Horde can’t get matchups quick enough.
Alliance always moaning about losing such a high percentage.
It must be Russians always get to play others than each other.
Imagine playing pvp without playing a russian team?
If horde are actually that much better for whatever reason, wouldn’t it be nice if now and again they could play each other and alliance could occasionally “train up” against themselves?
This would solve a lot no?
If you face the opposite faction its normal pvp if you face your own faction its still pvp but just “training” instead?
initially i don’t like it but the way its gone over the years it seems the next logical step to me no?
Just stick everyone in the same pool of players, then randomly assign them to a team.
The current system was fine when the game was more populated, but now with the clear numbers imbalance between the factions and the overall decrease in the volume of players, it’s clearly no longer working.
To make it worth their while, they should do it for random dungeons, timewalking, raid finder and all unrated instanced PvP, as well.
I say if they want to play on blizzards favorite child faction they can suffer the little inconvenience of long queue times.
They them self created the “problem” by acting like a sheep transferring to easy mode faction.
What annoys me the most is that sometimes when we enter the bg for some reason the match starts even if Alliance team has 50% less players i have had this happen lots of times recently join in AB and we have 7-10 people and horde has full team and the match still starts.
Then after 0,5-1 min in to a match we get our replenishment people and by that point its already all over because people who are in the game already have given up and the people who join at that point only start moaning how bad everybody is and go AFK.
No. Its time for some other company to copy best bits from WoW and make PvP game that has no PvE bull#¤%& in it. It will come someday. Blizzard has abandoned PvP and PvP has not had any PvP tuning since mid Legion. Its over.
Just wow… How delusional can you be? Can’t be helped that all of Alliance races are basic and super boring which drives mature players into the more interesting faction. No one chooses to play Alliance (well, I guess now with Shadowmeld being OP in M+ some do to push best times). People only end up playing Alliance because
A) they started as kids and wanted to play “the good guys”.
B) they saw Lord of the Rings and wanted to be an elf.
C) their already playing friends did one of the above.
I’ve never met a single person who actually made the choice to play Alliance that wasn’t primarily one of the three above.
As for the actual topic
What if I told you there was already in-game mechanism for this? It is called Mercenary mode. Go to your faction’s PvP hub and you can queue as the opposing faction. This way if you really feel like Alliance is just garbage you can take longer queues and play as Horde or if you feel like Horde queues are taking too long you can queue as Alliance.
Jokes on you i play on alliance because i like dwarfs and have been fan of them before i even knew what lotr was.
Also i am not a fan of good guy knight in shiny armor crap more of a fan of warhammer dwarf slayers and chaos dwarfs and of course in wow the dark iron.
Only real interesting thing about the horde was the forsaken but that went down the toilet when their race became all about sylvanas and her thirst club.
And lastly mature yea… not really both factions are like cry babys and back in tbc/wotlk i left the horde because i could not stand the dude bro for the horde crap anymore.
Same difference, you are just basic like that. (falls into the category B, I also know people who are into dwarves, they are just like people who are into elves)
So you had a bad guild or something? I don’t really know what dude bros means.
I also didn’t mean mature in a sense that people act “adult”, but instead as straight up age thing. From multiple attempts to play on Alliance side a lot of the playerbase are in their early teens, while most of the players I encounter on Horde side are in their late twenties. Just that alone explains a lot why Horde is winning in a PvP scenarios on average.
I mean the constant for the horde yelling that happened back then the constant faction pride bumping.
I like Alliance not because the faction but to me Alliance is and always has been more laid back than the nose bleed serious try hards that horde had back in the day when i still played the red faction.
I also like the cities and architecture of alliance more only races that on horde side have any appeal to me were the old pre cataclysm forsaken and tauren all the rest is just boring brown spikes and tusks.
I just wish that developers would pull their head out of their butts and start writing compelling interesting characters for alliance and make less knight in shiny armor Disney prince crap like Anduin he is one of the least interesting character in the game ever.
What we need is PVP VENDORS in shadowlands. And system that worked before. Like 410 itl pvp gear scales in pvp combat to 440 to mach up with pve gear. It was fair and balanced. This… now its disquasting…
Well when our enemy team has over 100 ilevel better gear i would not call that even trying when people die to a minor breeze. To me that is try hard especially when they won’t even go to quick win and prolong the fight.
My overall shared win rate over all my characters is over 50% and i am not really complaining about losses my pet peeve is people who throw towel 30 seconds before gates even open.
UNFORTUNATELY like so much “misinformation” on the forums…you can only swap sides for pvp so you don’t have to queue as long so Alliance cannot swap as the queue is always horde side…but thanks anyway.
You should really be i440 to have a good go at random pvp, last battle i was in yet again a total alliance slaughter…3 guys didn’t even have i300 yet…so its not going to improve much now is it when that is happening.
