    New Rivals Wings Mode/Map (Suggestion)

    Rival wings has a bit of potential because it is team styled over Free-for-all. However I believe they could be better by just innovating on tried and proven battlegrounds from older games instead of creating something new.

    1. Add a capture the flag mode.
    • Capture flag in center of map, defend flag carrier to base, get points, repeat and win
    • Potentially add new mechs into the mix and there could be a lot of potential fun to be had

    2. Add an escort payload mode
    • Teams take turns escorting a train to the destination for points
    • Again Possibly add mechs and you might have another hit

    The moba styled Rival wings modes aren't cutting it long term. They're are hard to understand for some players and require a lot of coordination. These new ideas for modes might be easier to hop into for quick and easy pvp fun.

    Both of those sound awesome. CTF might some tweaks. For example, probably want to disable Rescue on the carrier, and maybe consider if they can use Shikuchi and stuff. Also maybe want to think about a small Heavy debuff on the carrier to compensate for FFXIV's shoddy lag compensation (or lack thereof). All that aside it could be really cool and I'd love to see it. Payload in particular seems like a natural fit.

    In general I feel like modes that pit just one team versus another are a bit lacking right now and I'd love to see the next PvP product not be a FL map. I know Astrologos was pulled, so maybe some of these ideas will be incorporated into it whenever they bring it back, since I'd assume they are probably working on it.

    Yea I'm not a fan of Frontlines for the Free for all Aspects. I'd really love for Square to expand on Rival Wings. And I completely agree with your added input. Too much mobility would make some classes over powered with the flag.
