As someone who enjoys both WoW and FFXIV, I love the new pvp mode they added to FF. However, FFXIV combat feels like crap compared to wow. I also enjoy wows look, feel, classes, lore, world etc. a lot more. FF basically copied the Overwatch push the payload game mode. It would be awesome to see a similar gameplay mode added for WoW. I’m sure I’m in the minority but does anyone else agree?

I know, I thought the same thing. But it’s a pretty fun pvp mode. A push the payload team based mode would be fun for WoW.
WoW has payload battlegrounds. I thought everyone hated Silvershard Mines.
Asks for a new PvP mode, which WoW has notably slacked on, citing another game as inspiration
“How DARE you bring that game up!”
Lol.
Because Silvershard isn’t payloads in anywhere near the same manner, and that should be pretty obvious.
again on our own.

True about bringing up another game
For those who are unfamiliar. Crystalline Conflict is two teams of five. They’re both fighting over control for a Crystal(payload). When one team has players on it and the other doesn’t, they push it towards the other teams base. Once they’re able to push the payload all the way to the other teams base, they win. If they are both on it when time runs out, the game goes into overtime until one team is left on the payload and they have pushed it farther than the other team.
You seem to have missed the entire point of the thread.
Yeah, you definitely missed the entire point of the thread.
What’s with the attitude? I’m not saying I prefer FF. I much prefer WoW. I just enjoy that one aspect of FF. Pretty much solely that one. I would love to have a similar PVP mode added to WoW. I believe it would be a great addition to improve the game.
This also isn’t Drakkaur’s forums either. People are allowed to discuss whatever they want around here. Funny how when other games get brought up, it ends up being people like you that get all riled up.
Woooosh at Mach 5
I don’t really understand the vitriol coming from them either? I’m not certain if Blizz invented the push the payload gameplay type with Overwatch, but they certainly “perfected” it. Or at least made it a notable game mode in a very high profile, fun game. I’m just asking for them to add something like that into this game. FF is merely an example of the gameplay mode.
I do like CC, but FFXIV decided to model their PvP system off LoL, not WoW. They reduce all specs to 6 abilities, they really do just eliminate the “healing” role in favor of support, so healers get complete whiplash doing PvP and wondering why they can only heal twice every 15 seconds and everyone gets “Ultimates”.
It’s not an apples to apples comparison and I’m not sure it’s for the better overall.
Say that to White Mages. That fast LB, plus CC, healing, damage.
Agreed. That’s part of my point. I don’t think FF pvp is better, at all. I just enjoy the “Push the Payload” style of gameplay. Overwatch is successful with it, WoW could be as well. Not the multiple payloads like the mines mode either. I’m referring to a central payload that both teams have to fight over to push. We can forget FF completely, it was just used as an example of the gameplay mode.
I mean, there’s also the fact that nobody’s trying to compare the combat systems. People just want something similar to Crystalline Conflict as a mode, but in WoW.
I was an Astrologian when it first came out.
I know White Mages were stupid OP back then. Wondering if they got slammed by the nerf bat.
