    Global Announcement for Sieges Please!
    Global announcement for Volge Sieges beginning 1 to 5 min prior or even at the time they begin. I am really tired of looking at my map every 2 min to check for them and still wind up missing the beginning of them 3/4 of the time anyway. I made this suggestion on the new voteable suggestion thread, please log into it and vote, ty!:D

    Clans are good for this. If your clan is relatively active, just suggest that folks immediately tell everyone when a siege begins. That also allows coordinating of fast travel to whomever gets there first. Third World Tactics has been doing it that way, and it has worked pretty well.

    Yeah, but Arkfalls are always going on. Sieges are only like once an hour right? Give us one of those warning horn sound effects when a Siege is about to start haha.

    This does help but you know what would be better....if we could actually fast travel to clan members like friends. Hate having to go to gamertag just to join clanmate that needs help.

    100% agree, but something more useful then this: they manage to stabilize their servers so that players don't time out every 3mins.

    Being able to get in a friend or clanmate's vehicle without having to be in a group with them would also be nice.

    I havnt had a problem but then again I can't really talk much I've been getting a lot of help from the clan lol we normaly just have 5-10 guys at any given time standing at all the siege points so we just fast travel to any given one at any given time it cuts back on a lot of the hastle

    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 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.
