Allaince battles are Canthas equivalnet to Tyirias HOH!!
AENT DO THIS PLZ!!
Give us Fame and all of that I love the PVP system it owns 12 on 12 pvp omfg it is so fun dude i boon prot monk and have 30 minions attacking me 3 assasins and i survive!! its great!!!
ANET, if you want to make your game PVP perfect like Tyria or Prophecies with the HOH GVG system, I assume you are going to add GVG in Cantha and make Alliance Battles fame based with something in the end... I don't know but I know you guys can do it!
And please let us make TWELVE (12) MAN GROPUS
Its annoying having a bunch of noobs enter when the time begins lol.
I can't wait to IWAY in Cantha Alliance battles!

We don't need another "Heroes Ascent" in Cantha.

I think they are keeping the 4 man team to avoid those dominating group builds...

Yeah, think of a 12 man spike team. You'd be able to spike 2, maybe 3 targets at once. It'd be nuts.

I agree no emotes in this style pvp. i think because there is new skills i way will dye out. I also think if they buff elemental to what is was sapose to be i way would dye out.

Battle Isles is open to both Prophesies and Factions.

It's the place where all of the chapters will come together.

12 man spike would be overkill anyway. It would probably just be two separate six man squads doing their thing against whatever they see. Going in with 4 ranger spikers is fun too ^^.

With 3 separate 4 man groups, there's no way of knowing how terrible the other 8 people are going to be, so its almost pointless to even make a group. The only reason you'd want to is to have those 4 spikers, or 4 characters that have lots of synergy.

a 12 man spike team will be complete bs in factions. counting heal party as they are counting down spikes. symbosis(sp?) will be a requirement by most groups now. 10 blood spikes will be at least 550 damage. and a couple will get the skill off before hp drops below 50% so they get to do 100 damage. and if any damage is done to them heal party will be casted so (IE)7 people hitting heal party will give a group heal of 350health + at least

I cant wait to get my Spike team into this 12 man battle thing i keep hearing about. sounds like its gonna be interesting to say the least :-P

I'm just going to dissagree with everyone here on every topic/post they have and call it a day.

I'm not going to repeat myself on th ewhole meaning of a 'preview/beta event', I just find it humorous watching people crap all over themselves over things that may change fairly drastically between now and release of GWF. Yes, it is only a month away for release, however that doesn't stop it from undergoing some serious change to fix certain flaws or issues that we've all lovingly found for them to fix.

not entirely... Even with a good, organized 4 man team, you still get paired with that wammo who has all forms of chat turned off and rushes the base defenders, but it's OK becuase mending will stop the defender's silly skill.

I've faced IWAY in GvG before, and the map is no smaller in most cases.

I really like 12v12. There is a lot that you can do with a organised team of 4 even if the other 8 are less well organised. I'd rather have the current random grouping system stay instead of having complete 12 man builds running around. The unpredictability of this match is part of it's appeal, I think.

My only gripe is that even with two full districts on either side, it takes quite a while for matches to start. We should be allowed to play across servers ie Americans matching up with Europeans. Although communication may be an issue. lets say with French and Koreans playing together on the same side, being able to communicate within your team of 4 should suffice.

Luxons in Alliance Battles are a lot like the Zaishen in Heroes' Ascent: only the shittiest teams lose to them.

At this point anyway.
