[Deleted]

its not active for a week only, the wording in the post is terrible. its live for the next reset, today for US and wednesday for eu

[Darktbs]

I liked it, shame is only for 1 Week, but i expect to be a separated Queue for 1 week and them be implemented alongside the others.

Time to kill some Horde scum

it's pretty crap the way it plays atm, imo. Def needs some changes to be fun. Maybe add a mechanic where you have to hold the point for 30s-1min to cap.

So, tomorrow in the civilised world then.

The special brawl is only a week. The BG isn't going anywhere.

Nah, then it will become too similar to AB. I like the idea of how it is short BG since it is different from the norm but I just think the time it takes to cap should be longer just because I think it's too hard to stop someone from capping atm.

pretty much this. I find it weird people even do BG's anymore. PVP has literally no rewards.

The prestige mounts, weapon skins, and titles are probably a driving point for many.

Testing? Umm... isnt that what ptr's are for?

Do you have PTR account? Are you an active PTR player?

So theres going to be no downtime till it fully releases then. Thats nice. Test it for a week, make any adjustments on maintenance day, then full release.

I guess. As soon as gear was removed from PVP via currency ie the start of this expansion I didn't find it fun working towards anything. I pvp'd a bit in season 3 of legion and got 2200ish. Getting 6 chestplates in a row was kind of discouraging when trying to complete my set.

Do you parachute drop in?

It begins.

[Dracullus]

I wonder if people will actually go to those moving objectives or if it will be pure chaos. That would require them to open their map and I am not sure how people will manage that.

Chaos of course. War.. war never changes.

6 years for a new bg

[Rainyhealz]

You don’t. Need rewards to do something fun.

The rewards made it more fun. The scaling and even playing field left players with no incentive to work at it. This is why pvp has become less popular. This is why there are only 3-4 rbg groups going instead of the usual from other expacs

[Rampant Rabbit]

Boring jungle shoreline ogre environment. Looks like the waterside border of a zone/continent where an intern got some room to play around with.

In other words, it looks like SHIT.

[Saverem]

Wonder if Blizz will ever make an actual cart escort PvP with attack/def sides. That is my favorite style and that Silvershit Mine BG does a terrible job at it.

[AmazonDruid]

Now make classes fun again and give us pvp gear vendor back with currencies. Get rid of those pvp talents. Make skills being baseline and reverse class prunning. Make Tank classes meaningfull again, we don't to want to be (pseudo)bruisers we want to endure damage and disrupt.
