dejeffers 39 Posted February 22, 2014 ...Look, the game is a piece of piss, you can get fully gear and survive until judgement day within a few hours of spawning. PvP is the only challenge...At the moment, when playing a 25% or so completed game. With some of the ideas the hinted at, there could be a lot of scope for those who want to pve without it becoming 'boring'. Why shouldn't someone who wants to RP just the zombie experience not be allowed to, especially if the hives are separate from the pvp ones, won't affect pvp'ers. Not everyone wants to RP as Rambo which is what the alpha offers at the moment and we shouldn't judge a year down the line on what we are playing now. The devs are constantly thinking of new ways to kill us so I am sure that by the time beta hits, other players will be the least of our worries and the environment will play a much larger part - the devs are evil people.

louist 163 Posted February 22, 2014 Once private hive servers are out if you want to make a pve server then its your choice ( not a choice i agree with but hey i dont have to join it so it doesnt bother me ) This may not be for quite a while so for now your going to have to deal with the fact someone might want to kill you for your beans or just the lolz of it all...I don't know if it will be as simple as switching a server setting, though I could be wrong. The OP may have to wait for someone to mod that aspect of the game, though that will be an even longer wait. As others have said, though, it will require a private hive, one way or another, and without a comprehensive change to zombies, I can see the lack of challenge getting old. Yes, zombies will become more numerous as the development of SA continues, and we'll see more of them. But they can't ever replace the danger of humans.

But they can't ever replace the danger of humans.I never said anything about switching a server setting ??? merely they can make it pve only and can enforce on a private hive, how you ask well the server logs almost everything that happens so it be easy for an admin to check log and go player xxxxx killed 6 players hmmm server ban player xxxxx next time he tries to log onto that private server his guid is denied he will have gotten his cheap kills by going to the trouble of getting whitelisted and be gone the next day ... Not really worth the effort to get a cheap thrill killing those who want pve thats why ill be going on a private server that allows all play styles.. Why private rather than public it becomes a community the bad guys are cooler the good guys are to they care about the game and thus play it to the full that and its much harder for hackers they get away with an hour of shenanigans then they are guid banned from that server and peace is restored where in a public if vac or be dont catch them they run wild just like they did in the mod...

minime1000 78 Posted February 22, 2014 I think it has been said enough times that the official/public hive will not have pve mode. You have to make a private hive to turn pvp damage off. I am sure there will be people who are going to host multiple servers under the same pve hive. Best for everyone this way obviously. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeatHTaX 1217 Posted February 22, 2014 PvE servers are not "unscripted human interaction" Usually they ban you for murdering people, and all have strict "rules of engagement". If they could turn off "friendly fire" I'm sure a fair amount would. Restrictive and forced. I will be avoiding all of these sissy servers -.- PvE is the stupidest idea ever for this game imo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atom Quark 437 Posted February 22, 2014 When there are private servers there will be PVE servers. There will also be spawn with can opener, 600 helicopters, self bloodbag and protective domes (with donation) servers. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
