Nos PvE Server Poll

[Bioness]

Just one important option missing. "I'm 60 and want a transfer to the PvE realm"

While I'd like this option to, I feel it is a smart decision to not have 60s transfer over. If people really want a PvE server many would be willing to start over. Not having transfers will ensure the economy and progress of the new realm doesn't get turned into chaos as soon as it is made.

30% isnt much. PvE server wont happen guys.

You realize there are peoplew ho have yet to join Nostalrius because the only server was PvP right? This poll doesn't account for them.

As for me, I'll stay on the PvP server, though I may have an alt or something on the PvE one.

PvE server will have no econ to speak of (if it ever lifts off) cus none of the serious players will care to thinking of starting anew there.

The 'pve dream' will die with the casual carebears. Cold and alone, in the dark of internet oblivion.

And no gold.

I'm level 57. There's no fucking way I'm rerolling just to be on a PvE server at this point. Too little, too late.

^this

I really hate Gank Servers, but I'm almost 60...really not wanting to start all over again.

The server pop is going to be really low for a long time if they don't allow transfers.

I never really understood this animosity towards PvE servers.

Literally the only difference between PvE servers and PvP servers, is ganki- I mean "world pvp".

Everything else is exactly the same on a PvE server, except you don't have horde camping redridge, or douchefucks ganking you while you're fighting things, or having to be in constant fear of getting stunlock 100-death'd by an UD rogue while you're just trying to quest.

Having world pvp at 60 while farming and at dungeon entrances is really huge. Also things like TM/SS fights.

Having world pvp at 60 while farming

Yeah, exactly what I'm talking about. Some asshole ganking you while you're just questing or farming.

at dungeon entrances

And again, this just becomes ganking and then corpse camping, most of the time. Groups of horde sitting around outside instance portals in blackrock mountain, killing anyone on sight.

Also things like TM/SS fights.

Do those even exist? I've literally never seen one happen.

99% of the PvE carebear crybabies are not lvl 60, because the primary benefit of a pve realm is easier leveling. Once you hit 60 being on a pvp realm is mostly a positive because it's much harder to get griefed and you have additional options to keep yourself entertained.

TBH I'd only be worried if you are alliance because overwhelmingly the carebears are allies

I think you'll find there are more "carebears" on both sides than you realize. I expect both Alliance and Horde to be very well populated on the new server. And your condescending words only reinforce the idea that the PvE server will have a much more mature community.

I think PVE generally favors Alliance. I would be very surprised if this potential new server was a 50:50 split.

What are you talking about? 30% is a ton of players. 30% of the server will obviously not reroll on PvE server

I hate people like you who thinks that the only point of view is thieir own. I won't be rolling there myself, but I don't plan to start predicting the future of the server based on my own bias.

I hope you also realize that the vast majority of players don't do much, if any at all, unless it's forced upon them.
PvE has always been the most popular aspect of any MMO including WoW. I enjoy PvP very much myself, and I see a lot of people who do, but most prefer PvE.

Having world pvp at 60 while farming and at dungeon entrances is really huge.

Some would think that's a lot of fun, while others would not. When people go to farm they usually go farm, and not to PvP, same could be said for dungeons. Imagine when Naxx comes out and you're forced to farm for consumables on days you don't raid to be able to progress, and some assholes are ganking you wherever you go, and as a result you end up not getting enough consumables for the raid. Not very fun, now is it.

Also things like TM/SS fights.

The only reason people were fighting at TM/SS was because there were no BGs and it was the only zone with two bases close together with a short distance to the GY, hence it was quite practical for farming honor. It was quite a common thing having fights there all days of the week because of the ranked system. Once WSG was released TM/SS fights pretty much died off, except for a few player made events.

I think PVE generally favors Alliance. I would be very surprised if this potential new server was a 50:50 split.

It will favor alliance, but not by a ton; people who prefer horde will still play horde. I would bet that at most you'll see a 60:40 A:H ratio.
