In the MMO New World, PvP battles play a central role. In a new video, you can see a battle for a fort involving 100 players.
What can be seen in the video? Territorial wars are a central element in the MMO New World by Amazon Game Studios. For your faction, you complete missions to weaken the opposing party. This leads to an epic battle where 100 players fight against each other, to capture a fort.
You can watch how this battle unfolds in the video. There are 50 players on each side; 50 attackers and 50 defenders.
Epic Fort Battles
How does a battle for a fort work? First, it is important to capture three control points, called Rally Points, in the area. The defenders will obviously try to prevent this.
Not until the attackers hold these Rally Points can the assault on the fort’s gate begin. The attackers must destroy the gate to enter the fortress. Here too, the defenders will try to stop this attack.
In the third phase of the battle, the conquest takes place. If the attackers capture the fort, they will gain control over the area.
What resources do the attackers use? The faction that initiates the attack on a fort has access to siege weapons. These include, for example, catapults or medieval cannons.
How can defenders defend themselves? Those who are defending the fort also use larger weapons such as cannons, ballistae, or the Fire Dropper. Of course, it is possible to charge out of the fort and face the attackers in melee combat.
How do you acquire siege weapons? Attackers must buy the weapons with Battle Tokens, which you can earn in the game.
Defenders use their devices free of charge. However, it is necessary to upgrade the weapons. The more powerful they are, the more effectively you can defend the fort.
How long does a siege last? The video indicates that a siege can be completed in about 10 minutes. However, it obviously depends on how well equipped the attackers and defenders are.
