yeah, i guess the zones will still be there, but they'll just have no "end zone". imagine pushing all the way to the end of Alterac Valley to find Captain Placeholder with a "sorry, check back in a few months" gossip panel.
while my language selection is harsh, i'm just saying what they won't. if the zones weren't dull and boring, they'd be in the game still. they apparently got into such a fevered pitch over the two that they DO have that they looked at doing that 4 more times and were like "fuck that. that'd be too much work".
here's my disclaimer that i end up having to put in anything i write about warhammer: I REALLY HOPE THEY GET IT RIGHT, AND IT'S FUN TO PLAY, but when news like this is released, you have to wonder. maybe the two cities they did manage to finish will be so fun that it'll be worth it in the end to wait for. I'm kinda leaning towards everyone doing it once, then saying "this is the big deal? that's it?" at the anitclimax.
the problem with their 'epic RvR' is that it doesn't last. speaking again in terms of wow, say the horde were able to capture ironforge, and the alliance couldn't have it back until they TOOK it back... that would be fucking awesome. but in WAR, after sacking an opposing city, you get some buff or whatever, and the city remains 'sacked' for an unspecified amout of time, then it 'returns' to its owners, so it can be sacked again. sounds kinda pointless; in fact, it actually sounds eerily like a grind.
