PvP Currently Confirmed or Not?

So i've talked to multiple people and everyone keeps saying the opposite. Im talking about actual PvP not splash damage with you rockets.

/PvP or /pvp team 1 or what ever combination seems to work, Chucklefish have posted videos of them doing pvp, some people say it works, others say it doesnt.

My question is. Has ChuckleFish officially said that PvP is or is not currently emplemented in the beta, and please post your source.

It matters if they ahve or not. If they have said PvP is not implemented then we are waiting for a feature.
If they have said PvP is supposed to be in the beta then it needs to be bugged that it doesn't work.

Either way, I think Chucklefish needs to say something or has said something.

 

Pretty sure they have said it'll be a thing at some point.

No source.

 

Yes, they have said it.

this topic has nothing to do with if there will be or not multiplayer, there was multiplayer at launch, im talking about player versus player combat

 

"competitively multiplayer" implies that PvP will be implemented.

 

Yes, there will be PvP.

Once combat is balanced at least a bit.

 

yea cant wait for some nice pvp, pulling out my hunting knife, quoting some crocodile dundee about thats not a knife, this is a knife... guna be bliss

 

If you really need to get your PK joliies, you could always trap beam down points...the other people on your server probably won't appreciate it...but hey.

 

Straight down holes on teleport location all the way down to lava is effective, if not time consuming.

Me and a friend tested it on each other for fun.

 

You can PvP already.

Use a propeller from the Airships, it kills players instantly.
Also, PvP is already there on Multiplayer, there is a /chat command to activate it.

 

If people dropped anything I would be booby trapping planets left and right, but It's just a dick move at this point because all you do is cause them to lose pixels.

 

Currently this does nothing even when activated. I tried dueling with a friend but and no damage was done even though we were both in PVP.

 

Well that's not very sporting now is it. The straight drop at least gives them the chance to fumble for their grappling hook and try to climb back up with it.

 

No it doesn't. xP

A straight drop directly at your ship's drop location will place the player on the most direct surface underneath, there's no falling, no time to do anything. By time your screen has transitioned to you landing, Your either miles deep down a hole on the bottom of it(if there is one) or melting in lava.

Just to note: I don't really enjoy people who take pride in playing like trolls, this was just an interesting experiment my friend and I had wanted to do.

 

Really? I've been spawned over a straight drop before and it still beamed me down at the surface, only to immediately start falling into the hole.

 

Interesting.

None of my experiences have been this way when beaming down directly into a hole. I get beamed down the entirety of the whole landing on whatever solid ground ends up beneath me.
