Season 3 is less fun in every way than Season 2

My friends and I are enjoying the S3 systems much less than the S2 ones. I don't want to be negative but it feels like the player experience on Eden is worse across the board and I feel much of this sentiment echoed from other players in game. It's disappointing because we were all excited to play S3 but now I can't say there's much excitement to log in and many want to play another game.
The new systems/quests greatly reduce the ability to find fun smallscale pvp action that was previously present. The plat dailies encourage lazy 8+man pickup groups to cruise around NF(gobbling up any smaller groups for RP). Groups of 4+ get ported right on top of duos and trios from Charon, feeding them RP. If your shitty trio manages to beat that 4 or 5man group, they will port back instantly from their town with Charon too, it only benefits the large group.
Sadly I don't see any change coming as most of these new playstyles are emergent from the core mechanics introduced for the frontiers in s3. Bringing back KotH would give me and my friends something to do, but if I'm being honest I don't think we'd log in this game anymore just to do KotH if our only other options are zerging.
Just my opinion and feedback, thank you for all the work on the server and I hope everyone else is enjoying S3 much more than me and my friends!
