Bring back 8v8

Please bring back 8v8. Why it was ever taken out is beyond me because on primal it's average wait time was 5mins if not shorter but hey good thing they added a 4v4 ranked that's completely dead. On another note even people could learn roles easier than let's say ANOTHER dead 4v4 mode

There wasn't really much learning going on in 8v8 though since it plays MUCH different thank ranked, to be fair.

But yeah, it was fun to go in and farm solo kills as bar---oh...wait? This isn't 3.x anymore.

I'd rather Frontline get revived somehow as the casual PvP mode of choice to be honest.

I liked 8v8 a lot too. It was fun to be able to feast with my more casual pvp friends. I'd like to see it back.

i don't see myself or anyone else learning jack in frontlines. lol 8v8 was supposed to be the casual "feast".

I think I'd like a 16 v 16 Feast just for more chaos, more people getting KOed out of nowhere. No balance, just messy fun.

Dubious supply kits that explode and put vulnerability debuff on nearby people. Laser beams. Snakes.

Or 8 v 8 v 8 v 8 battle royale, four teams. Just drop a new mount on Big Feast and we will keep it alive (for a little while.)

I never said there was. The ONLY place to learn how to ranked is in ranked, or a 4v4 training queue. Me saying that was in response to the OP who explicitly stated that people could use 8v8 to learn roles.

There still was a lot of 8v8 in 4.0 which yea it was harder to kill but at least you don't run for 5 mins to go hit ice or and objective. Nothing but pvp in 8v8 and it's never going teach anyone how to ranked but at least like I said it's pure pvp, less toxicity cause face it who cares it's 8v8 no ranks matter it's just an arena style.

Or even a lone wolf mode 1v1v1v1 or even 2v2v2v2 dreams tho lol a/e don't care what you want or like lol

I could even deal with front lines if it was always 24 because who learns anything from 72

I think that a 1v1v1v1 would be awesome. 2v2s or 2v2v2v2 would be great as well.

Have like king of the hill control the area type fight where you have to hold a zone without dying for so long

I liked 8vs8 in the old pvp eventhough it was most of the time some clusterfuck, but with the current skills it is not so much a good choice even. Some classes like drg/mch will have insane aoe burst damage(most other dps won't have the ability to aoe), while healers don't have aoe heals to compensate. This will be very unbalanced even though it's just a fun mode. Well, that is the overall problem with this PvP, it has not enough depth so that you could adjust your gameplay depending on the modes. It is somewhat balanced for feast 4vs4, doesn't mean that it is very entertaining to play. The boundaries or limits of what is possible are very small, there is not much room for dynamic/suprising elements.

I think the biggest thing that was going on in primal in 8v8 you would see teams with 4 healers but still doesn't necessarily mean they win since the can't get kills. I can't really say any whm and Astro composition isn't broken

But in the same breath I have seen a party in 8v8 with 4 healers but still it's the same thing as front lines just no objectives which I'm trying to stress

We can't even fill 4v4 lol. Atm no reason to play training when it's easier to get games in ranked to farm your tomes.

Ridiculous decision, I want to learn other roles atm. Problem is I'm 2161 on Chaos atm, which means I am probably safe top 100 for rewards. Training doesn't pop, I could practice on ladder since my ratings no longer matters since only highest is used on ranks, but how is that fair on anyone still trying to push? Poor design.

That's what I mean tho 8v8 is way better to jump in and start fighting not just running for ice then maybe get a chance to pvp

I want to see the return of 8v8 FUN MODE as well. I support the return of 8v8!

Also, I was one of the people that suggested the creation of a 4v4 Training Mode. But I didn't think SE would get rid of 8v8 as a result. In other words, my bad. :(

I mean I thought it would be common sense to keep both just saying tho lol

Common sense? Does SE even know what that means?

Lmao just wait till 4.3 comes out it will show the common sense they have, it's almost like the pvp team doesn't even play the game
