Okay, but then you go on to say
So do you want cross-faction or no? Because guilds also run dungeons, and mythics, raids, bgs, arena…Almost like guilds do more than raid.
Either you want cross faction play, or you don’t. Doing it half-caulked like that is one of the problems we have in this game a lot, and it is kind of ruining it.
Staggering a release for a new feature sounds great, but let people know that it is in fact going to be staggered, as opposed to a permanent feature. Communication is key to any successful relationship. Ours is “buyer/player” and “seller/dev”. Them communicating, in a game like WoW at least, is paramount to success.
But that is not the issue here. The issue is just simply adding cross-faction play to more than just HALF of the game. Some people are never going to raid, some are never going to do RATED pvp, and even fewer still are going to worry about doing Mythic + enough, or at a high enough level to need/want cross faction play…or really to even care in the first place.
By doing it for only guild/rated pvp/mythic plus…it just sounds like they are making another mistake like Flight… An overly vocal minority cried all day every day for months in the forums, so eventually Blizzard took it out for that reason and for cutting corners…but that’s a different topic… This time, it is just Blizzard catering to the super minority of people that are NOT ONLY in a guild, but an active guild, and one that regularly raids, knows people on the other faction, is good friends with people of the other faction, and the other people are also in a guild, and also are raiding, and also have the same or similar skill levels, and progress levels and gear levels and and and and and and and…The deeper you go into how limiting this actually is, and how small of a population of people that actually is (making grand statements, so understand hyperbole) the more you realise that its pointless to NOT impliment it in all facets of gameplay.
Honestly, it’s about time we stop fighting each other anyway! We have way bigger issues to worry about than factions.
Many fantasy stories I have read, involve at least one race of like Elves or some such that no longer do real battles because they know how to just work together, and talk to the other races… So instead, they do things like “The Flower Wars” in “The Obsidian Trilogy” from Mercedes Lackey & James Malloroy. They just have a proxy war. Real weapons and armor, but all just for show. They ride unicorn mounts, and dance, and jump, and put on a big show…because they are just showing how far they have come…
Maybe the Horde and Alliance can do that as well…hold Battlegrounds, in honour of our fallen brothers and sisters, lost mothers and fathers…Maybe they just hold comemerative battles, where you can just pick a side and have fun with it…BUT FOR HONOUR AND GLORY! ZHUG ZHUG (is that how you spell that?)
Well, you forgot the rest, so here…let me read it FOR you!
To which I said
It is in fact only applicable to mythic+ and such…
To which you said
Which is what we just said here
Since you can’t be bothered to read those, let me also explain it to you. You see, Shalemara said the same thing you said.
I agreed with them. And You. You are both correct. I am also correct, because I am saying the same thing.
And this bit:
Needs no response. Shalemara and I already know, and have established with everybody else on here, that we want the option, and for it to be a toggleable option.
Shale knows it. I know it. WE know it. YOU know it.
See? We all agree. NO need to try and correct something that was never incorrect…
