This got started in another thread, so I pulled it to the appropriate forum to see if this gains interest -

The ONLY exception is COE and its top prizes. Oddly, that is where almost ALL the real PvP is. Oh no, actually it isn't odd at all...

Yes, all the REAL and TRUE PVP. The COE has evolved into the most nasty, cut throat, vengeful, defiant, blood thirsty league in the game. I sat and pondered a bit and wondered what if the rest of DW was played like the COE?? Scary thought isn't it?? lol

The current intercept as well as the SCL allows for PVP, but they can still be soft and nowhere near the level of intensity the COE has. Maybe it is the player base involved in each event and a little bit to do with the high end prizes, but I think there is a little more to it than that.

Now I know having a COE type environment throughout DW would never be allowed or even agreed upon. But it does have merit to expand into it in one way where a lot of the players seem to have the most interest.

There was talk awhile back about the addition of another league in the COE. It mild version of existing format, but I think a different version will perk a lot more interest. A COE 4 League that would be a Death Rally TEAM Event. Each team can have up to 3 players. Any one, two or all three can enter a race. Same point structure as the current COE except the team's point total for the event is the average score of all the players entered for that team.

EXAMPLE of Point Scoring - TEAM A has 3 players entered who finish 1st -20, 5th - 9, 10th - 1 for a total score of 30 points. TEAM B has 3 players entered who finish 2nd - 16, 3rd - 13, 8th - 3 for a total score of 32.

Even though Team A had a player win the race, Team B had a better overall score and has more points. This would also increase the need for players to work as and finish as a TEAM.

Prizes for the event can be based on the current SCL format. Money, Camp Bonuses and even Training Vouchers.

Now adding more leagues with a small player base may not be the best thing, but when adding a league that will get a lot of participation... I think it would be worth it!

EDIT: We could even have random AI teams. Imagine 2 teams going at it when suddenly the AI drives by and starts to engage the bullet party. Now you got more to worry about to get your team safely across the finish line.
