Player Limit In IC Districts

Voltos · September 2015

We were having a nice bout between AD, DC and EP in the Memorial District last night, when a horde of zergbad AD rolled through and wiped the district. I play AD exclusively, and was pissed that my faction disrupted our relatively balanced pvp battle. I shouted for them to leave several times, and when they finally did, both EP and DC had amassed so many players to combat the zerg, that any smaller scale pvp was impossible.

I would love to see a player limit per faction imposed in the districts, or some other way to spread out the pvp. I imagine the feedback from this will be as delightful as spitting into the wind, but I had to put in my two cents.

Hey, I was there trying to quest. You probably killed me a couple of times. :-P

I did try to help a bit, but I was trying a new skill set and I don't think that works too well for my play style (that and I accidentally had my heals on my destro bar for a bit).

It was fun while it was relatively small-scale, even if I suck at PvP. And I did persevere and get my quest done before moving to the next district to do the quest there.

AD are the worst offenders when it comes to zerging. That's not to say that DC or EP don't zerg, but from my experience every time I've encountered a large group, 20+, in IC districts or sewers its been AD.

I have no idea how to counter the zerg mentality though, seems even if you took all rewards away people would still roll in zergs just to troll the other factions.

You're probably right. I don't get it either. Running with a zerg isn't even fun.

The AD zergged and hogged the arena forever by the time they left there wasn't even enough of both of the other factions combined that didn't say this is BS and leave to have a ghost of a chance to complete the damn quest! they obviously did it more than enough times to get the damn achievement and just wanted to be jerks. perhaps you should add a limit to how long people can camp in quest areas without SEVERE penalties.

Calling all covenent and pact members! next time this *** happens let's just team up against the dominion instead of doing their jobs for them outside the gate I've done this once before in a small campaign so you guys can swallow your pride and do it as well.

Not to rain on your parade, but forget the quests. They never should have been a part of IC to begin with. We need pvp objectives in the IC districts, but instead we get a pve grind fest.

I just want to get the costumes and stuff especially the soul shriven skin... But yeah I do agree on having some PvP objectives and also limit it so if the player difference is more than 1 on the larger side either penalties happen or the kill won't count.
