J20hawkz Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 I haven't played DST in a while and I don't intend on playing it any time soon (want to build up my excitement and play it when a lot more stuff is added). So if this is already in game just tell me and I'll remove this post. Anyone played Terraria? Well for those who have and know what I'm talking about, my suggestion is to implement the same way we toggle PvP on and off in Terraria for Don't Starve Together. So basically in game we have a toggle sword (PvP) icon, all players need to activate this icon for everyone to be able to attack each other. So as an example this is how it works:Player A activates PvP in game and a message pops up for everyone to see that PvP was activated for Player A. Player B does not activate PvP in game. Player A and player B cannot fight each other. Player B now activates PvP in game and a message pops up for everyone to see that PvP was activated for Player B.Now both Player A and player B can PvP. Works great in Terraria and also a message to say who has activated PvP can appear on screen, yes you guessed it, just like in Terraria Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/48983-pvp-just-like-in-terraria/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silentdarkness1 Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Maybe some day in the future it'll be needed, but right now? Nah. There's such a large berth of non PVP servers. If you don't want to PvP, then just pick a non-PVP server.

rezecib Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 @Silentdarkness1, Well, I think this would actually be a good system for non-PvP. The reason is that I've seen quite a few "PvP" servers that really want coop with the option to do a little fighting each other. A Terraria-like PvP system would make them more likely to just set their servers to non-PvP and that would reduce a lot of confusion over what a given server intends to happen when they enable PvP.

Michi01 Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 I like your idea, should be an option when creating a server. Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/48983-pvp-just-like-in-terraria/#findComment-600967 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShakerGER Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 Nah i don't like the option. Fighting over loot is the most fun part about beeing on a public server isn't it? If everyone can just make them immune to my beating they will proceed to steal my stuff Q.Q Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/48983-pvp-just-like-in-terraria/#findComment-601172 Share on other sites More sharing options...
J20hawkz Posted January 13, 2015 Author Share Posted January 13, 2015 No the point of this is that there won't need to be a server option before starting the game. You literally have the PvP option in game. So as long as you have PvP disabled you'll never get attached by anyone no matter if they have PvP enabled. So if Player A and Player B both enable PvP in game and Player C has PvP disabled in game, then Player C can sit back and watch both Player A and Player B fight it out. If Player C wants to join in, then all Player C has to do is enable PvP in game and now Player C can damage and take damage from Player A and Player B.Follow me?

DarkXero Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 So as long as you have PvP disabled you'll never get attacked by anyone no matter if they have PvP enabled. This gives you immunity in PvP servers, if you never activate it.Unless the host kicks you out for being a wuss.
