Queue sync killed in 11.0.7?

PVP Battlegrounds
1

Unrated PvP will now be cross faction! 11.0.7 Update PTR Development Notes:

2

Na, it wont kill que sync, you’re now able to q it up with your horde friends regardless of faction. this is actually pretty huge

3

Hmm. Reading it it just says cross faction groups I guess. How does it decide which side to place them on?

4

Probably group leader’s faction. But I don’t think they have officially killed the faction barrier in unrated pvp with that change.

5

This change may empower Queue Sync more?

It may, but all in all, it WILL be less lop-sided imo

7

How so? Because their will be more premades? lol

8

Perhaps, but your chances of being on the winning side is greater. Not by much, but greater

Holy crap, they’re listening. Being able to queue cross-faction is so nice.

Also buffs to bad racials. Not that many of them are likely to be amazing still, but better than nothing. Darkflight speed stacking might be crazy, and velf racial was already powerful.

This is dope.

I literally just faction transfered most of my characters to play with my friends less than 20 minutes ago. wtaf

IMO, this will solidify people playing where they feel fits them best. This will help communities.

Hmm!!!
Will we FINALLY be able to stop seeing the usuals complaining endlessly about queue syncing? Or will they just start complaining more because it’ll be even easier to be able to queue with their friends?

I’m assuming the group lead’s faction will determine the faction they play with?

An interesting change and hopefully a lead-in to cross faction unrated BGs.

I like that thought. I am pro-communities that offer genuine community.

Lmao the coping in this thread already.

It will likely make syncing harder and sabotage easier cause you’ll split the premade onto the enemy team which I imagine in some cases will opt to sabotage their pug team so that the people they are on disc with can win.

Effectively wasting their own time but that wasnt very valuable anyway if you’re syncing. But maybe they’ll get tired of that quickly.

Group leader faction probably. If that is the case, then this changes nothing other than allowing q-syncers to do cross faction queues together.
