New Frontlines

[Isala]

I think it's just the name it'll have... Fields of Glory is the location, like Carteneau Flats or Seal Rock, while Shatter is the mode name... Shatter is an odd one though, I was expecting Siege next... They're definitely being somewhat predictable with the names though (Secure, Slaughter, Seize, Shatter. The Fold, The Feast).

Hmmm. Siege. Wonder if it'll be similar to say... WoW's Strand of the Ancients, just with Magitek Armors instead of tanks?

There was some old concept art from pre-2.0 for PvP that had an army outside a large fort with siege weapons, I've always figured Frontlines would eventually see something like that, and Siege seems the obvious name given their naming pattern. I'll see if I can find it...

EDIT: There we go.

I always wanted Frontlines to be more open world... Sigh... Something like Diadem gives me a bit of hope, it's a large zone that can accommodate a lot of people, make it cross server and set up three Grand Company camps, along with outposts and objectives to hold... Could be interesting, you just go in and try to help your Grand Company maintain its dominance in the zone, rather than going into an instance and it ending with a victory/defeat... Makes more sense for Gatherers too, Diadem is kinda iffy on that (Diadem is kinda iffy in general), but needing resources to construct siege weapons, so you go out to gather them in a PvP area? That could be very fun... Either as a Gatherer, or defending them, or hunting them down to deny other Grand Companies their resources...
