Blizzard why insist on having cross-realm BGs?

I hope this plea somehow reaches/gets Blizzard’s attention.

Since you insisted on having cross-realm BGs, which was never part of the Vanilla experience, why can’t you also, do us the courtesy to, adopt the “system” where if you queue as a premade group you will fight a premade group. There is simply no fun to be had when all you do, when solo-queue, get you paired against premades.

You say you don’t want players to “ruin” other players’ gaming experience, and yet this is exactly what premades do.

It was shortly before the Patch for Pre TBC that made % chance to Stat rating iirc.

Because they aren’t queuing as a premade group. about 30 to 40 individuals just Q at the same time.

Try to see over your own nose and maybe guess why it came to this and that you are part off !

Also hat this ruined the game for them also for weeks !

Do you actually read what was written? I never spoke about AV, nor did I mention WSG directly but that is what I’m referring to, lol.

What does the conversion from %-based stats to rating-based stats (Itemization) have to do with anything.

Right back at you…

That the cross realm battle group Bgs came BEFORE the pre TBC Patch. Due to this we had cross realm BGs in Vanilla !

Yet, the same names keep popping up in the prominent premades (i.e. similar or almost identical constellations), such coincidence right? Of course… :roll_eyes:

Drop the bullsh*t already, we can observe it on discord AND ingame as well.

Government also calls it capitalism while subsidies are a thing.

Only because it gets called this way does not mean its is really that. Also how a word can get used for other things.

You should apply as spin-doctor in politics. :smile:

Im not that correpted, yet.

But who knows, it may be the best retirement plan.

Never had this size of a matchmaking pool in vanilla though. Both the realm population caps & the battlegroups themselves were significantly smaller than what we have now.

Just sayin’.

On Bloodlust im not to sure, even in late vanilla. But I dont play classic so i only have vanilla and cant compare it to the current size for my view.

I am sure.

Well it was Bloodlust (Blutdurst) in german.

Im in a hassle time wise now and need to go and didnt find the Number for Classic currently, only the old battle grps on a first glance.

So cant do a comparison now. But you maybe enlighten me as i come back.

Pretty sure this answers what you’re looking for, in terms of comparison:

Let me know when you find a battlegroup from back then that matches the overall size of the matchmaking pool as it is now. (You won’t find one.)

Are you for real?
He’s not saying they aren’t an organized group of people, he’s saying they are queueing at the same time and therefore technically not a premade, so there’s no way for the game to tell the difference and match them with other “premades”.

:roll_eyes:
They gather in specific / allocated discord channels with ~40 specific ppl to build certain setups, that is pre-made / premade enough per definitionem.

Holy sheet, what point are you even trying to make?

That you and your fellow trolls are lying / being hypocritical about the nature and makeup of those groups (i.e. premades), for whatever reason lol.

Which is by the way an european player exclusive thing, in the us forums the alliance has the guts to be honest about this. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

No I’m not, and neither was he. You’ve managed to completely miss the whole point of the discussion.
Hear me out again: yes, premades exist. Literally nobody is arguing otherwise. But no, the game can’t tell a premade from a pug, because they are queueing individually, so what OP suggested (matching premades with premades) would be either impossible or very unreliable.

Actually many are arguing against it in previous threads, with some very lame sophistry.

^ this part is actually possible to handle from a systems PoV. It’s just that they haven’t properly dealt with it, nor even acknowledged it is a thing yet.

Blizzard have actually never acknowledged premades surpassing their artificial limitations on premades to have ever been a thing.
