Beta wars.

We as a collective think a fun addition to these betas would be specialty titles for those who actually partake and perform throughout it. Similar to let’s say war elite but obviously not that. We feel that “master beta” would be a fun unique title to have. Just our .02¢ on making a fun little perk.

Our hard work as an alliance has gotten us #1 in the beta, we learned,analyze these nodes to the best of our abilities, especially as a big noob as i am, anything can happen...

Smh. What beta is this for? I wasn’t aware there wasn’t one going on
I would also like to add that contrary to the alliance name... we are being quite serious about this.
And honestly, they've busted their butts in the beta. The title would be awesome and hilarious. Even if it was only for April 1, they'd forever be legends.
Also brings up a few ideas. Thru the beta, these guys have been able to put together a team of friends from different alliances... People they wouldn't normally get to play alongside in a competitive way. That's a really cool aspect of the beta.
Added to that, nothing they do in beta wars effects their alliance in any way. They're still playing aq at their home allis, still doing alliance events.
I still think that war being separated from alliances completely would be a very fun move with a lot of potential. These new nodes are extremely challenging and will further the stresses put on alliances. That makes it harder to stay together over the long haul. There are a lot of factors that make alliances fall apart... But performance issues, difficulty in recruiting, and simple stress of the season are at the top of the list.
If wars were a side game, it would alleviate all of that... And from what this group shows, could heighten the competitiveness and fun. Plus, with team-based competitive content that's outside of the alliance structure.. Kabam would have more ability to change things up, add some difficulty or creativity that wouldn't have such a huge impact on alliances
We brought chunky into our beta chat and played 20 questions. There was a lot of insight as to certain aspects of the game and what we still enjoy about it and what we put up with because we have to.. the war focus/AQ focus divide is growing more every week and dividing the community causing retirements of long time veterans.
With things like act 6 just coming out and variant it gave the top something to keep ourselves occupied for a short time but a lot of us railed it out and are bored again. Splitting war and AQ would give people the means to cater both to what they want and coordinate both with friends they want to play with and ideal time zones.
Cob island currently has a vacancy if anyone would like to apply for the position.
We fought hard and together we overcame alot of the tough/new nodes.
Its an amazing experience that i am playing with 29 other people that i know...but in the main game we are all from different alliances and have different goals.. all each possesing a certain strength in allaince war.
But in the beta, we had 1 Goal...
To be the best alliance in the first ever alliance war beta test

They're fun because they get a great challenge, get to play with others that they usually wouldn't, and it doesn't effect their alliance or its goals in the least.
Cobs described it something like full scale dungeon wars. Which is pretty dead on.
You can even cut it back to teams of 10 players to make it more lightweight if you wanted. Toss 10 teams into a round robin dungeon war scenario and let em fight it out. Teams get grouped by war rating (here's another example of where individual player war rating would shine) or prestige. Top team from each of these groupings gets a shiny new master-style title... Kings of the Battlerealm maybe.
If you wanted to take it a step further, it could easily translate into the bracketed playoff system many have talked about. Maybe I just have March Madness (I do... And war eagle, by the way), but "survive and advance" has a lot of potential.
It’s with a sad and heavy heart our little merry band of misfits is being led to slaughter. It was a good run fellas. Long live cob island!!
