PvP- I don't want it!

[Alsh]

It seems that PvP is here to stay, which I find disappointing. I know some players enjoy it but equally, many of us do not.

I have no interest whatsoever in PvP. I started playing TSO partly because there was no sign of it. I was unhappy about the idea of it coming to TSO as I felt it would change the atmosphere of the game. The initial bugs, the terribly high cost, the poor loots all confirmed my thinking that PvP was not for me. I know I'm far from the only player to think this. Just look at chat every time a PvP related update occurs proves that.

I also don't like the focus that BB have lately been putting on PvP. The updates, the rankings, making it almost compulsory to get the top items in the last event. We were told it would be optional but it's starting to feel it's compulsory in order to progress in the game. Please, BB, don't make this happen!

My suggestion is an ability to switch all things PvP off- maybe an option in the Globe symbol at the bottom. This would remove EVERYTHING to do with PvP, including achievments, quests, build options- all of it. Except the Globe icon where it would be possible to switch it all back on again for those who have a change of heart.

1. "The initial bugs": Only a very few left.
2. "The terribly high cost": Try reading this - argument shot to pieces here: http://forum.thesettlersonline.net/t...vP...some-math
Conclusion from above thread is - you break even after 1.4 to 2.1 days owning the island. (A lot sooner, when you become more experienced.)
3. "The poor loots": That goes for normal adventures too.

Why make another one of these threads? How hard can it be to ignore, what you do not want to play?

Expedition islands is the best feature added, since I began playing.

Which in reply to ksinori is why it is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore for those of us who do not want it and want more original core content

I'm still new to the game and haven't tried any pvp yet as guildies told me bad things about it. So i think I'm still neutral on pvp and will decide later on. But, somehow I dont like the new ranking button, it's just useless button to link us to a new page. Can BB just put the link button to ranking inside the globe button?

While I understand that it may seem at this time like the game is introducing PvP content only, more features focusing on other game functions are in development.

We should reveal more information on this during the upcoming weeks.

Thanks Ravel, I do hope pvp/achievements will be included in future events too? its nice to have some diversity to them...

i think the point is we are not saying we don't want pvp, we know some ppl enjoy it, just stop forcing it on us. the new "link to 10 random players" button next to the star menu is just ridiculous and free game or not bb have no excuse for such poor design!
