OK, so me and my army are, let's say out for a little stroll through the woods. In a clearing we see something. "Look Captain, what's that over there" "My my, looks like a Battle Keep and we just happen to be around this neck of the woods". "Wadda ya think boys, should we take her down??" "No Captain we can't, we have to leave it alone so some big ass guild that mimigamed there way to the top of the leader board can have first crack at it!" "WTF is that you say? There ain't no-one here, why the hell can we not just run on over there and claim it as ours? Hell let the next guild that finds it try to take it away from us if they wanna try!' What kind of crap is that men? We can't just go take something we come across first because of something called ORGANIZED LEADER PVP BOARD. Screw that shit, I MA TAKIN IT!!!!"

Forum Poll

Any other way then yes is so going to be a grind for the biggest guilds leaving you smaller guilds in the cold IMO.

I would have to say NO because of the timers in place.. Think about it, would you really want tiny guilds with 5 lvl 20's taking up a 1 or 2 time a week chance at taking over that BK??? I sure as shit wouldnt... Now if there were other requirements in place to ensure that would NOT happen..I.e. Challenging guild must have 40 lvl 80's present to start BK invasion, then it would be a different story. I dont think Funcom is stupid, and no games launch is perfect, much less a MMOG's launch, I think Funcom will do what is right for the game, maybe not at launch but eventually.. Hopefully it wont take as long as it took WOW to get BG ingame!!

Lucky you clearly haven't got a clue what your talking about. No need to make an entire thread to show this to the world is there?

Maybe if you had a CLUE what you were talking about.. people wouldn't be laughing at you.

Damn, only you laughing bud. Just because I do not wanna conform to what someone else things is a good idea that makes me not know what I am talking about? I am talking about anyone at anytime taking a Keep. You go to bed at night and it is yours. Come home from work and damn the Keep belongs to someone else and as you get there, 4 guilds are ALL fighting for it. You join your guild in the battle and see if you have what it takes. But it is true Fion, you just go with the popular opinion instead of going with your imagination and what would be a hellva fun fightin time. Besides, it's PVP not Mario Cart my little one.. :)

After all is said and done, a lot more will be said than done.

This is why Shadowbane was popular for 5 minutes then large guilds killed the game off pretty much. Average joe guild built up, spend the time, woke up ---  gone. How many times you think you can go thru until you get pissed off with the game.

This is why for me this game has more meaning than say Warhammer,  simply because you are involved in building the cities up, Your time, Your resources nothing is ever given to you, nor laying around conveniently waiting to be occupied.

They took feedback from alot of people who played and quit shadowbane, the devs themselves were players too. Number one gripe is the fact that keeps were attackable 24/7. There have been lots of polls on the official forums too over the years. Its not a decision that was taken lightly and one that took alot of aspect from many people into consideration.

Keeps can also be attacked "for softening up" purposes before the actual large scale fighting begins too.

when a player logs off for the night nobody is left..the keep is 100% empty...a line has to be there for Real life versus Game life...period

if it was your way everyone just raid at off times and there would be zero challenge and keeps changing hands daily....how many keeps/castles/forts you know in any history or roleplaying book novel or moive had something like that change hands so often? Mr. Roleplay?

exactly none.....

SCIENCE PROVES CAPS LOCK CAN CURE CANCER.

Well, I put "HELL I JUST WANNA KILL EVERYTHING!" because it is the only one with all caps, therefore making it the most important option.

But in reality I would vote "Yes". I think it could be nice that a small guild should get a chance to take a battle keep if they are good enough, it should d
