This is a suggestion for the distant future but I'll just lay it here and see what people think.
Right now we're limited to a battle between 2 teams. But what if we had more than 2?
Think of a battle between 3 or even 4 opposing sides. Think of the possibilities.
It could be a slaughter when 2 of them combine against the others.
It could be a game of minds watching as 2 other forces destroy each other and leave everything to you.
I would personally enjoy this very much. |

I get the feeling that you'll see this quite a bit in null-sec next year. I'm not sure how you'd be able to balance it in FW battles, though. |

All of the best balanced MMOs (except WOW - great or not is subjective but it has a huge following), have a 3 way system; Planetside, DAoC, etc.
Its stops games from being one sided, I'm 100% in favor of three way maps... two attackers - one defender, objective holds... it would also make it more difficult to spawn camp on your oppositions area if there are two.
..but it would require bigger maps (in my opinion) |

I don't think this would be an option with the new war dec system they put into Eve. More than likely, a 'third group' will be allies hired by one side or the other and just join one side of the battle. |

- "Mors Certa, Hora Incerta" (Death is certain, its hour is uncertain) -- Deathmatch Survival mode with 3 teams (6 vs 6 vs 6). Every time one of the teams are eliminated the remaining 2 teams get a boost to their clone reserves & a new team is able to drop into the fray. If no new team drops within the time limit, drones are released instead.
Was one of the Arena matches I proposed in this thread.

The maps we can get are up to 5x5 km. I don't think size is a problem.
But yes, a nice threesome mode would be awesome. I don't agree with 2 attackers/1 defender, the defender would be completely overwhelmed, but a three way domination match would be awesome. |

I myself as a nullsec player would love to see this happen though normaly nullsec battle are 2 teamed i want to see how far we can push the system after we got 1000 man eve fights lets get dust up to 100man fights. And ofcoarse in smaller battles there could be 3 way or 4 way mabey whether its actually a fight betwen three opposing alliances (rare) or some merc corp looking for raging and laughing so hires there dust boys to join the fray ( deffiantly more comon) |

I would think that High Sec would/could have up to 10 different corps fighting for control... |

MIND. BLOWN. O_O! Just think; a resource needed for the mass production of remote mines is being fought over by four diffent coporations as their top dollar attracts some of the best, and worst, that DUST has to offer clashing for its control. That is the stuff that EVE history is made of. Hats off sir. We need this at launch. |
