My friends are quitting because of boosting/coaching. Literally can't play at 1800 rating without meeting a 3k player who plays all day every day. So thanks for that. It's a bigger problem than lack of solo queue at the moment. You guys are contributing to ruining the game for 20 people every time you help 1.
its sad that stoopzz cares more about the pvp than the actual company making the game. i swear to god stoopzz is a fucking legend in this community. i really hope his stream blows the fuck up and he finds himself in a very comfy position in life.
The problem is not LFG. It is the people. The huge gear difference between rating is the real problem. Gladiators say all the time that gear in not the deciding factor but if that were true then there would be no need to hand out the best gear to the highest rated players. Instead could give highest rated players titles and cosmetic rewards. But there money on the line and this system is the best for selling carries. So there you go.
I feel like this a lot. I want to PVP, but I never find people I actually want to que up with normally, so I start PVEing with my Guild. Then, I get kind of bored with that, and it sucks. I shouldn't have to settle for just doing PVE all the time because I can't PVP whenever I want with homies.
I find strange that most streamers don't even touch the real cause of problem which is the stupid idea of gear upgrades tied to rating, no1 asked for that, since most of the pvp comunity don't even do arena to begin with, maybe because when blizzard announced this change, they made videos glorifyg the "new" system, now that's the result... Hopefully they will implement WOD pvp system again in patch 9.1, and fix most of the problem

@@Mamajoe942 it's simple though, just increase from 25 per win to 75. At the very least, have it scale to a characters cap so you get more when your cap is very high.
@@7128jml That is an actually good idea yes. I think that could work. But tbh they should just make gearing as in warlords, pvp scaling was a good thing for arenas, maybe not so much for world pvp, but for arenas it was really good. You did not feel completely worthless as a newly dinged max lvl in arena games, and gear did not matter that much.
arenas are ridiculous rn. Me and my friend was playing freshly capped characters which we aren't very good at playing, we got around 200ilvl with covenant gear, legendary and some conquest pieces and the games at 1300mmr are like 40% of them against overgeared people i swear we meet one 215-227 guy in an enemy team, another 30% against some difficult comps like RM which we got not great win rate against and another 30% are against alright teams where we naturally win or lose depending on how we actually performed. Maybe guys with 227 gear shouldn't be matched with teams who has mmr below 2100 or something? I mean almost half of our games we forced to play in huge disadvantage. I'm are not really pissed, because i will probably give up on shitty 2s and grab another friend to play 3s where things are a bit better but not for long i guess. But conquest situation is really makes me mad. How da fuk im supposed to cap 8000 conquest in that situation? 200ilvl pvp gear is not even powerful atm and pvp part of the game is SEASONAL and now we are freaking 4 months into season. Obtaining 200ilvl pvp gear shouldn't be that hard! Look at WOD or MOP, capping conquest was fun and easy: you play at the very bottom of a ladder, getting used to a characeter and getting gear fast. You know why it was that easy? Because pvp gear was separated from pve via pvp stat. Devs said that they dont want to differenciate gear because of entry barrier. Like you got pve gear and you want to get into pvp - got and do that. Yeah, that is exactly how it feels now right? Just go and do that... for a month of grinding.
There should be 200 conquest for loss and 250 for win as reward in rated arena. Gears should be wildly available to the point where getting a character to the minus 15 ilevels from max of that season should be a day or two of work.
If a few buddies werent comitted to keep me ingame id have quit. Tired of dealing with 40k+ hp dudes when playing arena with 30k hp, the no lifers/hardcore crowd effectively kill the fun of the casual folk. We still end up winning alot, its not that, its also just tiresome grinding arena games to never climb any rating on a positive win/loss ratio versus either supergeared guys (better gear = advantage) or hypercarry 0 rating paired with a friggin glad guy... A week ago i had 170 ilvl and am sick of getting paired versus 220... insert ilvl in the matchmaking pls.... more hp = more damage = more armor = more vers = uneven playing field. Its not blizzard so much, its the over demanding addicted no lifers that spoil my fun.
@@kasherer6300 yeah it's not the players fault, at all. It's the power creep/rating lock for gear. the best players dont NEED to have superior gear ya know?
@@handsie221 its not the players fault lol. You got shit on by a guy with better gear boo hoo. Blizzard rating locking gear upgrades is the main issue nothing more nothing less.
