obviously you can host your own duels with other players, at any location too.

Wait a minute... that almost like the "just use voice chat to find groups" counterargument to adding Text Chat lel.

TLDR:

PvP => Wants Arena - But can easily host their own 1v1s / 2v2s / XvXs.

PvE => Wants Text Chat - But can easily use voice chat to find groups, sell things, etc.

    Because Cyrodiil is based on large scale PvP, hence AOE cap, hence the whole 'Zerg or Lose' attitude in there, which is fine, it's a big place but not every PvPer likes to roll around in a ball full of players spamming a few abilities in a senseless fashion.

    Zergs are laggy, CC Immunity is messed up, Keep-capturing gets dry after a while etc etc

    Small scale PvP whether that be Battlegrounds or Arenas, would keep a lot of PvPers busy on this game for years.

    I think some people want arena style fighting because it would allow for some sort of leader board and you could potentially duel your own faction. I don't see how it would really hurt the game, so why not (other than development costs)?

    I also understand the desire for text chat on consoles because the voice chat has to be annoying as hell. I've seen some videos of city voice chat, and I wouldn't be able to handle the annoying trolls and people with a lack of social skills. I'm so glad I play on PC.

    It would be cool to have a PvP arena. I love love to be able to spectate other matches too. If nothing else, at least have a big sprawling roman style collesium that would be apart of some city.

    Probably awesome, but can give rise to outcries for class 'balance'. They may need to try more cyrodiil small scale objectives first. This might spread the zerg out.

    Give us a reason to remain loyal to a server/remove guesting/consolidate servers after the lag is fixed. I remember the old days of DAOC before server transfers. You were stuck with the server you chose and the faction you chose. None of this making toons on 3 separate factions.

    Thinks adding arena's for small scale stuff/duels is a great idea. Then this whole alliance war, anti zerg attitude might disappear, as players wanting small scale have an arena.
