Battleground Holidays and Realm Adjustments – March 10

We already did this, and this change made a lot of those efforts fruitless. Many of these players have already spent money transferring, or time rerolling. I’m personally still on my 3 month cooldown for character transfer. Players shouldn’t have to pay more money to fix an issue that never existed prior to this idiotic decision to change things. Blizzard is creating an issue that wasn’t there previously, for a change that isn’t necessary.

See? no change to OCE

No but Oceania guys have been transferring to US servers because the <60 queues are TOTALLY dead on Oceania, no games in MONTHS!

This change affects us because Oceania prime time is 4am US time, now with this change we don’t get the games here anymore -_-

Maybe if the premades did not make people quit joining battlegrounds because of curbstomping. There might be more people joining battlegrounds now. Actions have consequences.

GG boiz. anyone know of any active p-servers with shorter bg que times?

The only real issue here is that the east coast is forced to play with people that don’t speak the same language. 3 DIFFERENT languages in one battlegroup.

No one cares about twinks. They were and still are possibly the most toxic part of the community.

There are some of us who are not twinks who’ve been really enjoying these brackets, too.

No doubt, but you can queue up and level in between queues. You aren’t just sitting at 29,39,49 to stomp on people leveling.

Nope, I’m sitting at 49 to enjoy WSG in what was always my favorite bracket. Farming Stocks and making grenades in between queues.

Absolutely. i’m not one to over react over little annoyances from patch days. i only really play classic for twinking. I know i’m not alone. i’ll probably unsub, i’ve been stoked for AB for so long. its the only good part about this game. 30+ min ques arent cool. i’ll miss my fellow low levels.

They cant be this short sighted can they? It literally is mindboggling. How is it the players can tell them what will happen and then they just Activision the decision anyway.

We had sub 60 paradise, games popping 24/7 across all brackets. Then actidump comes in a cleaves it in two with 24 hours warning for such a lame reason. I don’t really care what the situation was in vanilla, they took a great thing and ruined it. Lets put it back so everyone can be happy. Do the holiday based on server time, do something else other than splitting the battlegroup.

if you believe that twinks only exist to “stomp” non twinks. That couldnt be far from the truth. If anything, twinks are stomping on non twinks more than ever with these new changes. At least for 49, most of alliance twinks are WCBG and horde are more dominate on the ECBG. There has been a huge split between the community, result is one sided games for both battlegroups.

Why did they not split Europe into different battlegroups liek they did US? Makes no sense to me why we got screwed over like this…

This should NOT be applied to sub 60 battle grounds, why oh why over a few hours would you split battle grounds?!? just leave them alone please! Neither side will care who has a “worse” start and stop time.

You mean, like Europe is doing?

Seems too simple! Honestly, don’t trust the rationale he’s giving on why we are getting split into battlegroups.

Bump. Still upset about this change. WTB shorter queue times.

Queues have increased greatly since this change and now I miss all my east coast horde and east coast alliance rivals. Please find a better solution especially since this is not being implemented in Europe.

With one battleground sub 60 pvp will thrive for years to come which people will want to do even more when Naxx is out and there isn’t much to do. With this change sub 60 pvp will not survive.
