They have open world PVP. It's called Shadow Wars. Find a area where there's a shadow war going on. Then just join and start shooting people.
There are many players who enjoy playing the PvE and being killed over and over again without being provoked is just down right annoying when all you wanna do is complete the damn quest. This also opens a can of worms, where higher lever players will exploit lower level players which in time will create a bad culture. That's never a good thing.
Trion has tried their best to satisfy both, PvE and PvP. So there really is no need for a Bounty system. Sure it will make the game interesting but there are lots of other content in the game. It's only beta atm and many of the features have been disabled. IMO, the bounty system will add more problems then solve. =)
There are some people who like problems and challenge. That's why I said separate servers, PVP and PVE. Open world PVP for people who choose more problems.
WOW would fail without open world PVP. Open world PVP works with factions, but will fail without it, just like Age of Conan.
Look at games like Guild Wars 2.. awesome PVE and PVP battlegrounds, but it grew stale without open world PVP. PVP will keep people play longer than PVE.
Fear can be exciting, constant fear is exciting. This is why people like zombies and adrenaline junkies. Be glad you brought friends.
i dont see this being a good idea. i understand pvp can make things fun to an extent however i will say look at WarZ. yes its a dayz sort of ripoff however look at how bad that game is doing. it sank faster than a lead balloon especially after the game informer article on it. The lead dev/owner sent emails out to those of us that tried to play it apologizing to us about how crappy of a job he has done since the game got "huge" having a large influx in paying players. it was horrible
that is a great and crappy idea, to be quiet frankly ganking each other without any motive is horndogs. I would say how about open pvp invites, means you can challenge someone in the open, if they accept you can right away hit it on. but as far as pvp arenas its actually very nice and requires more than 1on1 combat!
WarZ's failure had nothing to do with the PvP.
It was a horrible game. POINT.
Now to move on, this is why I suggest PvP servers with the outlaw system implemented.
You don't NEED to join them, but you can if you want.
So you want it to be like red dead redemption style friendly and non friendly servers? It can work sometimes but I think the world might be too big in this game
if you want PvP play Eveonline.
DCU Online did this and it work good for ppl so diehard pvp players can stll duke it out in groups or one on one in the pve zone after it's all done the winner can brag abut it and hav ppl there to see it
