    We must not have been playing the same Rival Wings games if you use them as an example that 2 teams gameplay is better.

    At least 9 games out of 10 are complete stomps because one team is clearly stronger. Comebacks very rarely happen. I see no reason to believe Frontlines comebacks would happen more often if there were just 2 teams, battle high or no.

    I've seen a lot more games get turned around in Frontlines due to the other two teams working together against the lead. Granted, you get your fair share of 2nd place focusing 3rd place and letting 1st place easily win, but the concept itself allows you to come back when played right.

    I wonder why the 2 team mode in XIV is such a complete s*** stomp most of the time compared to WoW battlegrounds, or other games.

    I dont know where you get the idea of WoW battlegrounds is not one side stomp, that game is the worst culprit.

    For real! WoW battlegrounds are so predictable. You can tell who's going to win from whoever gets the first cap in Warsong Gulch, whoever controls mid first in Eye of the Storm/Temple of Kotmogu, or whoever gets first 3 cap in Arathi Basin. It's the reason why people will /afk and spam "let them win" whenever the enemy team gets a slight lead.

    Last I played WoW, Alliance's strategy in all the 40-man BGs was to run to the side to give Horde a clear path to victory, lose as fast as possible, then queue again.
    In smaller BGs you'd find occasional people who genuinely tried, but there was a prevalent defeatist attitude thete too, mostly.

    One faction was simply expected to always win, and people started playing into it.
