Firefall Shuts Down PvP In Preparation For Launch


Arclight

Firefall may have started with PvP, but as development has continued the focus has shifted away from PvP in favor of PvE, to the neglect of the former. While Jetball was a fun idea, it attracted less than 3% of the game’s population. In response to the waning quality of PvP life, Red 5 Studios has announced that they are shutting down PvP completely to retool it in preparation for a better future.

So we’re going to regroup, rethink, and deliver the best PvP system we can that can be enjoyed by everyone. We don’t have a timetable for this, but at some near future point we will shut off the PvP aspect of the game, which we feel does not represent Firefall at its best, and relaunch that part of the game when its ready.

We look forward to what Red 5 Studios has in store for us.
