No premade would never be a thing. You just can’t prevent it. If you disable group queueing we’ll just countdown queue. If that splits our group we’ll just queue with more or fish for a fresh. Even if you go out of your way and program it so that the game cherry-picks players, so that the same player cannot be teamed with the same players twice in a row, we’d just exponentially increase the number of people queueing to compensate.
Underestimating the lengths we as players and a community can and will go to is why Blizzard stopped being a successful company. Catering to vocal whinos is why we’re playing classic in the first place.
No such thing as “adjustments” from these budget developers, more like “destruction”. Thanks for completely killing the amazing Bg experience I was having prior to your deadly touch. Is it not enough that you made retail a complete joke?.
AV before the “fix” was the biggest joke in classic so far. While there would be better ways to fix the issue, such as giving us the original AV instead of the 1.12 version, the “fix” has improved the overall bg experience.
I feel all Horde players are good for is destroying Classic. Be it by creating an insane faction imbalance, playing cheesy op races, camping, ganking, forcing Blizz to make terrible changes. Just sad.
Surely you must be enjoying this “fix” so far. 1 hour AV ques and out of 10 WSG’s qued, 9 are one-sided premades.
You could have fixed the problem with half empty bgs by grouping people who wants to play with each other. No need to drop bgs if you get everyone in at first try. Even medicore developers would have been able to determine who wanted to be in the same group. And you could have made identification even easier if you added cross server groups. Everyone would have had more fun. Instead you chose to give more honor to the people running around like headless chickens.
Right now you seems more interested in making simple games for people with limited attention span. Your developers were the best and you had great ambtions when wow first launched. What happened with you guys. It seems like you are trying to lose customers.
Just wait for it. Alliance players will eventually reach exalted and rankers are already moving away from AV.
I doubt that…since today the Alliance is preforming better then before. And if they make out good tactics (which will take some time) and get a decent Win Rate, they will stay in AV even if the hit exalted, because as a casual gamer you can gain more Honor out of AV then in the WSG without a Premade Grp.
The only players that made blizzard implement these changes were all the mediocre/bad alliance players going full retard with av premades, which destroyed alliance pugging due to too many dead AV games. Never go full retard.
What happened to the nochanges policy?
This made it even worse again… The premades were made, because it was impossible to win, because pugs don’t listen to any tactics. With those premade AV’s battles were way more balanced and the win-loss rate came much closer to 50%. Ofcourse I realise puggers were even more ducked (yep, even the f word is not allowed here lol) because of premades dropping battles, but again you made it only worse with your change of the game…
Alliance premades were actually correcting the system: they made sure that their team has enough healers and tanks, limited the number of afk-ers and recruited people that actually followed tactics.
All these should have been granted by the system automatically.
Premades were made while 80%+ of all games were won in less than 15 minutes by the alliance.
May i suggest you take your own advice before typing mentally deficient responses like that?
now its 2h Que for horde with 99.9% winrate
Balanced
#somechanges ty brother Blizz
Where?
I have 45min Q
They let the allies on pvp servers get ganked to extinction. They massively changed the rules of pvp several months into ranking. The classes that are good 1 vs 1 are have huge advantage now. We have queues for no other reason than preventing premades.
Alright, that’s problably true, if you want to rank high you will need a premade anyway…
We have queues to make horde happy. Actually alliance’s only purpose in pvp is to make horde players happy, otherwise they start crying and canceling sub.
It’s been 44 minutes this evening
I am a casual player… I just join a premade in tradechat or LFG-channel…