Update weekly quests 500 conquest for each. Honor gear at 197. Conquest for loss. 10 conquest for losing, 25 for win in 2s and 20 for loss and 50 for win in 3s. Make all gear missive driven. But a naked piece and put stats into it.
Even if they added solo queue. All the higher rated players just wouldn't use it and it would just be all the low geared players squabbling with each other. The problem is the ilvl disparity. Despite blizzard doing a level/ilvl squish again, they still stick to this insane design of having crazy high ilvl power creep so it still has the same problems and will quickly end up with the same issues as before, and need ANOTHER squish. They wouldn't need to squish so much if ilvl didn't skyrocket.
blizzard can create a mentor system which will help to new players and also aid to experienced players. when there was no lfg system back in 2005 it was easier to get friends. Now it is like playing with bots.
I mean, why pay blizzard to not update their game. As much as I love PVP, if they have no interest in taking action, I'm just going to play a game where the devs give a shit.
This explains my experience with 100% accuracy. I love WoW pvp, but the barrier to entry on arena is huge. Even equally rated players with equal gear dont want to queue with someone in the same situation as them and everyone disbands after only a couple of losses.
the game has become rotten since we put the addons and people can no longer play instinctively and are forced to play with software to assist, and reveal the skills of the opponent if he used this or that. all this to tell you that you are cheating and know that all you have done is only that you have been not helping something and not yourself, I think you will have to question yourself after reading this.
Solo Queue is one solution. Another is to make rated queues based on an ilvl range, not some shabby reimplementation of gear scaling. They could solve this in like 9 lines of code, I swear. Players with better gear SHOULD have an advantage over undergeared players. However, the only time this should occur is in world pvp or duels. The gear gaps between players is ridiculous. No new player or even a pro gearing an alt wants to queue against a 45k hp ret pally that wipes your team with one global while you're sitting at 600mmr. Too much of arena is based on gear and not skill, which is unfortunate for any aspiring arena player. Idk about you all, but i'd rather sit in a BG / Arena queue for 10x as long to be queued against a team whose ilvl is within 10 of my teams average ilvl.
The recent AWC chat logs were absolutely filled with people asking for solo Q. If it doesnt happen soon, it will prob never happen. The game is super super fun for elite players...... they have friendlist full of other elite players and they can get igh rating / get into groups super easy. Casuals spend more time in LFG than playing ranked, thats horrible. I hope they do something soon =(
I refuse to care about this game more than Blizzard does, which feels like not at all. WoW feels more like a lobby game, and I don't know what I'm waiting around for anymore.
Same for PVE. As prot warrior and 194 ilvl did a +14dos (timed), next week did a+10 (timed) and healer complained about me being barely 200 ilvl even tho he couldn't heal himself and I as prot was doing fine on my own. They dont care what is your mains score if youre on an alt. They want 220+ and juicy score. People are bad at the game and toxic. Without friends its shit. I dont even log on now if nobody is on Discord.
I will say, I actually love torghast. I think its a much much better version of visions and the progression to complete the twisted corridors was very fun. That being said, it is an expansion feature, pvp is a game mode that will and should always be in the game and take priority. If I remember correctly there were stat templates in legion that helped when playing alts for pvp, would that not be a quicker fix to help with gear balance? I dont remember what people didn't like about the templates
@@Legendcommentaries2 I'm actually stuck in 1330 because once I get close enough to 1400 I que with people that have upgraded their gear which is a huge boost to every armor piece so I drop to 1200 then win a bunch in a row to then run into those people again. So frustrating
Ironlights VR is the Real Soloque .. fighting with weapons in Virtual Reality is much better than being a keyboard Warrior , I played wow for 12 years , Ironlights is the real pvp !
It's bc by the time I got my legendary & Ilvl was caught up, people were getting to +15 keys to get 15 ilv ahead & I was already burnt from just getting up to that point & re-rolling to sub rogue took a toll on me in arenas.. trying to arena123 all that CC & other abilities is not easy & just want more time for FPS games. That's why I quit for now.
Also legion had large updates every 70 days. For shadowlands it is expected to take 255 days from launch. Shadowlands isn't as detailed and refined as the other expansions. it feels like quick weekend work. Also the shadowlands it way too dark and modern. I miss old wooden caberns, sparkling fire places, green hills... Just a bit more the classic fantasy theme with dragons and unicorns, you get the vibe...
