Unplayable Battlegrounds

90% of the RANDOM Battlegrounds are premade Russians, French or Germans even sometimes Spanish, full on 10 people que at same time, what is the point of this? Why is this allowed in the game? Sure there is social aspect “que” with friends, what about abuse the que? Maybe It’s just me but I can’t literally win 1 random BG for cap, literally my Reflex addon ratio so far is 15 wins 35 losses? This normal? Also there are community’s that que together to win 40 man epic bgs and so on, this is such a bad state of the battlegrounds and don’t get me started we didn’t get anything new for decade now xD rewards are awful after the cap, again maybe it’s just me, but I surely can’t win for the life of me

I had enough of lvl 70 premades and went to lvl 10-19 bgs and there are people with xp-locked buff on ruining the bg.

Whoever is in charge of pvp should get fired…

He literally dragged himself out to the door.

Another note, how does blizzard expect on English servers, for anyone to say who to target first, when the Russian names are illegible to type or even say.
Yes they want to play also, but it’s getting where every other game is a R-pre in 40 man. I agree 100% something needs to change. Q-ing with a few friends, 2-5 sure, but 20?-30? cmon!

I think the major conflict here comes from the fact that you think that the word “random” in “random battle grounds” means that the teams consist of random players, but that is incorrect assumption.

Back in the day when battle grounds were introduced you had to queue for each of them separately and since you could only be in limited number of queues at once it could be hard to get queue for some less liked battle grounds. To fix this random battle ground queue was added - which lets you say: “I do not care which battle ground I play on, I just want to play”.

So the “random” means a “random map” not “random teams”.

anyone with 2 brain cells knows random bg means random map…

I only see posts made by you complaining…you cant handle some russians? Leave and queue again. Simple.

thats not a good solution, think about it, first you have to leave, meaning that the game would fill in another player in an ongoing game, possibly losing, possibly making game even more one sided

second ud have to wait 15 mins deserter, only for praying to god for it to not literally happen again in the bg after

Just w8 15 mins…isnt big deal…make some coffe, go piss…the epics are not full with russians…in 10bgs maybe you will find 3 premades

wish blizzard started putting more match history to see if we can back some of these up, id love to have match history and more bg info stats and development

but you dont get the conquest rewards for choosing the BGs only in random so whats the point in choosing if theres no reward

yea thats it leave the BG to que again after the 15min deserter to get put in against the same premade or another… peoples issue is that theres no balance
people with basic pvp gear or pve gear because theyre just starting pvp are thrown in against fully geared epic pvp premades.
since the last patch ive played over 50 BGs and everyone of them is an alliance premade fully geared.
could just be bad luck on my side but i doubt it when i read the same comments ingame plus in forums

Did you read the post? It is obvious that OP was under the assumption that “random” meant “random players”

Imagine playing the game just because it is fun…

Anyway why does this matter? Random is still random map and playing an MMO together with friends should be the norm. I get that these days players seem to want mostly solo experiences (as evident why the solo self found hardcore in Classic WoW is such a success), but PvP is not primarily a solo activity.

Do you guys really think this team care about unrated pvp? They could not care less…

pvp is dead, 20+ min queue times on alliance LOL. all went downhill after legion. blame it to game directives/ors.

(they killed the random fun in random bgs long time ago)

horde has short q, because they kept spoonfeeding rewards to alliance until most teams guilds and pvp players went alliance, all sellouts

now horde get even instant queues sometimes

I was just in a game with 15 russians. Want screenshot? Stop your bs. “Make some coffeee. Piss in your coffee. Drink your own piss”. Just shut up man
