I know most of my friends who read this blog don’t play World of Warcraft. However, many of them used to join me playing various First-Person shooters playing Capture The Flag (CTF) and I thought they’d get a kick out of knowing that WoW has CTF in an “instance” called Warsong Gulch. I’ve been concentrating on levelling up my main character rather than trying everything out, but after trying WSG out last night I realized what I was missing.
I jumped into a public game after only about an 8 minute wait while the server found enough people who wanted to play. I ended up doing really well. I came in second place with 50 Honorable Kills and only two deaths. I assisted on two flag captures by putting down my frost traps to slow people chasing the runner (and then shooting them down with my bow). It was a lot of fun, and I think I’ll try it again.
wait til you get a chance to play Alterac Valley. It’s almost got the massive battlefield feel of tribes. The battlegrounds have been one of my favorite things to do aside from instancing. The honor system needs some serious tweaking though.
