Wasn't it you who said "this should not be an issue, because as soon as he leaves the actual BG for WSG, there should be a free slot for someone else in this actual BG. so a new player can join that empty slot"? It looks like someone left, opening a free slot for someone else, who in this case was you - and this should not be an issue, according to you.Quote:

I would much prefer longer queue times than 9/10 games being massively unbalanced from queue hopping. Players were just using the bgs that pop first as a temporary bg while they wait.
This new system inconveniences a lot of players, though so did the original system. You can't win :(
Why do you think it wasn't a problem a month ago? As far as I can tell, it was every much a problem a month ago as it was a week ago.Quote:

Now you actually have to think about what you want to do before brainlessly queueing and entering a BG just as a placeholder until your preferred pops. It might inconvenience some people, while at the same time it benefits others. I've lost count of the amount of winnable BGs instantly lost because people bailed to another BG.Quote:

You don't know that. You can't know that.Quote:

Your account was made just over two weeks ago and the only posts from this account are in this thread. So, I'd wager that they can find it just as easily as you did.Quote:

I think its a very good change that also enforces more world pvp if ppl have to wait 20 min queue because they just want to grind alterac then you just go up elemental plateau pvping until queue pop. Honor farming might be slower now than before but I rather have balanced battlegrounds (multiboxer POV).
OMFG.... Thanks Warmane for this much welcome change. I've been here since day 1 and on alliance side. The last month or so been playing more horde and let me tell you I almost faction transferred yesterday because while it happens on alliance side, bg jumping is way worst on horde side. I was sick and tiered of joining games only to get farmed by alliance because horde started with less people. Also, aren't horde the majority here on Outlands? cuz it doesn't feel like that in PVP.
Maybe now that will change. I can't wait to log in today and test it. Might even make a forum post for a nice static group.
Im so happy this was finally implemented... THANKS, again Warmane Staff.
Awesome changes!
Bgs are much more competitve now. No more leavers and finally balanced numbers.
It seems like party members that are in no Bg aren't able to requeue a person that is currently in a BG. So this system can't be abused which is good. Thanks!
I like balance as well, but this change still makes it much harder for newly dinged to get honor gear, and before that you have no chance fighting the opposite faction. So players who never played on this server before will be much more likely to quit, because of the much longer grind time you need to spend.
nvm alterac still starting 20vs15
would've been too good to be true
How's that any different than the way AV was pre-fix? The minority of AVs I've been in have started 40v40.Quote:
