Goshee Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 PvP servers are for players who enjoy fighting against other players in combat. A PvP server will "flag" you for PvP in contested areas. A contested area is an area which isn't owned by either the Empire or Republic and is therefore being battled over for supremacy. Enemy players can attack you at will in these areas if you are on a PvP server, so you must always be on the look out! You will find more guilds centred around PvP here but will still do regular PvE content too PvE servers are for those who like to level in peace without fear of the enemy attacking and who like to focus on getting through the story content. Be it questing, flashpoints or operations. You don't get automatically flagged for PvP in contested areas. RP servers are for role playing. RP'ing is a way of playing the game where you pretend to be the character you are playing. RP servers usually have people with more realistic names (realistic to the star wars universe that is) and RP communities tend to hold RP events for people to join in. Hope this helps ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YamianGodlike Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 I didn't want to be ganked while leveling and I hate waiting, so picked low population PVE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amdramnar Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 You do not say if you want to PvP a lot or not. 1) US or EU sever 2) PvP or PvE (PvP could result in being attacked without warning at anytime by any number of people) (PvE can fight other players but they need to consent to being attacked) 3) RP Sever In theory, an RP server will have more people willing to role play their characters. After eliminating servers based on the above questions, pick one that is Medium/High population. And if choosing a US server, be aware some on on east coast and some are on the west coast.

Suzina Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 PVP means other players can jump you at any time. This interrupts your play. Most people new to MMOs don't like this, so I would recommend a PVE server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