2 years later : solo Q has been added to the game ; didn't matter , savix and all the people that " wanted solo Q so bad it will save the game " quit the game faster than the other pvp players that didn't even necessarly ask for it ; and now play fulltime CLASSIC HARDCORE ; WOW . true clown
I played my first ever rated arena solo queue, my guy is a ww monk runs in and instantly dies I manage to kill 1 but sadly loose to the second guy with 10% hp left, team mate messages me "you should just quit the game and stop queuing you fucking trash ret cant even do a dps rotation" feels good to be back guys
On which server and what is the name? I am on outland and getting invited anywhere as someone who came back after long break is hard. Cant even get invited in mythic dungeons.
the fact that they keep adding power creeps through out the life of an expansion probably deters new players as well. they should normalize gear so a fresh 60 doesnt have half the HP of a geared 60, i understand its an mmo but most mmo's have normalized gear that dont increase in power from every update. this would promote playing your class skillfully and not relying on having gear. because at this point, wow has always been gear > skill. no body wants to play wow exclusively like a job just to be viable in competitive play. i always hated playing the new xpac on launch and being similarly geared to everyone, then i quit playing for a month or two and when i get back everyone has twice the amount of stats.
It's not just the new players who are quitting because of it, a lot of old ones too who no longer support this omnipresent and inappropriate elitism in this game. And this observation on the pvp lfg is exactly the same on the pve side too. I have been playing the game for 14 years and today this ubiquitous min/maxing mentality wears me out and takes me away any fun of the game.
As someone new to shadowlands who didnt played since mop, its really hard to pvp. I capped honor gear and luckily i have one friend playing with me and we play pretty solid, but what the fuck am i supposed to do against bis people spamming low rating? Gear shouldnt be locked behind high rating this late in season. Give them some elite pvp skins and shit, i am all for that, but seriously we are stuck. We win against 90% of enemy teams that are our gear, but every other team are bis players and you cant do shit against that big gap in gear, even though many of those teams suck, you just cant kill someone with 20% versatility. Also for pve content i cant get a single invite into mythic dungeon because i am playing new char without achivs. Really dumb that they dont give a fuck and we are stuck somewhat. We are still trying to climb a bit, but its really hard against super geared people that smurf low rating. Also they have automatic LFG for heroic dungeons but no for mythic. Why? If i have gear needed, just give me automatic group maker so i can at least try to get some achivs. Really stupid. Also thorgast, anima, honor farms, covenants and renown, like seriously tooo much, and then add gold gap for new players. Retail is insanely bad for coming back or new players. I play wotlk on private servers, its really not that punishing to gear up a new character and to reach LOD and RS 25 hc, even without achivs.
unfortunately you will undergo this same crappy situation at tbc when you want to do arenas. And the system will be even worse, it will be necessary to create a team before being able to enter the arena. Even on classic vanilla, elitism is omnipresent, it will be the same or even worse on tbc.
Well, at least on TBC, pvp gear upgrades alongside pve gear. You're not left behind. New raids poppin ? Heres comes the new season... new gear with arena points... new gear with honor points. It's way less tricky. Just spam bg to get some gear (and you can soloqueue that) and voilà. You'll have decent ilvl compared of the rest of the playerbase. So no. Won't totally be the same as SL. WIll you find elitist along the way ? Yeah. But it's clearly more newcomers/reroll friendly.
its because no one is there and even when they are, they dont say shit. its like everyone in wow has some much social anxiety from playing wow they can't even just type hello. its like why would u want to play where u should be working and playing with other people but those people just feel like lifeless bots..
I don't think solo Q will fix the issue by no means look at TBC,wrath,cata the biggest Esports moments of wow. that is because people were more social and duel 24/7.
World of warcraft.. I can´t even recognize the game today. Maybe it has to do with the game, mby because of the playerbase. I was interested and played WoW because it was literally built on social interaction. You couldn´t get anywhere without it. These days it seems like the complete opposite. You can´t stay competitive if you don´t play solo using the LFG systems. I dunno if the playerbase changed the game or if the game changed the playerbase but I will never return to wow that´s for sure. I did play classic and even there some plebs are minmaxing waaay to hard... but atleast you´d get in contact with people and the world felt so much more vivid and alive. My last expansion was Cata, and then I thought the world was plastic and empty.. I can´t imagine how it is now (I´ve followed the development in hopes of a fun and new turn for the game). If you enjoy the game please let me know why or how, because from what I´ve been able to see and heard.. it sounds like garbage just like cata.
