What do you think?

Being able to call in air raids is just cool.

I hope that the cap is high enough accomodate all the people that are gonna wanna participate at a given time. If you think the server queue is bad, yeesh... How many people are they gonna try to fit in this one instance? Don't really wanna log on, get a place in line, and wait three hours to pvp

I have a feeling they'll be adding more battleground instances, with a slight variation in scenery etc in each.

The queue in this instance could be a good thing, and it's not like you're logging on to wait to pvp... you're just waiting to participate in this 'raid' of sorts. I'm willing to bet normal honor points will be awarded for kills outside of the battlegrounds. So you can in fact pvp without a queue, just like you can now.

Truthfully, what's another feasible option to balancing out the battlegrounds? I guess they could go with the dynamic guard spawn etc like DAOC, but then it would end up just like DAOC... a large scale PvP game that can't support large scale PvP.

My only concern is the queue to enter as well. If it's not performed on the whole group (IE all 5 people get the same spot in line) then you will end up waiting for your friends to get in even while you are there. Also, it's a huge negative, because you really can't do much of anything while waiting on the queue, because right when you are in the middle of it you may have to ditch the people you are with. Now, if honor is still awarded outside the BGS and you can still gain honor and title that way, then it won't be as much of a problem I guess, but I hate to think that I wait 2 hours to get into the BGs, then get halfway through an instance and have to bail on my group, or turn down the queue teleport (assuming it teleports you) and have wasted my time in the first place.

Sounds Gay IMO, Another reason I think this isn't a PVP designed Game. Hopefuly they can pull their heads out of their asses and do it right the first time.

Frankly, i'm not impressed at all. With Server Ques, Class imbalance, and a supposed PvP system. But if they hit the 3rd right I don't mind a little class imbalance or waiting to log on the game. They fuck it up then I will wait for a better PvP game and not waste my time.

Cause we all know what happens when you wait for a game to get fixed. It just doesn't happen.

Can I have your stuff?

Edit: You play a warrior Ting... which is a class they're looking at under the dev light.

Ting is so smart!

All Hail Ting!!

[Rhuac]

So smart eh? He can't even spell 'queue' right.
