As already mentioned, the safe zone doesn't help much in balancing the pvp interactions, it just gives the players some room for learning the basics and to recover from loss. It has no influence on the risk and reward in pvp space. Please understand, there are very few pure pve players here...

Thanks for the advice. Now let me return the favor: in case you will be playing new world next week, make sure you jump a while, crawl, and hit some rocks with your great axe before flagging for pvp. The more, the better. If you use trees instead of rocks, you would be truly unstoppable in pvp...

The safe zone is a much needed starter space, but achieves absolutely nothing in terms of teaching the ropes of pvp. Let's agree that most players want to pvp. Since there is no combat related pve, they have to learn by fighting other players. They have to leave the safe zone in order to learn...

I totally agree, the cost of death in Starbase is much to high in terms of time investment, and makes the learning process painful and exhausting. The balancing I'm talking about has nothing to do with pve, it's about a balance between new players joining and old players leaving the game. The...

This is so funny, every time the same discussion... no, not all pvpers are griefers at all and most pveers want to shoot stuff as well... There is definitely a very large spectrum between both extremes. But there is however this small vocal group that kills the fun for all the others. Nobody...

Hey guys. The points mentioned here are all valid. There is however a large portion of the player base that has quit because of other reasons. Most have left their feedback on steam, but I greatly respect the Frozenbyte developers and believe that Starbase has the tech and the potential to be...

I believe, this specific kind of a (reputational) problem snowballs very quickly. Nowadays, the moment a game hits the general audience, it is fair game (no pun intended). There is no such thing like "open beta" and "early access". Many MMO gamers are so starved currently that they buy in at the...

This is an issue. The points that Quinc makes are very true and ignoring them would also hurt the hard core pvp community as much as anybody else. Just one thing I would emphasize: this is not just about protecting new players from veterans, but about giving a chance to new, solo and small...
