Open the 3 zones already

Post#1 » Wed Oct 05, 2022 6:54 pm

There is no point to have only 2 zones open. Like the other day having 1 zone that had only order and the other Dw having order blocking the only entrance to the west of the map on that hill. Can we open the 3 zones already. It's boring for both faction.

Sounds like you were heavily outnumbered and/or outclassed at that particular moment.

What exactly would a third zone have done for you in this scenario?
- You wanted another place to be spawn camped?
- Were you hoping to have a quiet place to run boxes for a bit before getting overrun there as well?
- Maybe a place to get a little PvD in before getting crushed?

population is never that big for 3 open zones there will aways only be 1 active zone while the others have 8 or less players progressing the keeps

3 outcomes from 3 open zones:

1: nothing, people will pile on 1 zone
2: guild warbands will kite pugs through all 3 zones until they tire out then theyll siege the keep they were wanting
3: there will always be a warband sieging a empty zone because 3 zones are hard to micromanage with 400 - 600 players being the norm pop and 200 at its worst.

It gives warbands more options to outmanoeuvre the blob and push other zones. Or at least split the blob so its easier to compete.

Two zones is good enough for both straight up battles and tactical manouvering should you get people willing to play as team.

Avoiding battle either way gets you killed elsewhere

No. Would only allow more dodging, pvdoor and box running

I think the main arguement is being missed, for why 3 zones should be available.
Not all zones are equal...

If Caledor, KV are the only two options there will be players, groups, or guilds who simply get a worse evening because of the open available zones. Having 3 open means that there are a higher chance for a better balanced open rvr map will be availabel, henec the product and fight potential being higher.
