The honour system made this game unplayable for levelers

Except of course, that’s not what I said and you apparently need to improve your reading comprehension.

Ok, bye now.

The fault lies completely with Blizzard. They went entirely overboard on the population cap of these servers. Azeroth is really not that big of a place. When you smash 10k people into something that was designed for 3k (tops) - you create issues that we have never seen before.

Problem is. I don’t see a good way out of this. Other than release a BG asap to give the PVPers an outlet.

So like I’ve said elsewhere my main is 57 … so ALMOST to 60 … was going to try to push for 60 this weekend … but well… nope.

So tonight, tried to play a bit. Rattle-Gore Server (Alliance)

Thorium Point - Camped - Flight point, between FP and BRM entrance, BRM entrance
Searing Gorge - Camped - Flight Point, between FP and BRM Entrance, Angel
Eastern Plaguelands - FP Camped
Hinterlands - FP Camped
BRD Entrance Camped
Mara Camped
ST Camped

By Dozens of horde - No fricken point in trying to play.

For how many days? 4 days? 3 days? That hardly counts, does it? Blizzard cannot keep changing their game every 2 days.

Sorry, but Classic is a copy of Vanilla, not a game to be constantly tweaked and improved on a daily basis.

PvE server. Problem solved.

PvP servers were at worst, 60% alliance to 40% horde and most were closer to 1:1 balance so that’s why you were not outnumbered all the time back then. I played then too and remember it was pretty balanced even as a horde player. These classic servers on the other hand are imbalanced because it’s commonly known that horde racials are OP in classic so the FOTM kiddies bee lined to the horde. Blizzard should have put faction restrictions at the start it really is their fault things are so out of balance.

yeah it is wrong, why do you want people to quit the game over being out numbered to the point that they cant do anything?

Is there a reason you didn’t level on a PVE (normal) server?
You can still do BGs on a PVE server, but without all of the hassle of getting ganked 24/7.
(And yes, Blizzard considers PVE servers normal servers).

We didn’t want to play on a PvE server. We just didn’t expect to be outnumbered 3:1. Also Horde almost never get ganked (without having backup), so it’s very much so a uniquely Alliance problem. Heartseeker is the only server where it’s swapped.

This will only be for a small minute of the overall lifespan of the game.

Advocate for BG’s to come out faster to give all those 60’s harassing you something to do than camp FP’s and high level zones for honor.

Lord know’s I’d rather WSG all day then spend most of my time in Searing Gorge hunting for alliance raids to kill…

Lol ever think of rolling on alliance for fun?

i have an idea and i know this will not be popular but layering put all players list say 55 and below in a leveling layer

They removed layers. And separating players in the manner means you invite a L60 into the leveling layer and they have unmatched power among the lower levels and cannot be touched.

Terrible idea.

Its bad, but im cool with it… It would be nice if Horde could show a modicum of integrity and not camp the instance entrances. But this is how it was, and how it shall be!

I killed 176 Horde this weekend, I am certain that frails in comparison to what other people ganking all weekend have.

the basic idea is good i would say just to keep leveling players from being victimised

Ganking has always been a part of the game… until blizzard changed that with Warmode.

What you’re asking for is essentially retail war mode for lower levels. Decaf.

I am willing to bet you are on a substantially dominate faction.
