I think patch 1.1 is going to force me out :(

Bad much?

Wait until more people are 50 ?

If you are going to troll, at least learn how to construct a proper, readable sentence.
Or just stick to wow.

This is one of the most destructive things you could do for server communities. I urge you to reconsider this, or find another solution to whatever perceived issue has lead to this desire.

Bioware, nobody wants cross-server queueing. It kills server communities as far as PvP and solo/guild reputations. Please reconsider seeing as this is what killed the fun for Battlegrounds in WoW and turned them into more of a grind than 'fun'.

I hope you're not serious about this. How can PvP be fun or fair when you have level 50s versus much lower levels?

There's a reason that all good, competitive PvP games have brackets both according to level and to premade vs. solo queue.


This guy is:

A) Overreacting. There's already a lot of 50s by now, and there'll be even more by the time 1.1 rolls out (if the canceling of last night's patch is indication, it won't be for a week or two more).

B) Quite possibly just wants to be able to steamroll teams to get easy wins.

Cross-server queues are understandably very, very bad for PvE... but I fail to see how cross-server queues are bad for PvP. Please explain your reasoning.

I wasn't talking about PvE communities. In fact, I'd say cross-server queues for PvE are exponentially less detrimental than they are for PvP communities. The reasoning is plainly obvious.

This just in: When you race to the level cap before the rest of the playerbase, there isn't anyone there.

News at eleven.

/sarcasm Apparently this is news to some people.

I absolutely approve telling the OP to reroll if he wants to PvP right now. It's a simple solution to a complex problem that is guaranteed to work. On top of which, when the average player finally has a toon at the level cap the OP can go back to his capped main.

And at that point, he'll probably have two or three capped toons.

A possible alternative to cross-server queues would be scaling rewards based on how much longer than a minute or two you wait in queue. Add a multiplier based on wait time, so that rewards/time remain roughly equal. If your average warzone lasts 10 minutes, and the average queue is under a minute, you can do at least 5 in an hour. If the queue extends to 10 minutes, you'd only be doing 3 in an hour. Increasing rewards by 70% with a 10 minute queue would mean equal rewards/hour. Once the queue hits 30 minutes, you'd be talking about 1.5/hour, so multiplying rewards by just about 4 fold would lead to equal/rewards per hour.

TBH, I think you'd have to use a more aggressive multiplier than that, given PvP is a lot more fun than sitting around twiddling your thumbs, so just equal rewards/hour doesn't really make up for it IMHO.

Please don't create Cross server PVP queues. I like that i can find and PVP with people on MY server. You will ruin the sense of notoriety on the server if you make it cross server.

I dont know about you, but i wanna step into a warzone and have people see my name and think, ****, that guy's really good.

You don't get this on cross server queues as they are too large.
