BG is Broken Mega Thread

I have no idea, what ZoS see in they analytic, but BG has been broken for really long time, that leads me to think, non of ZoS employees do PVP at all.
So I decided to make one big thread, where we display how unfinished and rushed BG is. Please keep it nice and add suggestions.

First Im starting with classic situation. 2v4v4. Like how can these king of matchmaking exist? By the time your team gets more players, most of the time, game is already lost.

Second problem is, to balance out BG need to have different point calculation. If one team is in lead their points need to go slower, then for team, that is last. Otherwise in most of situation, there is no chance, for other teams to make a comeback.

I have a lot of these kind of screenshots. 80% of the games in BG is ether, on team most of time has not enough players or one team smash everybody.
In my eyes BG is unfinished system. Taking out option to play with your friends was extremely lazy approach to fix these.

BG needs 4 things:
1. Let us queue with at least on friend.
2. Match making need to be fixed, until all players haven't joined, match just can't start.
3. For leaving match need to be penalty - AP fee would be fair.
4. Need to have progressive point system. If the gap between leading team and other teams is big, not leading team points need to go with accelerated rate, so they have chance to catch up.
4.1. Progressive system can help with unbalanced teams also. If there is situation, where someone need to play 2v4v4. team with 2 players need point or even Hp boost. (In cyrodill exists low faction bonus, why there is nothing in BG).

    I personally miss playing along side my partner, so the sooner they open a queue for duos, the sooner I will be happier.

    Battlegrounds is unique content; I've been playing since beta and the content is still new in the history of the game or more specifically it was requested at a high level but implemented long after the game had matured. The point being ZOS responded to player requests and provided this unique feature; it is fun, it is great, and yes it is odd ball some times and not in a good way. I have personally always found the rewards for daily random play to be irksome; being the on the top 2 of 3 teams to get the reward coffer. Being second place in the Olympics is meritorious and something to be proud of; being second place in a 3 race of three ppl is called losing.
    Baskin Robbins always finds out.

    500-0-0 game is not an excuse for wanting slower/faster points gain for winners/losers.

    BGs sucks because performance sucks. When I can play a lagless BG, I will provide feedback

    It's an unfinished minigame but also sadly the only real place to PvP in eso a game in which SO much of the available sets and builds are for PvP and the realtime combat truly excels, all it would take is a little bit of effort to make the PvP scene LIT

    Group vs Group BG would bring so many people back, also PvP is way more interesting to view on streams which is what brings tons of players to games these days.

    People are cooped up and need to get the frustration out in a harmless way, MAKE IT SO
