I know the current setup is 8 players but I am curious if there will be a 12 player match where all 3 legacies are battling it out in a three way fight or 4v4v4. Would be cool to see all three factions going at it in a larger scale battle alongside the more personal 4 v 4 matches we currently have.

It COULD work...but at the same time, it might be hard to work out right. It seems like the way they have it set up, there will be a defending team and an attacking team.
What might be cool is if you could have a setup where, say if the Knights were the defending team, they had to fight off both the Samurai and the Vikings who were teamed up, but they got some sort of boost, extra defenses or something to make up for it. If balanced well, that could be fun.

Exactly what I was thinking!
I would LOVE to see a full-out battle of the factions... sort of a "king of the hill" if you would.
I was disappointed to see very little of the Viking gameplay in both vids.
Regardless of the different types of gameplay they give us - I'm freaking pumped to get this game!
Take my money! What's the release date!?

I also would really enjoy seeing an all out faction battle of 4v4v4, but as KailLokeson said it would be difficult to add with the current multiplayer game mode of "Dominion". (what's to stop one faction being bullied by the two others?) However, we do know that they will have more game modes when they fully release the game and I really do hope they have an all out 4v4v4 brawl but it will most likely need its own game mode other than "Dominion". Maybe Im speaking the obvious idk... and if any devs are reading this thank you for delivering the game I have been waiting my whole life to play!

Would like a lone wolf option .
I player can enter a battle , an effect the game by opening gates etc for more reinforcements etc .
The lone wolf can't win the match , so if a team beats the last player in the opposite team they get full points and only bonus points for killing the lone wolf .
Not sure about the balancing issues but would be a cool idea , for people who don't want to be part of a team

Deadshot. suggested it be a "King of the Hill" sort of mode, and I think they nailed it. Like, literally. There's a stone circle at the top of a hill that all three factions are trying to claim. There isn't a need to worry about one side being bullied by the others, because that's kind of the nature of the mode---the one in the circle is constantly being bombarded by the others---and even if the two sides trying to claim the circle from the third actually team up (and only kill members of the leading faction), the moment that faction is dealt with, the alliance would immediately dissolve.Originally Posted by slicknick99 Go to original post
And you could always substitute a lone castle tower, military encampment, pagoda, or whatever for the actual capture point. Or not have it be on a hill. Put it in a valley, or up against a cliff face.

great stuff MisterWillow. My only worry with the "King of the Hill" game mode is the repetitive nature of trying to overtake one single spot may have a lack of variety throughout the match. Im not against the idea I actually think its really great, Im just hoping if this game mode is implemented that the "stone circle"/ capture point you speak of moves around on the map throughout the battle. Moving the battles through multiple zones and each time fighting to accomplish a specific objective that would benefit your team.
