Associate Producer Morten Byom explains some of the Massive PvP gameplay features and changes in detail.
Hey,
Just wanted to write a few lines to clarify a few of the gameplay features involved in the Massive PvP system. With this I hope to better explain what we are trying to achieve with the system and some of the changes that we will do to improve it.
First off I would like to thank everyone for the valuable feedback you have all expressed on our forums. We are dedicated to make the absolutely best experience for the players and we can only do this with the help of the community and the beta testers.
Vulnerability Window
The vulnerability window GUI will list all the battlekeeps, the owner of these keeps, when the battlekeeps are open for attack, and finally any guilds that currently have the right to attack and the number of Guild PvP points that guilds have.
If your guild chooses to declare war on another guilds battlekeep, they will do this through the vulnerability window GUI. The Guild selects the city they wish to declare an attack on and they will be listed as a potential attacker for this battle. 24 hours prior to the fight starting the vulnerability window will be locked and an attacker is declared. At this time no changes to the attackers can be made.
When your guild has won a Massive PvP fight and claimed ownership of the Battlekeep the system will automatically set the vulnerability window of your battlekeep to be open in 3 days. Your guild can choose to move this window a few hours back and forth in time to better suit the playing time for their guild.
If you choose to own a battlekeep and all the bonuses it provides, you will be expected to defend it periodically. However we acknowledge the fact that people also wish enjoy all the other aspects of the game, and the vulnerability window was implemented to give the defending guild a break between battles.
Guild PvP Points
When there is a dispute between multiple guilds for the right to lay siege to a battlekeep, the Guild PvP points will be used to determine which guild should be allowed to conduct the attack.
These points will be generated for the guild by the individual players of that guild. There will be two ways that these points will be obtained. First it will be awarded to the guild if a guild member participates in a PvP minigame. Secondly, based on your feedback, we will give points when guild members gain PvP experience. The exact ratio between these two is not set, and I encourage you all to give feedback on this to help us balance the two. You could even see if you have any other PvP related activity that should be rewarded this way. The point is, there will be a conflict between several guilds on the right to attack! This conflict must be resolved in a fair, or at least in the fairest, way we can find. This fairness must be PvP related. Rewarding anything else seems out of place to the team.
When the battle is started the attacking guilds PvP Points are reset to zero. This is done to allow all guilds a chance at taking part of the siege gameplay, even those that are not the most active PvP guilds.

More on PvP:The basic rule is that you can never attack anyone that's in your group. But then we have a different type of PvP set up [which comes into play] in the Battle Keep zones. In those zones, even though you're not on their team, you cannot attack guild members. But outside of [Battle Keep zones], you can definitely gank guild members, and many guild members enjoy doing that.
