"Battlegrounds

You can now only queue as a solo player into Battlegrounds.
Reset the Battleground matchmaking ratings for all players.
Developer Comment:
This is a big change to Battlegrounds matchmaking which we are executing partially in response to player feedback and partially as an experiment. We recognize the change will prevent players from being able to reliably team up with friends in Battlegrounds, but it should also improve both the speed of matchmaking and the competitiveness of PvP matches. As part of the change, we are resetting the matchmaking rating (MMR) of all players, so going forward, the system more properly evaluates individuals based on their performance in the solo queue. We’ll be closely monitoring both player feedback and the impact of these changes on the system."

I really really really really really hope this doesn't go live. Frankly I don't care if it will "improve the speed of matchmaking" people can gosh darn wait patiantly and stop being insta gratification kid's. I ONLY play Battlegrounds with my partner in real life, and we enjoy Battlegrounds because we personally don't have good enough PC's to run Cyrodiil at a competative level, now to be forced to queue solo and possibly even forced to fight against one another on oposite team's is absurd. Frankly me and my partner have come to the conclusion that if this change go's live, we will not be doing any Battlegrounds at all for the foreseeable future and we personally feel robbed of an activity we do for several hour's a day cus we enjoy it so much.

And for all those who say "oh thank god now I won't get stomped by premades" well frankly if ZoS's matchmaking rating system actually worked you wouldn't anyway, the entire point in the system was to stop premades and venetran PvP'ers from stomping newer or more casual player's in the first place. So don't blame the premades, blame ZoS's incompetent MMR system. Frankly even if me and my partner odly got put against a premade 4 man team using tactic's, we still fought out asses off and used gorrilla tactics and sneaky strats to attempt to win. In one case it actually worked, on a chaosball match on Ald Carac our 2 team mates quit the BG and Purple and Orange team kept fighting to get the chaosball and Orange where dominating due to there cordination, me and my partner kept using stealth potions to sneakily grab the ball and kite around objects, once we got close to dieing we would roll off the edge of the map and the other one of us would rush to the center to grab the ball as it reset's, we actually ended up witha super close victory that match with some luck with the purple team not targetting us all that much.
