Apparently you didnt get the very old news that we get the PvE version of AV

Blizzard has done nothing to Alterac Valley, it’s exactly how it was 14 years ago in patch 1.12.

And there’s the problem, it’s exactly how it was 14 years ago in patch 1.12 when the players are not.

The players have long theorycrafted out the most efficient way to play Alterac Valley for maximum honor is to win or lose quickly with as little actual PvP as possible.

Warsong Gulch is the same, fast 6-7min 3 caps yield the most honor (especially if you have a favorable queue).

The sad fact is that the most efficient way to PvP is to engage in as little PvP as possible.

you should not be able to kill boss while marshal/warmaster are up. period. not even in naxx gear.

even 1.12.1 rushes involved capping all or all but 1 tower.

We all knew this would be the case when they announced which AV they were giving us, everyone should have made a lot more noise about it when we had the chance.

Blizzard return our glorious old AV and remove this non PvP version!

People made a lot of noise.

There were hundreds of threads, especially in the US and all ignore by Blizzard.

Still faster to kite and nuke down the war masters than wait the 5min it takes to cap each tower.

This is especially true if you’re unlikely to face new warmasters from destroyed friendly bunkers.

Since we aren’t buying ingame pets/mounts Blizzard won’t allocate the resources needed to fix this. We told Blizzard that this isn’t the #nochanges we wanted. We told them this is wrong.
They ignored it, maybe because they don’t have the time, maybe because they didn’t trust us, maybe because they really don’t care about giving us the experience we want if it conflicts with “how easy is it to do”

This alone makes me think they will never do Classic+ or any other “investment” beside the one they already did.

Everyone did make a lot of noise about it, there was a post up in the US forums a few months back running to many pages, where 95% of the people replying were asking for the earlier version of AV.

Blizzard have obviously decided to implement what ‘they’ want rather than what ‘the players’ want……….

Blizzard have taken the easy path to Classic all along, this is just another example of that.
