WAR (Warhammer Online)

They provide a quick and easy way for someone to get in a group where you know you aren't going to be totally outleveled/outnumbered and start PVPing.  That's what I want from a game (the PVP combat part especially).  I have other beefs with WAR but they basically got scenarios right (more variety than WoW) even if they aren't perfect.  Who wants to grind MoBs to get xp?  Who thinks that fighting other factions over hunting ground access rights is what PvP should be about?  Who thinks that running level 20 pvp quests are cool in areas where level 30s go just to gank the level 20s trying to do their pvp quests?

That's the problem with scenarios..they made them TOO accessible. People are ignoring the rest of the game because they are so easy.

Mindless zombie grinding of scenarios, meh. I would not be dissapointed if they removed them completely.

The problem is that they're making the rest of the actual game world empty and boring. Most importantly, they're killing world RvR, which is suppose to be the main feature of this game.

Again, we all saw how Battlegrounds killed WoW's world PvP, I personally don't want to see that happen with WAR.

It already did.. it will only get worse over time as more and more of teh ADD kids get to max rank they can stand and then re-roll... and want to do something that no one that has the stomach to stick it out wants to do again participates in world RvR...

I agree Scenario's are killing this game for me, some time's they are fun other time's they are just an annoyance with ppl either not knowing what to do or are just plain old crap, but then spend more time in Scenarios then what i do in the actual game world just to be able to keep up with everyone else.

I like the game it is Fun but am finding myself logging in less and less for this reason alone i think because i bought the Game to play in the Warhammer Universe but find my self in some Generic Scenario 80% of the time i play, may as well go and play Gunz, or Fury if it were still alive.

Scenarios are amazingly boringly designed. The most complicated tactic in T1-T3 scenarios is to go around and cap a capture point behind opposing team. The scenarios are dumbed down as much as possible and even so the people playing WAR are in most cases unable to grasp any tactic that includes doing more than charging into opposing team.

...you must nto of played Talabac Dam or Troll Crossing.....the capture point ones are the most simplistic of all of them besides the murder ball ones.   Talabac Dam and Troll Crossing are nothing like those.  What else do you think there should be in a fucking Scenario I mean honestly its a mini game how many Mini Games are heavily complicated?  

hopefully the halloween event is a decent indication of what the RvR lakes will be like after 1.1 Patch where they add more things to do into the RvR lakes like PQs etc.   They should of done it from the beginning but atleast it seems to draw people away from the scenarios since they get phat loots *rolls her eyes*

I don't understand the complaints about 'mindless zombies grinding scenarios'.  Did you ever stop to think that we enjoy the PvP in scenarios?  It's fast paced, more challenging then PvE, provides better gear, and fair XP.  It's not all about min/max and the fastest way to level cap.

Some people feel that your liking of scenarios are ruining the way they prefer to play.  They are calling for changes to benefits to make orvr more attractive and/or to kill off scenarios.  Some people asked for server without scenarios.

Killing off scenarios could end up being this games NGE.
