Totally agree :D
I enjoy it, by far my favorite aspect of the game
PvP is the most frustrating aspect... you are against live opposition, so have more incentive to win and feel it worse when you do not or are taunted.
But like anything, if you want it enough... you'll get to the top. And it will be more satisfying to repeatedly stomp live opposition then to beat a heroic for the ninth time.
It's playing with the other idiots that makes it suck so much.
I liked PvP in Pre-Tbc and also in TBC, but it's just getting worse and worse. I never really liked arena, but it was still fun in TBC. In Wotlk I just can't stand it anymore, but that's my personal opinion :)
By and large the other characters in the heroic aren't going to decide not to heal or pull the boss without capping towers or waiting for a tank, they healers aren't going to dps when they should heal, etc. Or just the plain afk stuff.
If you mean want it though is the equivalent of making premades, forming a pvp focued guild, etc ... sure I'll buy that. i enjoy healing in bgs tremendously ... over healing in pve. But running with some random group of people, that rarely works out.
The problem seems to be humans them self, not any particular aspect of the game.
Let's get rid of them :>
AV on horde side is a classic example.
Every horde player knows that a rush v rush strategy is fail due to the Alliance map advantage in that situation.
However, 2 out of every 3 matches go rush v rush. At least. Amazes me how often I'm standing in Galv's room with 2 other Horde and we're all looking at each other like, "Shoulda just rushed".
Instead of defending galv, go wait further south for the people who try to rush to FW. Kill them. Then once the pack of alliance comes who killed Galv, you kill as many as you can. Or you dodge them to keep your buffs. Then recap IB / TP towers and you bought your own offense a good time advantage. Combine that with trying to kill off as many alliance as you can and it's pretty darn hard to kill Drek with 2 Warmasters up.
Tenacity was the stupidest idea they every had. There is no way to survive an 1 on 1 with someone who has 2-3 times tenacity. It's a total fake-out & funk because the whole aspect of the game is off. I usually figure out tenacity is bad when I find my team dead from one player.
PvP is not what it used to be, I used to do AV for hours on end ... It's pointless to do now since any well geared 5 man team can take down the bosses with all of the towers up.
I agree, for some reason PvP sux these days.
I'm just defending drek in alterac, wait until the alliance comes in, if you kill them too early before the horde controles the stormpike graveyard they will be stopped by the respawning alliance you killed in the horde base
perhaps you like zerg bg's but after ~180k HK's (and about 120k in alterac) it isnt really fun anymore :*(
