Dear Blizzard!
Could you atleast ask if we wanna join an ongoing BG!!!
20min queue just to join a losing battles is NOT OK!

They dont care about the pvp community. Even the random âPvPâ bleed from many aspect. Enjoy Bfa.

Totally. Waiting for 20 odd minutes is one thing, waiting 20 minutes to join a losing BG with no choice is another, especially when itâs a long AV lose etc.
Then be faced with stay, wait and lose or leave and wait 15 mins for the debuff, then queue 20 odd minutes again ![:rofl:](https://d1bg94bbsh66ji.cloudfront.net/en/wow/images/emoji/twitter/rofl.png?v=6" ":rofl:")
At least, if you join a losing BG, then leave, you should not get the deserter debuff, or somesuch. Smh.

Most frustrating thing ever. Waiting in queue 25 min to join a 1200/150 Temple of Kotmogu losing game, thanks Blizz!
At least prioritize us when queuing next game then, since I wasted 25 minutes waiting to play a 1 minute losing game.

What about mercenary mode? Alliance queues take up much less time.
Đn orc masked man stands straight in Mugambala.
Either way there is no point playing a losing battleground because you dont get any reward out of it.
Better afk out and watch netflix or primevideo or youtube until debuff is gone.

Itâs getting beyond ridiculous. 4 out of 5 BGs I join are already lost - itâs a huge waste of time for the sake of nothing. With the same and longer timers on a horde side I probably wonât play BGs at all.
Blizzard, itâs a really simple fix - If player joins ongoing BG give them 2-5 mins of free leave without a debuff. Even if you donât want to give an option to opt out of these BGs, you can at least do that. Or âtime playedâ metric is so important that you OK with players wasting their time and you calling it âplayingââŠ

I have an issue from the other perspective. I start Gilneas BG for example, we are missing some people so it is 8/10 at the start. Teams are evened out but due to lack of people we lose our fight for Waterworks. We never get a chance to recover because teams are even. We are always 8/10 cause we wait tons of time waiting for someone to join. Some people join only to find themselves losing at a bg so they quit. Till end of BG we are outnumbered and bg is lost. This has two sides of the coin. As for the queue times in horde⊠well⊠alliance got shorter queues as there are less people there. Until they decide to put some rating in for casual BGs (why not?) - there is no solution to yours or mine problems.

Someone mentioned before that Blizzard should remove the faction âwarâ on battlegrounds, and just like arenas and rated battlegroudns there would be a chance that u fight your own faction. I support the idea, but dont care now, 9 day and my torment ends at once.

