Why im mostly upset is that we got arenas, some perks and a reward track. Cool⦠oh leaderboards? no mention, disabled on ptr and most likely delayed again for who knows when
Iām switching to pve after looking at this roadmap
Those Leaderboards were traaaaash. I am glad they pulled them. It would have been legitimately bad to implement that. Hopefully one of those āthis is list is not exhaustive of all changesā things is gonna be something for PvP.
I will say though that if their version of a āraidā is just killing a worm, then they have a lot to learn about what real raiding is. Granted WoW has had 1 boss raids like Ony etc. but their raids by far are the best in the mmo industry imo and should be 7-12 bosses in an immersive place.
But, I am surprised there hasnāt been a new OPR type map or other pvp type things like CTF for example.
World bosses? We could have already had world bosses if AGS had the backbone to put in anti-zerg mechanics to stop chest runs.
Expeditions? More M10s to chain run. Yeehaw. How exciting.
Raids? Itās bad enough finding a competent group for M10s. You want to increase the number of players you need to find? How exciting. Iām sure theyāll be REALLY hard.
Gear sets? Ok, explain to me whatās exciting about that please.
These announcements add/change nothing meaningful about the game. Pass.
Can you imagine a mode that says āhere attack this particular targetā where theres only one hitscan weapon? Its like having CoD CTF if only a few people have guns and the rest have only knives.
All this is solved by joining a company. Do chest runs with 20 company members nad you just did your own anti-zerg mechanic. Its trivially easy to find M10 group members from any company of decent size and activity. Full companies will form to do raid content if that becomes a major part of the game. Maybe this is the reality check that GROUP content is tough as an antisocial player.
