I don’t figure any of this will get done, let alone by the holidays, but a man can dream! Heck, I never figured I’d have this glorious mustache, but LOOK AT ME NOW!

With the release of the 1.4 patch and all of the amazing open RvR that has come with it, I’ve been inspired to write something about WAR nearly every night I log on (I just don’t write it all down because, let’s face it, what you DO get is bad enough, and the stuff I hold back is even worse). The game has its hooks further into me than ever before and I once again feel like I have an MMO to call my home. That’s not to say that I wouldn’t mind moving the furniture though…or even have summer homes. So, here is a quick list of some ideas that I’ve had that I think could help with the player experience in WAR. Let me know what you think below in the comments!

Pimp my Keep – With the new keep mechanics, each side has one keep to defend, and one keep to attack. I absolutely love the change as it gives a clear objective for offense and allows players to have some ownership of something to defend. Going along with the latter, I’d love it if Mythic would take a look at each side’s respective keep. Now, I’m not saying they should remove the Dwarven-made destruction keep and replace it with a Greenskin model, but make it look like it’s been altered by the side that has control of it. Place some symbolism around the walls and in the courtyard to show “who runs Barter Town.” MASTA BLASTA!

AoE Siege + Fire – The upgrade in damage output and being able to deploy siege weaponry out on the battlefield is a huge improvement to the game, but much like Bootae said, the AoE cannons still kind of suck. These things should move people out of any area they strike. Easy fix: combine the AoE hit with a fire effect like the aerial bombers get.

Guild Slay Love – I’ve mentioned it on the podcast, but I’m puttin’ it on paper! Well, on the internet! I really hope that Mythic takes a close look at the whole guild system. My guild currently consists of two people. It used to have a much higher number, but most of the crew is swimming in the MMOcean, occasionally climbing aboard from time to time. Sure, I don’t expect the guild’s rank to move very consistently with this many people, but I don’t think it’s budged for a few weeks now. Maybe some rewards system could be put into place based on RvR accomplishments. If you participate in a keep or city siege, you get a token that can be turned in for a specific amount of guild XP. I dunno…something.

That’s all I got for now. You have anything you want changed in WAR? Drop it the comments and all your wishes will come true!
