I just wanted to post how depressed, sad and disappointed i am at the current state of the once epic Alterac Valley BG.
Ive always loved the big BGs which feel like a massive war between 80 players moving around a large map trying to outfox each other with numerous tactics. But now this BG has been reduced to a fast 'Rush' tactic which means the game is over in less than 5minutes, and worst of all the top killer is lucky to get over 3 killing blows...
AV has been reduced to players exploiting their PvE skillset by nominating tanks, healers and dps and simply rushing up the map as quick as they can and hoping they get to engage the boss b4 the enemy does. Its sad to watch 40 players passing another 40 players in the middle of the map and nobody stopping to actually fight the other team.
Yesterday I got 4 AV in a row through Random BG and all 4 were over in a total of about 20minutes (1 WSG lasts 25mins)... and worst point was that one fight i had zero hks, yes ZERO! Id spent 5 minutes running around the map trying to cap gys, towers etc and didnt engage a single enemy player in doing so, and worst of all not a single enemy player was killed in my area to register a single hk! lol
And yes i went from start to middle and then back to try to defend our own boss... not a single HK!
My question is, how can this be called PvP?
