To Solo Play Players: If You Could Disable PVP, Would You Play in Open Play Mode Instead?

[varonica]

No, I don't.



Nice, I have a cool video for you. You don't even need to launch the game, just enable continuous loop playback. Pure fun and absolutely gank proof, enjoy:

The game itself, not someone else, forces you to take part in all kind of less enjoyable 'activities', that's literally the only way to get to the enjoyable bits.



My efforts? Where? When?

You are getting more confused, why would I watch your video when I can be playing the game?

If you are doing bits you don't enjoy just to get to the enjoyable bits maybe there's a problem here, but that doesn't happen to me so it's not a problem with me or the game.

That’s what I do. It’s called Mobius PvE and it’s Open without the player killing essentially.

1) All previous games related to Elite were all single player games
2) People playing in Solo probably treats ED as a single player game, which is fair, since it can be played like a single player game
3) There are private groups as well... So those that play in PGs are probably doing that for a reason
4) Mobius PG was created for those that want to play in "Open" but without PvP
5) A PvP flag doesn't mean more people will play in "Open"; PGs allows for friends to play together the way they want (Roleplay, PvP or Non-PvP etc) without a third party crashing their way of playing the game.

Also that 'noob' argument.. In fact gankers are the unskilled noobs since they want to fight in PvP-equipped ships vs. non PvP-equipped ships.

this!!!
