I’m having a blast. If it’s so bad where you can’t do anything, just join a 5 man group on LFG so you can phase into their shard. Or get into a raid group and do the elite quests real quick, leave raid and maybe you get lucky to stay in that shard.

The sharding is trash, has been since its inception. Bottom line though, Alliance still has the buff so there are clearly more Horde. Just because you haven’t seen them doesn’t mean they aren’t there, they just aren’t part of your shard.
Funny I see plenty of both
That is actually what I did, and improved our suicide run efficiency by 5x. However, we still weren’t able to really control the area enough to do the quest in the a wholesome way.
It was still only 5 of us, in a WQ zone populated by countless alliance.
We used a strategy of group spawning and killing fringe outliers to get the quest done.
Unfortunately ever since Blizz nerfed WQ’s groups it’s really hard to find a group, took almost 15 minutes for us to form just five.
Reparations are being repaid in tears

turn it off.
I have run into this as well. I once shared 3 times in a minute. I was just killed, got a group together and was going for revenge, then the little blip and all horde disappear, only npc’s.
We disband then boom I am surrounded with no friends around.
Those blips happen too often some days. Sometimes in mid fight. I wish they at least didn’t happen while in combat.

It’s fine, there were a good 2 full sized horde raid groups taking advantage of this the other day.
I’m sure most know by now.
So why are you griping? You’re getting plenty of “dynamic gameplay”.
This isn’t the real problem.
The REAL problem is the atrocious sharding and phasing, and how servers all of a sudden apparently can’t handle a 25v25 battle without having a stroke.
It causes some raid groups to be nearly uncounterable because even if you have a group that matches them, the server sets itself on fire half the time.

Oh and you can fight camping groups, y’know that right?
Last week there was a MASSIVE Alliance group camping everyone on the Shattered Span in Nazmir. All the Horde in the zone thought there was no stopping them, there were at least 30-40 of them.
Eventually we hauled together a 40 man raid group (ty to my guildies for coming too) and stomped the life out of them. It was absolutely incredible.
No group is invincible unless you flat out don’t try.
He said they weren’t in raids to do quests. They’re in raids to camp Horde.
My bad but either way, Horde do the same thing so at that point the only thing that can be said is “Warmode happened in Warmode.”

I don’t get this. I play both factions and have zero problems getting assaults done on either side with war mode on.

So…war happened in warmode.
If he was complaining about the absurdly broken sharding and phasing, he’d have a point though.
it’s absolutely ruining war mode
I don’t think so. This whole thing is showcasing how bad of an idea this is. I’m only seeing the same complaints that we saw when there were PvP servers.
Its not a lie man. The horde greatly outnumber alliance in warmode. Yes maybe when you are out and about and you dont see much horde, but they are probably just sitting in dazaralor or wherever. Go to boralus with warmode on and youll see that there isnt much people there. Turn it off and boralus is insanely packed. Where as on my horde toons dazalor is packed with warmode on.

Turn off Warmode while doing incursions.