It's only 9.0 and the gear scaling is so huge already. Gear is way too important. My favorite patch is historically X.0 because of the more even playing fields
@@wowgmplayer well the problems pretty real, the seasons too long, gear inflation is a thing now and the rating brackets don't make any sense. You try to hit 1400 and at 1k u run into people with 40k health already
Blizzard game are all DEAD because blizzard doesn't even care about players side.and that's why I'm one of those players who quited wow... They can really make Wow ,Hots ,and Ow if they listen to the player base.... But they'll never do this
Tbh I quit wow because of all the out of game addons you MOST have in order to be competitive in pvp plus you have to have discord & after 2k CR people wont even let you play the fucking game If you dont have a mic. Call me crazy but I think a game should come with everything I need in order to play it effectively ESPECIALLY if it's a monthly
Every CS GO match... Every League Match... Practically every competitive team v team game is SOLO QUE! Just implement better in-game voice and let people solo que for arena. Yeah you'll lose, yeah you'll have some meh teammates, but the games will be quick, and people might actually find someone they like playing with that way.
They also should do that for PvE and remove the fucking io shit system, and say that as a Player pushing 20s... Its just redicilous how meta focused that shit game is in ANY aspect, even in low keys they "NEED BIG BLASTER MAGE DoS +4". Like really? What is that?
Should just get rid of the gear factor in arenas and rbgs honestly. Let it be about playing well and good communication. It sucks for alts and alienates new players. I can't even imagine doing arenas on a new char without friends.
Basically toxic players exclude any other player who isn't up to date on gear and what's min/max or FOTM, like Blizzard said ...community is the worst part of WoW.
this is really great! pvp guilds are a great, the thing is i play on EU in a pvp server and the pvp guilds are most part dead and the ones that have players they will ask you rating! i hope some great people fom EU that have the knolage to lead and help others do the same.
so annoying when streamers cry for solo que when instead they should be trying to get the fucking pvp fixed in general....IF THE GAME WASNT ASS, MORE PPL WOULD PLAY....how hard is that to understand...ppl leave because the shit isnt fun for longer than a couple months.....how bout we fix that problem instead of trying to put a small Band-Aid on an amputated arm....
Trouble is, and always has been, is more people pve than pvp, only reason more people are pvping at early expansion is you had to in order to get better gear. Raids and mplus had dog shit gear compared to pvp. Then these pve players realised they can't even get the gear in pvp because it's harder than pve with boosters etc, so they all quit.

5-PVP balancing patches where have they gone? If you don't have the dev bandwidth (I don't believe this but hey that's just me), then hurry up and add templates back or partial templates.
6-Buff consistent damage and nerf cooldown stacking. It's horrible to hit for 2k every global outside of CD's then do 10k per hit for 10 seconds during. Except if you are a warrior of course.

Keep your feelings to yourself
I quit a month ago just because of LFG :D pity. It's a fun game. Wish I could play arenas instantly every time I log on
u can u just need to play 700 matches before u actually have gear
when savix describes my lfg situation and says "I would never do that" ... it's time for me to take a break from the game lol
The 200 I level should be bought with honor and upgraded with conquest
we need Pilav in EU to do this O.O

blizzard can create a mentor system which will help to new players and also aid to experienced players. when there was no lfg system back in 2005 it was easier to get friends. Now it is like playing with bots.
#SoloQueue
im looking to come back and may just want to play retail 30s BGs for fun...the XPoff community looks like it's growing...
I mean, why pay blizzard to not update their game. As much as I love PVP, if they have no interest in taking action, I'm just going to play a game where the devs give a shit.
HMU when you find a game with devs who give a shit. Would also like to play a good game.
This explains my experience with 100% accuracy. I love WoW pvp, but the barrier to entry on arena is huge. Even equally rated players with equal gear dont want to queue with someone in the same situation as them and everyone disbands after only a couple of losses.
