Can you guys set up a queing system for classic and retail that address pre-mades?
This is terribly frustrating, it’s not fun anymore queuing into pre-mades CONSTANTLY.
It seems like an easy fix to make the game more enjoyable for EVERYONE.
Make your queuing system see that it the predominantly vast majority of players on one team 5+ are from the same sever, for core that team to que with the same Vast majority from same server on other team.
Visa versa, if the vast majority are solo que, merg those groups the same.
The BG game is not even playable, i have a 80% lose rate in bg over the last 3 days, 30 BG’s classic and real ALY and horde.
I que in and the teams against me are 90% pre-mades and they in voice chat and geared vrs alts and solo ques.
this has been going on for years, can you guys please address this, it seems like a super easy fix as I pointed out.
GOSH, this is draining.
Everyone up vote this so blizzard sees this and addresses it.
EDIT: Post links of your screen shots of how screwed up this system is, make a scene…
There used to be like 5 threads a day on this. However there are REALLY not that many premades around anymore, it’s almost all pugs.
Nothing changed with the queues over those threads so it’s unlikely now.
What BGs (esp WSG and AB) are filled with is Naxx geared players looking to have fun PVPing with their gear and on the opposite end you get the fresh 60s who get sometimes 1 shot by the Naxx geared players.
You must be queueing at the wrong times or something when there are still premades playing or you are just really unlucky.
Honestly, I don’t feel like naxx geared dps hit that much harder than Phase 3 pvpers. The main difference is that rogues seem to have a lot more energy now and are even more annoying to deal with.
I agree that you don’t really need a full premade to win and even a 5 man of geared players in Discord makes a significant difference.
There are plenty of 3 man teams that go into WSG and win the game for their pug teams so especially in that BG I agree.
As for the other reply mentioning the gear, yes I will agree that BWL geared players can still destroy fresh 60s. It is just worse with T3 IMO. Which makes sense… and many more people seem to be very well geared in those BGs these days. It’s more my opinion on that… then on the other end you get the undergeared fresh TBC alts like the new hunters and warlocks. As for the premades specifically which is what the OP posted about they are fewer for sure or there would be more threads again.
I’m seeing them CONSTANTLY, (more so WSG and to a less extent AB) maybe people are getting tired of fighting Blizzard for change here on the forums, and even some of the puggers just left the game???
Geared up Premades and Twinks are extremely obnoxious, they are right up there with gankers BUT their doucheness is the “Kobayashi Maru” that makes normal players better. These players only want to play when they can NOT lose, they LOVE having an insurmountable advantage. It tells you all you need to know about them as players and people. Just feel sorry for them…
That’s not to say there aren’t premades, but there are definitely fewer and you can pretty much predict when they are on. I only really see them on like Sundays and evenings after raids are done. Also on the BG weekends.
T1 Armor is actually superior in terms of Energy because its got the 5PC +10 bonus that really changes how you can play in terms of builds and openers, and what specs can be practical vs impractical without it.
ZG Trinket and Tea are the only thing we can do to expand our energy flow, T3 KINDA does that but its RNG on crits only of your special abilities like hemo; and not reliable like T1, Trinket or Tea.
Odds are you’re encountering rogues with Tea, or Trinkets, and its somewhat common now because getting the ZG trinket is only a matter of time.
