Please fix BG Que Times, Especially AV

BG que times on horde are absolutely rediculous. Waiting 2 hours for an AV que is sometimes impossible to do. Most people dont have time to actively play for 2-6 hours during the day to finish 2 AV games. Having to sit by your PC to make sure it doesn’t get d/c’d from being afk or leaving anytime near the que time so you dont miss que. Blizzard please create battle groups and match high pop realms with other high pop realms or develop other ways of reducing que times. Retail does this well with allowing horde to que as alliance and the other way around. Sometimes #somechanges are a good thing for everyone involved.

Downside of joining the bigger pvp faction. Dislike qeue times? Reroll. You wouldn’t have this problem if more Horde did exactly that.

Nah. our queues are fine. Take part in the 99.9999% of the game outside of AV while you wait.

LoLing at the 2 single post alts at odds in the first 2 posts of the thread, the alliance character having joined the forum less than 5 minutes prior. My tinfoil is humming.

Are you trying to indicate that Zamu’s statement is somehow wrong?

You should be able to play whatever race/side you want to play on. Blizzard can easily fix the issue. They created battlegroups back in vanilla/bc to help with this exact issue. There are other ways to help fix it as well without having to reroll.

It would be the absolute weirdest case of astroturfing I’ve ever seen. A guy writing up a post just to tell himself to deal with it…

And you can do exactly just that. BG qeue times are a reflection of population that engages on BG’s. Like I said, if you dislike waiting that much just reroll. You can’t have both the numbers and the comfort of short qeue times.

You can if blizzard implements fixes for the issue. They wont try to fix anything if nothing is brought up.

There’s nothing to fix

If you want to play AV more than once a day, play Alliance.

If you want to win AV more than once a month, play Horde.

Should’ve rolled Alliance if you cared enough about queues for AV.

I haven’t queued AV in months. Too boring.

AB had instant queues for horde Tuesday night and 4 minute queues for alliance. That wait time doesn’t seem like it needs fixing. Does it to you?

AV is AV, the trade off for winning is a long queue. Just queue during raids or whatever.

the horde screwed themselves on AV ques because they whined and cried about losing HALF of their games.

now you win 99% of your games but u know what. so you gotta wait 2+ hours.

it’s only going to get worse on July 28th too when blizzard makes it even more pointless for alliance to que for AV.

you dug your own grave and you dug it deep. enjoy it.

There are two LINES and you got into the line with far more people in it (i did too initially), yes the long line is much cooler and the short line is all DORKS, but being in the short line is …well …shorter… reroll team Dork if you want a shorter line.

Alright in order for a cue to form there are two teams the alliance and horde. You need 40 players per av que. So the faction with the lower number of players cueing sets the number of ques. The que times are fine and not a problem in need of fixing que for wsg or ab.

How exactly to fix the queue time to BG restaurant when there are too many Horde customers and some Ally food in the kitchen?

You do. You also have to take the good with the bad. It’s your choice, not Blizzards.
