Upcoming WOW Battlegrounds - WC3 Style? :D

[Vortex22]

More than that, though, the Blizzard team is kicking around more than a few ideas for new Battlegrounds and future PvP experiences. Current areas under consideration include smaller 5-on-5 fights and some with 60 or even 80 characters on a side. At least one area will duplicate classic FPS deathmatches, one will be designed around a series of open graveyards that can be captured by either side. Once captured, the graveyard can only be used by that side to resurrect its members and the battle is won when one side has no place to re-spawn. Most interesting to long-term Blizzard fans, though, are several Battlegrounds inspired by classic Warcraft III maps. One is a last-ditch defense against wave after wave of computer controlled monsters that attack both sides. Another is a classic map with peons gathering resources. First team to kill all the peons and cut off the supplies to their enemy wins. Further down the road, the team is working on adding vehicles to the game, including massive siege engines like catapults and giant arbalests that players will use to assault fortifications.
