Horde dominate everything. They dominate both PvE and PvP. If you want to raid, go horde. If you want to win BG’s go Horde. If you want to not get camped in war mode, go horde.
I’m currently flying over chromy, and my weiz pvp shows over 100 horde with thousands of alliance skeletons on the floor.
They need to offer more incentives to play Alliance, other than a an extra 75 conquest each week through Against overwhelming odds. They need to offer free race transfers to alliance. They need to over more boots. Increased boosts to rep, to gold earning.
They game is dying if you are at all interested in PvP. To much is all on one faction.
Is that why the mythic+ scene is owned by Alliance? If mythic raiding racing is your thing than yeah Horde wins because its player pool is bigger the racials only make a .5% difference which changes from fight to fight.
They don’t care, they have no plans on introducing cross faction, Vulpera are coming soon, and Blood Elves are likely going to get High Elf customization, so all the Helfers will roll Horde now.
So basically just play Horde or don’t play because it’s going to get a lot worse before it gets better.
I don’t really care about racials, but I want to go back to horde b/c I love the races and story of the horde. Alliance is meh. Super disappointed that the faction barrier isn’t going to be dropped for grouping up. I really wanted to play my favorite horde races to raid with my alliance guild and do BGs/Arenas/M+ with my horde friends. It really sucks with the barrier. Playing on a side you don’t like just so you can play content you want. That’s not a good game concept. I want to be able to RP the character I want in the game I like.
Question for you, why are there so many more Alliance toons where ever I go? Anytime there is a congregation of toons, Alliance always outnumbers Horde.
I think it is because of the story, people left Horde to move to Alliance. That the people who don’t care stayed - so you get a lot of PvE players on Alliance that don’t do anything. Just a guess.
That’s why they introduced Merc mode, so Horde players can still kill without having to faction change or leave their friends.
I mean the lead game designer is a lifelong Horde player, and from the look of the the story, the characters, the allied races, the mounts, you can see if you want any sort of effort in the way of content, you play Horde. Since Cata the main characters have been Thrall, Garrosh, Sylvanas.
Varian died heroically protecting Azeroth, but it’s Saurfang that got the joint Alliance/Horde eulogy in Orgrimmar after he was in a private duel with Sylvanas.
In Mechagon Alliance hovers about and occasionally you see a Hordie, either side. I have Ally and Horde out there. Currently down in Caverns of Time is a ton of Alliance too, and a few Horde.
Alliance already get a huge war mode incentive, Blizzard can’t force people to turn it on. And before anyone says anything, I do play Alliance, at max level, with war mode on always, and I am leveling another Alliance toon right now which has had warmode on the whole time. It isn’t that bad. Sometimes I get ganked, sometimes I do the ganking.
Heres what you do, go to goldshire and tell all the people there ERP’ing to actually play the game and participate in raids and pvp and maybe just maybe you might convince a sweaty nerd to take his hand off his junk long enough to queue up for a random bg or raid.
