What it means is now an enemy can enter the same pve areas as you, disable the pvp flag, and there's nothing you can do about it. Not exactly a thrilling idea considering the game is called Warhammer.
That's really weak. It should be PvP on or PvE only. This game is starting to sound like WoW.

if i wanted to spend my limited play time doing a pve quest (something I want to do witn my time and technically my money), i shouldn't have to worry about some idiot with nothing better to do than to harass me.
I disagree. The beauty of pvp is that it makes doing that quest that much harder and imo it makes it more real. The risk vs. reward concept, you appreciate the little things that much more plus don't you think by having certain protections in place it makes the game less realistic?
I'll give an example, orc is farming ore, nightelf is also farming ore. They both want the ore. They have racial tensions, would it not be assumed that they would fight over that which they desire? With protections in place (level limits, zone protection, team protections) it prevents this natural occurrence from happening.
Just my .02 Pontifex.
A general comment, I thought the goal of this game was to cater more towards the pvp crowd?
you do have a point. but fireballs and dragons are realistic?
sorry, had to through in that old cliched saying.
I don't care for PVP in MMOs to begin with. Most of the time its all about who has the better gear or who is higher in level, not any skill at all. go play a fps or rts if you want PVP.
I played on a PVP WoW server for a little while. The only reason I did so was because I had some friends who played on it. Every time I would go out to try to do quests to level up or get gear, I would get ganked by 7-8 players of the opposite team who were at minimum 10 levels above me. I believe I was at lvl 28 or 29 when I quit. Most of the time I would try to quest in a neutral area, I'd get ganked and camped by 7-8 people who were at least lvl 38. Just one of them could have kicked my ass, but they needed 8 of them? Why would they even bother with someone so low? I don't think they got any xp or points or anything for it. It was just to harass other people. WTF are you supposed to do?
If it was a fair fight it wouldn't be so bad, but that rarely happens.
When I'm trying to level or do quests, dying every 5 minutes and not getting anything done is a huge fucking waste of my (limited) time. I'm was paying money to play this game and I can't even fucking enjoy it?
Maybe all my PVP experiences are just bad ones? I just don't think it belongs in an MMO.
