Modes Powerplay open-only

Again, its not PVE if your intent is to impact other people and flip their systems.

Its PVP without the risk vs the people you are attacking.

And its a bunch of bullcrap you or anyone else says its a PVE activity.

Dont pee on my leg and tell me its raining.

Im not stupid, and neither is anyone else this happens to.

Pushing PvE Tokens in a PvE game sure sounds like PvE to me.

Now if you want a game with PvP based objectives that can only be influenced by PvP, CQC is good.

Not only that, in the beta livestream you had 3 developers stating how awesome it is that the BGS is influenced by any player on any mode and any platform. They love that stuff.

I didn't watch that, I'll have to find it and add it to the WoI.

Killing minions and towers in league of legends sounds like PVE to me.
 
Open only Power Play is not going to happen especially since Sandro who considered it has moved on in his life. It has been discussed in thousands of posts in multiple threads long before this one. Frontier made their decision. Still have fun talking about it. Enjoy.

It is something amazing and a really special part of this game.

The other Adam: "But more importantly than that, it represents how player's actions represent the world around them. We're talking about actions from players no matter what platform, or mode they're on"
Adam: "Yeah"
Adam & Will nodding
The other Adam: "It's all part of one shared galaxy, which is something amazing, in the same way we're doing things with exploration [...] every one is part of Elite is part of the same shared world"
Will: "Yes"
The other Adam: "And that I think is a really special part of our game"

Those who have checked out of Hotel California will now be allowed to leave. :)
 
God, I love this recurring topic, and the sameness of it all, and how emotional it makes certain people.
I suffer from schnauzer fraud.

Please, just answer the question.

You know very well the difference between PvE and PvP. If you really want, we can modify the question: Why not campaign for PP to become a direct PvP activity instead of trying to force indirect PvPers doing PvE activities into Open?

Basically, if PP is meant to promote PvP, then why not have the mechanics actually work off PvP?

Do you want the PvP to be challenging, going up against people prepared for it, battling it out, calling in wingmates, using strategy and tactics to get the kills which will help your power expand? Or, do you want to try and shoot unarmed traders who will either sucessfully run or die?

The only reason i can think you would want the latter over the former is that you don't actually want challenging PvP. You don't don't want people who will shoot back at you. I'm sure you will tell me i'm wrong in my assumption though.
 
I think those are all poor excuses. At least Maynard doesnt have a problem saying he doesnt want to get blown up or lose.

At the very least hes straight up about it. And as much as I disagree with the guy. Hes pretty straight forward about it lol.

Still he doesnt really understand why the correct people need to be blown up, the people engaged in conflict and not the others.

So I dunno, you guys figure it out. But the excuses to me are just that. Open only could go through if its how you are explaining it then it really shouldn't bother you or anyone else if they make it open only with the way you're describing it.
The correct people being blown up according to 90s:

90s in a rare moment of honesty said:
I call them rare holographic cards. I cant post what they said on the forums before I killed them. But whew lad they were salty baby. At the gnosis too.

Thats the real meaningful PVP. It was glitched for a couple hours. All modes were merged. We got to kill solo players.

We were living the dream for a couple of hours.

So what were you saying about excuses? Excuses like how Open Only BGS would be good for the game, so you can live the dream and kill solo players to get them salty baby?

Those kind of excuses? :)
 
Check out the top of this page where he flat out tells you how correct you are :)

Ah, good point. Well, i suppose its not the first time he has admitted he doesn't really want challening PvP.

Well, there are better PvPers out there, its probably scary facing them.

Maybe those guys would be up for promoting a rework of PP that was based off PvP.

You suffer from fake weiner dog? Is that some rare post-hipster condition?

Or did you mean to say you embrace your inner shaudenfreude?

Yeah, because it was organic PVP. The instance was full all in the same spot.

Just like it could be over BGS and powerplay battles.

Just like Drew Wagers Salome chase. Good guys and Bad guys.

But then when this happened, a few whinebags on these forums got caught with their pants down. And they finally got what was coming to them.

A death in a video game.

Thats right, they got some space pixels blown up Mr. Eyepatch.

And it was gratifying.

You should make a Wall of Honesty, so everytime people start to shovel you can clear the air with their real intentions.

It's my new expression for those that cannot lose something, after that something became loose.
 
Is it gluten free, fair trade, locally sourced and not GM organic?

Because regular organic could still be GM.

I dont know jockey.

Im not a hippy. I just buy something and eat it.

Or shoot it, then eat it.

Hey question.

If you shoot Birds and Deer is it PVE?

And if you shoot other people is it PVP?

Shame you cannot buy a game and just play it, instead of trying to ruin it for everyone else.

And to answer your other questions, if I want to shoot birds or deer I'll load Call of the Wild which is PvE game.
If I want to shoot players, I'll load one of my PvP games.
