I want to know if Blizzard actually cares about the environment they created in AV. Do they get a special happy smile watching Alliance losing 99% of matches (I assume its around there from just my personal experience). We had a fix. Those that cared talked with each to try for a win. They took that away. How DARE we talk to our fellow gamers! (yes, many didn’t like this either, but they fixed the dropped queue issue but then decided that wasn’t far enough) My only guess is Blizzard hates the Alliance and all those that PAY to play it. I know the problem is complex that got us here but we the gamers had the fix, Blizzard has only made it worse time and time again. I just want an apology from them for taking my money and making my Vanilla WoW into this AV Classic HELL. Thank you for taking the time to read my small little rant. Nothing will change but I feel better now?
Ok enough with the 99% bs
Has anyone won an AV this week?
Anyone?
I won on Wednesday morning. 1/44 this week so that’s like 98% Horde win rate…
Pointless thread. Crying only works when it comes from the horde.
97.73%
It’s what she said
Yes, they do, hence them doing what they did.
Did you care a bit about the things you were doing to fellow alliance players?
Me thinks the answer may be No?
Well then you will be pleased to know that they gave you the ability to talk to everyone in your AV.
They put battlenet voice right into the game.
Horde has PUGs, Alliance has PUGs
If you are always losing, do something different.
It isn’t like they took something away from you and gave super weapons to the horde.
If there were herbs, there wouldn’t be an issue. They really sh*t the bed when they chose to use this crap version of AV.
I’ll stop you there to make things easy. No, they don’t. This isn’t a new revelation. The real Blizzard died years ago when anyone of value left the company.
Someone from my guild said 98% and I laugh
Bummer. I guess we’ll have to relearn how to PvP to win at PvP.
won 1 game lmao
Gythriel, your quote missed an important part of what she said. Let me get that part for you:
Let me emphasize the important part:
The rampant AFkers and botters in your AV don’t give a flying duck.
They simply ignore or berate you.
.
.
THAT is the part we miss - working with people who care.
They only usually berate me when they find i am using snowballs to push them out of the cave, then they scream blue murder and threaten everything under the sun.
Unfortunately, we are going to get the lions share of those people because of the queue times.
I dont know what to tell you there, we can’t team kill them, best i can suggest is note the names.
As many of these idiots use some auto queue acceptance bot, and since the queue looks, to the bot, the same as the accept summon dialog, you can summon the ones on your server to really bad places.
Ive seen them summoned to an enemy city, to kazzak, summoned to fire/lava etc.
I am told, but can not confirm, that a party invite also works, and that you can invite them, then summon them, and then proceed to kill civilians.
But other than a few cheap revenge things, not sure how to actually fix it.
The game has a number of things designed to punt those people, but then they go pay 30 bucks for a new improved version of what ever bot which makes sure they move a little and jump and do something like bandage or cast a heal or buff on themselves ever now and then.
/vote teamkill would be nice, but it would get abused
You have to wonder if the guys who made AV are even still around. Modern Blizz devs don’t care though that’s for sure. They probably haven’t changed AV in retail either.
Blizzard is openly horde favored and their horde favoritism is all over the place so yes.
You’d be lucky for Blizzard to even ban you if you were botting that’s how little they care.
2 / 637 games were victories for me since the change. 0.3% winrate.
Granted, I don’t really care if we win or lose. I get decent honor regardless of victories or not, since most of my honor comes from kills in Field of Strife. If the team pushes south and actually wins the game, that’s great. I’ll come along and help.
The moment I see them start pulling Warmasters, though, I just recall, because they’re going to get wiped because they don’t know how to play the game.
27 of my last 27 games have been losses so you may have a point 99% is a little low. 100 is more accurate at least in my case in Oceania.
What a fool. Blizzard didn’t ban any voice chat… they fixed an exploit the Alliance created. There’s nothing stopping you from getting on chat once you’re actually in the battleground. After all, that was the alliance’s fix response to Horde not being able to premade.
When you can actually accept you got punished for doing something wrong, only then will you be able to move forward and stop sooking.
I’ve got to be honest, I’m completely for a map change to give the alliance players a path to victory, but I’m still deadset against full premades in AV.
I just think Blizzard needs to hurry up and push a version of the AV map where the cave is a bit further south. That would change things dramatically, and I think we’d see win rates look normal, not 99% for one side.
Im sure they know its broken. They remember that they moved the horde cave back in later patches… So they know.
But they are likely patching it and sitting back and going “But you said you wanted classic with all its flaws right? You think you do?”
Im sure theres some small smug satisfaction there. They are legit quick patching it just to keep the hordes win rate in tact, lol. Crazy.
