I'm really in to the idea of the faction war and I think its great. My issue is that I am in the samurai faction and can't help but notice that a majority of players are in the Viking faction which leads to them usually winning the faction war I think mostly because of their advantage in population. Having said that my suggestion to help with this is to create a faction war playlist where you can play the same game modes currently offered but you're matched up with a team of the same faction as you are so that way you are actually doing more on the map and also because most of the player base is Viking so if you are a samurai you're very unlikely to be playing with a team of the same faction. For example most of the time when I solo que or even play with friends they are either in the knights or Viking. Vikings are dispraportionatly greater obviously. So if I win and I'm the only one in my fac and there's 2 Vikings on my team I won't be contributing hardly anything to the map and my efforts are actually helping the faction im fighting against becausethey are on my team and winningthe game gives you more troops. Even if I do better in game than the two Viking faction players on my team they will be canceling out my troops on the map almost 2 to 1 assuming that I did better than they did otherwise it would likely be 3 to 1.
If you guys were to add a faction based playlist I strongly believe it will make the faction war much more balanced and also more about how well people do in their matches based on faction instead of whoever has the greatest population in a faction always wins. Thank you
