i am and always will be pve in sandbox games like this, where you make and build things, but i've played and enjoyed competitive games too - perhaps if you switch protection off in your tribe you get combat bonuses in it, which i think would make sense because the playing field is your own home vs the attackers who are newcomers.
it will create an interesting scenario where, in exchange for being prone to attacks, you have a higher chance of successfully defending, which gives you reward in the form of loot from the attackers killed. and the ability to switch protection back on for when most of the tribe members go offline. because then it's an unfair fight. and hardcore game rule #1 is if its not fair it isnt fun.
