Cross Realm Battlegrounds

[Decrapifier]

Are you guys looking into the 1.14 client? It's so super smooth compared to the old client

[Moai]

so we started playing octo because no bshit Xfaction pvp. and now we get bshit xfaction pvp. ty for once again proving u want the pvp server dead. and like i said before, told you ud shove it down our troath.

We made this change to relive the issues of people not even being able to make it into a BG in the first place on the PvP server. We are planning on allowing same realm queue for BG's in the near future

You can't make N'zoth players to be added to appropriate factions? Horde to the Horde and Alliance to Alliance?

I play on PvP server specifically to avoid cross faction stuff. Please consider adding this correction.

The main issue with this is that many players on N'Zoth queue BG's with friends on the other faction exclusively, and removing Xfaction would ruin this for hundreds of players.
What we do plan on is having the option to queue either same realm or cross realm in the future once we have tested the cross realm BG's enough. So please look at this as a temporary feature that is subject to change.

You’re worried that people on the PvP server can’t get into BG (that’s not true; I had no trouble getting into BG). At the same time, you want to make it so that players can choose between playing in cross‑server BG and playing in BG on the same server. This way, you’ll divide the already small online population on the PvP server, so that players who despise cross‑faction can only play BG on holidays. You’ll make it even less accessible to get into normal BG on the PvP server. Perhaps it’s completely inaccessible. I used to not believe that you deliberately want to kill the PvP server. But that’s exactly how it looks.

Yea, there is that. Which also worries me.

But I just don't understand the approach of not enforcing separate faction pvp. I know that on PVE realm people are doing cross faction, but for battlegrounds separate factions should be enforced. This is what Warcraft was built upon, Horde versus Alliance. and keep PvE for convenience shared. But it feels wrong to me to do cross faction pvp. I would urge developers to really re-think this.

This is huge, looking forward to check how BGs will look like.
Now launch epic tier 2 pvp sets with BWL release and we'll all be fine.

This is blatantly ignoring the pvp realmers request of NO CROSS FACTION WHATSOEVER. People on horde side are just going to abuse the que to get a quick kings buff, and afk out. I'm calling it RN

Agreed.

i'm getting really sick of all these crashes for a part of the game that i do not care about.

Great egotistical view. Now kindly fuck off.

[Bhors]

• Cross faction will be enabled for cross realm battlegrounds, but only N'Zoth players will be able to be assigned to the opposite faction

I play on Y'Shaarj and why to i get cross faction battlegrounds? Is it a bug or what? Cause i don't want alliance in my team!
I need to know cause if it stays that way i won't play the game!
