why are you qing up if you dont care? all these toxic pplz in casual bgs that have no care to work as a team, or even worse intentionally try to flame / troll when other people are trying to win / offer strategy. every time i give bfa another chance, the people i group with remind me why this expansion is so miserable(bad luck?) .
i dont mind losing, i just want some good pvp… good teamfights and coordination. and i dont wanna go through the whole RBG process… i like the casual pick up groups.(well i thought i did-lol)
This has become extremely frustrating for me as well. The biggest problem is the amount of time that is wasted in BGs where people don’t even bother trying - they’re really only there to attempt to kill other players and hope others carry them. I just wish there was a way to prevent this from happening but those methods often get abused and hurt players that are really trying (I.e. creating black lists of people not to group with).
It’s really sad when the community inflicts suffering on itself. Why would you queue to deliberately lose? If you wanted to simply attack other players why not enable War Mode and stand in front of the opposing faction’s city? Why waste everybody’s time? It still amazes me that there’s still people that think that their damage/kills matter in a BG, not to mention that honor/HKs have any value in today’s WoW.
But I understand a win is needed to achieve a reward. However that doesn’t mean the 9 thru 39 other people in the BG are doing their best to win.
Also, I understand when people say to premade. I’m in 2 communities (on either faction) where there is a pretty stark difference in terms of community feel, size of community, and number of people present/willing/friendly towards grouping. It’s interesting.
But i dont know anyone! Ok, I know maybe 3 people and they raid, not pvp :S
I guess randos it is!
If only there were levels of bgs you could queue for:
-random
-I know about and will try the objective
-rated
I’m not great so rated is out of the question, but I’m not an idiot, too when oit comes to how to win a bg, and you often get stuck with these people who don’t care in randoms
He probably means he wishes it was, but there are so many players who would rather sit on their asses and whine on the one base we have than effectively help. it COULD be fun…I understand his grief, I join with all the hope in the world (and a grain or 2 of salt for it), but I play all Ally and I’ve learned to enjoy the moment - not the actual battle iteself - and dont EXPECT to win, though I actually make an effort. If we win, neat. if not, I still got more of a thrill thinking against another player here and there than i’d ever get in a dungeon.
it’s fun approx 10% of the time and not fun at all getting 3 capped on a btg while your team fights in the grass over there, but i’ll still queue up.
Really? I feel like the opposite is true… The rewards are so meh that there is no incentive to win? You just go and try and top the meters.
I think these two kinda contradict each other… If you don’t mind losing I assure you there is plenty of good PvP to be found. Lots of bad PvP too but just ignore that. I like to win, probably too much, but losses really don’t bug me too much. If you know it’s a loss try some crazy stuff like 1v2ing at stables to try and get an extra node or solo defending for as long as you can vs 3 people. There is good PvP to be found, you just can’t let the loss get to ya.
Also finding even one good buddy to que with makes things 100% more tolerable. Your can s**t talk each other, coordinate random startegies. Doesn’t take a full premade to have more fun.
