One side does it all the time. That’s pretty compelling.
Crying about wanting pvp but then terrain exploiting to be sure there’s little to no pvp. Camping Grave yards and more terrain exploiting. Such pvp.
Its better pvp than organizing a 40 man team to efficiently remove as much fighting as possible to run to an NPC. The jump is something we’ll have to just wait to see if it gets fixed, the arguments that its intended or not are both strong.
Go to youtube and search for classic wow horde premade.
You will see the nascent beginning. In the video he describes the old method of queuing. But in the description he describes the current method. They started on this method before we had to change ours. I guess that is why the discord guy described it as the Horde method of queuing.
I don’t know if this guy is the one who put together the group I saw at the beginning of the week. But he obviously found the method that works. You guys just found it before we did because your longer queues made the method we used impractical. So you found something more suitable.
Not quite.
In vanilla, Horde was the under-populated faction. They had the fast queues, and they were the ones who had the easy time putting together premades after Blizz turned off the 40 man raids.

If this is the video you’re referencing, its well over 2 months old now. And he deliberately described it as “scuffed” or unreliable. In that video he is saying he’s getting 10 people into his “premade.”
That was 2 months ago, many things have changed since then and I am still unaware of anything even remotely described as a “premade” available to Horde.
Honest quest though, if it was possible and reliable to do…don’t you think the Horde would be perusing that option with as much fervor if not more than the Alliance?
if it’s intended then the OG devs are goofballs, whatever they left is being exploited and ruining a once fun BG. I cannot wait for my rep to be done so I never have to deal with AV again unless I’m premading.
If my memory serves me well, in vanilla, new servers always opened with the current patch but not yet AQ.
Or maybe I’m wrong about that. Maybe we were all just too low a level to begin the gate opening quests and turn ins for AQ. I do know that once that happened, economies exploded and prices of things needed for the turn ins multiplied in price overnight.

Until then, i highly suggest getting a mage or a hunter to watch the spot. They can shut it down almost single handed.
I would keep those servers reroll only, no xfers.
The date is Dec 30, 2019. Given today is just Feb 1 2020, we are only 2 days past 1 month.
Yes, the name of the video is scuffed. In it he describes one method.
In the description he explains that the queuing method mentioned in the video is scuffed now tbh. But then (in the description) he describes a method that works better for Horde.
I rolled on a server that was released [01/08/2007] just before TBC [01/16/2007] and the gates were closed. All other content was open/available.
So your memory is correct.
I think that just like the Alliance, some Horde would eagerly pursue it, others would not.
Editing to say - first they would have to know it existed. No one can eagerly pursue something if they don’t know it exists.
In the end we are all just people trying to have fun. Given winning is usually more fun than losing, many people would choose to pursue it.
I love these kinda of response. No one hunter or mage can’t stop it… maybe if only 1 was doing it. But its NEVER one person… you just named 2 classes that can’t self heal to prevent 5+ people jumping an extremely easy spot w/o aggro’n the archers.

You mean permanently no transfers? I think that transfers after 6 months might be okay - as long as they kept population caps in place. No one can transfer in to a full server,
And on, at least, the PvP servers, each faction would have to have it’s own cap.
Thanks for the confirmation, Birta.
It’s always a team. This is why I said I’m reporting 5+ players nearly every game.
Wunderland,
If we do not even try to plug the chokes that we very well know exist, then we are largely to blame for them coming in. Alliance does not deserve a base that can be defended with only NPC’s. So we should put at least a small defense team there before we ask Blizz to change stuff. Include a healer in the defense team.
The biggest reason we have difficulty at Frostwolf is because Horde sends defenders. If we care about Horde being in our base, then we need defenders. Many Alliance don’t want to defend. They often want either a fast win or a fast loss. So we leave holes all over our base. It seems silly to ask blizzard to defend what we will not even attempt to defend.
every server i played on was horde dominant.
100% NAILED IT!
There is nothing wrong with the map, it’s absolutely a situation of people who do not want to put forward any kind of effort…
To put this into actual perspective; these people are so lazy that they’re not even willing to sit in front of a computer screen to do virtual battle Vs other players doing the exact same thing because it’s not efficient enough for them.
95% of these players are in BG’s for the wrong reason… They’re in BG for gear instead of being there for the FUN of doing the BG’s.
It’s that way with most of the game too, many players seem to be so obsessed with gear that they forget the point of PLAYING a video game…
To have fun is the point of a video game; different people have fun in different ways obviously, but when your only focus is character power increases then maybe they’re playing the wrong video game… If that’s all they care about Modern Wow might be more in line with what they’re looking for…
The only caveat to that is Modern WoW’s class designs are so bad and un-fun that I don’t blame anyone for not enjoying it.

well except that the horde start as close or closer to our people as we do.
