Alterac Valley Queues

Yeah, I mean I sit in these queues at all hours, for hours. So I get it, it sucks.

Doesnt mean there is a fix that is realistic though.

The solutions are…

  1. Get horde to reroll.
  2. Get more alliance to play.
  3. Get less horde to play.
  4. Shorten the duration of the average game.

Average game time went up when horde began turtling. And average queue times continue to get worse because alliance pugs started getting no honor after being blocked and farmed at Balinda/Stonehearth GY/Icewing choke.

Horde started turtling and denying alliance pugs any honor at all and then they wonder why queues jumped to 50 minutes.

If you want shorter queue times, either stop blocking alliance pugs at Balinda, petition Blizzard to move the horde starting cave further south so they reach the middle of the field at the same time as the alliance, change Balinda/Galv where it isn’t a race, and stop giving bonus honor for holding objectives.

Drop out after rank 14? Only one of those per week… Most will drop after 10 or 11.

Or, after they hit exalted.

Battlegroups is one solution. The other would be let us queue as group. If Horde could do 40 man premade it would be worth the 30-40 minute wait.

It’s not a bad thing really.

You’re competing against Horde for Honour. If queue times go up all Horde player’s honour is affected.

Id just relax. ranking will happen when it happens if you force it you will resent it.

alot more alliance would que if they got rid of the premades. theres really no point for alliance to que right now with all the problems.

Can I have some of what you are smoking?

Stop asking for queue times to get reduced.

It’s actually a blessing in disguise.

Why are we still talking about this?

How would you feel about Horde vs Horde AV? One Horde team plays from the Alliance side.

Could make for some interesting matches and data for the map/faction bias debate.

So what’s the problem?

This? :rofl:

Just because you don’t like the obvious solution doesn’t make it any less constructive. Most of the players who like PVP rolled Horde. Blizzard can’t force Alliance players to queue for PVP if they don’t want to. Re-rolling Alliance is your ONLY solution.

Just upsetting how easy the fix is and they won’t do it. Youd think they would want to keep all thoose playing Classic for thier investors

Please read what I wrote again. Read it again and again if need be, then you might understand what I was saying. If you don’t, well I’m sorry about your comprehension.
Second thought, never mind, Ill explain it. If you notice after the words " should of rolled alliance", there are the words " So, tough luck pal attitude" it is the attitude in tandem with the idea that doesn’t help and isn’t constructive.
Have a nice day and good luck :slight_smile:

Nothing short of Blizzard deleting 50% of Horde characters is going to bring down queue times. Since that obviously isn’t going to happen, your only solution is to re-roll Alliance.

Well, there still might be another way. Somebody might come up with something, and good job coming up with nothing original and misreading the point of this thread. You are amazing, in a way.

Currently on my server its upto 1 hr 15 mins avg queue time.

Possible <-- (emphasis on possible) Solution. If its not already the case, all the servers for the region linked for pvp queue’s. All US East, together. All US West together, but only for their regions, get the idea? Probably means they will have to upgrade the server, but it would give people more access to battlegrounds across the entire region you log in from. That’ll shorten the queue system, pvp, or pve.

Deleting peoples toons, Shadows is cause for losing a paying customer. They will not do that, ever.

Rerolling to alliance, most people won’t just to satisfy a desire to pvp. Instead, they should promote more pvp options to the playerbase. And in any event, this going on 24/7, it will be hard on them to come up with any other viable solution to improve queue times.
