    Pvp a bloody joke

    one of this games major selling points was pvp. Why do they actively discourage pvp?
    The reward v punishment for pvp is so screwed it isnt funny.

    This aspect of the game is ruined

    The PVP aspect is based on betrayal. It seems people forget this.
    You turn traitor and go against your fellow Agents, for selfish greed and as such.

    Itīs not ruined,and if people think PVP would be about just thrashing everything for people without consequences..sorry but no. You can "own" people in Cod or BF etc and so on. You can "own" people here as well, but itīs gonna take skills.

    They actively discourage it because otherwise you'd get trolled by those who you cannot compete with.
    It's one thing to make an open world PvP instance where everyone can be shot whenever, for no reason.

    It's a completely another thing to turn it into a NASCAR race and let people at the top prevent other people from getting to the top. I'm not against PvP, but it would be a bigger bloody joke when you end up with an area where the only choice people have is to feed kills to people driven by K/D counters.

    Another PVP gameplay will be in an upcoming DLC. Perhaps it will offer this so called "risk free" version as well. However, i fail to see why itīs such a sad day and why one should feel sorry for people betraying the cause and to be honest, does nothing but trolling or harassing the other players in the DZīs.

    I have as of yet not seen any good sportsmanship PVP at all. Just high lvl D**k moves from people trolling those that are to low leveled or under geared. The result is fair, but people never like it when their own "fun" actions turn around and bite them in the behind.
