"Open Only" is a panacea for the "problem" here:
One of these days, I really need to get around to making a flow chart that demonstrates all the various and myriad ways “Open Only” advocates can use PvP to defend a faction they support against an attack.
Until then, here’s a preview:
“Anything You Do That Isn’t PvE” => “I Win”
Seriously, if you’re not doing PvE to counter my actions, then I win every time. More than likely, you’ll never be instanced with me, despite the fact that I play in Open. Unless you live near me, have a similar non-traditional work schedule, and play on the same platform, you’ll never encounter me. On the off chance we do get instanced, you still can’t win. The way the BGS works, it’s fairly trivial to set up a Xanatos Gambit, were if I get past you, I win, but if you kill me, you lose worse.
PvP in Open needs an implementation.
Or does it?
Is PvP already implanted?
Why so?
Where is PvP focus in Open?
If PvP is not, why allow it in the fist place?
Is PvP in Open an abuse?
At last, you can (be) hardly allowed to create a play stile out off of threaten involuntary players?
Or can you?
Are PvP players abused in Elite Dangerous Open mode?
To be, and not to have any right to be there?
