Why are Battlegrounds forcing people to play PvP modes they do not want to play?

As per title...why are battlegrounds forcing players to play TDM that do not want to play TDM and perhaps just want to play CTF or domination? I have not seen a reasonable explanation for this yet.
Randomly choosing which PvP mode people play be DEFAULT is not "ESO: play how you want". For players who want to random queue there should just be an OPTION to do so..not by DEFAULT.

Force weapon swap to have priority over EVERYTHING. Close enough.
Make stamina builds even with magicka builds.
Disable abilities while holding block.
Give us a REASON to do dungeons more than once.
Remove PVP AoE CAP. It is ruining Cyrodiil.
Fix/Remove Forward Camps. They are ruining Cyrodiil.
Impenetrability needs to REDUCE CRIT DAMAGE. Not negate entire builds.
Werewolf is not equal to Vamps/Bats.

0rnge✭✭I remember on eso live that guy said something about once there are more game modes they want to add a feature to select game modes. I don't know why they can't add it now though. I just imagine play team fortress and not being able to pick a game mode, it's a big deal because if you really don't like a game mode what will stop people from just leaving the match and re-entering a queue? I agree it should be an option.PC | EU | DC

✭This probably has more to do with dealing with queue times. Spreading pop in 4 queues (1 for each and 1 for any) would make it at least 4x harder to get a match done, not considering other queue factors as premades / solo queues.
In the long run people will be forced to a single match type which would be the most popular match, the easiest or the more exploitable.
In the end this could be a case where the infamous RNG can be beneficial.PC/DC/NAserver

✭✭✭✭✭It should be random between the different styles built. Otherwise some will have to wait and wait for the queue to pop.
Battleground type pvp works best this way and saying something like this isn't ESO seems more like grabbing for straws because one wants it a different way.0 -
Moglijuana✭✭✭✭✭It's randomly selected so pre-made teams can't build to dominate one specific type of game mode. It forces teams to build with a balanced composition.
I.e a full tank group would be decently strong in CTF/Domination but horrible in TDM etc.Edited by Moglijuana on April 18, 2017 2:50PM1 -

✭✭✭✭This is the best thing they did in the entire patch. As others have said, dominating one game mode with cheese group comps will not be possible. For example, you can't queue up 4 troll tanks for dominion or 4 speed stacking Stam sorcs for capture the flag.V16 Uriel Stormblessed EP Magicka Templar(main)

I think it might just require a critical mass of enough people participating in the battlegrounds before they can start to offer more specific queue options. If Morrowind sells a lot of copies and BG becomes popular, probably a good chance you will see more maps, more game modes and ability to queue for specific map/mode.0
