It's super fast, very exciting, and everyone from my PvP guild seems to adore it. Great team-building, too, not that we need it. I myself especially love the domination and deathmatch ones, though I'm not yet a huge fan of capture the relic. That one will probably be more fun when our teams get the gear necessary to do well in that, with the run speed stacking and all that fun. But yeah! Anyone else having a total blast with these?

    For the record, almost no one is a big fan of the Capture the Flag BG.

    It's one of my favourite game modes. That and Domination.

    I'm a fan. More thst i can just flick the box on and get into a scrap in minutes, great if you don't have much time.

    It's annoying when its 4v2v2 and you queued solo

    Stamina feels OP as hell, as does proc.

    Id prefer a solo server and group. If you are a PUG against a BG specific team, you have no chance.

    Domination is definetly my favorite. And i got to say deathmatch is the least one, cause of those cheesy sigils. They need some heavy rework.

    I honestly don't even know why those sigils exist. Whenever an enemy team picked it up, our group would literally hide and wait for it to wear off.

    I'm definitely not making any comments on balance quite yet as I've played, like, ten matches total and can't really speak from experience. I also roll with one of the top AD PC NA guilds so I have the privilege of running exclusively with premades, taking from some of the best fighters in the game, so I'm sure the pug experience is much more frustrating. Hopefully they can make some more improvements to the queue system so you're not matched against premades so much!

    Agree with pretty much everything, OP. CTF is still a bit clunky to me and seems to depend on luck a lot of time. Whereas TDM and Domination seem much more balanced. But overall I love BGs. Assuming the queue gets fixed in the incremental patch this week I'll be pretty much spending all my time in them.

    For some reason I think this is a group of players BGing.
