Black Desert Online News - Kakao Games and Pearl Abyss have announced that a dedicated PvP server will be coming soon with new rules that "negate the karma loss players normally receive after killing another player". The goal is to bring open-world PvP to the forefront on this server. Feedback was provided by the Russian community after a recent test period. The PvP server will be live once this week's maintenance is complete.

Also, a big "HAH!" to those who still try to claim that the game isn't doing well, and that the only metric that counts are new servers being added! Time to come up with a new excuse as to claim the game population isn't booming. It isn't the first time they've added servers either.

Hodor!
I've tried it a couple of times and never got into it, but I can see why people enjoy it -- large open world, fun combat. I just didn't feel the lore/world/characters I need personally to get involved in a game. But I can see where people don't need that if they would rather a more sandbox type of experience where the only lore and characters that matter are other players/guilds.
I'm glad this is filling the need for a gaming home for a lot of people.

No it wouldn't. At least not for people who wanted pvp from level 1. Heck, Lineage 2 had pvp from level one and it was some of the more interesting pvp in the game for those actually around that level as no one was really very overpowered.
We need to stop this thinking that every game should be for every person and that everyone actually likes the same things.
I applaud this effort as there are people who think pvp should not have a karma system and that karma systems stymie pvp. That the consequences are more in line with gaining the wrath of other clans/factions.
Not really my opinion but I know players who do think this way.
Heck, maybe this will remove those players from other servers, those who "cry" about being karma bombed

hmmm, we need less story. ONe of the reasons I think Elder Scrolls Online is almost unplayable (for me). Quest after quest, it gets so tiring.
Lore? There is quite a bit of lore in Black Desert, but one learns it through taking many of the quests (which I don't like) or paying attention to the cues around the game.
One of the reasons I changed my Valkyrie's hair to red ...

I've got almost 450 energy from collecting knowledge in game. It's cool to read hints about regions that aren't in game yet too; like the Snowlands south of Valencia, where [spoiler] is from!
I do like story content, but there should be a feasible alternative for those that don't care for it, yeah. Either straight up grinding, or world events a la GW2.

Soon the usual complaints will start and they'll move back to their old servers, leaving the dedicated PvPers wondering where everyone went.

And I agree, there should always be alternatives to Story content. Don't get me wrong, I love quests (though think the word "questing" is a dirty word in context of these games) but they are never that great when developers try to get THOUSANDS OF QUESTS into their games and I'd much rather have fewer but better quests. And then ignore them when I want to I can go out and BE in the world.
