Testing Same-Faction Battlegrounds in Burning Crusade Classic

Yes, BUT that only affects BG PVPers. No one else, you people talk like it’s the ONLY part of the game.

no. not at all.

It affects the whole player base due to attrition. People want to play with their friends, people want to play where they have the best chance of finding others who fit their playstyle.

If one faction has more players, all the advantages that come with having more players, and none of the drawbacks that usually follow, then every player will eventually become that faction.

There was already a large case study done on this, so we know how it turns out. It was called “Retail” and you can look it up right now.

time to uninstall… what a clownfiesta this company is.

Doesn’t affect me one little bit. Why? I’m on a PvE realm, again, a PVP only problem.

Fixed that for you.

Yeah, another parts are open world, dungeon groups, arena teams, ah and many other aspects that are going down on alliance side

Not on PvE realms.

Again, PvP and PvP realms are not the ONLY thing in the game.

You PvPers think you are the only thing in the game, when in fact it is an addon, and demand changes that affect everyone.

Pve as well. If alliance is dying - pve statics dying

So you think your mentality that 100% of pvp players have to be horde is any better? If my argument is bs, yours stinks from miles away dude.

If you don’t think it affects you, why are you posting here?

Because of selfish PvPers who demand changes when there is no problem for non-PvPers who play the game too.

And yes, faction changes will affect us.

Your wrong it effects pve servers as well to a lesser extent but you benefit for it at the expense of PvE horde as you get migration of alliance to the pve servers more groups for you fantastic but at the expense of the horde on PvE servers who gets negatively effected as world resources are more than likely taken by the large amount of alliance effecting their economy and farm spots.

It also effects alliance on Pve servers queuing into battlegrounds

It’s “You’re wrong”.

Blizzard are not going to introduce an every character faction change. If they do then it will be on PvE realms as well.

This temporary change does not affect Alliance queuers much. They still get priority, or didn’t you read the whole Kaviax post?

It is going to be a problem for non-PVP players. Because even PVE players need to recruit for raid teams, dungeon groups, world quests, and all that.

Take one look at retail, where by the time 50 Alliance guilds have cleared the newest mythic end boss, over 150 Horde guilds have. Why? Because over the lifespan of the game, more and more players went Horde due to the conditions we’re seeing here. Being able to enjoy the benefits of being the higher population faction without any of the drawbacks.

You might not care about pvp, battleground queue times, or racials, BUT THE PLAYERBASE AS A WHOLE DOES. And this is the start of that playerbase gradually migrating to Horde.

And once that happens, life as Alliance outside of one or two megaservers is going to become very difficult, as players reroll Horde and there are fewer new players rolling Alliance to take their place.

You might not believe me, or think I’m talking crap but retail is right there and it’s exactly like this.

Don’t bother. He’s more focused trying to find typo’s in what people are saying rather than actually finding sensical arguments.

I’m slightly dyslexic, don’t blame me too much.

I don’t understand the Alliance mindset. You mean to tell me as a means to control faction balance is that the numerically superior faction shouldn’t be allowed to progress, or play the game because of 1 hour + queues? What kind of plant I.Q mentality is that? I’m not going to sit around in Outland greens for months while I wait for one hour BG queues and I don’t know any one who respects their time that would do it either.

What alternative solution do you have to help Horde players actually progress in the PvP side of the game instead of just mocking people who have time restraints and telling them to reroll?

Either no premades allowed (this isn’t Classic, it’s not needed anymore) or premades only match against other premades.

If you dont like pvp why are you on a pvp server?
