So now I have to wait 10+ minutes to enter AB, ~20 to enter AV, and then pretty often watch how half of my team either gets oneshot by enemy or is afk. And that, compared to instant queues we had before? Doesn't feel like improvement at all. Feels more like a massive waste of time spent on waiting for BG.
Instead of nice 20 minutes of PVPing used for winning my daily BG, now I will spend 20 minutes in queue, and then there's a big chance of being stuck with a team filled with afk people who either bot it or are always afk, and no way to leave bg or even report them, if you're in BG like wsg, where you may have not enough people reporting, since they went afk or don't care. Seems like a terrible thing.
What will this change? For sure plenty of people like me will start doing premades, since they don't want to waste 2 hours to win one battleground now, while they were doing that in less than 30 in 95% of cases before. And with full geared premades of people you will see one sided farmfest of the other team at graveyard, with no chance of them leaving, so they will go afk. Gonna be a really enjoyable experience for them. Just writing it here, so you know why those situations will start to happen.
I'd rather get into 100% lose BG knowing, that in few minutes I will be in a better one, than wait for 15 minutes just to be stuck in BG of same quality with either AFK people or full of green geared people with enemy overgearing us.
As I finished writing this, I'm 14th minute in queue for AB, while I ALWAYS got into BG with no more than 60 seconds waiting time. Going back to this very enjoyable waiting...
Change NOT welcome at all.
PS. Honor farm will be few times slower now, on top of it already being slow. New players are gonna have soooo much fun being stuck with low gear for a longer and, and many will stop PVPing due to that, cause how long can you suffer dying in 2 seconds, if getting full gear will probably take 100+ hours ingame, considering waiting queues and new "improved" system.
