The Roleplay-PvP Ruleset is Coming to WoW Forever

Greetings,

In a recent episode of the WoW Forever Podcast we discussed some of our concerns with adding a Roleplay-PVP ruleset in WoW Forever, but we also mentioned that we were still discussing the topic internally and watching player feedback. Over the last few days, we’ve carefully examined what it would take to add it to WoW Forever and decided to go for it. We will add a Roleplay-PVP Ruleset for launch on November 4.

We’re also working hard to make it so that you can select the Roleplay-PvP ruleset and reserve names there next week when our Name Reservation period begins on Tuesday, October 27.

We really appreciate the feedback and comments on this.

Thank you!

Please take a look into the last Paladin Podcast held by Countdown.

Please someone explain the difference between PvP and RP-PvP? Also why split community with many rulesets?

its more about a community difference really, pvp is for the pvp sweats, rp pvp is for those that enjoy having pvp but want it to be meaningful i.e. faction wars, stories you make along the way, that sort of thing.

RP-PvP is more RP than PvP, being fully flagged for PvP is extremely important for the feel of WoW RP for a lot of people.

Thank you for this Blizz!

Amazing news! The RP-PvP Community really came together to cry from the mud hut and Stormwind roof tops for this one!

@Aggrend - Will you be locking the faction choice across both PvP and RP-PvP rule sets? - To avoid the RP-PvP realm just becoming a dumping ground for players that have no interest in RP but just “wanta character on the other faction, too.” - Basically treating it just as a PvP#2

YESSSS! Please! OMG this is great news. I won’t have to share space with Abusive Dad and Jail Bait and other degenerates of that sort.

This deserves an answer

Please do Cross-faction grouping for PvE realms. Horde and Alliance still keep their individual flavor, cities and quests.

But many guilds and friends who prefer different factions can come together for PvE.

LET’S GOOOOOO! We did it!

No, that’s a retail feature. Keep the War in Warcraft

Good. Well done for everyone who made loads of noise in our community. Now they need to ensure factions are locked to make sure our realm isn’t a dumping ground for alts

Thank you, Blizzard, for listening to our concerns and giving RPPvP community a place to call home! Cheers, everyone! See you all in-game.

This is very important, and we need this to be addressed!
