like richardo said a fair ammount of people like pve more then pvp, so what you should do from swg is make it so people can pick between 2 factions or just stay neutral, and if they pick a side make it also like swg where they can be covert (hiding your factiong) or overt (showing your faction off like a gay man at the million man march) and with covert and overts thats where the tef from swg comes in =D

nah, then theres no fun.. cause then nobody will go PvP.. =\

A Gay Man at the million man march? When I played SWG, I was one of the few people who were overt all the time excluding jedi knights. I even went and declared before getting my buffs.

Default Nice

Well sounds like a great idea... ever since i quit Rallos Zek on live I've been looking for a good, decitated, PvP server... but i have 2 questions... will there be level restrictions on who you can attack?(maybe 5 levels up and down?) and will you be able to loot others? (kinda like the old Rallos Zek Server?)

But... Like the last few people said many people like PvE... well personally I like PvP but if you deside to change your mind and go pvp, you could make it like where PvP people get special binifits, maybe like fraction PvP epic armor or something... Just my ideas not my server... Good Luck and Peace out.

mpike/mswords/mbrawler/xx4x medic

All my dots would be worth about 50 mil right now if the CU didn't nerf them. 1k Pike would be worth another 30-40 mil.

Anyways, moving on..

I'v run PvE Servers, yes.. However, I came up with this idea and I want to keep going with it. The server will be both PvP and PvE, and there will be plenty of PvE stuff to do on your own territory.. hell, you could probly get to level 50 without doing any PvP, but I want to take a stab at a PvP Server. So please stop talking about the server type. I am looking for suggestions about my idea, not about the server type.

Well, I like it. The EQ and WoW ideas are best. I like the idea of the name colors, but I'm not quite sure that'd be very visible...oh well, sneak attack bitch! I think that the person before me was right...your GM's will have ALOT to do with it. Just take your time and this could end up a badass server. Maybe even as good as RA was.

you could do something from DAoC where you have to take a item from the opposing city to get a nice items, pvp points, or something along those lines

Some very amazing ideas in there, I really like the idea of having Qeynos and Freeport be opposing forces, however it sounds like there will need to be some heavy coding to make it all work. Good luck.

Lol I threw the idea out there, but I'm still playing SWG Now (So I haven't worked on the server).

I don't know if I really ever will make it.

I am now a Full Template Jedi on SWG, Awaiting the FRS To be turned back on. While I wait, I may open a SWG Ladder of some sort (An idea that me and a friend are going to be working on).

Even though this is over a year old, I think someone needs to make a decent pvp server. The EQemu Sullon Zek Server blew because of the sucky coding. The Last Stand has been promised for almost 3 months now with no delivery. Even if it does come out, it makes me wonder about the type of support people would get from the GM's etc when they need it. I liked this idea except for the SWG part, it doesn't promote pvp. It just makes it easy for people to avoid it. If you are going to make a straight up pvp server, then you should not allow any ways to avoid pvp (unless its the under 6 rule like on EQlive). This means instances or anything like it. If people want to avoid pvp, they need to do it creatively. Gaining faction for NPC's to protect them, running, hiding etc. I can guarantee I good pvp server with balanced pvp (I'm talking only to lvl 50 because lets be honest, that was the only time it was ever sort of balanced) would conjure a mass influx of pvp. Take the sullon zek server, it had a ton of people on it the first day until we all found out how broken everything was. The Last Stand is another good example. Look how many replies it had. That topic has to rank in the top 5 in this section of the forum for most replies and its a pvp server. Someone make a pvp server the right way and watch the masses pour in.