16:39 like me in cataclysm, pandaria, draenor, legion, bfa, no more chance for shadowlands or any other mmo
the game has become rotten since we put the addons and people can no longer play instinctively and are forced to play with software to assist, and reveal the skills of the opponent if he used this or that. all this to tell you that you are cheating and know that all you have done is only that you have been not helping something and not yourself, I think you will have to question yourself after reading this.

Truth!this f game give me only pain like new player

Solo Queue is one solution. Another is to make rated queues based on an ilvl range, not some shabby reimplementation of gear scaling. They could solve this in like 9 lines of code, I swear. Players with better gear SHOULD have an advantage over undergeared players. However, the only time this should occur is in world pvp or duels. The gear gaps between players is ridiculous. No new player or even a pro gearing an alt wants to queue against a 45k hp ret pally that wipes your team with one global while you're sitting at 600mmr. Too much of arena is based on gear and not skill, which is unfortunate for any aspiring arena player. Idk about you all, but i'd rather sit in a BG / Arena queue for 10x as long to be queued against a team whose ilvl is within 10 of my teams average ilvl.
I quit 3 weeks ago and could not be happier. Fuck WoW
The recent AWC chat logs were absolutely filled with people asking for solo Q.
If it doesnt happen soon, it will prob never happen.
The game is super super fun for elite players...... they have friendlist full of other elite players and they can get igh rating / get into groups super easy. Casuals spend more time in LFG than playing ranked, thats horrible.
I hope they do something soon =(
I refuse to care about this game more than Blizzard does, which feels like not at all. WoW feels more like a lobby game, and I don't know what I'm waiting around for anymore.
Lol yea that’s why I quit. I play the game just to afk cuz there’s really nothing to do
Same for PVE. As prot warrior and 194 ilvl did a +14dos (timed), next week did a+10 (timed) and healer complained about me being barely 200 ilvl even tho he couldn't heal himself and I as prot was doing fine on my own. They dont care what is your mains score if youre on an alt. They want 220+ and juicy score.
People are bad at the game and toxic. Without friends its shit. I dont even log on now if nobody is on Discord.
Solo Q, you think you do, but you don't.
You know I love stoopz and all but the real super hero for this LFG guild is the savage god himself SAVIX the SAVIOR OF ALL THE COOMERS!!
I will quit as well cant find Arena mates every season waisted time of life 😞
I will say, I actually love torghast. I think its a much much better version of visions and the progression to complete the twisted corridors was very fun. That being said, it is an expansion feature, pvp is a game mode that will and should always be in the game and take priority. If I remember correctly there were stat templates in legion that helped when playing alts for pvp, would that not be a quicker fix to help with gear balance? I dont remember what people didn't like about the templates
Gearing 1 months ago was quite easy for me but that was probably because I am a healer and it’s easy for me to get groups
just fking lower the req in rating to upgrade a piece to 226, like have it at like 1600 instead of 2.4
or have it like in mist of pandaria where you just cap ur conquest and buy the gear as it is,,,,
@@Legendcommentaries2 I'm actually stuck in 1330 because once I get close enough to 1400 I que with people that have upgraded their gear which is a huge boost to every armor piece so I drop to 1200 then win a bunch in a row to then run into those people again. So frustrating
Real Savix video
Does this mean that my feral spec will finally get a chance to shine to play with the big bois?!?! :O
why solo que, when i 1v1 versus mage already cancer.
Ironlights VR is the Real Soloque .. fighting with weapons in Virtual Reality is much better than being a keyboard Warrior , I played wow for 12 years , Ironlights is the real pvp !
It's bc by the time I got my legendary & Ilvl was caught up, people were getting to +15 keys to get 15 ilv ahead & I was already burnt from just getting up to that point & re-rolling to sub rogue took a toll on me in arenas.. trying to arena123 all that CC & other abilities is not easy & just want more time for FPS games.
That's why I quit for now.
