World of Warcraft®

“...He said he's sick of noobs in Tol Barad. Blizzard, you should honor his wishes and give que's out to better geared players first.”

“I just did a head count --- 2-3 groups of horde (defenders) at IG... Went to slag cause no one would answer my simple question - how many horde at the other nodes.... 2-3 groups at WV .... so I went back to IG... Alliance had taken it... so…”

“*sigh* ok so i love pvp but i cant pick a class. i love how mages pvp but when i try it, well, lets says its not "2 peas in a pod" kind of stuff. then i try a warrior for arms and i cant find a priority system and i tend to die faster a man…”

“I have all the gear you can buy with honor. Can you purchase gems like you could in wrath. I don't see that vendor anymore. Is there anything else you can buy with honor?”

“Anyone else having the problem of not gaining rating when you win? or losing alot of rating when you won or lost, because i won WSG last night at 1994 raiting...then dropped down to 1976 after winning that WSG....then next game we lost and …”

“Whats up with all of the speed hackers I have been seeing lately in lowbie BGs? In WSG they are so fast that I'm just getting past our GY at the start and the guy has already picked up our flag. What can be done about this? If you open a ti…”

“You seriously have no fix for this? Either let us play horde vs horde or this game is pretty much done. I cant see myself playing longer than a month or so longer(btw I'm talking bout my 85 mage). I can put in a game into my xbox and be pla…”

“This will probably seem like QQ, but why are the people from the higher population factions being punished. To start off : There is currently no afk removal function similar to the actual BG's. So if somebody get's in and decides to go afk …”

“How blizzard thinks there is even a slight amount of fairness in capturing TB when everything is equal except for the number of locations the defender has to hold (1) compared to the attacker (all three) is beyond me. Have you guys actually…”

“I hope your considering different suggestions on changes that need to be made to tol barad so you atleast have a chance at winning instead of the defending faction just zerging around in a big circle without having to actually have more tha…”

“Delete”

“I feel like starting a new alt and was wondering which classes/specs people are having the most fun with. Not asking for the most overpowered or the easiest the play just the ones people enjoy most.”

“?”

“I am so not a PvPer and this is the only way I can think to contact an ally when I don't know their name. Sorry about tagging you with Corruption too soon. Felt like that was a jerk move on my part to tag you in Outland before you claimed t…”

“Diablo 3 gets delayed a day! /gasp”

“Funny. The TF2 community complaining about how their game is turning into yours. Now I've read a few comments made by some of you who made a jab at FPS games when arguing against intra-faction BGs. Hmm, why don't we extrapolate the idea? No…”

“Seriously, how many threads do we need about Tol Barad, Magi, and gear prices? Just pick one and stick with it, geez!”

“In essence the idea of Tol Barad is a great idea, it sounds fun on paper and sounds like it could be very competitive, however on my server that is not the case. I am from magtheridon-US and on my server one faction controls Tol Barad the m…”

“There are 8 BG's in the 85 pool and I'm quite tired of being chain pulled into Eye of the Storm. In Sc2 and Wc3 Blizzard has given us the option to take select maps out of the random queue; why isn't this feature in WoW? We Should have the …”

“the Queue slots should go to the players with higher Rated BG' ratings that way its more competetive and people inside will actualy fight for the win... not just mess around and screw the whole faction over :(”

“So from recent changes we've seen people are willing to go pretty far to get 1800 honor. What if there were Daily pvp objectives that awarded similar magnitudes of honor for completing world PvP objectives? (ie. raid cities, kill x # of pla…”

“Can we please have an underwater BG where players can use their seahorse mounts? Pretty please?”

“What level do you have to be to enter EotS? My alt is in its 40s and can enter it, but I think I may of been able to in my 30s. Anyone know for sure what it is now?”

