I just thought up of something of how pvp might be able to work on mechscape (or whatever its called). What if jagex could make a planet that, similar to tatooine in star wars, is so out of the way, so lawless and so dangerous and near inhospitable to any real respectable people that you could go there and kill anybody and everybody you want? You could organize clan wars on the planet, hunt people on the planet, maybe do NPC jobs or extremely high risk but high reward quests or jobs on the planet, etc.

What do you all think?

Hmmm, Yeah a desert planet would be win for pvp.

I'm just hoping there will be more than one ways to attack someone, with visible damage and everything.
Using wasd to pilot your avatar around locking on to enemies.

Example mech: Locks on to mortiga, constantly fires guns until they overheat, then lobs a bomb/fires guiding missiles. Would be so win (you could also be able to do both at same time)

Customisable or varying weapons, characters, colors...

Aw damnit now you have me exited.

well its just an idea of what i would either like to see, or what i think would be cool, its not what they WILL have in the game, its just an an IDEA

I am not sure if they will even have other planets/space flight. I think they said somewhere that it is based all on one planet

I'm pretty sure that's just a rumor.

I'm pretty sure they said it was multiple planets with space flight.

Meh, sure. Why not.


This makes a lot more sense. Four playable races on one planet? I don't think so.

since when did jagex say anything about planets in the first place?

I'm thinking in something more realistic than a PvP arena.

Something like kill who you want, but deal with results.

Ex: I kill some Pliigi, a pliigi police will hunt me and give people rewards for my head

They've mentioned the existence of other planets and a large universe in numerous and recent statements, interviews, etc.

Great idea!

i hope that ghehe :P

oh, ok, sorry, I jsut thought I had heard something about 1 planet somewhere

I was kind of thinking that there will be pvp all over the game, since its more a mature game there would be less senseless killings and ppl would discourige it in highly populated areas. Like in real life. It is a bad thing to kill people in public. But secretly its fine

Sounds good but I wonder how (if there is) pures would work out for PKing.

That would be really cool! Of all sorts of "wildernesses" they could have i like a planet most.

The ideas over of PvP everywhere would be awesome too! First days could be messy tho if people just kills eachother without thinking clearly :P

Well, if there's a main human city, that's like, uber technologically advanced (Sort of like Coruscant), then the lower levels of the city will probably be the location of gangs and such. This would allow PVP on main planets as well... Or I'm just rambling.

I really just want pvp everywhere, that would be awesome.

I really just want pvp everywhere, that would be awesome.

sorry about double posting. I double clicked it when i got angry at the flood control crap. Ren or pliigi or someone who runs this site make it so there is no need for flood control.

well ultimately i think really every planet should have designtated Kill zones so to speak, basically, maybe 20-50 feet outside a city to the next would be a place where PvP could happen

I think there will be multiple places where there will be PvP. Honestly, it would be cool if you could PvP anywhere, but you don't want to get caught. Guards could patrol all the cities and like kill you if you attack people. Certain places, like the main planets for each civilization, it might be like impossible to PvP (or it could just plain not be allowed at all, imagine a planet without weapons like Entrana), but as you get further away from the big planets, PvP becomes easier to get away with.

tbh I'd rather pvp on certain servers. Pvp isn't evereything, you know.

That sounds good. It is just weird if PvP is just impossible in some place. Would be funny if it was that IRL :-P

They could have "No PvP" servers, regular servers (with my suggestion), and "All out PvP" servers, which are like BH servers.


Well, in RS it's impossible to PvP in most places, so I figured that would be the "normal" thing.

really its virtually impossible in my opinion to really make a good kill in the pvp servers, its uber difficult to even kill a person in pvp servers.

Like in WoW lol you kill a horde/alliance in neutral city and you get owned by guards.

I like Mchargers idea. I personally think it should be like EVE. If you attack people within regulated space the police/guards warp in on you and absoultely annihilate you unless you can get away fast enough, even then, you should still get a bounty of sorts which would prevent you returning to the major planets under "Republic" (Whatever the major faction is) rule until your bounty is cleared. Uncharted space however, should be a free for all area where their are no rules and where Pirate ships hang out.

I think this would work far better than having a "wilderness" planet.

Yeah I like that idea too.. EVE has some cool gameplay mechanisms, too bad its 15$ a month >.<

And maybe one planet would just be a wasteland with no order but a ton of resources..

My understanding of what little info we've been given that anytime you're in space it's a free-for-all, but even if I'm right that could probably change before release. I'm not sure I want to put myself at risk every time I want to go somewhere...

I like the idea of having a fighting planet, hopefully it wont be based like the 'Worlds' on runescape though -_-...

They have already confirmed it somewhere. I am good at picking these things up but useless at finding them again. Try the Q&A or something. There shall be a pk planet. Btw you almost had your thread fall off the 30 day limit. Bump.

lol, thankyou Toby =]
