Like most I work full time and do not have much free time. When I do get to play some wow and spend it doing PvP in pug epics always see the premades. Which is why I am going to let my sub lapse I might come back in few months. No you cant have my stuffs and Blizz does not care about it so I wont feed them any more money. I just move to a game that is actually fair and fun to play. Nothing says fair like sync players ruining epic pug games. Blizz will do something only after many people continue to leave their game

true @Enthegon.

@Darthstar: how does cross faction unranked pvp solve the epic bg premades problem?

because it messes up their q sync duh

Not really, that has been proven wrong by sync exploiters in BG blitz as well. Sure, it will make it “harder” but they will still pull it off.

ok, cool.

But, isnt it already unranked cross faction pvp as of now?

With 11.0.7, there’s cross faction groups, so a group can have members of both factions and they join the queue for whichever faction the leader is from.

But the faction isn’t randomized like it is for Blitz.

If you wanted to design a system to wreck queue sync communities, you would use the system that is used for Blitz.

Then each group would have the chance to be placed on either faction.

As it is, as of 11.0.7, factions don’t matter, but it can still be gamed, because it isn’t randomized.

Same here. Just a reminder to enter the reasons in the Cancel Subscription form. I had filled up the textbox with my long list of issues with Epic BG - maybe that would increase the chance of them getting fixed?

100%. No one would bother playing again if they don’t believe there is a chance for them to win.

For random Epic BG, my ideal cross faction setup would be complete randomisation that would break up the 5-person party as well.

At the same time, add rated Epic BG if possible. Otherwise, create new raid party battle mode for Premade to fight other premade.

Ty for explaining. Now i understand.

I hope blizz will make it like Blitz for epic BGs, meaning, make the factions randomized. That way, we won’t be in games versus premades anymore.

Their community service department is running on a skeleton crew if that.

So yeah i wouldn’t bet on it.

3 day average wait time for a ticket and most of the time you end up with a “template” response. Which is pretty much an automated response.

There must be some technical reason why they haven’t just replaced the random matchmaker code with the RBG & Blitz coding.

I remember there used to be bugs with people respawning at the wrong graveyards in some circumstances, perhaps they haven’t ironed all those wrinkles out yet.

Or perhaps the 11.0.7 change is simply one step on the path to full cross faction play to get people used to the idea.

There are certainly still some people who are resistant to breaking down the faction divide fantasy.

I’m hopeful that Blizz will eventually solve this problem, but yes, i agree. Looks like 11.0.7 is in a step to a right direction.

As for the players who think it spoils the faction fantasy, this problem is going break the pvp community eventually. Which is worse.

The leaders already have an agreement on how who has lead will work. :wink: We’ve been working with and play against each other often. Even if someone has lead, communities are going to listen to the premade leaders over pugs any day. So if the pugs somehow still manage to get lead, and/or call for a zerg they are going alone. Premades are going to keep doing our strats. :smiley:

Does that mean that you guys do not drop queues anymore when you’re up against that particular community you don’t like? I’m not up to date with premade dramas.

Hey plum, how’s it goin buddy?

How about you? Do you still dodge?

Hey Ruthlessbro, how’s it goin buddy?
