The Horde Metaslaves that has swarmed Classic TBC forums of late have tried to achieve the idea of same faction BG are the same people who play merc mode in Retail.
In order to prevent this, the community must work together.
Make a post of your own to show your distase of this change as we all know it will further accelerate faction imbalances and destroy the game long term. Many posts on this already. Be active on forums the coming days.
Dont argue with pro metaslaves in their threads. Will just add to their views as the thread will move to the top.
Cancel your sub. You heard me right. Even if you plan on continue to play. Do it. And write a notice to Blizzard that you distase this change.
If we work together perhaps there is a slight chance of them to maybe reconsider the choice of same faction BG.
Lets hope they do the right thing and introduce Free Faction Transfers to all Horde players.
We fight on for the cause of a healthy game longterm.
Same faction BG is like giving candy to a already fat kid. It will give him/her short term happiness but being bad for the long term health. (In this case faction imbalances)
How about letting it play out, and see if it has any impact on faction imbalances?
I have seen no difference in Alliance population on the 2 servers I play on.
Also, do you people realise it works both ways? Threatening to cancel your sub, or actually cancelling your sub because of this change. Well, guess what, horde players also wanted to cancel/threatened to cancel because of hour long queues.
you say this now, but i caught you gloating in Tartangel’s “5 stages of horde” post about “lul just reroll lmao” like everyone else.
you can stop polishing that figurative halo over your head now, ok?
my sub is already cancelt and i will stop playing when bg queues are going to be 20 min or higher. most alliance dont what to reroll but guess what. most horde doesnt want too.
who can judge that?
leaving friends from classic and new ones from tbc behind. losing all progress which was made over the playtime. a fractionchange good be a good thing in my opinion. but who wants to leave most friends behind on horde when switching to alliance?
why not do both?
fraction change and wargames when there can be no fast match between the fractions.
p.s. some guys of you posting 24/7 on this forum. whats wrong with you guys. play the game but dont make it to your lifegoal. its annoying af to see only the same guys overreacting all the time. making 40 posts a day while using same “arguments”. stop it please
Long term though it might actually be very harmful to the game.
I had the “fortune” of playing on a dead server once as the opposite faction left it en masse, and it was really f***ing boring.
Eventually the whole server kinda died, because what fun is there to be on a pvp server where nothing happens apart from pure pve with your own faction.
Playing on a mono-faction pvp server is imo worse than playing on a pve server, because on a pve server you at least see the opposite faction, and fights can at least happen (even if rarely).
