Ability to queue for specific battlegrounds?

LordTareq

I absolutely hate the orc battleground with the snowstorm. The snowstorm is just plain annoying and drops my framerate, and I find the whole battleground design even without the snow poorly thought out. Definitely the worst battleground out of the bunch imho. Would love to get the option to queue for specific battlegrounds!

At least being able to blacklist would be nice.

I would like to be able to blacklist the new map at the very least. No one thought that allowing sorcs to streak on top of objects where they can't be reached by melee was a bad idea, I guess? Oops.

Yeah the last battleground has its problems for sure. AOE is dominating atm, so who thought it would be a great idea to have a claustrophobic battleground consisting mainly of narrow hallways?

Yea, I don’t like the new one either. It’s like they intentionally decided to make a clustered BG to mess up ranged NBs. Poor guys, even teleporting from the spawn puts you into the middle of a brawl they can’t get away from.

My main problem with the new map is it often just dumps you right into the action. Like, you go through a portal, BOOM, instantly near or in the middle of a fight.

I hate the new one. Anyone else get the weird stun while at their spawn point and still waiting for the game to start?

I swear, sometimes I hear the battle music going and the sound effects from combat, but we’re still “waiting for players”.

*** buggy as ***.

Arcane University is the bestest

Ok I haven't seen the new map yet cuz I'm on console but this sounds like a good thing?

The new map is absolutely terrible. I hate it so much. Would love to be able to queue for specific matches and leave that garbage to rot.

Don't care for the new map at all.

Standard experience on new map:

1. Port right into middle of active fight. Die.
2. Port into safe area. Waste precious time trying to find teammates.
3. Find teammates. Waste precious time trying to find enemy.

And don’t even get me started on how this map is a dream come true for Cyrodiil rock huggers. Or how ridiculous it is that I can be hit with a Velidreth proc that has travelled through a wall. The new map is a chaotic mess, and it is WAY too difficult to rejoin your group when you die.

I think the new map is great!
It's easy to regroup or jump back into a fight through the portals, there's lots of LoS opportunities, there's a good degree of vertical movement in combat, and it looks really good!

It definitely makes capture the relic games a little extra chaotic though haha

The new map is great!

Just buff up before you enter the portal and surprise them...

It really in not hard to find your team at all. Just look at the compass...

If there were more players to match, then we could implement some blacklisting. But right now there are problems with finding enough teammates.
