Seriously?

9+ minute queue for Random Battlegrounds - got into an Eye with 14 DPS, no tank, no healer.

This is a waste of our time, seriously.

Just hold the queue open until a reasonable distribution of tank/healer/dps is found.

Popping us into a trash run like this, under-strength anyway, is ridiculous.

Fight it out and requeue? Probably at least 10 minutes plus the requeue time with no guarantee of a better result than this one.

Have you tried just having shorter queue times and only joining games with healers and tanks?

That should fix the issue nicely.

Do you have any idea how random battleground queues work?

just que for a random bg and go around killing randoms in korthia gg ez

Given the general quality of responses I think I can be forgiven not assuming sarcasm over imbecility.

My posts are teeming with both. I forgive you

:slight_smile:

And characters to allow me to post that.

Given today’s internet this is fair actually.

Of course we know how random battleground queues work. You click join queue and get placed in to temple of kotmogu 90% of the time with no way to blacklist that garbage map.

fyi- I haven’t played WoW in 2+ months though. “PvP vendors returning in Shadowlands!”, really missed the mark by not having equal ilvl conquest gear; won’t be returning until the proper vendors return.

I’m almost at 1000 games played on temple, I’m excited!

Your hate for it is wrong. Best map. Nowhere for little hordies to run away and hide, I can still find you!

I used to feel that way about Deepwind gorge. Man oh man, I REALLY dislike how they redesigned that map. They should have added full blown quest chains with the thousands of miles it takes to get anywhere on that map. They need to bring back the og Deepwind Gorge to random battleground and put that “updated” version in rated battlegrounds. It’s way too huge of a map.

There is a much better place for that map than rated: the garbage.

Rated are all 10 man. That map would be insane with only 10 players.

I do think I’d love to see 25-man Rated “Epic” BGs though. That’d rock if you could ever get 25 post-millenials to sit still long enough to get a group together.

Soooooo, what the h*** did they exactly need to redesign it for?? Man that very first mid-fight was always so much fun, and then trying to figure out what lane the cart snatcher would run down was an absolute great time!

Because we were having fun the way it was.

You know BlizZard hates fun, right?

I understand your hate for gorge, but why do you hate temple?

The only thing they hate more than fun, is us.

I would say it is a really 1 sided fate of a map. It’s sometimes fun when you are winning; but usually not worth the 7min queue for a 2sec victory of no action when enemy team gives up after first fight and all orbs and mid is acquired. The flip side of that is very awful; team gave up and everyone is just avoiding going inner sanctum much less mid, and generally you are waiting the 30secs out it takes for winners to win only to sit in another 7min queue which is a double loss.

I guess that makes sense, I was more thinking about the fundamentals of the map rather than the experience.
