Whilst I cannot disgraee with this idea, it should be a new zone, not taking 4 existing zones (with 4 task forces contained within them) and adding PVP.

No thx that is a bad Idea, there are Tf in that Zone, however they should redo it and make it a Co'op Zone for both Heroes and Villeins. I mean they not going too remove the tf form that zone just too turn it into another PVP Zone. However they can always add another Zone like the Shadow Shard and make it a pvp zone.

Also its only heroes at this moment. Wouldnt it be great to make it an open pvp zone? Just implement stuff there so people are willing to go there. But with a warning that you can get atacked by other players. Would be nice if there is something like the old protect your sg base kind of stuff. but then with whole zones that you can atack or protect. And afcourse with rewards that justify it for people to be there. You can have a full pvp and pve game next to eachother where you just can choose to be in an epic pvp battle or just do pve stuff in other zones. |

No thanks.
I've always been in favor of making the shard a Co-Op zone but no thanks on the pvp aspect of it.
It can be difficult enough to get people to run a shard tf as it is.

Clicking on the linked image above will take you off the City of Heroes site. However, the guides will be linked back here.
First, do NOT take the following post to imply that I actually agree with Je Saist... because I almost never do. I am merely toying with the bit of math that was provided.

Okay... let's do a little math here:|

Lets also figure that for each of those 160 people you are talking about that are on-line at a given time PvPing in the window you describe, there are 10 more people who are not online. So:
160 * 10 = 1,600 PvP Enthusiasts
1,600 / 50,000 = 3.2%
First of all I do want to say I'm not interested in the PvP aspect of most games. It just doesn't "work for me".
I would like to see the PvP portion of the game stronger for those that do like it. Even though they are a smaller portion of the population, I do have friends within the game who do enjoy PvP and don't want to take that away from their enjoyment of the game. That being said, I don't think making the Shadow Shard a PvP zone works. I think making it a Co-op zone is more desirable, at least in my mind.

Didn't we have a Dev (Ex Libris), someone who has access to real numbers rather than personal observations -state- we hit 10%? For some reason I'm more inclined to believe that than Je troll or anyone else's figures made up after -their- own personal and small analysis.|

Also, you weren't counting zone play, which probably had more than the ladder. You could do all the math in the world but the fact is that we have evidence compared to what people -think- they saw and making up rough estimates.

PvP Redux is discontinued, for obvious reasons. Thanks to everyone who helped and joined.
Regular PvP participation was at its highest during i7, according to Ex Libris. As of i10, she had posted that regular PvP population had dropped to just above ten percent of the total player population.
"the reason there are so many sarcastic pvpers is we already had a better version of pvp taken away from us to appease bad players. Back then we chuckled at how bad players came here and whined. 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
