I’ve created an anonymous survey to see how the War Mode forum community feels about War Mode. 10 questions, takes about 2 minutes. This survey and the player rules survey combined, will give us an insight into how forum members feel about War Mode. Only first 100 responses will be included.
Some speculations, from a very very limited data, hehe, but ofc, data makes it very compelling
At this time (50th response):
Faction balance:
So, those who selected options for playing more/less both factions are = 9
Total Alliance in War Mode = 12 + 9 = 21
Total Horde in War Mode = 29 + 9 = 38
So faction ratio in War Mode is around 36% / 64%
Looks like outnumbered bonus % are not for nothing, doesn’t mean it’s good, but still - if forums show how it is really in-game, as many complainers here like to say - then outnumbering is by 28% or 77% more.
What players do in WM:
80%+ do it for WPvP! YEAH!
Do players care about “outnumbered bonus”?
Nope, 70%+ players doesn’t care about it…
Players grouping up:
Well, ether game changed so much and doesn’t really promote social/grouping up, or there is so many lone-hunters hehe, but looks like only ~50% are grouping up regularly.
LFG in War Mode:
about 20% don’t care about it
and about 60% really don’t like it. Can’t blame them, as being hot-dropped by a raid of players appearing out of nowhere can very VERY rarely be fun.
Who feels outnumbered in War Mode:
About 60% of players outnumbered half of the time or LESS - and this is as balanced as it could be. Great!
25%+ of players never feel outnumbered.
So all those forum posters who “cry-cry-cry I’m always outnumbered whaaaaaa” are just drama-queens.
When WPvP was good:
When the game overall was good, haha. Vanilla -> Wrath -> Mists. I can only talk about Vanilla/BC times, but from what others told me - looks very true, it started in Vanilla as an actual PvP game-play, and it was very very good in Mists. Then Devs let it go down.
BfA War Mode satisfaction:
is at 70% .
Maybe if Blizzard remembered that they can connect servers to fix faction balance, and used layering for these connected realms in WM instead of sharding - this number would be bigger because no more RNG of players around and social aspect would be back in WPvP at least in much better capacity than now.
anyway, it is much bigger than our precious forum complainers tend to cry.