Also legion had large updates every 70 days. For shadowlands it is expected to take 255 days from launch. Shadowlands isn't as detailed and refined as the other expansions. it feels like quick weekend work. Also the shadowlands it way too dark and modern. I miss old wooden caberns, sparkling fire places, green hills... Just a bit more the classic fantasy theme with dragons and unicorns, you get the vibe...
pepehands sadge stream
2 years later : solo Q has been added to the game ; didn't matter , savix and all the people that " wanted solo Q so bad it will save the game " quit the game faster than the other pvp players that didn't even necessarly ask for it ; and now play fulltime CLASSIC HARDCORE ; WOW . true clown
I played my first ever rated arena solo queue, my guy is a ww monk runs in and instantly dies I manage to kill 1 but sadly loose to the second guy with 10% hp left, team mate messages me "you should just quit the game and stop queuing you fucking trash ret cant even do a dps rotation" feels good to be back guys
EU already has a guild like this on stormscale for a insanly long time i think
On which server and what is the name? I am on outland and getting invited anywhere as someone who came back after long break is hard. Cant even get invited in mythic dungeons.
the fact that they keep adding power creeps through out the life of an expansion probably deters new players as well. they should normalize gear so a fresh 60 doesnt have half the HP of a geared 60, i understand its an mmo but most mmo's have normalized gear that dont increase in power from every update. this would promote playing your class skillfully and not relying on having gear. because at this point, wow has always been gear > skill. no body wants to play wow exclusively like a job just to be viable in competitive play. i always hated playing the new xpac on launch and being similarly geared to everyone, then i quit playing for a month or two and when i get back everyone has twice the amount of stats.
It's not just the new players who are quitting because of it, a lot of old ones too who no longer support this omnipresent and inappropriate elitism in this game.
And this observation on the pvp lfg is exactly the same on the pve side too.
I have been playing the game for 14 years and today this ubiquitous min/maxing mentality wears me out and takes me away any fun of the game.
As someone new to shadowlands who didnt played since mop, its really hard to pvp. I capped honor gear and luckily i have one friend playing with me and we play pretty solid, but what the fuck am i supposed to do against bis people spamming low rating? Gear shouldnt be locked behind high rating this late in season. Give them some elite pvp skins and shit, i am all for that, but seriously we are stuck. We win against 90% of enemy teams that are our gear, but every other team are bis players and you cant do shit against that big gap in gear, even though many of those teams suck, you just cant kill someone with 20% versatility. Also for pve content i cant get a single invite into mythic dungeon because i am playing new char without achivs. Really dumb that they dont give a fuck and we are stuck somewhat. We are still trying to climb a bit, but its really hard against super geared people that smurf low rating. Also they have automatic LFG for heroic dungeons but no for mythic. Why? If i have gear needed, just give me automatic group maker so i can at least try to get some achivs. Really stupid. Also thorgast, anima, honor farms, covenants and renown, like seriously tooo much, and then add gold gap for new players. Retail is insanely bad for coming back or new players. I play wotlk on private servers, its really not that punishing to gear up a new character and to reach LOD and RS 25 hc, even without achivs.
Why does Ian remind me of Doris from Shrek
I just wish for 1v1 so I can suck as much as I want but still be able to play :*(
Anyone else see the game time Purchase option went to 60 days play time instead of the 30 days? Um... wtf is this real?
Too late homie already quit, I'm out dawg, hope they give you solo queue sav :D
I skipped Shadowlands and I'm going back to play TBC xD
unfortunately you will undergo this same crappy situation at tbc when you want to do arenas. And the system will be even worse, it will be necessary to create a team before being able to enter the arena. Even on classic vanilla, elitism is omnipresent, it will be the same or even worse on tbc.
Well, at least on TBC, pvp gear upgrades alongside pve gear. You're not left behind.
New raids poppin ? Heres comes the new season... new gear with arena points... new gear with honor points.
It's way less tricky. Just spam bg to get some gear (and you can soloqueue that) and voilà. You'll have decent ilvl compared of the rest of the playerbase.
So no. Won't totally be the same as SL. WIll you find elitist along the way ? Yeah. But it's clearly more newcomers/reroll friendly.
@@Alex-im6or I know thanks, I play WOW since 2006
the answer is: Lost Ark.....Ichibyou keika.
Are there any guilds in the EU like stoopzz' one?
its sad that players like stoopz has to fix what bliz cant
its because no one is there and even when they are, they dont say shit. its like everyone in wow has some much social anxiety from playing wow they can't even just type hello. its like why would u want to play where u should be working and playing with other people but those people just feel like lifeless bots..
I don't think solo Q will fix the issue by no means look at TBC,wrath,cata the biggest Esports moments of wow. that is because people were more social and duel 24/7.