I did but it didnât solve anything
The best thing you can do against this is decline when the queue says 25 minutes but it pops in 5
Waited a long time for a BG, joined a WSG where horde had 2/3 flags and unkillable, unslowable DK took our flag from the front of my nose. Soon they capped despite our best efforts to at least slow down the DK (of course pretty quickly there was 5 horde killing me), and the game was over.
Now I am back to waiting for another BG.
This is the stark reality of playing this game nowadays. Is this what Blizz devs really intended? Is this how this was planned to happen? Is this their DREAM when they started designing BGs all those years ago?
Is this how a sane, rational individual would design BGs?
Just by the way⊠9 losses in a row. Every god damn morning, at least this many losses in a row. And you wait over 20 minutes to get to being stomped.
Itâs always the same horde, the unkillable paladin, the unkillable priests, and the damn rogues that they always have so many of.
Nerf rogues, nerf DK pull, nerf paladins, god damnit, but you wonât, I know. Just so damn frustrating to get STOMPED 9 BGs in a row.
Stupid, stupid horde-biased blizzard that has no interest in giving ally ANY chance of winning.
EDIT: 11 losses in a row now, no chance, being ganked by rogues again. Sigh. Maybe ally could sometimes win, if rogues didnât exist or were ACTUALLY nerfed. How can blizz drop the ball THIS BAD?
P.S. Arcane Missiles were changed from âpowerful minigunâ to âweak leaves fluttering in the windâ. Stop giving the spell visuals useless inertia and weakening them. The sound effects also seem weak now, but nothing has been fixed since Legion. Why did they change something that looked and sounded POWERFUL and perfect, into this weak mess?
Why does blizz ONLY âfixâ things that ARE NOT BROKEN?
Now that I am complaining, I want to also add that other sounds were also changed to have a huge BASS effect every time you use them. This was NOT needed, and it does NOT make things seem more powerful, itâs just stupid to have BOOM BOOM everyplace all the time.
Why was the perfectly good âduel flagâ sound also changed to something resembling a squirrel trying to learn how to use the toilet? WHO is responsible for worsening all the previously perfect and functional sounds and visuals into garbage that makes ears and eyes wish they could vomit? And WHY is this done? PLEASE revert it at least as a test, or give us a CHOICE about every single visual and sound chance - give us a button that we can use to revert it to the way it was, or something like âUse old visuals/soundsâ or âUse new visuals/soundsâ-option.
Give us at least OPTIONS, you ⊠you ,⊠well, I will save what I really want to say, but by golly, are you going to hear it.
EDIT: 12 losses in a row, and when stating the FACTS, I get this âlol quit playingâ and âthe common denominatorâ ,as if ONE player can bring down 12 BGs in a row. I swear, some day I will deliberately TRY to bring down 12 BGs, and I am 100% sure I wonât be able to, IF we have any chance of victory.
So basically, itâs not only fighting OP horde that canât be beaten (premades, etc.), but you also have to fight TOXICITY in the chat. People are SO quick to insult, judge, and not understand you or your plight at all, or even start insulting when you are 100% neutral and ONLY stating facts and statistics.
Like, what the F.? Why the need to insult and be hostile and toxic? Why canât you at least be civil or human about it? Even if you are angry (which I am right now, at blizzard), you donât have to be hostile or toxic.
Sheesh!
EDIT: 5 hours and 13 losses, still no victory. But lots more insults in toxic chat, and suggestions to âroll hordeâ, as if THAT solves anything.
First of all, it wouldnât answer to question, WHY this is happening.
Second of all, it would not feel good to win against something that never wins, it would be like kicking someone in coma. Only against someone strong can a victory feel good. Not against someone weak, who loses all the time anyway. So it wouldnât even solve anything.
Also, horde is evil, I want to kill horde, I donât want to kill civilized ally (I wouldnât mind destroying some toxic morons in chat, though). So if people would AT_LEAST stop being toxic in the chat, we wouldnât have to fight TWO fronts, for crying out loud!
EDIT: 14 losses in a row, still no victory, approaching 6 hours of wasted time.
I mean, we even lost Kotmogu, for crying out loud! Ally never takes orbs, but usually we still win Kotmogu at least. I donât even always count Kotmogu as a win, because itâs so easy sometimes. But not today⊠not in the morning. God damn ⊠something is SO broken, and I donât know, what.
But itâs too much to be a coincidence. Blizz certainly did SOMEthing.
One piece of advice; NEVER decide to just do a BG or two, just a quick win before you go do something else, like shopping for groceries. You will never get to leave, as you will never win.
I had to fast one day already, looks like this is going to be the same. Oh well, fasting is healthy and you lose a lot of weight by only buying food or eating after an ally BG victory.
I always seem to make that plan⊠if you at 5 am think âsurely there will be ONE win between now and 9 amâ, youâd be wrong. You can spend, like I have, MORE than that (over 5 hours now) in a row just sitting and trying to win and failing, because horde is always OP premade, and ally plays stupidly and is amazingly weak.
You will also be ganked by rogues a lot, unless you are a rogue, I guess. I wouldnât know.
And then sometimes, like today, the BGs donât even ever seem to pop up - you wait 15 or 21 minutes to get to that BG, then you see those OP horde names, and you know itâs going to be a loss. You try your best, and end up being ganked by 4 or 5 of them that just wonât let you go and you die and die and die and die and die and die and die. Itâs like playing Silver Surfer, but much worse.
One more thing; since the game keeps horde and ally separate - AS IT SHOULD - why the heck are horde able to write here in the forums, as if theyâre some kind of normal people? I donât want to associate or fraternize with the horde - canât you make separate forums or SOMEthing? How about at least a âDonât show me horde postsâ-button? Sheesh. So inconsistent and annoying.
The first time I Saw this tactic used was in TBC
I probably would have seen it happen in Vanilla but I didnât start playing until TBC
Edit;
It boils down too they outgeared, outclassed and outskilled you, what do you want them to do? Give the individual players a permanent debuff?
Blizzard could you do something about this? Its not fun by any means to wait 15mins to BG and end up in Wsg game when there is 4mins time to play and enemy team leads 2-0! I just waited about 15 min on my Horde char for a game and end up game like that! Do something about it you muppets! And now i get same thing on my ally char one game later, but now 7mins time left and Horde leads 2-0!
