Simply make that scenarios that got multiple objects (like crag) autoend if a faction makes 5-0 on objectives count. No point in spawn camping

anything more complex than hold flag/relic simply has to go. talabec dam is not fun. twisting tower is not fun. the custom map where you have to kill npcs is not fun either. i believe majority of people (me included) just want to duke it out in the middle

Then scenarios are not for you. Scenarios are not "zergpits" nor dps races.

Everyone fighting in the middle, also known as blobbing, is generally considered unfun and has serious detrimental effects on a game's population.

that's a fairly unsubstantiated statement
when nordland was open all of the time t1 was alive 24/7 with the endless mosh pit at festenplaz. now it's completely dead, so few people play t1 rvr its nearly impossible to complete the kill quests before hitting 16
when the event sc is bfb or nordland or ekrund you get pops constantly all day as everyone wants to play them, whereas if its something like twisting tower or dam it can be hard to finish the event tasks if you're playing NA time because nobody wants to play them
im tired of pretending that most players want to do anything other than ooga booga in the middle, it reeks of elitism

I am no one. But scenarios got points to cap for win. You get no win for more dps in the zergpit.

That is why scenarios like tower are hard to pop: they force strategy over zerging.

A lot of issues get fixed by simply introducing a discordant Queue for weekend SC, or a solo Q that forces 2-2-2
Keep the regular one active for 6 man premades to fight each other, since it's a high activity time anyways on weekends. Give them a much higher RR/crest per win/loss rewards for their trouble, and everyone is happy.
