Global Announcement for Sieges Please!

a little heads-up would be great. i cam farm arkfalls all day, and checking the map every 5 gets old, when im smacking 99'ers, i dont have time to see a siege ive waited an hour for. if they are special enough to only be once an hour, they are special enough for an automated global message.

I'd agree, an announcement or warning prior to the start of a Siege would be nice. I missed the start of two sieges this afternoon while I was cleaning up my inventory after major AF's.

On a side note, it'd also be nice if they'd get the search function working on that Google Moderator thing. I spent twenty minutes looking for the suggestion so I could vote it up.

I made this suggestion on the new voteable suggestion thread, please log into it and vote, ty!:D

I agree 100% with this. When i see a siege and get there, it`s always in an advanced stage,
Only got one from the beggining because i was passing by at the moment.

Even a beep sound from our EGO is fine with me. Is it once an hour? Feels like it is more than that.

Support this suggestion.
Due to the low frequency of Sieges...
- I'm constantly checking the map for them
- Especially during major arkfalls because Siege's always seem to start while a Major Ark is in progress
- Hesitant to start missions / emergencies that take more than 5 minutes
- Won't join Coops
- Don't queue for PvP

I support this suggestion 100% due to fact that map is buggy and won't show them half the time for me: I have to constantly refresh the map to make sure. Plus due to their server structure which is heavily instanced based: if you are near or in the area of the sieges, they will not show unless you go to another instanced part of the map.
