4v4v4 for battlegrounds?

I imagined it'd be more like 10v10v10 and/or 30v30v30.

Kind of bummed that the teams will be so small. Is there any chance they'll increase this? Or make more battlegrounds that holds more people?

Edit: 10v10v10 is what I'd prefer.

    Should have it be of all sizes depending on the type of battleground. If it's like Arena 1/2/3/4s would be awesome. If it's like Arathi then 10/20v 10/20. Battlegrounds should have something for everyone. Small medium and large scale.

    Perhaps in time we'll see that. 30v30v30, for now, can be found in game. Go to the last remaining emp keep at primetime, and you will see that or higher =)

    4v4v4 will be unplayable, how will you kill 2 dk tank and 2 healbot ?

    If they dont change the pvp, arena will be cancer, more than cyrodil, you will play against people who dont care to win, they will be here to not loose, and they will not

    10 v 10 v 10

    and

    30 v 30 v 30

    is Cyrodiil.

    That's already in the game.

    But yes, im sure eventually more battlegrounds and what-not will come. More than likely, at least a year away.

    How will the 2 tanks and healers kill anything else is the real question.

    And to answer your ridiculous hypothetical, with good dps and focus targetting.

    I'm guessing you don't play in cyrodiil lol. Tanks can and will do just as much damage as damage dealers in cyrodiil, with the added bonus of having like 15k more resistances. In cyrodiil it's not much of a problem cause you can just ignore them and fight someone who's not mentally challenged, however in battlegrounds you'll either have to fight them or just disconnect.

    Why do you need 10vs10? I'd say 2vs2vs2 is the max for a fun fight, otherwise you don't know who did the awesome attack, who put down what ability, what move did your mate make. You really don't want more than 6 in a fighting ground.

    With 4v4v4 it will be the same people and the exact same builds inside of a week...during that time boosters will log in and feed one team to the top and exploit the leaderboards and absolutely no one will play the battleground. ZOS isn't and hasn't addressed exploiting and boosting, and until they do any new features will be abused and cheated in the same way.

    It will indeed be cyro all over, with one exception, absolutely no variation in builds or group will happen in short order and become stale immediately when the only players are either exploiting or good teams. Good teams, much as they say otherwise, want to attack people who are not looking to 1v x or 4vx......they want to force that play on the ones playing the map and without that variation the battlegrounds will end quickly.

    i'm hoping they put double ultimate costs in those battlegrounds so ultimate make an impact and aren't something you'll see 2-3times a minute

    I was hoping for capture the flag, usually like 10-15 people each side no? And yes, Cyrodiil is technically a giant map of capture the scroll, but I was thinking more locally in Morrowind itself.

    ahahahahahaha show me that, pro player, you just cant, as heal bot i can resist easily at 10 guys, so 4 i can with one hand

    and they dont need to kill if it's just a flag versus, they just have to stay alive

    I understand. A 10v10v10 sounds like a happy medium. I enjoy medium sized battles most.

    It should have been 3v3, 4v4, and 5v5 modes. No stealth. No ultimates. No three-ways.

    I'd assume if battlegrounds are a success we will see more game modes, maps, and team sizes available. If they're wildly successful we may get a new class pretty quickly(6-9 months from release)

    We already have zergs, no need for other zergs, we need some kind of small scale pvp.

    battlegrounds will either be a pain to play because of balance or rest of this game will suck because balance changes to silence the cries of the battleground fighters, so a lose-lose situation i guess

    I'm not saying small-scale PvP is a bad thing. It's good that they have it. I enjoy medium-sized PvP battles (ex. 10v10v10).
