Majority of servers had the Horde corpse camping to oblivion for a solid month after the release of phase 2, causing people to quit the game and making the world virtually unplayable, yet the Horde came out of it unscathed.
Now the Alliance can’t even queue as a premade without the Horde QQing and Blizzard jumping in to hold their hands.
Where was The Alliance’s support during the initial release of phase 2?
#Neverforgetbrm2019
when they rolled out bg’s early.
Only to punish us in support for the Horde
One is what happens on a PvP server, although it is pretty obvious increased server sizes and population balance issues blew the activity up quite a bit.
The other was an exploit designed to circumvent the imposed limitation on a battleground.
If world PvP were being done under exploitative conditions, I’m sure Blizzard would have responded to it. In fact they not only moved BGs up in the phases but tried to entice people with free transfers to less populated servers. They might not have been successful in addressing the issues, but they certainly did try something. It’s simply just not true to pretend Blizzard has ignored the issues Alliance have faced, the difference is one was an exploit and the other is poor planning/lack of vision.
If bgs were in support of the overwhelmed faction they would not have been xrealm so we could have had revenge and rivalry fights, instead they protected the overwhelming side from revenge by making it cross realm which furthered the imbalance as the overwhelmed faction was given no satisfaction and no reason to queue up other than the grind.
I would assume most blizzard employees play horde and if they loose 1 game of AV in a month they complain to their supervisors that the devs need to totally nerf the alliance side of things. gtfo blizzard.
Horde will always get the special treatment. Heck alliance doesn’t even have a lot of quests on a 1/3 Or even more in ashenvale.
Wow. The phase 2 PTSD is still going strong.
So because you had a temporary disadvantage for a few weeks back in November 2019… you deserve a permanent advantage in BGs for the remainder of classic?
mkay guy
Oh? Horde special treatment? You mean like having to wait an hour+ for a BG queue, so you go and farm honor another way? yeah ok.
Oh, so imbalanced servers could continue to have camped flight-masters and dungeon portals?
Sounds like an awesome idea!
do alliance players honestly feel they can’t take 40 unorganized players and take on 40 unorganized players? Is that too hard for them that the honestly need a group for?
And when they changed to a 25% diminishing return on honor.
There is a difference when the 40 horde players are there to PvP and the people who don’t have already left the queue for being too long. Alliance players join for PvE and rep, so they farm and afk freely. You really can’t compare 40 horde pugs to 40 alliance pugs due to the difference in objective when they join. 10 PvP players on alliance can’t carry 30 pugs. We proved that we we could still use premades. Now it gets worse. Roll alliance for an opportunity to try to get an alliance pug team to win in AV. You’ll go back horde after one battle.
I just got back into the game and I’ve already been spawn camped 10-15 times. It goes both ways, stop acting like a victim
reroll lol ez fix but then u have queue problems
Also, its only a 10% faction difference. It would barely make a difference in world questing and you guys have shorter queue times.
It would have promoting bonding for the overwhelmed faction, and you would have seen more of the overwhelmed faction grouping up and fighting back instead of just quitting. All we can do now in wpvp is to group up and watch the overwhelming faction run until they have 5x numbers again. Being overwhelmed with no satisfaction, and no ability for revenge, made bgs not matter to any one that isnt grinding ranks.
The horde have far more people that care about pvp. The alliance has more parents, children playing with parents, people over 50, and people that pick human priest over dwarf. So yeah, when you tbag some one all excited about getting a kill, odds are pretty good that its a 12 year old or a mom in her snuggie.
You know… if you guys had just quietly queued together and made the best out of what AV’s you got cobbled into… Blizzard never would have stepped in. That wasn’t good enough for you though, you guys just flushed the queues over and over again until you got almost your full group in together… leaving a wake of broken half empty AV’s behind you.
What did you think Blizzard was going to do? You were literally breaking the game. You have nothing to blame but your own greed.
