How about some good old-fashioned CTF PvP action?

I've been trying to figure out why I just can't seem to get into PvP on NW. I think it's the fact that there's only one thing to do - grind out your Glory/IWD Campaigns by running around and killing people. How about we mix it up a bit by providing different types of PvP engagement?

For those of you, like me, that used to play Halo PC - remember all of the different game types (they weren't called PvP back then but it was player vs. player)?

Capture the Flag - grab the opposing team's flag then try to get back to your base to score. You had to rely on your team's teamwork to get there.

Assault - take your flag to their base to score. Your team had to draw off the opposing team's forces much like an NFL game.

Team King of the Hill - hold the hill at all costs.

Oddball - find the object (in this case a skull) and keep it for the duration. If you die, someone else can pick it up.

I'd play a lot more PvP if we had some of these game types instead of "Let's hold a point or three for 90 minutes. If the other team is really bad, we'll hang out close to their spawn point and zerg them."

Thoughts?
I aim to misbehave

    I will keep saying this till Devs release it out. NW needs a Fort to conquest / defend by guilds. The guild that own the Fort / Castle get special buffs for 1 week till content start again. They released Ice map with free PvP, awesome. Now just need this and game will be complete.

    I'd LOVE to have more PVP modes, domination is all there is for now, for regular domination, for GG and for open world PVP.
    I loved in WoW the alterac valley, 2 big teams fighting eachother in big battles, and depleting points when dieing.

    Please don't push for this. I've played several games that have attempted this. It is always a complete failure, always.

    Let's get what we have fixed first at least.

    I would totally be down for some CTF though, I don't know how it would work though, looking at some class features and abilities this would be a complete mess and it would be a long road to balance it.

    Mod 3 was our update, I don't think we are going to get anything else for a long time if ever.

    Were you playing RO? Because here it was working fine, anyway I don't think massbattles like this could be good for NW because combat system.

    Ragnarok? xD, I loved the WoE, I think it was one of the reason I think I won't find another MMORPG so good as RO, but I would say no to implement that here, just 20v20 and I have 15-20 FPS!, and I know I'm not the only one!, I would prefer CTF, but no 5v5, make it 7v7 or 10v10, that would be nice!.

    This!

    Black Ice Domination hasn't been working, or only working for 3 - 4 hours after a server restart/patch, since the release of Module 3 and is even more broken after the last patch.

    CTF would be insanely cool thing, but the balancing would require a lot of testing and tweaking.

    Shift and tab ability use while carrying the flag?

    definitely they would have to disable both of them to make it work.
