Will the game have purely pve servers?

Will the game have purely pve servers?
If not I wish the devs would change that tbh. What if there are hackers on the server and the server is partially pve/pvp? All the players will be screwed by few hackers.

No, maybe later. But not at release for sure.

More or less only the deep desert is PvP anyway.

I am watching a video now about it, I think the devs f this up tbh. Basically the majority of solo players won't play this game or buy it and then drop it. Almost impossible to play this game as solo, unless u want to focus on building and sell building schematics, basically just being a trader. BLAH!!!! they f this up!

You can easily play it solo, PvP isnt even mandatory in any way.

Astro Feb 27 @ 12:33pm

have a look at this video and let me know what u think. From what I see in the video seems like as a solo player u are destined to be a builder/crafter/trader or spy/mercenary maybe and that's it. But what I am most afraid is that this game will become like an infested pool of chinese hackers massive guilds which will just take over the entire main world area and prevent anyone from progressing further.
I prefer games that have dedicated servers with admins that prevent that tbh.

Landsraad you can be in as well and contribute to solo.

A clan or guild can not take over everything. the deep desert is also wiped and new map every week.

You could just as well articulate that you only play with 20 friends and not 50 and tehre by you have no chance.

Dedicated servers with own admins wont exist.

Sounds even worst, the main map wipes every week?! Dang that's the Boss of hackers, Weekly WIPES :(

No, the PvE map where you have your main bases on does not wipe.

Only the PvP map wipes once every week as it gets replaced by a new procedurally generated map.

umm, I wonder what gets wiped in there a part from the map. The video I watched said that large guilds might build in the pvp map, and I bet any progress, like quests are wiped. Umm this sounds to me just like a constant reset to make the players never reach end game.

You can make temporary bases on the pvp map but these and everything in them are lost when the map goes through the weekly wipe & gets replaced with a new one.

If you make these temporary bases on the pvp map you need to move the stockpiled resources in them over to the PvE map, into your main base.

Quests are part of PvE.

almost all survival games PVP or PVE are a lot harder solo , this will be no different, your grind will be harder, your defending will be harder, everything is harder on your end. its how it is in these games.
