The unavoidable poll: PvP vs PvE!

What is more important for you: PvE or PvP?

  • PvE

    Votes: 609 83.3%
  • PvP

    Votes: 122 16.7%

  • Total voters
    731
  • Poll closed .
It's an important clarification indeed. I confess I understood the first proposal :)

Then again, I honestly can't decide. I tried, really. Took a step back, thought about the way I play. I don't do that much PvP because I'm a loner and loners don't use wings (slogan for free here), but I enjoy it tremendously when I get into it. I always play in open, I enjoy player interactions, not only fights, and the game would not be the same for me should any of these elements disappear. But I tried to answer your question, I swear I tried :)

Thanks.

Apparently I really need to work on my wording in English to avoid these misunderstandings :x
 
Well, I guess if someone really enjoys both modes exactly the same, the poll is really not for them. I assumed that even if someone likes both playstyles - like I do - they'd still have a slight preference for one over the other, a slightly higher priority - also true in my case - without having to dismiss the other one as worthless.

I do understand what you're asking, but any preference I may have depends entirely on my mood. That the game can cater to my various and many mood-swings is part of what makes it great for me :)

You're right, the poll isn't really for me and I did state earlier that I wouldn't vote in it, but being a public forum I thought I should expand a bit on that and share my thoughts.
 
Well there would literally be no game without PVE so if I had to choose one it would be PVE.

That said I also enjoy PVP and PWP but am not keen on PPP/PPI - though I'm reliably informed several times a day that I can get "compensation" for that - so it's all good!

ETA - I didn't vote.

You guys are proving that a civil and respectful discussion about this much debated topic is indeed possible, even if opinions don't align.

Thanks for that! [heart]
 
"Do you want coffee or tea"

"Yes please"

(It's a Bolean thing, don't fight it...)

Coffee||Tea =/=coffee && tea. :)

Then you don't understand the polarised views. Even the most ardent PvPer doesn't want npcs removed.

Examing the two extremes through a poll would look like this:

Stongly believe in PvP/PvE environment VS Strongly believe in PvE only environment

*sigh* Ok, imagine it reworded thus:

"If you have a personal priority between PvP and PvE, which would it be? If you don't then have a nice day".
 
It is my impression that many do not read the OP before posting. They only see PvE or PvP and start up the ole opinion generator. Opinions are great, that's why we all have one! :D But, please do read the OP friends.

BREAK BREAK

I think we can all agree that this forum has more PvE players than PvP players.

Really poor poll. I believe many players would fall in a "both" category.

Looks like it's time for another pole then! :p
 
Still would need a new category:

"Neither - they are equally important."

No, it doesn't. For those who feel that way no answer is sufficient. The poll's not abt finding out how many people have a central point of view. It's abt.finding out how many feel strongly one way or another. Players with a central view have no impact on the poll, thus there's no selection for them.
 
I don't think that is universally true. I PvP (as well as all the other aspects of the game) and that is not my motivation or the motivation of those I fly with.

CQC can be fun, but it is very different to combat in the main game. There are skills involved in fighting in larger ships, and different skills needed fighting 1v1 or 4v4 and in much larger wing fights. Learning, developing then testing these skills is a rewarding activity.


Because those who genuinely just want to "blow others to smithereens" (Not talking about player-pirates here), are not interested in competitive combat. They're interested in making someone elses' day a misery.
 
Wow, stopped by to see how the poll was progressing.

88.41% priority on PvE

that.. is.. impressive.

I had made a personal bet that it would be like 65 / 35 or something..

but 88 / 11 DAYAM!

Has to be said it's starting to get to the proportions where it can no longer be dismissed as merely more PvEers on the forums.... that's approaching a 90% decisive line where it might be worth considering if future development plans are going to satisfy that demand.

There are still a few of us that have abstained from the vote because we like both.
I wouldn't want to see either disappear from the game
