Since pvp queues aren't the greatest in the game, and pvp in general wasn't big in the last FF. Knowing what the current rewards are. Would you participate in the pvp actively if the myth part of the reward for each 30 min 24v24v24 was comparable to 30 minutes of bray speed running?
Absolutely.
Maybe. I'm not big on pvp, but I'd like to try. :D See how it feels and if I like it I keep going.
I'm not big on PVP but I have hyped Frontlines and I do have to say that I am pretty excited about it. It's going to be fun I think.
And it's a step toward "conquest" systems in FFXI. Except at a faster pace and a more direct approach than a passive.
4v4 pvp is boring but wild pvp like forntlines is a different world, with tomes as rewards i'll do more forntlines than dungeons.
I know it wouldn't really work but I'd love a PvP mode similar to GW2 RvRvR . You can just jump in for a few minutes or a few hours and just have fun. I think any kind of timed events will have issues (like people leaving early if your team is losing etc.).
I think I'd try it. Im not big on arena style pvp that we already have, and I know plenty of people who wanted to pvp but know that pretty much everyone just win-trades atm so it's not worth it. I think Frontlines will be much more popular than wolves den, at least for a while.
It'll be a large scale chaotic place of nothing but death and rage QQ. Of course I'm gonna participate.
I don't think it'll be comparable to 30min of Bray SR though. I mean you're apparently going to get more than just Myth tomes, as there's also pvp exp/marks and Soldiery tomes rewarded.
It really depends on several things. First and foremost being of course it's implementation. But also if it becomes a way to earn tomestones I'd be more inclined to spend some time doing it, if for no other reason than to break up the monotony of dungeon runs. I'm sure people would argue against pve progression in pvp but really getting 72 people together for one of these things is going to be challenging without upping the rewards a bit.
I'd also be more inclined to participate if the rewards and consequences were more apparent outside of the content and outside of a personal gain or loss. If winning helps my nation in some tangible way I'd be more inclined to participate. Too many rewards in this game happen in a personal vacuum. I'd like a reason to be proud of the grand company I'm part of.
