I take it you enjoy the mayhem in the grind spots in the first days of the season (before the early grad goes live)? Having, at times, more players than monsters and barely any of the latter alive to do a side quest (not to mention actually grinding for xp and silver)? And you'd want this on more channels?
The moment there's no repercusion for disrupting someone else's activity, we seem rather quick to do that. So, as long as there's resorces scarcity as a backbone of the game, you can't ditch the owpvp.
Also, if I try to interpret your answer to one of the posts, you're asking for permanent access to Olvia because you afk-train?!...
Plays PvX game with owpvp wants to change the main system in the game, gets told by devs and gms nope. Still argues with forums. :| Idk man if you get told no because it changes the devs vision maybe its the wrong game for you. You shouldnt change a games fundamentals even if they are a pain to you. Always remember a developer has final word.
Before you say its already there . Olvia servers are designed as a catch up mechanic for new players an returning players. Your PvE servers are called seasons which funny enough do the same thing a catch up mechanic to introduce you to BDO. Devs wont change it as much as you want to beg there is many many posts on PvE servers and are consistently rejected. Doesnt matter how many people want it changed on NA/EU other servers are quite content with the current system.
Edit: Before anyone brings up Japan it has the same systems still only thing is feeding to mobs as to grief someone more than i think 3 times gets a week ban. No they do not have PvE servers and also they are happy with the outcome they have got. Intentionally targetting people to feed to mobs i think they have video proof of said person doing it over a certain amount of times. Which on NA atleast we dont really have the issues Japan did have.
BDO is an open world sandbox PvX MMORPG. 2023 and people still don't know what kind of game BDO is. Also, FYI -- Horse train on a level 49 alt and you'll NEVER get PK'd. Food for thought.
Here, the devs explain the "main content of BDO" when discussin Marni's Realm.
While we heard your initial feedback on 1 hour being somewhat short, we didn’t want Marni’s Realm to end up overshadowing the main content of Black Desert, that is, fighting monsters in the open world alongside other Adventurers. Therefore, we have no plans to increase the daily limit at this time.
The word "alongside", according to Google, means "close to the side of; next to". When players fight monsters "alongside" one another, this opens up certain possibilities that wouldn't be possible otherwise. Things like Guild vs Guild wars, peaceful diplomacy over who gets the monsters, cooperation in group grind zones, Guild Alliances formed, also Guild Rivalries, it opens the door for meaningful player interaction as well, since, when seeing others in the open world while grinding, you do not know if they're friend or foe. This adds a huge layer of depth into the game and is a crux for the various types of social engagements players experience with others while grinding in the open world.
There are complaints about player killing -- well, that's what Karma is for, to deter PK, since outright PK is toxic in a vast majority of cases. Karma is served well in this regard since PK is not equivalent to PvP, as stated by the devs. However, there are other complaints where the Karma System can be abused and that is another topic entirely. Your argument is, basically, "Since people complain, why not just make a PVE server" -- and to that, I say, we don't need solutions that change the entire premise of the game, nor do we need band-aid fixes.
BDO is one of the only relevant sandbox PvX MMO's on the market right now. We don't need BDO to be another WoW clone or another Diablo clone.
my mans really out here saying people are arguing against him when everyone is just pointing him towards PA offical stance lmao
I'd rather see something for loyal players that's like Olvia.
Something like "be active 3 months in a row, get 2 months of Veteren Olvia Server" something like.
