This whole thing where the zone is removed from the game by making it inaccessible to everyone that's not in the siege is so INSANELY stupid. Just keep the normal zone, but move the actual siege battles off to a different server entirely since it's already being instanced. It's such a no-brainer.

This isn't an option available as we don't have a server instancing system where can just copy an area (because people would want to use their keep) and put it into an instance. Making tech like that would take a considerable amount of time.

Kicking players out of the zone who aren't part of the handshake eliminates the possibility of a small guild swooping in at the last moment and capturing the keep for themselves.

The handshakes also prevent mara...

You should both be able to post now.  Thanks for letting me know! 

I'm keeping this post on topic, and removing threads that aren't about the design doc presented.   If you want to have a discussion outside this topic feel free to on the forums or discord.

You seriously need to stop allowing players to faction change mid-fight, they do it through guild changing.

Make it so you cant change faction in an FVF campaign or at the least put on a 24 hour cooldown on leaving a guild etc. 

Do something.....

If this is still happening after us implementing ...

Summary

We have a social issue caused by performance-driven server population caps on the zones.  When a large defending or attacking alliance wants to lock out the competition for a siege event, defending players will log into the server hours ahead of the event and “lockout” all other players by flooding the zone with their team.  Worse, the fear of this happening forces other alliances to do the same thing, just to keep it from happening to them -- resulting in uninteresting gameplay sessions with no action on either side, waiting for siege windows to open, then close.

The proposal in this document is to combine the current siege scheduling system with a zone reservation and handshake sieges concept, allowing these 2 teams within a zone for the period that there is an active siege in that zone. This new siege model becomes an option in the Siege Schedule for a particular campaign, which means Dregs can use ei...
