What is PvEvP?

[Purno]

Lately I've been hearing a lot of games being PvEvP. What hell is that? I know what PvE is, I know what PvP is, but what is PvEvP, and how does it differ from PvE and PvP?

I did try googling, didn't get me any useful results. Thanks for being unhelpful.

Player versus environment versus player. So two opposing teams with some AI to spice things up a bit.

I know, I've read that little discussion and didn't get me any wiser. Makes it sounds like PvP, so I still don't know the difference between PvEvP and PvP. That topic is related to one specific game, and I'm more interested in a more general explanation, not specific to one game or genre.

So it's closer to PvP than it is to PvE?

It's both.

Think of something like a typical MMO, where you can fight enemy NPCs and other players.

The difference is, there's some E, so AI, to kill on the side, not just other players. This isn't specific to a game, just like PvE isn't specific to a game.

I've always considered anything where players could attack players a PvP game mode, regardless of any NPCs, but I guess from a PvP perspective it makes sense to specify wether NPCs are also present.

The PvEvP thing kept showing up while I was searching for PvE games, that's why I'm wondering what it was. Thanks for the help! :)

You can ignore it. PvEvP is generally understood as "PvP first, some PvE on the side". If you're more into co-operative multiplayer (like I am), PvE is the real deal and PvEvP won't scratch the same itch.

PvEvP is more interesting if you're into PvP first and foremost, but want to spice that up a bit.

That's the thing, even searching for 'co-op' yields plenty of PvP-only games as search results, as obviously any game you play in a team requires co-operation and thus can be tagged as a co-op game.

Many competative (=PvP) games have separate co-op modes as well.

That would depend on the game in question.
