And people wonder why epic battlegrounds are a wasteland.

Hehe, a while ago I somehow messed up some forum settings for Jonina so had to switch to this one and end up staying :stuck_out_tongue:

So sorry to hear that, and for Pugs to lose an amazing healer and great player :cry: ! At this stage, it’s uncertain how much Blizz would do about these issues in Epic, which is such a big shame and a great missed opportunity - and another reason I love Drualeaf’s idea here, which might create enough incentives (and therefore resources) for Blizz to give us a good Epic BG experience. Anyway, just fixing Epic BG issues will be good enough for me. Don’t know if any of these will ever happen, but knowing the Lag issue is getting resolved brings some hope, and I will be praying for this day to come sooner! And hopefully, get to fight alongside you again! :partying_face:

She said Hello :wave::wave::wave: and You take care too! :hugs:

[Edit]
Just for a laugh, maybe it would be quicker for us to see changes if Blizz put each Epic BG improvement/fix on Kickstarter and raise fund there? Easier for us to track progress too? :smiley:

Waay past midnight, up late doing some stuff and figured I’d check epic BG q times after seeing the post title.

6 minutes q time, like usual, any time of the day, any day of the year.

Epic BGs are doing just fine.

Same as it always was.

Standard seven, but nice to know y’all contemplate it.

I wish Blizzard would do something to make Epic battleground great again. OP is right in that it is kinda dead. If getting rid of queue syncing helps, I’m all for it. If allowing us to queue as a raid helps, I’m also all for it. Just don’t neglect Epic BGs. I just want to see more players queuing up and have fun.

AFK was easy mode. You’re one of those fake intelligencia that’s no less a bully. Destroying you is gonna be much more fun.

You’re off the hook AFK. This one.

Okay. Find that rudeness in bgs post and see what I wrote. Some bro was crying in the shower because his feelings were hurt because someone told him to uninstall irl. I showed compassion. Look it up.

AVM does not condone dodging. We simply choose not to play with certain undesirables who make the game not fun. We are not toxic like those irredeemable @** monkeys and we are taking action to stop it.

I dont get dodging honestly.

Did you know you can hide names in BGE?

END THE CYCLE OF DODGE

Keep them hostage in your bg. Run around the map. Troll the bully.

You guys put too much emphasis on death in-game.

Time for you to forget the names. Who cares about Hunter#76

Dodging is only making it worse for you.

STAND YOUR GROUND

UNTIL DEATH

Moss I have explained this already. AVM does not dodge. We tactically avoid to de-incentivize bullies. If they have nobody to play with, they will stop playing. We are also setting a standard of behavior and telling them that being mean is not okay.

It has nothing to do with losing or deaths. AVM welcomes a fair fight and we are always good sports and well rounded if we ever lose which we don’t because we are the top premade and have the most skilled players in the game.

This is why we offer special packages to new comers who wish to have a 100% win rate. @pugs(most likely you) whisper me in game using promo code Meso-no-dogdedy-dodge and we will get you that 100% win rate you deserve.

I doubt this. EBG enjoyers are a special breed.

AVM has been in the EBG breeding business for years and we know how to handle them. Trust me. Moss I’d like you to join us. Let me prove how skilled we are. Granted we might be in queue for an hour depending on who is hunting us and what means we have to go to to tactically avoid but I promise you that the games you play with us will be, dare I say, epic?

AVM is the next comm I want to try with, but I can’t do… tactical avoidance…

When theres a comm whos ready to take down BSG, I’ll join them.

Epic BGS are doing well, but there are some selfish griefers dodging. Everyone knows about the AVM situation, and it’s just terrible.

The lengths these people abusing the queue system are willing to go to in order to avoid anything resembling a fair game are as pathetic as they are impressive, lol.

I believe Blizzard needs to take the following two actions:

  1. Undoubtedly, optimize the matchmaking system to eliminate premade
  2. For those initial players who have already joined the game during the 2-minute preparation phase, increase the penalties if they leave. Their departure almost directly results in a negative gaming experience for another player who join mid-game, and remove 15-minute deserter debuff for mid-match joiners if they leave
