PVP has arrived. BUT we're still last to get it!

OK lets understand what Mr_Grimm means by license, this is my opinion, only my opinion, i very well could be wrong, LOL, i think though, i'm kinda close....

therefore perhaps getting the gist of what this is about or happening or can or could be...

License means- Selling legally 10 of these. Means, Ubisoft can branch out this game and other venders may reproduce it under strict guidelines of which i'm so sure UBISOFT has...

Lets Pretend- PRETEND !!!
Ok so say i own, xxxxx game dev business, and i want a new venture, i look in the market, and see that Settlers is up for PVP dev.. and i submit, they accept, i've got 3 years to dev this... and if they like it then, i've now hopefully gotten offered a partnership or hey better yet, Ubisoft wants to buy me!

Which is why, for me! lol being half Chinese as well as my 1st n longest played online MMO E- is a Chinese production... so ya i'm soooo interested in seeing what theyre going to offer.. since E is a totally ruthless MMO LoL i shall be quite happy getting back to my mean as sicself....
Believe me when i tell you.. i am not a nice person, therefore i really do like tactical war games... I wish they'd hurry the _ up..... !!!

Well Asia for our sakes, i wish for a english person born on US soil, Who doesn't know a word of german makes PvP for the USA! let the chinese keep their PvP. we want our own!* **

(* note to any Germans here, nothing against you, but us english folk want a true english person as a spokesperson) (** my grandma is german =) )

The Chinese pvp arena doesn't seem to appeal to me for some reason. It's not what I had imagined as a PVP concept.

I prefer more of an island conquest style type of map where you bring some resources in (like betting or buy in) and then you can win whatever you walk away with from the map.

Thats what i want.

Cool, thanks for digging into the matter Huchy. I agree with the unappealing nature of the pvp in China and also want what RonEmpire talked about in his last post.

....also thanks to Grimm for responding to Huchy to better clarify the matter. Thats appreciated.

This is all great.

By the time it gets to us, most of the bugs have been worked out.

by the time it gets to us, most of the 50 players have already sold their stuff for 1 fish and quit the game. I've noticed so many 50s quitting lately. a few on my friends list and seeing their island barren. with nobles/silos/watermills/friary gone.

What would be neat is a PvP map with Titanium/Granite/Exotic wood area that you must fight control for with your 'towers' (towers act like storagehouse that gives you the area control) basically this is the same pvp concept as the old settlers game. If you take over a tower you take control of the area with blue marker flags.

This area allows you to 'harvest' the rare resources. or you can straight up go head to head against the guy's main HQ landing camp on that island.

I just like the old pvp of the old settlers style. beat a map and move on to next map. in this case, gain whatever resources and rewards of the map to take back to your home island.

Here's the official word from another BB on the Chinese pvp.

[Announcement] About Chinese TSO



Dear Settlers,

Today we would like to provide you with information about the Chinese version of The Settlers Online. The existence of the Chinese version raised questions about the further development of the game.

The version in China differs from your local TSO version in order to fit the different needs of this particular audience.
Our colleagues in China adapt TSO for Chinese players. Some features you know might be modified, some features will be developed for the Chinese players only, but also some features of your TSO might not be deployed in China.

At the end of the day, features included in China won't necessarily be part of your TSO version.

The Chinese version is not a test instance for upcoming features of your TSO version.

Although there is a Chinese version, nothing changes for you:
New content for your game version is pre-announced by the Community Managers.
In addition, you're always invited to participate in the public tests on www.tsotesting.com.
You are also invited to provide our Game Design with feedback on this server which will be taken into consideration for the final version.
Afterwards, new features go live.

Hence, you will stay informed about new stuff, you can test upcoming features in advance and you are invited to share your feedback which is much appreciated by our Game Design.

The next upcoming feature is the Halloween event... check out the latest developer’s diary and visit the test server.

Happy Settling,

BB_PalimPalim

BB, how about giving us some insight into some features that will be in our version of PVP?
