This is about Howling Gorge being changed to objective running keg, to a king of the hill tug of war 1 base only scen for the event

also that there were two exact same scenarios on the list as well both tug of war
gromgrill crossing
and Praag

just seems strange ud have 3 all the exact same on at same time, not much choice there tbh

the weekend event scen has not had an objective based runner scen for a long time, i think last one was Serpent passage about 15 weeks ago, if memory serves
would have been nice if howlign gorge had been kept as a keg run for the event, or if it had to be changed to king of hill tug of war fine but then remove gromgrill and praarg form the same list and replace them with another scen type,

just would like a logical well considered choice for scens

All BO's open :lol: :lol: :lol: Dev's dont want solo-friendly gameplay... get a group or die trying, sneaking BO's is accidental solo-friendly content,

and this can not be tolerated!

howling gorge
battle for prarag
gromgrill crossing

like going into an ice cream parlour and saying the choice is strawberry ice cream, strawberry ice cream or strawberry ice-cream

seems strange to have 3 of the exact same scens on the list at once.
The server randomly generates a new list of scenarios for the rotation every Monday. So it was System.Random that picked that selection.

Can't wait for Phoenix Gate as the pug scenario for the next month. That's a single objective as well.

Spoiler alert! -> Phoenix Gate has more than a single objective

While the blob goes for the Objective you can sneak arround and tap theirs and deliver at bridge ;)

The stronger/weaker arguments aside for a second, King of the Hill style favors melee ball while dispersed objectives favor ranged classes (or at least level things out a bit). Destro is heavier into melee ball than Order for a variety of reasons.

Anyway, I too, was disappointed they chose to make it another GC clone. I had hoped for some more dispersed play in particular b/c a lot of premades have a tough time (mentally) adjusting to that.

nor can i as long as gms/devs have fixed the base to bridge for 50 points drop off destro bias flag run that is not equal distance at all, and destro can take flag 2nd and still stroll to bridge over 12 SECONDS closer to the drop off than a sprinting order as pointed out on 2 threads already.

still waiting for action on this, cmon Wargrimmir, move the destro flag 12 secs closer to bridge plz so game is fair

remember gromgrill crossing scenario? destro stated correctly order base was 3 seconds closer to middle so gms/devs rapidly corrected it so destro were not at 3 seconds disadvantage

yet strangely Phoenix gate order have been stating correctly for more than THREE YEARS that destro are 12 seconds closer to dropping flag off at middle bridge and order at a major disadvantage, yet strangely nothing has been done or any reason why nothing has been done despite two detailed forum posts and bug reports about this.....,

Even Chinesehero (God rest his soul) pointed this out time ago and nothing was done

cmon Wargrim lets have some parity please. move the destro flag 12 secs closer to the middle bridge drop off point, tuvm

Yes, all Destro players are filthy clickers that only like to pew pew what is in front of them, and all Order players are tactical geniuses that sleep with Sun Tzu's teachings at their bedside. Perfect explanation for why Destro outperforms you consistently when you solo pug all day.
