Disable group queueing for BGs

#1 » Post by Vaen » 23 Mar 2017 17:04

With the recent cross-faction BG change, it seems to happen more often that 2 instances of the same BG (WSG for instance) are open at the same time, each with half the amount of players (<=5) that a single battleground could have.

A simple fix for this would be to disable group queues which seem to be the only thing that can cause this at the moment.

I don't think you can group queue, unless someone enabled it recently.

Wrong realm, Gnurg.

I recall it was disabled in the past on PrimalWoW, I guess it wasn't...

It should be disabled if we keep CF BGs enabled, as it would create uneven battlegrounds.

I actually think that's the simple, clear and wrong solution to it, honestly. Because the 'play with friends' factor is something I personally think we shouldn't neglect, and the uneven battlegrounds issue was there even before this. So if we could find some alternate way to not start a second battleground if the first is not full, then I think we would actually be taking a step forward to what's desirable.

Disable crossfaction battlegrounds then. They don't work together.

The 'play with friends' factor can also turn into 'play with carries' factor and this would be of a much greater issue than having to bash your friend's skull in, every now and then.

I play on TW but I personally like the idea of matching against my friends and murdering them (and want bigger bgs ofc), so +1.

This is becoming really annoying, especially with AV and AB weekends, at this moment there's currently 8 players queued for AV and they cannot get into the 25man AV because someone is group queueing. Does anybody have any further input on this? Can we have this feature disabled already?

(PVP)Group Queing still causing problems

#14 » Post by Remix » 20 May 2017 21:18

Still causing problem, ppl don't like to quit queing as group and its causing 2-3 bgs at the same time. PLEASE disable this, its not hard or fix it where atleast 1 bg fills before going to another.'

would love to see a gm's response to this since we have had afew threads already.
