Solution to the Alterac Valley issue

Insert a second AV BG. Being the original with the epic battles.

Then both the instant gratification players can retain this current version.

And us classic/vanilla players can have the one with the epic battles.

Blizzard can save face.

Everyone wins…

AV usually lasts a good 20-30 mins in bfa, ive seen longer too. its not an all out race to the end

#nochanges FTW

Queue at the same time with 4-5 other players who want a long game and just turtle–Boom, instant long AV battle. Had one last night where ~15 horde stayed back and it turned into an hour long brawl.

You obviously have never experienced the original AV

If you did you would be in love with it

PvP problems have PvP solutions. In this case, the problem is that both factions are avoiding PvP in the battleground. If one side makes the choice to force the issue, the problem goes away.

Thats not how the original AV worked… it had landmines, world bosses that would slug it out or whipe the other team, collect dwarf spines and orc teeth, etc.etc.
It was awesome

I have a solution to AV, zero honor for the losing side. This means the Horde will be doing everything they can to stop the Alliance from winning, thus forcing PVP AV.

It wasnt just a turtle… it was an epic battle

Get out of my head. Best of both worlds, compromise. This wouldn’t be hard for them to do at all. +1 OP

Pro Tip: The word Solution caught my eye. I believe GMs have suggested to offer “solutions” on forums for changes. Maybe if people took a different approach instead of “demands” it’ll get more traction. Lol I have my doubts but worth a shot.

They would just queue WSG

Unfortunately a lot of modern gaming is basically ‘do it in five minutes or dont bother’. Fun is no longer a reward in itself.

I’d prefer they just release AB. I’ve always enjoyed AB more than AV and WSG.

Honestly this would work, but i still think the 1.12 needs way less honor given so wsg can be a viable option to rank in.

Thank you, let’s hope Blizz takes notice of it

How hard would it be to add a button asking the player which version of the BG they want to play.

Exactly …

HA… same was implied about classic in general, pretty sure it’s doing well.

And then AV would be empty and unqueued and everybody would be playing WSG
