Darwin award winners = AV turtlers

[deadward]

Everybody ques up for fast wins in Av. We just got turtled by a team with no offensive plan in sight. They literally reset the game while we were on Van, and yet had no offense trying to kill the horde boss guy. It was terrible. Eseentially turned it into a pointless endeavor for both teams

Heres the issue you had on your side. You need to start layin down the law to tell your guys to STOP defending IB/FW area Towers and GY's We did our due diligence on letting your side take SH/DB area towers and GY.

Also, you got about 10 of us fairly peeved that you backdoored up that wall to get to VAN.

So, lessons learned: Horde need to stop defence on their towers and gys like we dont put up D on our towers and GY for your side. And dont exploit terrain that in retail was fixed. Easy peasy. 100% focus needs to be put on offensive tower and gy assaults while also letting our own towers and gys fall. No D is the best O in this case.

Believe me man. I tell everyone on D to go O all the time. They don't listen. They just want to mindlessly kill whoever.

But yea it's totally the problem. As far as back dooring goes I don't support it. But it's hard to persuade 25 people to not do it. It ends up sucking anyways because y'all's graveyard is so close that we literally can't fight Van without 15 allies up our butts at all times.

AV is literally like the book Ecclesiastes. Meaningless meaningless. Vanity of vanities. They won't fix it so it's an endless cycle of torturous play.

People want to PvP in a battleground and don't want to constantly kill an NPC pls help

Let people do what they want, really. Not everyone really wants fast wins since you see they're turtling. I enjoyed getting my rep, by defending a choke point and looting alliance corpses, had great fun.

I think you won't ever understand that its not all about the destination, but also the way there. People want to take different paths, don't force them to follow you.

If there are more people defending and it causes a turtle. That means more people want to turtle.

When I wanted to win I followed a 30 offense 10 defense formation, but whatever

It's actually really funny to qeue AV and just kill people instead of doing any objectives.

This thread along with all the ppl QQing in bg chat motivates me to do this even more.

Well said indeed Simonich.

The most fun I ever had in AV was when Blizzard decided it was a good idea to release snowballs that you could throw at your own faction. Cue much hilarity at knocking your own players off bridges to their deaths.

[Winstons]

I'm so pleased, I actually just found the screenshot of some of the whispers I got while doing the snowballing, I'd thought I'd lost this forever - even better it was when cross-server battlegrounds first got introduced, so I was able to annoy a huge range of new people.

[Lefeu]

That's some epic snowballing. Awesome.
