So you want even more faction stacking in one location, just to prevent your pugs from getting farmed at arrius or glade? That's a terrible idea.

Planetside 2 does this with good effect.

Make every keep/fort/castle that isnt connected to an enemy keep locked to capture. This will force factions into creating a true frontline in the Alliance War. The only way to reach the enemy faction's home keeps and gates is by advancing along the transit lattice one keep at a time. No more back capping empty home keeps, no more annoying destro ult groups riding across the entire map to farm Arrius. Resources can still be captured to disrupt a faction's supply transitus chain, but keeps themselves remain protected until the frontline reaches them.

Errr, why exactly do we want a front line? And not being able to hit the back keeps without going through every other keep first will basically destroy the point of having the Elder Scrolls as an objective.

Now something I would like to see from Planetside 2 is the occasional random objectives - 'faction with the most lumber mills at the end of an hour gets a chunk of bonus AP', stuff like that. Or transports that can carry more than one player.

Forced Zerg lol . Are you kidding? It feels like you're kidding .

yeah that's not a great idea. you'd just have entire factions moving in one straight line... which would kinda suck.

Ewww... gross!

On a side note, do people still play PS2?

I do love getting reminded what the community is like when you say something unpopular. Really shows their true colors.

Like it or not the fact remains it would make things better as well as some things worse. Lag could get worse, but youd never be in a small battle again. Capturing a keep and advancing would MEAN something. Itd be an achievement. This is not "just some zerglings" wetdream. Seriously if you people cant face fighting an army as an army and instead resort to riding across the map to seal club randoms in the back keeps with your Destro Ults and gank builds, then you really need to git gud.

I guess this will surprise you, but some of us like small battles. Their absence is not something I'd support. Neither is any increase in the inevitable zerglag, or being forced to be where it is. No thank you.

It sounds like you're getting rolled at your back keeps. Yes? Sympathies. Part of the problem imo is that defending anything is not rewarding in the AP sense, and a coordinated group hitting a back keep isn't much of a threat to anybody's offensive ambitions, so not much rushing to your aid. They could fix that by adjusting how AP is awarded, but don't hold your breath. The other problem is people are just bored with the Alliance War and its objectives, and doing whatever is rewarding or whatever is particularly fun for them. It's probably not going to be fun or rewarding for anybody not-them.

But why is being in a small battle automatically a bad thing???

I always wonder what various games would be like on maps from others.

Bridge fight with your BF4 character stuff like that. An ESO raid running around on a PUBG map etc

must be a day for silly ideas
