Teams do encourage people to work toghether in PvE on order to get to the more high end pvp. FFA doesnt really it encourages people to solo and twink alts to pvp. Or pvp at max level in one or two big guilds. Teams allows people sometimes a modicome of safety in order to stay motivated in the game.
Yeah the die hard red Zeckers gonna scream BLUEBIE at anyone who likes teams. But its not once your 60, its as red as any other server but it does work out so that its more blue 1-50. Which is what will give the box population.
Hopefully. Or at least thats the logic.
I'm not going to deny the experience the OP has. But I blame what they saw, not on teams but on gaming/powergaming/EQ in general. Its not a very RP focus'd game. Teams helps a bit there too, but its never going to be able to force people to get immersed.
