PVP cluster with a PVE map?
Need some opinions on the idea of an unoffical server that has 2 maps for PVP and one for PVE.

Very difficult to manage and balance. We had clustered every map and tried to do it, but just didn't seem feasible. You'd have to disable item/dino transfers cause otherwise folks just stay on PvE and hide their stuff,etc there and then bring it over when needed to PvP.

Perhaps all PvE maps and one PvP.. and the PvP has higher level dinos and beeter loot drops etc. so folks go there to tame better dinos and get sweet loot and for scirmishes.

Were you ever able to have both PvP and PvE in the same cluster? We have 6 maps, all PvE and want to change TheCenter map to PVP.

But maybe thats the exact same reason to do this?
All can have their "Mainbase" or even all Bases on the PvE Side.
Than they can meet with their War Dinos and Weapons etc. on the PvP map and just clash until one has Won.
Than they go back to PvE and gather an better army, while the Winner still gets some good Loot.

Then nobody is going to do pvp unless he knows he is winning.
