Empty battlegrounds issue

Not enough players. Battleground will end up in 2 minutes.

Well, this is not something new.

The check is probably being made and it’s requirements are probably being met only there’s a lot of people clicking decline instead of accept
You can say put the check after placing people on accept, but then there’s no trigger for the yes/no prompt

Another option is removing the prompt and just forcing people to join, that way if they leave they also have deserter
I just doubt that this will be a popular solution

They should check number of players at the start time and count only those who are actually present in the instance, then wait until the teams are even.
It shouldn’t be that hard, since every other online multiplayer game somehow capable doing it.

haven’t you heard? blizzard is a small indie company

Could have joined since start if i had small balls. Thanks for an invite tho.

In fact, i really like how horde went full turd mode “its not a premade fault hahahahah” cringe, meanwhile the same situation happens with warsong gulch, where alliance starts with 5-6 people and getting party full only at the end of the battleground. Prolly your meme faction didnt notice it since used to be in numerical advantage since p2.

Whats ur suggestion there, undead smartpants ?
Disable premade ques for warsong gulch too ?
Forbid random masses of random players to drop ques for whatever reason they want ?

Talking about chimps

Time has passed and your landing is still on fire ay
Self cookin beef

Yep, it’s premades’ fault.
The matchmaking system wasn’t designed to make up for a coordinated decline to join, in a fast manner.

This chimp struck a nerve it seems


No, if bgs worked this way back then it shouldnt be changed. Blame your faction for dropping queues.

I’m so used to it, still have fun there, and it is all about fun, playing games like this.
I found premades boring, and if i end in one, i dispell slackers and fighting on the tail.

Seriously?

++wait_time

Oh NO!! I get an instant queue and it’s not the type of game I want


there’s one valid solution here: Enable the queue as group button - right now, it’s possible for one faction to pre-make AV groups - if they just enabled the group queue button, it’d be solved fairly quickly


No, alterac valley is not supposed to be premaded. Just leave it as is, bgs havent been out for a month yet and we should give it some time to see if the pool evens out somewhat.

Horde: Please fix unfair advantage that only alliance can join as a premade group
Aliance: #NoCange

Aliance few days later: Hmmm, our premades mess up our solo group games. Blizard please fix!!!one!1

Happened with warsong gulch too. You are not able to que WSG as premade ?
So this not about premade, this is about system in general, but keep roleplaying clowns.

It happens if people not go in a BG they queue up for. So yeah, it can happen in WSG too, or in a full PuG AV.

The fact that it happens so much in AV though, is because of premade groups structurally join queues and then not join the game on purpose because they did not get enough players from their group in the same game. So they intentionally cause these unbalanced games on this scale.

If it was the natural way, you might miss out a few players every now and then for a few minutes, but nothing like this what is happening now.

Fix premades, fix your issue.

Or stick with the meme of #NoChange and suffer the consequences of your own faction players screwing things up for you.

But your phase 2 was very competitive, yes? You have been looking for good challenges, right? Especially when yours was one of the most dogsh*t guilds of the entire realm as evident by several laughable screenshots shared in Discord, yes I’m sure the game is just suddenly not fairly competitive.
