!!!??? No PvP? LOL? Tell me you were just joking please.
edit: Ok i see a 2nd poster kinda confirming it... Dunno what to say.
You know there is no PVP, there has been lots of posts about this already. This is yet another troll post, nothing else. Give up, leave the game alone. If it's not for you move on to the next.
If you really didn't know.. Can I then suggest actually reading and browsing the forum before posting?
Err, sorry, i didn't knew. I am not a Final Fantasy fanboy you see, i didn't played the previous one, and sorry for not reading ALL those threads and ALL these posts (ie wasting all my day) about a single game that i might be interested to play. Do you spend like all your day reading posts about FF? Maybe, but don't expect everyone to do so. I don't even do that for games that i currently play. And although i applied for beta i didn't got accepted. FF for me is just a game that i might try. I am not hyped about it or anticipate it. So yes i came here and asked about PvP cause i didn't knew and none of the threads on the first page had anything to do with PvP (which seemed a bit strange).

Anyway, to the matter, as i see you people started discussing which wasn't something i expected. Personally i am more of PvE player but still need a little PvP dose here and there. And now that i am playing a PvP focused game, i need my PvE dose as well. I think ideally a MMO should offer both on an equal basis, and games that claim to be focused on either (most games do that) are just trying to excuse themselves for having subpar the other thing. For me the key to a good MMO is to offer a great variety of different gameplay options like PvE, PvP, interesting lore / roleplaying, crafting, live events from GMs, community events, guild events, etc. Cause no matter how i like something i 'll eventually get bored doing the same thing over and over.

I'm sorry but next time , use your eyes as well as some of your cognitive abiliies & you might notice the 2nd pinned thread at the top of the general FFXIV forum named FINAL FANTASY XIV: Everything you need to know. Heres the link:
Seriously, its 2 endgames in MMO's...raiding or pvp, but preferably both.
Having no pvp will push people over in SWTOR and GW2 for sure.Im not saying its wrong, but besides hardcore pvp players you have people that like to pvp now and then as well, and its actualy ALOT of people that play that way.
I myself noticed it released next month so i thought id have a go at it because im bored, but no pvp at all ?...no way ill play this game.
I guess they dont need my money then ^^
Well it's sealed it for me i will definitley be playing. And I guess they don't need your money , a company sticking to a gameplan says more about SE than most of the currently released MMOs (Lets just exclude EvE,DFO and MO they have done the same as SE but gone for the minority PvP market).
GW2 is just and arena game so lets forget that. SWTOR again is something else PvP is not a main focus, Battlegrounds and PvP through choice, shame your griefing options are being limited.

Not that hard really... I don't mean to be rude, but usualy taking 5 mins to look up something will result in you not looking like an arse.
I know he's being a bit.. well you know. But in his defense, the site is actually to blame here and he's asking a legitimate question.
If you look under the site's Game List where it lists all MMOs here, under the description for FFXIV they just have "RPG". For just about every other game it's "PvP: Yes/No". The people in charge of that section know (or SHOULD know) that FFXIV is a purely PvE game (the hint from FFXI should have told them that). Whether SE choses to implement some kind of sports pvp later doesn't matter as anyone looking at the game now can't tell.
What matters is this site should put right on the description "PvP: No" because at launch this game won't have any and probably for a LONG time it won't have any type at all.
So if he clicked on that trying to learn if there is any PvP in this game, it's quite legit.
I have no idea why MMORPG doesn't list it that way when everyone playing it knows there is no PvP in it at release.
in my opinion, people that attack ffxiv for no pvp, QQ becuase in this game can gank another people
come on gank is not pvp, just abuse another people that have bad situation when start the fight
i think pvp unballance the games, reason, always people want nerf another class that are more "powerful"
well games full pvp are crappy and cant got more subs
games with good pve are good and have stable subscription
As i see it it was no attack on FFXIV in this thread from pvp'ers.
It was a legit question, but we keep getting jumped by people like you.
You keep whining about pvpers ganking?...most games have actually pvp that you have to AGREE to participate in.Im tempted to start using harsher language when i read some of the responses in this thread.(im not saying all, so dont get all hurt and crybaby on me)
Fact is you guys are generalizing everything that has to do with pvp just as much as pvp'ers are generalizing pve people.You just cant see it.

Who da hell needs PvP at all? Not me. So good news when one games is coming w/out hordes of griefers running around

Because that is the ONLY type of PVP in MMO's, right? The ones with "hordes of griefers" running around...
