I apologize for my ignorance....

Why would someone want to go into a PvP arena and not PvP?

 

If this was added so many people wouldn't pvp anymore and make pvp even more "barren"

 

Many people go into the arenas simply to straddle the line as well as to run into the arena, punch someone, and then quickly run out of the arena. I believe the intention of this suggestion would be to require players to stay in long enough to actually fight each other.

 

It's not ignorance, it's just lack of knowledge for PvP :p

If this is possible, then yeah, I want this. +1

long

 

+1 it is annoying when spawn campers hit from the side and run back out too bad pvp is already dead so i dont think this will be implemented the new pvp arenas ruined pvp arena1,2,4 look good but they arent good for actually pvping the only decent one for pvp is arena 3

 

+1

 

I don't mean to be the one to stand out, but let me give a few reasons why this shouldn't be added.

1) we JUST had a pvp arena competition.

2) What about PvP arenas in towns? There are a few towns that are completely PvP

3) If you are PvP'ing in a town PvP arena, then what about tp'ing out?

4) You can prevent this by inviting users to a pvp arena that has no escape. (Other than Tp'ing out)

5) I don't know how you would link this with worldguard, but im sure it could be done.

 

I've suggested this before, but we just need to make the pvp arenas difficult to exit. For example, putting the entrance in a 2-block pit so that once you jump in, you stay in.

 

This would not work in the PvP world, because once you are in, theres no way out. You can't tp out of the arena.

 

Well, one could just make the exit elsewhere. There are quite a few ways to make one-way doors or paths; as long as getting in and out is a little harder than walking back and forth between two blocks.
You could even provide one or two blocks to make an easy parkour out. It just has to be difficult enough to prevent this hopping back and forth.

 

This is interesting, I like the idea but, it really can't be implemented.

1. Is there a code already out there that is able to do this? Or do we have to code it ourselves?
2. This is a player strategy, similar to PvP logging, it's very difficult to implement.
3. You enter a PvP arena at your own risk, if you don't like when this happens, don't PvP. Simple as that.

I don't see this as being implemented. -1

 

Knears pretty much summed up what I was thinking. Dont like the current public arenas? great, make your own in your own town.

 

You really don't see many people PvPing anymore. I think this would be a good suggestion because of it, making PvP better that people that still do play.
