Return of Reckoning

I'll make it brief

Suggestion

Forts should be 24v24 instanced scenario

Cities should be 200 vs 200, one or two Cities instances for the whole server.

Make it the other way around. Let it be a TRUE City invasion.

A fort is so small and a city is so big, it just makes sense for a city to hold 400 players fightin in there, and a fort should hold 48 players in it, make it happen!

and...throw away that paradigm about everything has to be reduced to a Choke fight.

I for one would love to have a huge numbers fight in the city. With lots of NPCs to murder along the way. Make it feel like a real pillage and plunder of the capital.

Wouldn't this mean that order never wins forts and the destro city thus never gets attacked?

The instancing of the forts is a problem as the maps are not instance maps but part of the world maps .

You might have noticed that all instance maps are isolated and not attached to thw world maps

But with client control, wouldn't it be possible to make them separate from world maps (even if just as a copy)?

About OP idea: I'd prefer to City Sieges stay 24vs24 and Forts become 24vs24 too.

Client control y, new weapons. Not convinced that they have cut and paste of map areas sorted.
Can hope but think that it’s lots and lots of work

A git can dream.

It will depend if they rework the way Cities and Forts are won. There's a variaty of Score systems than could be implemented in these instances to not reduce everything to a choke fight.

i will much like to see forts as instance based.. dosnt have to be 24/24.. but the whole pop could join 3 instance based forts.. the realm with 2x wins, win the fort.. will also makes forts more equal, so you dont see the best destro guilds rolling over pug orders, and vise-versa then there are 3 forts going.. also should be less stressfull for the server ?

Yeah, i like that idea, instanced fortress and whoever wins the most, wins the fort and push to city.
