Stake your claim in the Darkspear Islands, a new 15v15 battleground in World of Warcraft: Forever where teams fight to control strategic points, capture the flag, and earn reputation rewards with the Darkspear Raiders or Theramore Expeditionary Force.
So it’s basically Eye of the Storm but set in Azeroth?
Sharks eat you if you fell in water
Ya mon! This battleground be pleasin’ the spirits. But there is still some bad voodoo if Blizzard not be givin’ us an RP-PVP ruleset on launch. Ya feel me, mon?
This is new BG is awesome! It is EotS without the ugly aesthetic. I also enjoy the locations of the pickup buffs.
You guys killed it with the vibes on this one, keep it up!
Ya its EotS, BUT it’s a much better aesthetic and if you get launched into the water you have a chance to live or die from hungry sharks.
I enjoy this bg. Well done. Keep it up.
Yeah uhhh it’s literally just a reskin from a BG released in The Burning Crusade. I’ve been playing the beta, the game is great and I’m looking forward to full release. Wow Forever’s player count will most likely surpass or has already surpassed retail numbers alone in terms of active playing accounts.
But with how much hype there is, millions of OG players returning all you guys can do is just a reskin? We want fresh ideas and new content with that Classic World of Warcraft style we all love to play. Adding in recycled content is fine, it gives us more things to do but all aspects of the game need to be expanded on. So for the PvP side it’s not off to a great start.
Here come the crybabies. We want the game to be held to the standards the playerbase wants.
Again, very excited for release, I’m sure the team has been cooking up a ton of great ideas that we don’t even know about yet. Overall good start.
My brother in Christ… you do NOT want whatever Blizzard thinks is a good idea for a new battleground.
Outside of Capture the Flag and Domination we got…
Strand of the Ancients - a battle ground forcing people to use the horrible vehicle mechanic that was quite literally so bad they removed it from the game never to have to force another person to play it again… and I still got Strand of the Ancients Master for the battle master achievement.
Temple of Kotmogu - dog sh**, not one person who lives on Earth likes this battleground
Seething Shores - Blizzard thinking its player base wanted to play fortnite and wasted the one new battleground we got for the next 8 years on fu****g Fortnightmares. I would rather have a voodoo curse on me where every step I take there are loose Legos in front of me that I have to step on barefoot for eternity than have to play a whole match of seething shore.
Whatever the f*** they made in TWW - No one knows what’s actually going on. No one knows how to win except like 5 people on Earth and they do the objectives while everyone just face smashes mid. Honestly not that bad if you just want Valley of Honor on repeat but still trash.
And i Personally like Silvershard Mines so its safe.
I would rather play WSG and AB or EOTS reskinned 20 times than play any battleground or PVP content theyve tried to make sense then.
Awesome work, looks great!
You are spooked by blizzard possibly creating a new battleground but I bet you would happily go full brain rot and endlessly grind AV as if your life depended on it
Bro, do you see how you are talking, this is what you basically said “Blizzard is so bad at coming up with new types of BGs don’t tell them to make another”. Frail mindset.
They should poll or pitch new ideas/concepts with whatever new content they’re thinking of putting into the game and always listen to our feedback to make a decision.
I mean ok, but where’s the Rated Pvp? RBGs? Arena? Something that has SOME semblance of skill and aspirational content to it?
WE LOVE NEW STUFF! Yay
Absolute trash BG.
Bases are too close to SHARK infested waters, people just camp the edge for flag defense and fear you to your death in the shark water.
Remove the sharks.
This is EOTS but so so much worse.
I preferred the EOTS knockoff into the void over the fear spam into sharks.
hey bilzard, I really hope you brought rep gains up to alterac valley levels. I wouldnt be surprised if you didnt since you cant figure out wtf youre doing for this game in the beta. But just something to think about for your 10 am start times and 6 hour donut breaks
Oh man, I’d love to do this with my RP-PVP guild in my RP-PVP ruleset. Any news on that?
I agree, reskins are valid PvP content because the terrain is new.
A new cart-control map would be great. A new 40 man somewhat like AV would be awesome too.
Temple of Kotmogu is actually my favorite along with Warsong and Arathi. Eye of the Storm in my eyes is the worst one.
Also since I’ve been PVPing a little. I’ve noticed hunters can shoot through the stone pillars on this map. Is this intended? I assume that means you can wand through them also. Maybe even cast?
PLEASE Blizz, consider making all their rewards to be trollish? There are a LOT of NPC troll stuff that is never used for any of our toons and until (or if) Zul’Gurub and Zul’Aman come around, we have almost NO tribal/troll things for our Forever Darkspear to wear. God, I hope someone hears this.
