meanwhile the private servers running the original game don’t lag with 12,000 operating on 1/1000th the $$$$$$$ using potato hardware (by comparison)

Yeah… No changes won’t work in this situation.
Letting only 120 or so people into wg on a realm that has 20,000 ppl on it… So that they can stand there for the entire duration afk and automatically win defense for the 100th time in a row because the opposing faction doesn’t exist on their realm is what #nochanges looks like.

If it were up to me, the 1 sided realms would never get a wintergrasp. You wanted to own a realm, you got it. Now there’s no one to fight. That means wintergrasp never opens for business.
“you have 99 bad ideas for every good one.”
-That’s as far as I read. If you want people to actually read what you’re going to type or take you seriously; it would be best not to put ignorant drivel like that in front of it.

and we’re all very glad its not up to you, as you have 99 bad ideas for every good one.
WG should not be instanced if its possible to host large numbers on it without lagging out the server as a whole, alot of people remember fondly having the underdog buff one shotting the opposite faction, give them that, if its not workable this time around, just do the instanced version then, but if its not instanced, you best be nerfing the ability to insta-win WG with the old fly into the heart of the enemy base and win in 2 minutes technique.

Yeah, the only thing they had to sacrifice was information security.

The point was that blizzard is easily capable of doing 10X better with 10X better security. if a couple of guys in their garage can out do blizzard with potatoes then blizzard is clearly slacking.

Personally I hope it is unchanged. I had way to much fun ganking people outside the entrance to VoA back in the day as a Destruction lock and I want to relive those experiences.
This isn’t Blizzard though. Its Acti-Blizz.
NO CHANGES!!! If you do not like it the way it was move on to retail!!!

Just for reference, during WOTLK it was instanced such that you had to queue upon crossing the boundary and were ejected. I imagine this will remain in place as it was in 3.3.
Considering the size of some servers; it has to be instanced.
Actually, I have no idea how they can execute WG accurately to it’s original portrayal considering how unbalanced some servers are with factions. On top of having to make it instanced, it will likely fall short of many peoples fond memories of it.
Why instance it ? It was working fine : if you were not registered for Wintergrasp and tried to enter you were ejected.
It was supposed to be a faction objective not a new simple BG + it was instanced on retail because there was not point to fight for it anymore.
But, i wonder how is it gonna work with the layering ?
Just like it was. One “instance” with equality caps on the fight. Which means basically one sided still, but that’s how it was.

I find it amazing that we have a community council that evolved from a player base calling wow the wow killer and every major implementation in classic is based off of retail including it’s engine yet there isn’t a single good idea in this thread. I guess in doing so you guys made it easier for the new company to see who was being carried and spent the lackluster of wow farming gdkps which is boosting on steroids. Keep up the good work guys and lets continue to not only go in the same direction but offer politcal advice after thriving off of reddit posts and user guides when in reality if you knew better the purpose of any form of development was never based off a collaboration of ideas because quite honestly you’re making more difficult for microsoft who is actually mad at the game and incurring further toxicity.
It’s not the job of the unpaid video player to fix problems especially when the company turned a blind eye to them for almost a year, and I’d even say that of the unpaid CC.
Some of us warned about Wintergrasp and faction balance stuff months ago when something could have been done. Now we have what we have.
Although I see you are bored enough again to be browsing the forums for a game you don’t even play. Most of the pointless insult throwers from Retail have gone away.
I am not against this and I think its actually a good idea. But I doubt they will do it. That and how would they manage which faction can enter the raid for your server.
Ahh, the days of old Wintergrasp. It was a total slugfest with near capacity and the opportunity to score some real conquests. Sadly most young players weren’t able to experience the epic battle.
