As a passionate player of World of Warcraft, I have always valued the epic battlegrounds as an accessible and enjoyable place for solo players like myself to enjoy PvP and engage with other players. However, within the last ~15 years, the enjoyment of this game has been hampered by a growing issue that seeks to distort the balance of competition.
Large groups of players are forming communities, with the goal to bypass the established group limit of 5 players by syncing their entrance into the battlegrounds. This specific act of que-syncing circumvents the gameâs system and the concept of fair play and dampens the spirit of competition that World of Warcraft is known and loved for. In a game that hosts an estimated 8 million players, the impact of this growing trend is ultimately detrimental to the majority of battleground-players who enjoy playing the game solo or in smaller groups.
World of Warcraft provides built-in outlets for coordinated team play, such as Rated Battlegrounds and Wargames. Still, these significant groups continue to exploit epic battlegrounds on a daily basis, undermining the spirit and intention of them. This process essentially monopolizes the battlegrounds, driving many players away from the PvP experience.
In response to this, we request Blizzard Entertainment, the creator of World of Warcraft, to implement measures preventing the possibility of multiple groups syncing their entry into the same epic battlegrounds. It is essential that World of Warcraft maintains its spirit of fairness and competitive play for all members, regardless of whether they choose to play solo or within a group.
TLDR: Are you also tired of getting stomped by big skill-less premade groups in random epic bgs, making your PvP experience impossible? Then please sign this petition. I hope to get enough signatures with it to reach out to Blizzard.
No one care. If you cant play bcs of premades, next petition gonna be my team get 2 healers and enemy 12 healers its lose. Even players still can sync without groups. Jusy queue same time and if most of the ppl have pop then enter bg. Many ppl love premades and only 20 ppl write on forums that its bad. Lol. Anywya preamde its mean 1 team win and 2 team lose. Nothing more.
Yes! When people like something they have good emotions and they think like its ok and they dont have a reason go forum and write premades super really nice. They just play and have fun in premade and with premade. They never write. But when people angry, when they dont like something they always want cry and go forum, bcs they angry and have emotions from something. So on forums we can see 20 ppl who dont like it. And how much ppl like premades? Much much more.
He is right and u are wrong,ppl like myself stopp playing because of premades . They are sick and tired playing a game infested with ppl like u. Once i had panâŚra 29 times in a row and i had u very often over 10 times in a row.
It would be super if everyone who agrees/likes the post would sign this petition. Itâs a small effort to make. On another forum I posted this it received hundreds of likes yet only 8% of them actually signedâŚ
Much appreciated!
you play with the same 20 people every single day for years and with each month queue times get longer because of you and a handful of other people (less than 50 total) premade spammers.
you are an ultra minority and a cancer on the game. the solution for you and other premade spammers has always been obvious.
ban permanently every single one of them that queue syncs
this is not something you stumble into or something that most of the playerbase will do once. it is an extremely bizarre and niche behaviour that has a lasting effect on hundreds or thousands of players each week.
for normal bg spammers the solution is equally as easy - a 5-10% healing, health and damage done nerf per player you queue with after 2. queueing as a duo is already an enormous advantage, 3-4-5 makes it nearly impossible to lose unless you face another premade. this debuff would not only make the game an actually playable fun experience for the premaders themselves, as opposed to what it is now (aoe one fight and instantly win) but it would also enable enemy teams the possibility of winning more than 2% of the time.
instead of having to have this explained to you by the people you ruin the game for, you could provocatively engage the caged empathy part of your brain and use it to understand how you effect others around you, then pair that up with your equally absent shame emotion to fuel change and improvement in yourself.
alternatively you could go to Kursk.
I stop playing this game for 5 months and come back for 2 days and the same 5 premade makers are in the first 20 bgs I play. Sectioned, baker acted, whatever its called in your country.
Premade battlegrounds take the ârandomâ out of the âRandom Epic Battlegroundâ, I am not surprised that Blizz have not done anything about it., it has been an issue for ages and they donât care. I am more surprised that people actually join these groups.
A coordinated premade team meeting a team of randomly grouped up strangers is not a hard game to win for the premade team. Like Leeches said, a group of 2 queueing together is already an advantage. A full group is just dumb.
It makes me think they are not up for the challenge, they take the easy way out like proper cowards. It takes a specific type of person to make the effort to find these groups and queue up with them using addons, discord and whatnot just so they can win. It is pure laziness and cowardice and it makes me pity them.
Just look at this Larkus guy lurking around on all the threads about this issue. Not only does he do these premade groups for the âpremature guysâ, he also have to defend it on the forums as if it is justified. Just because they found a way around the rules does not make them a good player.
Tho despite me feeling sorry for these guys (and trust me, they are all guys) I do not feel like their lack of skill and patience should make the rest of us lose out on a genuine random game. It is the random that makes it fun.
As someone who has played this game for just about 2 decades, there has always been poor personalities in any group content. I am a little tired of just accepting it.
Mostly this is within our own team, where people can be absolutely vile. Why should we have to accept a dumb oversight from Blizz causing the absolute stomping from the opposite team using an unfair advantage? They already want us down. It should be an even fight, or itâs not a fight at all.
No matter if it makes a difference or not, sign that petition in the original post. That is all we can do, take a stand and make our voice heard.
We can hope that Blizzard will finally care about this issue but I would not hold my breath. In the meantime maybe we could at least try and fix the issue with bad attitude between players in the same team ourselves.
Be nice to each other, and put your foot down when someone is putting others down.
If you want an organised game against others, just use the rated option like a normal person.
Signed the petition, getting real tired of constantly going against premades in Epic BGs.
But, real talk? The only way to get Blizzard to actually listen, is to deprive them of the thing they want the most: your money. Spread the word around, donât renew your subscription/game time, and keep trying to reach out to Blizzard staff via their social media.
Something needs to be done, enough is enough.
Also, donât feed the obvious troll.
Been an issue since vanilla days, Premade (Av premade addon) if anyone remembers.
20+ years and I donât think Blizzard will do anything about it, especially now the game is getting dominated by third party boosting services and legalized boosting via in-game token (gold) which completely broke the gameâs ecosystem along with social interaction. (90% of Premade groups links with boosting services)
All we have left mostly âRigged Gamesâ, âSmurf Ranking matchesâ with terrible algorithm all over the place. (Usually same known names too)
Good luck however with the signatures! Complain is highly valid.
Tell me you donât know how to play without being backed by a premade group, without telling me you donât know how to play without being backed by a premade group.
