WOULD LIKE SOME SMALL BATTLE GROUNDS 10-15-40 PLAYERS

DuelWieldingCheesyPoofs
I would love to see some smaller scale pvp battlegrounds!

Im a pvper mainly but Im not getting the same satisfaction I did from wow battlegrounds, they were much smaller and 1 person could really make a difference, i like the ESO pvp but It is just a zerg fest, I want to see duels and arena! comon ESO its easy for you guy to make please!

I find my self doing PVE mainly now and I really miss small scale pvp battlegrounds like capture the flag ect, Would even go back to wow because I really miss that and i think this game would be awsome with these!

    Battlegrounds are terrible. Go PvP in Cyrodiil.

    The reason alot of us came to this game is for the DAoC style PvP. The population is kinda shaky at the moment and I feel that adding another PvP activity would destabilize it further.

    So what? It's fine if people move to something more attractive. They can always improve Cyrodiil if they wanna keep players coming there...

    +1 for OP.

    With the current state of the game this would only be another unrefined mess, yes in the future i'd like to have small scale tournament style matches, but with the current state of the game this would only end the current pvp base that exists.

    The fact that Zenimax decides to nerf skill lines before fixing broken skills, and seeing what's actually balancing issues or just a product of the inability of players to utilize skills as initially intended gives me little faith that they could pull this off.

    No please god no. NOOOOO!
    Devs srsly don't listen to this guys! Blizzards failed and you will fail! Don't make BGs, Arenas and such. WOW was perfect until they ruined all the fun and all the open world pvp with this synthetic "pvp". PLEASE DON'T RUIN THIS GAME.
    at least not now.

    I agree with the OP. We need some battlegrounds for all the other PvPers out there who prefer instant action. Strategy and Coordination is good and all, but sometimes I just wanna hop in to a brawl (where the numbers are limited, so I can get 1v1 or 1v2 more often).

    It just seems like PvP isn't a viable solo experience right now.

    Did WoW shut down? If you noobs miss it so bad you could still be playing yes?
    I will still look across the lands from my perch at Arrius, Nerf or no I will still be the Night. I may not be the hero Ebonheart Pact wanted but I will be the hero Ebonheart pact deserves.

    DAoC style battlegrounds would be AMAZING!

    Each BG has a central keep each faction fights over. Level limits on the BGs so that you don't have to grind VR levels and grind for VR gear.

    I would subscribe for a year if this was implemented!

    WOW is the ruin of pvp MMORPG, no fun at all, stupid arena pvp,after 1 hour it's so boring you do always the same things. Find pvp in cyrodill its possible and much more exciting, explore and camp reinforcements roads near keep taking, or check dungeons, if you wait, you always find pvp, but you want stupid istant arena and istant fights idk really how you can have fun with it, it's like playing unreal tournament with teso kind of design...

    More pvp options never a bad idea if you ask me. Although how some say it Might result in less pvp in cyrodill is a good assumption.

    I'd rather have them spend more time in developing cyrodiil.

    Low lvls can always form groups and take over farms/scout/heal/buff to assist the high levels.

    There's really enough challenge for everyone you just have to know where to find it.

    Hey guys, guess what? Arathi Basin is indeed a fun thing to do, and it is still there over in WoW! It never left! You can even do it for free forever now since it's one of the two battlegrounds available at level 10. So go! Gogogo (another thing people like to say in WoW) do AB now since you love it so much! What are you waiting for? Stables needs defending!

    Yea they need to fix things first, i dnt mind waiting, just saying i miss smaller pvp and seems others do too

    No!

    Even if cyradriil needs fixing, evolving etc, its a new type of pvp. Its actually battles where deception, tactics, teamwork, sometimes brute force or dumb luck can make or break a battle.

    I never liked pvp in my 15 years of playing MMORPG. ESO changed that for me. I am in there daily and try to shoot down enemy walls with catapults!

    It doesn't require skill, u can just follow people, maybe that's why you like it, i need more from pvp, but maybe you have a point keeping it on cryd, maybe AB mini pvp games around keeps, i mean all that's missing is stables lol, but not fighting nps crap, put players in there 10 maybe and instanced, who ever wins gets those resources toward the keep, but the point is, noone can zerg, 10 vs 10 requires skill and planing not just follow the zerg.

    LMAO, so People cant say that liked something in another game or found it fun without bringing the insults from the Fanboi crowd.

    Personally I haven't played WoW since the second week of the BC expansion. That's doesn't mean that I did not enjoy the battles in the AB BG. Sorry if at no time during your WoW experience you did not encounter anything that was fun for you.

    However when you personally start paying my subscription fees to games you can then tell me what I can and cannot say I liked
