The way to truly test your skill, please include an 1 on 1 pvp option. Much of the Star Trek we witnessed was ship 1 on 1. I have noticed that some dont want to give up thier advantage of 5 or 10 against 1 ship. If you are truly as good as you think you are, join a 1 on 1 battle and see how you fair.

Respectfully submitted.

    Absolutely supported.
    I've been requesting 1v1 pvp for awhile.
    It would bring so much to the game.

    I'd love to give 1v1 a shot. Though my PVP experience is mainly limited to T2 SalvOp, I had loads of fun when one K would decloak and try to knock me off of a flag. I usually won in under 20 seconds, but the most fun I ever had was when a great K would come along and we'd have a 1 on 1 duel that lasted over a minute. It was a true battle of skill and will, and I was often disappointed when other people would show up and "ruin" our fun, even if they were my fellow Feds.

    As for later tiers, from what I've heard it might boil down to who can hit their I Win buttons first, so hopefully the crazy abilities will be fixed so endgame 1v1 (if it does ever come to be) will be just as rewarding.

    Simply does not work as long as there are overpowered combos of powers:

    I start the fight with a sub nuke and a viral matrix: Go ahead and show me your 1on1 skill...

    This is the most obvious case because you will simply die and do noting but cruisers with 5 RSPs are not much better.

    Good idea.

    You would realy be put out if someone was a curser and you were an escort or you were rank 1 of your cmd level and that person was rank 10 of the same cmd lvl so things need to be looked at.

    Second problem is that if your against a klingon you just know that they will take there times and make sure they decloak on your TRIBBLE, eventualy every klingon will catch on and make it boring, (maby a map with a space storm to stop ppl cloaking fully, just battle cloak allowed).

    I think would be easier to offer a duel command.

    When both parties accepts, they are taken to a random location to battle to death.

    No.

    1v1 PvP is another way of saying that Science Vessels win.

    LOL! Science Vessels ARE tough. However against 5 other ships? Not so. It would just be nice to have a Space "dog fighting" option if you will.

    1 on 1 PvP would pretty much suck...there are too many abilities to TRIBBLE up a single opponent. I'm not against them adding it, but I doubt it would be much fun.

    Hmm im wondering is it possible to 1vs1 with a private Queue?

    And yes add it please.

    I support this request easy.One on One ,Two on Two and Three on Three matches for private games.I just came out of a fed room where the feds queued up just to start the game for a 5 on 5 ,then three of them left the room right after it started.This will easily lead to abuse of skill point gain.So since people are abusing the system,allow players to create private rooms starting at one on one and up.As matches finish OR if all players leave the room ,the room removes itself from the queue.

    So keep the 14 and 20 man rooms but add 2 ,4 ,6 man rooms.

    Currently no you cannot create a room for one on one.You have to wait for others or invite them off your friends list for a private game.My small clique has 4 people and we would love to play each only so we can see what abilities do and test them out ,but currently cannot and have to rely on the community which is mediocore at best.Ive had 8 really good pvp games.The rest were a wash or gankfests.Thats our fault as players not Cryptic's.

    Supporter of 1v1, 2v2, 3v3....

    I was able to do a 1v1 with a fleet member on tribble, twice. It was the most exciting time i've had in the game except for The Infected & Cure. We need 1v1 - 3v3 in sto. put it on tribble and let people try it out. if it works then add it to holodeck. if not scrap it. what do you have to lose.

    This renders epic duals between mighty starships obsolete. Unless total lockdown crowd control is revamped-removed, fights like the Enterprise vs the Reliant will never happen in this game short of people agreeing not to use them upfront.

    VM III, SNB, JS ... rinse, win.

    Smaller teams (3v3+), sure. 1v1, no.

    IMO.

    Yeah I'd like 1v1 as well, though I wonder if that would put strain on the servers (not really a tech boffin so I wouldn't know).

    How about initiating 1v1 pvp by coming into contact with a ship of an opposing faction in the neutral zone? That way both of you would have some idea of what you're getting into (plus you could always run away).

    I was shocked this didn't already exist. I wanted to 1v1 with a fed who was complaining I was overpowered. I don't think so and I don't use a lot of the abilities he was complaining about. I fully support this! and maybe a ladder system?

    Would be fun for awhile with 1vs1 but I think in the long run PPL wouldn't really like it.

    The simplest thing i want see done is the ability to start the games whenever, no matter if its 1v1, 2v2, 5v5 or even 4v2.
    To be able to set up the game and the odds any way one wants them, its a basic freedom that exists in pretty much all PvP based games out there today.
    Also having the "mentor" mode available so one can mix ranks in a private game would be nice too.
    Being able to throw say 5 Lt's vs a RA would be loads of fun.

    Its not much to ask Cryptic, just two simple things.

    - Ability to start the private game whenever, regardless of teams.
    - Ability to use Mentor mode and mix player ranks.

    It should at least be an option for us to choose. I feel 1 vs. 1 would require skill, plus you will learn in that environment, not just die. And to make sure the cloak is not abused, just put a time limit on the cloak to make sure the fight is not boring, and the fed is just out thier wandering around by himself/herself. However in defense of the use of the cloaking device, I am not a Klingon Captain, but part of fighting a 1 vs. 1 battle IS in fact patience. If you dont have it, you will in fact die. "Its in the game". lol. So, maybe let me revise my earlier statement about the time limit. Too many are rushing through the game just to make rank and get marks and not smell the roses in and about the game. It took soooooo much time to bring this game to us, and more is yet to come, but I see so many demands and ungrateful comments about it, yet it is still the best Star trek game we can access to date.
    I feel healthy debate like this one will offer greater possibilities for this game, because of the depth of thinking that takes place in these forums.

    PLEASE GIVE US THE 1VS 1 PVP OPTION!!!! MAKE THIS GAME EVEN BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Respectfully Submitted to all Ship Skippers

    PS. thank you all for dropping by

    one on one would be fun but the cloak needs to be disabeld in pvp as it would give an unfair advantage

    Your Idea is awesome!!! If we see each other in the nuetral zone we must determine intent as would any ship in that position. It would make the game more true to form. Never knowing how the other might respond. ideas like this will help us get even closer to the real experience yet. Thank you so much for presenting this one!

    The cloak puts us in the same position as Kirk, Picard or anyone else. Let the Klingons keep it. If we aspire to be as great as our idols, lets LEARN how to defeat them with it.

    It would be a nice option, I suppose. More options is a good thing. I can't see a downside to it.

    Are you refering to a system that makes sure the matches are even?
