Any hope for PvP? Frontlines gonna be cool or nah?

[Tsolake]

So I've been playing for about a month, and I've gotta say I'm having a blast. The GCD is a little boring, but that's off topic. However, I have to ask about the PvP. I played WoW 5 years for the PvP, but the Crowd Control was too nuts. I recently got the Wolve's Den, and it's pretty simple, and for some reason, I'm actually having a great time in the Wolve's Den. I've never had a match that was terribly boring. I would have no problem leveling from 30-50 in the Den if I didn't have to keep up on gear.

However, I would like more from it.

Is there any hope that SE will add some more PvP oriented abilities? Like snares & roots & etc? Or will they add any new arenas?

I've also been hearing about a new mode called Frontlines. Can anyone explain to me what this will be? Will it be like a castle siege between the 3 factions, or what? I really love everything about this game, and I hope PvP will build more. What do you guys think it will do? Any predictions?

All we know is that it will be an entire area dedicated to large-scale PVP battles between the grand companies. I think more information is supposed to be revealed soon.

I think it will be more fun to me than straight up party battles, especially if they have varied objectives.

Well, I'll trust you as you've helped me with my other 3 threads. Thanks again man, it's a shame that's all we know so far. I'm really looking forward to it.

im hoping for something like the alliance wars in guildwars1
about 24 vs 24 and a bit of a king-of-the-hill vibe to it, that'd get me to waste a few hours
but thinking about the lag with 48 people in one instance is making me sick already, don't have enough faith left in SE to pull it off, so not expecting anything good

Does Mor Dhona lag with 100+ people jammed in next the the booths? I don't even get lag in Behe and Odin anymore. I don't think it'll be a problem. Especially if there's no monsters and the battle is spread out enough that the game doesn't have to render everyone on your screen.

It may not lag for you (or myself), but others that have some constrictions (lower-end PC, slow internet connections, using PS3) may notice some concerns with it. Most of the people on Mor Dhona are just standing around. May get more congested if everyone is starting to use their different abilites around you.
