In-Realm SC

Is it possible to implement, or would the dev team ever consider order vs order/des vs des scenario's? Perhaps not for regular sc's, but for Caledor woods (or other 6v6 sc)?

Although I have only dabbled in Caledor Woods since playing on the private server, I think it would be good for the 6v6 scene if the Order/Des premades could fight their own realm.

Partly because the queues are extremely slow sometimes/don't pop, but it also seems that most of the groups willing to queue for the 6v6 sc are on order. It would remedy queue times and give people more opposition.

Just spit balling, crucify me if necessary.

It's not a terrible idea in and of itself... this just gives me thousand-yard-stare-inducing flashbacks of a certain MMORPG(swtor) and a really awful instanced PvP map(Huttball) that was the only map that was setup to have members of the same side fight eachother. This resulted in only that scenario(battleground) popping 9/10 times for the faction with higher pop(it was like 60-40). Think highpass cemetary being same faction but you're on Destru with a 60-40 skew and you can't swap sides. Horrible.

I can really appreciate the thinking outside of the box (sorry, I really hate chiches, too), but in the absence of an organized arena type environment or specialized SC, I think this would be detrimental to the general population.

In this state of RvR, any co-mingling of realms would only lead to the dimunition of the hatred and contempt that ideally should exist between then opposing realms.

Sorry for typos- I'm at a stoplight.

SCs don't cause that much salt. Well, usually, not when compared to ORvR. Besides, there is no realm pride on this server because you can play both sides... the 'hatred' in this game is for filthy x-realmers, not the opposite realm in general.

Unrelated, but I've noticed lately that as more people bandwagon onto the "xrealmers made us fail at x/y/z" the definition is starting to get expanded to people who play both sides in general. Not that it matters, since the people with the loudest mouths are also the most useless.