“So in wc3 i recall there was a way to "Thumbs Down" certain maps when playing random which reduced (or it might have completely removed i don't know) the chance of you being put into the maps you gave the thumbs down too. I think this would…”

“Ok new concept. What if BG was just about fun and teamwork? What if you win to just win and not to get gear or mounts or any of that sort of stuff? Would you still participate? So much of BG has been ruined because it's always revolved arou…”

“Just looted the Shadowfang level 19 twink sword from SFK last night and just put it on the AH on Frostwolf. I'm currently selling it for 25kg to a determined twink buyer. To put into perspective on just how rare this item really is, the dro…”

“So what's the reasoning for the 90 sec wait at the beginning of a BG?I can see, like 20 once everyone gets in, but 90 is pretty steep. That's a lot of downtime. I realize its a minor argument, but in a day and age when we dont even have to …”

“To state the problem in short, the defense in every TB simply has to run in a giant circle to win. Allow me to begin with a comparison, in basketball they added the shot clock to prevent teams from just defending and holding the ball. In fo…”

“Putting aside all my gripes about what Rated BGs are opposed to what I'd been under the impression they would be, the most important problem I see in the current implementation of Rated BGs is that they are unrewarding. They are in the game…”

“Now now, before you go " Oh god not another thread" though you will just in spite, this isn't adressing the balancing issues. We are all awear of it. Moving on... What my big problem with Tol Barad is simply... its design. It really feels l…”

“Developers can claim that TB is balanced, but the consensus in the community is that it isn't. It is far to difficult to stop the massive defense zerg. Rather than mindlessly complaining, I have a few suggestions. Change the beginning game …”

“-- Why can you only queue for 1 at a time? :( Before you could enter for like.. Warsong and Arathi (I'm on my 32 Priest). It says "You can only be queued for one battleground at a time."”

“Ok getting tired of TB being so one sided. Why not have it if you control two at the end you win along with a complete cap. As it stands the defending team only has to zerg the tower last hit to win. Also you could make the siege engines ab…”

“Id like to say that im pretty unhappy with this new honor/conquest system,simple because its pretty unfair do to the fact that tol barad gives 1800 honor ( ok now 360) and bgs 45(90), including that conquest which is a system that to gear u…”

“GM or someone look into this new bug in rated BGs we have won 2 in a row and have recieved conquest points, but still get a loss, and no rating when we won both 3-0 caps, and still stuck at my starting rating before both wins. Please have a…”

“Is it just me, or are Demolishers moving extremely fast? There's nothing we could have done to catch them while on foot. They were able to reach each gate before we got more than a few hits off. We won, due to this "bug". Still seems a litt…”

“I thought it was just a glitch, but I have seen it happen repeatedly where the Alliance siege engine disappears when Workshop is taken, but the Horde siege engine persist after Workshop is taken. This creates a large imbalance in even games…”

“So I know that Blizz ackowledged that rated BGs were broken and said they were fixing it (last tuesday) but since then there have still been reports of negative rating for wins and wins not being recorded etc. Please explain?”

“What a godawful mess this battleground is. Although the environment is well thought out the gameplay is less than desireable. This battleground is next to impossible to win. Although we are told that numbers are balanced they are in fact NO…”

“^”

“Hey all. Just wanted to draw ur attention to the fact that twinks are back with the new possibility of stopping ur xp gain at any lvl you want! For anyone on Vek'Nilash we have created a guild called The Chosen Few. We have over 300 members…”

“..”

“This is ridiculous. It's never been this long before, even back in the day before mergers and battlegroups. 15 - 30 min queues for 1 single BG. Come on. Half of my friends have transfered factions or just quit because of this. They should h…”

“This is probably a horrible idea but I'll wait for someone else to confirm that. How about a bg with an Arathi Basin style layout that once a team captures a flag, instead of having to personally hang around defending it, the area spawns so…”

“I'm sure many people have run into this by now. If you don't have cata greens, which means are level 77+ and want to spend money, you lose. They are so far superior that it's become which team has more people with cata gear. This needs to b…”

“well here's my little idea for a temporary fix to tol barad. your thoughts ? optional win: -Cap 2 towers/buildings whatever and hold for 3-5 min -instant cap 3 to win (how it is now) that way defenders cant circle zerg, and attackers have t…”

“Is it just me, or is all the Horde experiencing long wait times to get into an unranked, random, 85 BG? I've made a bunch of random characters in different battlegroups and largely the answers are: Horde wait 10m, Alliance 30s.”

“I have 3 quick changes that I think could help "fix" SotA. And yes this is a pretty big wall of text, but quite frankly if you are unwilling to read for 2 minutes I don't really want your input anyways. Also please be mature and thoughtful …”

“I know there are a lot of posts about TB... The fact of the matter is that you can have defenders at a node - the opposing teams "zerg" can move into range of the control point AND flip the control point without ever initiating combat. Ofte…”

“Grats on hotfixing your hotfix! But we are still waiting for a buff for the attacking team.”
