You have several zones ,Kv,DW,BFP etc that already have tunnels aka ways to port around besides the BO ports if holding and players still die,respawn , walk to exact spot of death 10 sec prior Die again then complain being camped. I honestly agree with few people, they deserve it. If you can't think on ur own how to walk around a map that takes 2min or less to navigate the entire zone almost .. you deserve it. Praag is a HUGE example .. push WC die and complain being camped, order side LITERALLY has a left and right path and people still walk up the stairs,die and complain.

My point wasnot to help ”stupid players” that deserve spawn camping.

The point was to buff the numerical disadvantaged side with fast travel to different parts of the maps in order to force the blob to split / move instead of static feed on a bridge or back and forward tango on martyrs.

Surprised to see people think newcomers or other players deserve being spawn camped.

In short >>> give weaker/smaller side FASTER travel to play a strategic game of hit and run

Also pretty accurate.

Also, what is the point of running a 'Meta Warband' when there is no competition? What do the victories actually represent in such a format?

That's correct, there are several ways to enter rvr zone, when you just look on your map. Some alternative routes go through pve areas. If one side is camped at spawn, they deserve it.
'They deserve it' one of the worst things you can say regarding players. Hopefully, you will get a restriction order that will never allow you anywhere closer than 20 miles to anything game design related.
We talk about T4, no?
Don't you think players manage to open map when they make it to rank 40?
This is no game design flaw, when players for no good reason ignore to use one of the many exit ways out of their warcamp.

People get camped because they play like they do since T1 Festenplatz rvr, spawn in, move forward until you meet an enemy and die, rinse and repeat.

The dev team could add huge arrows on the map to lead the direction but then again you would have to open the map in the first place.

there are many ways to exit the warcamp but there are not so many ways to enter a keep under siege. its mostly impossible to get into a keep alone when enemies are roaming around the keep zone and even camp the pve walk in paths.
after dying many times right before getting in keep i dreamed about a portal or a copter fly over it to help out the keep defence

You do know that this exists right? Get a box and talk to the outside warcamp flight master.

Or are you just memeing and i didn't catch the sarcasm.

Your dreams are almost true! Outside each Warcamp is an NPC that (usually) looks like a flight master. If you have a resource from a BO or dead enemy, a kindly conversation and consumption of the resources will get you into your sides keep. If your guild owns it, and purchases the upgrades, you can fly in for free some limited number of times which can be great for quick response times and strategic gameplay!
