Since I have returned, I haven't seen a single mini game that is BALANCED.
Partnering with a buddy would only create more balance, as opposed to unbalancing it. This way you can ensure a proper class make up for signing up and having at least 2 players focusing a target together to effectively kill a flag carrier or a healer that may be carrying the opposing team.
Do you honestly call the current state of mini's balanced? It's an MMO, it's meant to be played with your friends. IF Funcom doesn't display an annoucement on this within the month, myself and the people I have rejoined with are unsubbing this pos game again, due to the lack of team orientated pvp in mini games.
Not everyone wants to play premades and not everyone has 6 solid players with proper classes to premade with. A Buddy system is a must, I can't stress it enough.
Now please, go back to your Tier 4 raiding.
The sad part is, he is the minority in PVP and Funcom will listen to him over the players that actually care for PVP.
Craig Morrison Butchered this game to oblivion. If only the new Game Developer got off his high horse and selfish desires and actually IMPLEMENTED ideas that players actually want, then players would be happier to play this game, as opposed to being annoyed.
This is most needed thing for AoC nowdays, loads of pvpers lost any motivation playing minigames coz they cant play with friends. Only FC could invent the thing of doing team pvp events alone, so superwise.
For all who qq against this, as mentioned above, its MMO game, so its supposed to give players options to cooperate. If wanna play solo there superalot way better sologames.
Ofc no1 asks for old system while u can sign with 6men group, but option to play with 1 or 2 friends is what should be added asap.

Cripples gonna cripple
Let's have a look at this, shall we?
Advantage? Yes, probably. Playing with your buddy who is on vent with you, or whom you have showered with so much that you pretty much know each other by heart, will probably make you more effective.
Unfair? No. Hacks and exploits are unfair. Being more skilled or more coordinated than your opponent is not. Hell by the same token, why not ask FC to reduce mouse turning speed, so people with keybindings no longer have an unfair advantage over keyboard turners?
More generally, minigames ideally should not be "balanced". They should be "competitive". The team that is better at playing the game should win. Not the team that gets assigned all the pvp 10 soldiers and two healers by a random algorithm.
