I just want people to know how horrible horde pvp is these days and my thoughts on why pvp is horrible.
First of all gear - I don't care if i'm queue'ing to your bg and that my gs is 2.X gs. If you have a problem with gear mattering so heavily in bg's blame Blizzard, they designed this mess back in the day and they at the time didn't think it was a big deal, neither should you. If me or someone else is weighting the team down with their gear, maybe you should fix what you can fix and that's queue with more friends that have gear that way you don't have to see people like me in my nasty *** leveling greens.
Second of all - If we're losing a match and people are afk'ing, its expected and should be expected, especially considering how bad horde is at pvp lately. I have queue'd all day as Horde and all I can say is I am absolutely horrified at the degenerates that are playing Horde at this server. If you think you're a good person, or if you think you have some skill or at least what should be going on in bg's. Then please, go play alliance as horde do not deserve to have skilled, able minded individuals that actually wanna win. I tell you this right now, because I promise you, there is nothing wrong with the game, but it's wrong with the community and that is something I do not believe for a second that Warmane can fix. Some people are just plain rotten to the core and they think they own this game because they have a 1337 gs or know how to top the charts, but truthfully these kind of leetest are out weighted by the 100's of players that just don't know how to follow simple objectives.
All day it's been the same thing in and out of almost every bg:
No one wants to heal.
Everyone rushes to mid and trying to kill random targets when the enemy healer is right over their shoulder healing the guy they're trying to kill.
No one stays on bases. Literally if you leave the base, everyone goes along with you and you'll look back and see no one hanging out by that flag.
Almost no one trying to get the enemy flag or if they do, no one tries to cover for them or heal them/off heal them when they need it.
and
No one rushes back to the keep to back cap tower and take back the keep. They'd rather just be pushing mid and directly pvp'ing instead of following objectives.
My final thoughts are, if you wanna come to Lordaeron to PvP, don't expect happy balanced factions. No no no! Blizzard gave Alliance the almighty and powerful PvP trinket in WoTLK and it's been a curse on this game ever since and Blizzard through out the years just flat out ignored it and so on a progression server like Lordaeron, almost all the good pvp'ers have flocked to Alliance and Horde get the left overs and it has left the Horde in a sad sad place as this has been one of the most toxic experiences I have ever seen and it has broken my heart seeing things get this bad.
Great job with the coding Warmane, i really mean that. Thank you, but sadly you couldn't fix the community.
I've had several whispers today from very upset players that just wanted to get to endgame and enjoy some pvp, but they tell me everything I've pretty much told you. Many of them are rerolling Alliance, but i feel bad for those that are trying to suck it up as i think they're just being bullheaded, but i feel they'll end up quitting before log.
