I like that idea a lot more than most…especially since it gives us a lot of interesting data about the map.
Unfortunately, I simply don’t think we live in a world where that will ever happen.
Instant BG queues are a pretty good reason.
Not really, BG rewards in BC were nerfed to force arena participation.
Uh… nerfed from what? BG rewards in Vanilla were only good until Naxx. Then PvE gear was far superior.
Also I don’t plan on playing much arena.
The game doesn’t allow you to queue as a premade raid group for AV. So no, it’s not “intended.”
And sorry I picked a race/class combo that interested me on the faction I hadn’t played in vanilla for the experience, I guess. Reported, by the way. You should probably calm down on your vacation.
Sure, if you plan on ignoring the main pathway of pvp-gear progression, then sure you might find incentive to rolling Alliance in TBC. Everyone else, not-so-much.
all you have to do is open the gate early for alliance (the same thing they did in retail at some patch).
then make the horde cave respawn timer 35 or 40 second intervals instead of 30. Or make it 10 respawn/cycle like all the other locations.
I plan on playing on a PvE server - always and forever regardless of whether it’s Classic or TBC or Wrath. I love BGs. Arenas are meh. So yes, it’s totally worth going Alliance as far as my play style’s concerned.
Not everyone cares about arenas, or PvP for that matter. There will be enough Alliance.

I am glad we’re in agreement then, if you want to pvp in BGs but want to ignore Arenas and the superior gear they provide…then rolling Alliance in TBC might make sense.
For everyone else, not-so-much.
More like Septictank because all of your posts are full of crap.

Basically sums it up.
Compared to other pvp rewards.
Also BC introduced resilience to put a hard difference between pvp and pve gear.
According to the forums we have a 100% win ratio. Now I don’t know what to believe…
It’s lower now. 80-90% maybe. It’s still abysmal, but I have actually won a couple games in the last week.
The games I lose in all of them IBGY Is totally ignored and SF is kept.
I have noticed the same thing. SF is much more defensible for Allies.
Any horde loss is due to premades, exploits and there is no advantages for Horde, the tiny, underreped faction that people rolled for aesthetics.

I don’t thnk that’s what the majority of horde think. Most of the forums is horde saying ally need to L2Play and their racials are pretty great for gnomes, dwarfs, and humans.
This OP is kinda on his own island.
I woke up at 5am and you horde sweatys are already in a full froth. One mention of a premade and it’s defcon 1
