The time is passing, really.
We need organized pvp, and I dont mean wars. There are schedules, requirements (100 players, guild, etc) which are also limitations (big guilds, you play every other war).
What about ranked arenas?
ranked 10x10 matches? ranked oprs?
A game that has no matchmaking criteria cant be taken seriously. Ive run into arena teammates without ANY gear, ANY experience and not even knowing how to cast skills and what they do. Its an immediate quit.
You are hurting players experience by doing this. Immediately quit and back to WoW arenas.
I do love NW tho, so I keep coming back, to queue in an opr and face 4 premade teams, in a 90% bow/musket zero criteria opr game.
Complaining is easy, there is TOO MUCH to complain about
what if you guys do what needs to be done tho? it will help
ranked arenas. premades x solos.
ranked 10x10. Capture the flag, hold the points, you pick. There are WoW Rated Battegrounds for you to use as a base. Not hard, come on, blueprint is there and guess what, IT WORKS, and in all honesty it would turn NW into one of the best, if not the best, pvp mmo
Trying to be positive but is quite hard at this point.
They’d need cross server play to have a meaningful ranked system. Otherwise you’ll end up fighting the same group of people and have really long queues.
NW needs another game mode that offers casual, PvP centric combat experience. Either 10v10 or 30v30 whatever, small wars if you will. Cross server platform with proper match-making system would be a cherry on top but sadly we’re months if not a year away from making this happen.
I mean its been a year since release and OPR has only one map. We must be realistic.
Really welcoming ranked games not only arena but Ranked OPRs with 20 man premades will be an absolute banger.
Although I see an issue for those as we really need cross server play to have these things not being boring or have long queues.
And then theres the balance component for it ( god I had to play an arena against 2 Healers. We won but imagine having 2 good healers against you with you having only one :x )
I play mostly Solo Arena as well so I feel you - who wants a musket player in their premade team anyways :x
I mean we were lucky those 2 healers were morons else that would have been absolutely dumbass comp. We were loosing 2:0 but managed to get the hang of it in the third and reverse sweeped them at the end luckily.
ye but if the healer is not dumb all he has to do is throw a sacred keep fortify permanently up and thats that ur never ever gonna get him down :x
But you need 2-3 braincells for that which seems to be a sparse amount of people in the Lightstaff community
imagine that
the comp possibilities, variations
WoW has shown us it works, in a TAB target game.
honestly, if AGS can implement a similar ‘WoW battleground’ mode, game will pop
capture the flag
secure certain objective
capture the points
hold the fort/attack the fort = mini war game. 10/20/25 ppl, 2 rounds, atk/def, winner on time.
there is a world of ideas.
we just wanna know if any of these are in the radar, and if this is the case, when should we expect anything similar?
