Guild Wars 2

I know this has nothing to do with the current Conquest and these are just my dreams running wild and away from the boring PvP atm (I also know that Anet will never implement the actual mode).
I recently delved into WoW and I have to say that even tho the balance is crap, the Battlegrounds are an amazing experience. I’ve been toying with the idea for quite some time since and I was surprised that my friends loved it as well. That’s why I really want to hear everyone’s opinion, even if it is only for my consolation, as the game modes in the current game can no longer provide fun for me (WvW has too many gankers/blobs). Of course the gamemode would need some features to differentiate it from others:

• No point capture as it promotes bunker gameplay
• A large enough map (mobility would be of a big importance) with a healthy does of varied terrain (not too much LOS, not too many elevations)
• Some mechanics of course (intended to split up people, it would prevent forming blobs of 20 ppl)
• Rewards for playing the gamemode

I know people will probably ignore this thread, as it does not directly refer to the current PvP state, but or me, it would be the best thing there has ever been in this game. I wanna know how many people would also like this kind of game mode.

the problem here is u are thinking about something that might make pvp more fun, rather than more esports.

change your pov to, how can we make it more esports, then you will be able to think from anet perspective. from there u will see, the possibilities are limited

They have that one map no one ever voted for

I would love some capture-the-flag maps.

but it seems like the sPvP game rooms can only handle 20 players max per room.

we need a casual 10 vs 10 large map for hotjoin madness.

the current 5v5 conquest maps are too small.

That’s what wvw is for

That is not what WvW is for. WvW is for large scale unbalanced chaos. sPvP is for smaller scale slightly balanced chaos.

Not really. WvW can be played in small groups.

Until you are limited to a single amulet for stats and have to take runes as an entire set and are restricted access to certain stat combos and are fighting only one group of enemies in set team sizes, WvW is not sPvP. So let’s not use that weak comparrison to dismiss what the OP wants, since WvW is clearly not the answer. ;-P