World of warcraft.. I can´t even recognize the game today. Maybe it has to do with the game, mby because of the playerbase. I was interested and played WoW because it was literally built on social interaction. You couldn´t get anywhere without it. These days it seems like the complete opposite. You can´t stay competitive if you don´t play solo using the LFG systems. I dunno if the playerbase changed the game or if the game changed the playerbase but I will never return to wow that´s for sure.
I did play classic and even there some plebs are minmaxing waaay to hard... but atleast you´d get in contact with people and the world felt so much more vivid and alive. My last expansion was Cata, and then I thought the world was plastic and empty.. I can´t imagine how it is now (I´ve followed the development in hopes of a fun and new turn for the game).
If you enjoy the game please let me know why or how, because from what I´ve been able to see and heard.. it sounds like garbage just like cata.
hey savix, you played wow classless ascension? have solo que sistem :D
i notice in skirmish being low geared, im always with a high rated healer. what if they are doing it but testing a algorithm? hmmm
It's only 9.0 and the gear scaling is so huge already. Gear is way too important. My favorite patch is historically X.0 because of the more even playing fields
Im hearing that this is bs and only people complaining about finding arena partners are 2k+ players who expect everyone to be as good as savix
Hearing? Just witness it for yourself
@@dannymoontattoos i would just dont wanna pay 40€ for shadowlands :/
@@wowgmplayer well the problems pretty real, the seasons too long, gear inflation is a thing now and the rating brackets don't make any sense. You try to hit 1400 and at 1k u run into people with 40k health already
1:01 anyone know where i can watch that clip of pikaboo?
Blizzard game are all DEAD because blizzard doesn't even care about players side.and that's why I'm one of those players who quited wow...
They can really make Wow ,Hots ,and Ow if they listen to the player base....
But they'll never do this
Snide soyboy venruki getting shiton and then says just grind bro
Tbh I quit wow because of all the out of game addons you MOST have in order to be competitive in pvp plus you have to have discord & after 2k CR people wont even let you play the fucking game If you dont have a mic.
Call me crazy but I think a game should come with everything I need in order to play it effectively ESPECIALLY if it's a monthly
Every CS GO match... Every League Match... Practically every competitive team v team game is SOLO QUE!
Just implement better in-game voice and let people solo que for arena. Yeah you'll lose, yeah you'll have some meh teammates, but the games will be quick, and people might actually find someone they like playing with that way.
They also should do that for PvE and remove the fucking io shit system, and say that as a Player pushing 20s... Its just redicilous how meta focused that shit game is in ANY aspect, even in low keys they "NEED BIG BLASTER MAGE DoS +4". Like really? What is that?
People leave after every expansion though?
Just make duelist gear obitainable to low ranked pvpers and ppl will stop crying about boosters
This is why I quit.
Should just get rid of the gear factor in arenas and rbgs honestly. Let it be about playing well and good communication. It sucks for alts and alienates new players. I can't even imagine doing arenas on a new char without friends.
Basically toxic players exclude any other player who isn't up to date on gear and what's min/max or FOTM, like Blizzard said ...community is the worst part of WoW.
CZcams Algorithm
New players are quitting because the game is not fun. I doubt it has anything to do with solo queue.
I created a beginners RBG group on Ruin Guild Tichcondrius (alliance) 8 months ago. You are way late. Agincourtt-Tichondrius
Did you also hang a portrait of Pikaboo in your room?
Darkmode please and bigger page
this is really great! pvp guilds are a great, the thing is i play on EU in a pvp server and the pvp guilds are most part dead and the ones that have players they will ask you rating!
i hope some great people fom EU that have the knolage to lead and help others do the same.
Blizzard needs to really listen to stoopz good chance they won’t though 😂
can you join from germany too?
so annoying when streamers cry for solo que when instead they should be trying to get the fucking pvp fixed in general....IF THE GAME WASNT ASS, MORE PPL WOULD PLAY....how hard is that to understand...ppl leave because the shit isnt fun for longer than a couple months.....how bout we fix that problem instead of trying to put a small Band-Aid on an amputated arm....
Trouble is, and always has been, is more people pve than pvp, only reason more people are pvping at early expansion is you had to in order to get better gear. Raids and mplus had dog shit gear compared to pvp. Then these pve players realised they can't even get the gear in pvp because it's harder than pve with boosters etc, so they all quit.
