maybe because people leaving game premades become a weenie? 10 years ago you could meet premade once a night but nowadays 3-4 times - easy. and lets separate friendship/people like pandora its two big differences
Hmm.
I actually always assumed this was the case (5+ man premades being disallowed in BGs) because of the reason I listed above, but having checked Google for about three minutes I really have not found anything other than some link from 2012 on MMO Champion where some blue named Vaneras discouraged AV Enabler.
But otherwise you are correct, I am unable to find anything backing my statement about large premades being disallowed or Blizzard even expressing themselves on that matter.
I guess that statement was wrong then.
If there are this many premades, there’s obviously a demand for organized mass PvP.
They could have conquered rating bg but to me they demand only wins whatever it take
Once a night? Sorry but 100% sure you never played in Wotlk, Cata or even MOP.
We had both sides FILLED with premades mass farming honor kills for the 250k Honor kill title.
Alliance side had to be careful with two options.
If you had German Horde then you would need to rush them to force them to stop defending so we could farm them at the graveyard which was tricky because back then german horde was strong as hell (more strong as premade)
Russian Horde you would just wait for them to cap SH Graveyard and bunker then just rush them and farm at the graveyard.
So no there wasn’t just 1 premade per night, There was two addons created in Wotlk, Cata and MOP to enable Premades to form 24/7
AV Enabler Addon (WOTLK) and Oqueue Addon (for cata + MoP)
Show me where the rated 40v40 is
Dont dream about rated 40s, because develpers know it will spin boosting fest to even further scale. Unrated but premade 40s is the way.
Random BGs are a joke and you have to be somewhat masochistic to play them more than needed to get some entry arena gear or get some achivements.
It’s a complete balance mess, either it swings in your favour or you get stomped. Horrible content really.
I would complain about premades but honestly I don’t play them enough to care.
The only reason I’m not a fan of premades is that it puts off casual pvp players trying it out for the first time which = less players getting into pvp which = less attention given to pvp health and balancing by Blizzard because only small % of population are playing it.
I vote for there to be casual battlegrounds that are new player friendly, we desperately need fresh blood into the game, enough of this gatekeeping.
Bgs used to be fun, people joiner just to spend some fun times.
Now they rather fish or something xD
On the other hand, it also makes people enjoy battlegrounds who did not like the chaos of randoms. While there’s a vocal minority on the forums speaking out against premades, there’s a huge amount of players in every bg that is happy to finally not lose, and that actually enjoy organized PvP.
i didnt mention 40 because its a pure trash
so you think when nobody wanna play small rbg they should do this?
rated 10v10? but no? dont wanna busting a hump wanna 90+% winratio
We want organized 40v40. Show me where to do that.
and we want no see your kinky playstyle do you think thats a contradiction?
You’re the one that says we should go somewhere else, then tell me where we can go. Because right now EBGs are the only place where you can have organized PvP with more than 10 people.
You could, as anyone else, just look through some of the threads about that topic and easily find blue posts about Blizzard stopping premades in Classic BC and Blizzard banning addons that allowed people to queue as groups > 5.
But I guess that’s a bit much to expect, isn’t it?
Why? You wouldn’t play it anyway, because you don’t even play normal RBG.
You could try Wargames. That’s what they are for.
Southshore vs. Tarren Mill 163 played 162 wins organazed? elimination with no chance of resistance
That’s because it’s not ebgs.
Too much effort organizing, especially if you can just grab a few groups and queue up in the current system. It doesn’t give honor/hk rewards either.
Yeah, free honor and hk. Have had a few good matches, but it’s full of randoms that hope others will carry them, and those people aren’t good opponents. It’s not my fault they are bad. They queued hoping to get free rewards, and instead they became the free rewards
