Star Wars The Old Republic -Anarchy time! PvP Servers Confirmed!

Yesterday, in a forum post, BioWare’s Stephen Reid confirmed  Player vs. Player (PvP) servers for Star Wars: The Old Republic.

Here is the statement in full:

“Hello all. As I said before, it wasn’t such a trivial decision, which is why it took a while to make. However, we have good news: RP-PvP servers are going to be a part of Star Wars: The Old Republic.

Please note, the ‘RP’ part of the RP-PvP designation will be a suggested style of play, not a mandatory one. What that means is, if you feel someone isn’t roleplaying, reporting them to Customer Service will not ensure action on their account. We will also not be enforcing naming policies or similar.

For a game with a projected player base as high as The Old Republic, it’s simply not practical for CS to be watching over this. If you want to fully immerse yourself in roleplaying, we suggest you find a likeminded group or guild to do that with.

You probably have questions – throw them out and we’ll try to answer.”
