This is a great response, very detailed and thank you for that, the more feedback the better.
Your right in many ways, if your mostly a pve player and only once and a while go to pvp then somethings could change in order to increase your activity in pvp and for others. Rare resources should be in pvp and there is a vote on this subject if your interested,
However I can understand that if you raid POI’s you could get the items you need to keep going without much hassle, but raiding POI’s isn’t for everyone and they would rather mine.
I think Gold should be strictly PVP, and most of the main resources that make ammo should be in pvp. In this way it forces all players to go to pvp rather they fight poi’s or like to pvp. I think its a win win, you just need to be careful.
With a small OCD change, at least something similar on what is mentioned on this post could make that much easier. I think the most average players have ocd 5 and can amount to it, then advance players get 6 and 7, as for the rest its for the most active or skilled players. I think if we allow ocd 5 have a 24hr clock to deposit supplies, ocd 6 a 12hr clock and the rest can stay the same. I believe this will give everyone a reason to go to pvp for those resources.
I cant really reply on the commodity trading due to faction secretes, but if you as a pve player want to make money for whatever reason that is, I can tell you now, you can make an easy 2-4mil a day without any effort in pvp. Most good commodity traders can make up to 40 mil a day, which I tried myself to prove it right, but you have to compete with others. Anyways what does any of this have to do with this post, well its very simple, why do you need to go to pvp and why would you need access to your ocd there, well ammo for one, pentaxid, repair blocks, perhaps weapons and such, even if your only doing commodity runs or poi runs, its better to have that backup supplies if needed.
In the end if certain things were reduced in pve, resources, poi rewards etc and moved to pvp it will encourage game play in pvp but there has to be something that counteracts that like a 24hr cooldown for ocd 5 and so on as I mentioned. I cant see why pve players wouldn’t be happy as they can still choose to go there or not as they still have options, but the reward on the other hand is great. Maybe some pvp players wont like this, as a bunch have worked towards their ocd 7 and higher and have earned that right to withdraw or put in things to their ocd but they will have possibility of more players around to shoot at, win win
