So I gather you plan on just doing keeps forever and ever?
Let us know when it becomes old ok, that way we can say told ya so :)
Lol, u crazy?
WAR is not a "siege that keep" game. If you haven't noticed there is a "few" other things to do in this game.
In all my MMO experience I haven't played a game with so many different activities you can switch to and from at almost a moment's notice.
solo questing(same as any other game), public quests(same thing each chapter and tier)
no, nope have you done any of the heroic ones? or the one in elven tier 2 when you're advancing over a battlefield with 20+ mobs fighting by your side against waves of infantry, cavalry etc?
- solo for grinders and group for raiders, exploration outside the quest system(ummmmm no)
yes, have you even really tried to play the game?
scenarios(same old bg's) no, by far
keep sieging(isn't this instanced?)
no they aren't you obviously havent even played the game AT ALL,
skirmish RvR(only remotely fun if you're on a high pop. server)
no, i play on low pop and have a blast capping all the objectives with my strike team while they're trying to figure out where we are
crafting (no really, isn't a blast but you can do it)(the worst crafting i've seen)
it's a bit sparse at the moment but the basic principles are very sound
instanced dungeons (have you found any yet?)(no, but equipment drops are horrible in game anyways)
go play WoW then for your purplaz, my guild made a few runs in altdorf sewers and our capital city leveled shortly after in part due to our efforts - you can keep your purplaz, oh and btw have you seen mt Gunbad yet? oh sorry I forgot you're not actually playing the game because you don't know that keep sieges aren't instanced
guild politics(seems exciting)
yes it is actually. guild alliances are active and meaningful here
realm strategy(coordinated by who? you going to get 30 people to listen lol nope)
oh yes you can - guild alliances and coordination on the level of guilds - we are already doing it on our server
twinking in T1 without breaking the game(fun?)
yes - casual nice fun, i have an alt just for that when I want to do some CS-style incognito casual PvP
AH trading(so) it's here if you want it
tome unlocks...(hard to do if you're RvR like everybody says you should)
who is everybody? the devs certainly aren't
All of those activities are easily accessible and rewarding. I don't really see what's this "siege the keep until you die" notion. It is ridiculous even saying it. Are you sure you're not talking about some other game?
Your remark about keep sieging being instanced reveals you as being a sordid troll who obviously hasn't even played the game.... or made an effort to actually get informed about it. Good bye and good riddance.
LOL you argue like a little 12 year old girl. Just because i have over 700 hours of WOW in 4 years, that makes me a fanboi? Good job on when you have nothing else to say you start calling people names. I am no fanboi and not a troll, and haven't played the game since february. I just started back last week because I don't find anything else exciting. And until something else comes out i'm just going to mess around in there. I'm not even having fun in WOW, but I find it better than WAR. And because I haven't done keep sieging means I haven't played the game?

Yep this is why I quit. The game just got too repetative. I felt board going from city to city going in a straight line doing the quests or PQ or scenarios. Everything was the same just different set up. And the keep at end game may be fun 1 or 2 times, than boooooring. No Replay value.

What the hell MMORPG is it that you guys play where activities are not grind / repetative? ...and specifically what activities do you do that are not repetative?
RvR has to be one of the most replayable activities in any MMORPG to my knowledge. So im really confused as to why you'd criticise it for being repetative. Keep siege at end game boring? Is that the exerience you've had of T4 sieges? Or are you guessing?
I'm criticizing it for being repetative because i think it is. Just like you think it's not. So that's why I am. To your knowledge? lol ok I'm saying sieging WILL GET boring. How many times do you really think you can do it? MMORPG's are supposed to keep you entertained this one won't after a while. So yes same old boring MMORPG's that everybody is bringing out. Nothing new same map in top right corner, same spells at the bottom, press these same buttons for this. All MMORPG's are the same just different ones use different things from each one. Nothing new in this game.

Sounds great in theory except that
1. RvR is totally about numbers. Tactics won't help you win when you are vastly outnumbered, and there is no time/need for tactics when you are steamrolling. The vast majority of RvR battles are so lopsided that nobody even bothers with 'tactics'. On the rare occasion that you do end up with an even match, by the time you do realize tactics could help, things are so chaotic that it's hard to put anything into action... it's like trying to 'outflank' your opponent after all your troops are already in a big cluster in the middle of the field.
2. Scenarios are so small and fast that again.. simply 'zerging' is the best tactic.
You can theorize all you want, but if you actually played the game you'd see the majority of battles/scenarios require no tactics, which is why nobody bothers with them. It doesn't help that the chat system is terrible.
Yep Exactely. The very first rvr i got into was the biggest was prob a good 30 on 30. It was pretty worthless. You couldn't communicate with everybody. So to get your team to do an all out attack or something was worthless. You had random tanks who thought they'd go in and try and take out a low level guy so he can get some renown, he would die, his team would watch. And kept happening. No side wanted to make any moves, because you can't. Nobody wants to listen to one person and say ok on my mark lets all charge in. Nope no way of communicating that. So tactics? Where exactely are those? If there were guild battles like in Guild Wars it would work, but not in RvR.
