Servers and You

This is a fairly simple poll today.

[poll id="8"]

If you have no clue what the options mean here are the options deciphered. PvE is player vs environment, it is the same as PvP (player vs player) but you are safe from being attacked from other players most of the time. RP is roleplay and has special rules and tends to help with immersion(also follows PvE rules). RP-PVP is a mix of all of the above.

If there is a server type I missed please complain and let me know what you want.(I just wont be able to change the poll for it)

From what I understand I think it is like an mmo of the sims.

What is the point of having no PvP in a game that is involved in a battle between two factions? Its like playing dodgeball with no ball.

As stated in interviews, its Star "WARS", and from what I've heard they have hardcore PvPers working on the game as well, although we have no clue how it will work

I actually can see how PVP would work out much more clearly than the rest of the game.

Weird is one way to describe it. "Visual AIDS" would be my personal choice.

RP servers tend to be filled with the most annoying people I've ever met. It's hilarious to see a Night Elf try maintain this mysterious aura of badass when he's level 6.

Yep, reasons too plenty why RP servers are usually the lamest of them.

Agreed, but I'm glad they exist. It keeps all the wierdos away from us ^.^

Back when I played WoW I played originally on a PvE server, but then I re-rolled on a PvP server. I liked the PvP server a lot more than the PvE even though you could get corpse camped for hours on end :P but when SWTOR comes out I'm thinking about maybe trying out a RP server cause they are pushing the story aspect so much

Immersion of the world of an mmo is killed for me on a PVE server but that's my own opinion on it. Last thing I want to see is two opposing faction players wanting around and questing next to each other without a fight breaking out, especially when both of these factions are at war.

I chose PvP, because I am a diehard PvP fan, and I still have the option to go PvE at the same
