Howling Gorge Flags

I commend the effort for the rework to the Howling Gorge Scenario, with exception to the one flag unlocked at a time. I am sure I am not alone in my thinking here, before with the bomb the teams had to split up, with some watching the bomb others in the middle and some farming the spawn point. Now it is just best geared team wins... Anyone know what side has more high end geared players. Why not make all flags open so at least the losing side can sneak a few points here and there, Imo it would make the scenario a lot more enjoyable for the losing side or pugs.

this topic has bene raised numerous time and is understood by the majority of people
king of hill favours destro as it doesnt require splitting up or tactical changes of plan and can lead to many 500-0 stomping where losing team is annihilated, and gets zero reward for any efforts they put in 75% of wins 500-0 47-0 kills, avg score 500-120, 37-3 kills
multiple base scens and objectives are fair and balance out and the losers gets good renown and good kills and rewarded for their efforts, only 1% of wins are 500-0, the avg score 500-360 22-8 kills.
what baffles me is why did the Gms/dev change howling gorge frm objective running to king of hill/tug of war for the event and ALOSO put it alongside 2 other ECAT SAME tug of war scenarios for the daily choice,
howling gorge
battle for prarag
gromgrill crossing
like going into an ice cream parlour and saying the choice is strawberry ice cream, strawberry ice cream or strawberry ice-cream
seems strange to have 3 of the exact same scens on the list at once.
last two weeks have been multiple base scens enjoyed by 1 and all and some great close scens with no premades farming because they arent 3misn faceroll 500-0 wins, so suppose its only fair premade heaven king fo hill raises its head again, just dont get why there are 3 of them on at same time

This sc is more than 3min long (6/8min for 500). So as you say you can't fight faceroll 500-0 premade
We are alpha tester, so if dev make a change, we have to test it for them (for the "3 of them on at same time")

Because he's a solo pug who's gameplay consists of backcapping random flags.

thats because the order winning are just that good. Filthy destro know nothing beside zerging with their OP classes ! They really should aspire to become good, like Billyk and the superiorly skilled order that have to overcome such hurdles to even play the game
