums and dont know if a thread like this has already started (please attach link if so).

If the Devs cant make this happen why not just rename a current server with low population "Player Vs Player" and we can utilize the free server transfer. It really is a good idea and would keep us complaining pvpers subdue for a least a $14.99 or whatever I pay a month for this game.

You wouldnt like to see a totally pvp based server? All my toons are on freedom and I enjoy it there, but if all of us pvp players had a home to call our own we wouldnt need to rep out our server hoods and trow our gang sign on the forums.

No, I actually wouldn't. The nice thing about a full regular server is that its easy to farm IOs and accolades, as well as PL. The economy on a pvp only server would probably be dire at best.

No, I wouldnt like that. Because if all PvP-ers went there it would separate the playerbase clearly into PvP-ers and non-PvP-ers, where you have to decide by picking a server.
Which is admittedly close to the current situation, but not how it was intended, or should be, imo. Your idea would set it in stone instead of helping to support casual-PvP-ers or encouraging PvE-ers to try PvP.

(Also, I think that making petitions is not something the forum rules approve.)

Actually they could accommodate a pvp server.
What they end up doing is allow free transfers to and fro from that one server. After you are done you are only allowed to transfer back to server that character came from.

Hey it an idea.

Eh, I was on board for the freedom thing, untill I actually participated in 2 Arena events and RV.

Freedom RV is more of a joke than Virtue servers RV; it's Kinda sad (especially villainside).

First Arena event the scrapper, defender, blaster team left after their first wipe.

Second Arena event they left cause We had an elec/therm, lol.

Seriously, I had expected more from freedom server. I transfered back to Virtue.

Let me know when test comes back. Till then, i'll be in Virtue where we've chased all the lolfiteklubers out.

P.s. We don't need a PvP server. Cross-server instancing for PvP would make much more sense (Which essentially would be a PvP server.)

How's that? Also, basing your opinion of a server on two total matches against bad players isn't a very good idea.

I find it to be the exact opposite. I moved one toon to Virtue and one to Freedom on the same day. While I will admit Virtue doesn't seem to be quite as "clickish" for arena matches, they have still been very lol compared to Freedom. RV has even been more lol. While broadcast isn't as bad on Virtue as it is on Freedom, I haven't found people working together as a team on Virtue, at all. Pretty sad and not very competitive IMHO.

As far as fiteclub, I never see it happen on Freedom because the zone is just too busy, Virtue I have seen and interrupted fightclubs several times.

I left freedom because the community there seems to take PvP far too seriously. I don't mind trash talk, I do it all the time. However, being PMed with "**** you n- *******"

or "You're a f*ing ***" crosses the line into personal attacks.

Really isn't what I was looking for in a PvP community.

You must not be on the same time we are on. Fiteclubs rarely, if ever happen and teaming happens a great deal because we are a smaller group.

Who do you play on Virtue?

I'm used to joining a pug in Virtue's RV, calling targets and the members of my team actually cooperating as a team.

This rarely happens in freedom. You team and it's as if they're still soloing (surprisingly even in during arena matches). It's the fiteclub mentality. Probably not so much freedomers as much as the people who have transfered from other servers like Justice.

I'm easily irritated. Don't get me started on the SFs and TFs I suffered through on Freedom.

Anyway, if test server is ever resurrected I'll be more than willing to come and learn. I just don't want to put up with freedom server.

It's funny you say that. Most of the transfers from virtue seem to have the fightklub mentality on lock. I heard one guy complaining about how tanks and brutes have phase on freedom and that he was switching back to virtue because nobody actually stood and fought here.

But yeah, if you don't have tough skin (which it sounds like you don't if you let petty crap like that get to you) freedom isn't the place for you.

If someone trash talks you, your doing something right.

As far as teams, half call targets, half don't. Of the half that don't, half od those, target calling is implicit. But the other half is just, well, lets group together and try to kill more stuff.

My stalker got on a team the other night with mostly doms and a corr. Was lovely, nobody called much, but they didn't have to. I just looked for the held or knockdown guys and AS. Sharked/impaled when they started to run. Got mucho kills.

Who do you play on Virtue?
So 1) you let the baddos in the zone get to you, and 2) you didn't team up with a group of competent players for an arena match. That's not a problem with Freedom, that's a problem with bad players.

Regarding Virtue: every time I've brought my Stalker into RV there since free transfers started, it was either a group of villains camping one or two heroes (usually Scrappers or Tankers) at the hero base, or fiteklub under the statue or by the hospital in the northern part of the zone. Not one time I've been in there has there been actual organized PvP.

That's pretty close to accurate there, mac. Whenever I'd go in, the Hero scrapper squad (both of them) would get dropped two or three times, then just wait at the base until the zone emptied out again. It'd wind up as four villains farming two heroes with another scrapper waiting by the drones until everyone left.

If we knew that was the actual voice devs would listen to instead of informed, educated players we probably would have been bigger dicks back then." -ConFlict

Not so much my skin as much as I'm not interested enough in PvP to put up with the juvenile crap in order to participate competitively.

It was definitely fun and I'm still recommending folks to freedom if they are serious about PvP.

Haha. This is exactly what I saw the other day when I ventured into RV on Virtue. I stayed long enough to get one exploration badge on my corruptor and left.

It should also be known that Hot of War (of the SG, Korea) and Hero Base Drone 436-B have announced their engagement. We expect the wedding sometime next year, in the fall.

Hot is fun to farm. He's probably the most experienced running regener in the game.

hmm I'd go for cross server PvP instances/matches -- whatever it may be... so bascially a server but not

I didn't like test for pvp simply because you could have anything you want ... it should be earned -- test is for testing purposes and sadly thats the only viable but infeasible option available at the moment

I must say sure build the PvP up on freedom -- but everytime I'm over there its just like ehh yeah no thanks. Guess it could grow on me as there is some 'competent' people to play with.

As far as you virtue peeps -- you make it what it is >_< The camping thing is true generally -- but there is moments of fun every now then. However I must say that its a tug-o-war on who is camping who. Heroes out number so the villains stay put, but wait now there is more villains so the heroes are pushed back and now they wait - rinse and repeat - Its nothing new
There is life just got to know when things are goin

That was one of the two good parts about test (the other being the ability to fight anyone from any server) - you didn't need to spend lots of time or inf tweaking your build, most of the time IOs were just copied over. When you were fighting the best of the best (whether that was in team matches or duels), you had the best gear to work with, because everything was so competitive. That was never the case on the live servers, and it was implied in PvP on the live servers that everyone put in the effort to IO and accolade their characters themselves (whether that's entirely true or not is a different matter, but that's the general idea).
