12v9 BG and i don't even get que ??

[Pablous]

So, today 4/4 18:00 GMT +1 i logg onto pwow to que some solo bg. i look into the spectate and i see Arathi Basin 12v9. i que up as rdruid and i can't even get inside? i mean i get the point for 3 man BG's. but let me tell you this from a daily experience i have on this server. 

 

 

20PM, server at its peak for the day? around 100- 150 ish players on xfun. whenever i que BG then i mostly have to wait because there is a ongoing BG already that literally takes about 15-30 minutes, we have to keep track of the game in order to find myself in a new battle, if i dont i've to wait another 30minutes, wich already at this point is hella annoying. 

 

Now introducing a maximized capacity inside a BG for healers makes a prettymuch useless to play a healing class because you barely will get any que of the night. how is this even motivating me to play here? i cant get a single arena unless its peaking in solo que? 2v2/3v3 normal is dead. all people do is WG when its communicated on discord, not even random players anymore. and now further i even can't play a BG properly without waiting a long period of time. since its a insta 90 pvp server there is literally nothing else to do beside these 2 activites, wich now also require a minimun wait time for 15-30 minutes??  

 

now you let healers que that dont do nothing? look screenshots! and letting blood dk's run the game??

 

ive been here since 2017 and i can't say nothing about pwow, i mainly love it. beside some bad banning decisions in my opinion. out of thats i love it. 

 

 

but if this keeps going on i'm willing to leave here. wich would be a shame for myself, my friends here and also your donation fee's, since i donate pretty much here. 

 

 i hope this is something temporary becuase to me this is NOT motivating me to play.

One measure that could significantly improve the Battlegrounds (BGs) experience would be to temporarily suspend the group scoring option. This action would not involve limiting the number of heals, but simply balancing the entry conditions. By preventing groups from forming, the game system would be able to distribute players more fairly and equitably between both teams, resulting in more balanced and competitive matchups.

Furthermore, this measure would directly benefit solo or new players, who are often discouraged from participating by constantly facing organized groups that dominate matches. By reducing this gap, it would foster a more accessible and fair environment for all participants.

As an additional positive effect, it would encourage greater overall participation, which would help reduce wait times in queues to enter BGs, thus improving the fluidity of the system and community satisfaction.

So we pretty much discussed it at discord and I already explained you that the previous match making system was unfair because it gave priority to players who waited longer in queue and did not check specializations that people went in BG.

 

So as you already know we had in the past BGs with 4 or 5 healers and opponent team had 0 or 1, was that fair match making? Does the match making in BGs works like that in retail?

This suggestion was discussed few days ago and got rejected. We will not ban premade groups. Anyone can make a premade group and queue for BG.
