I wonder who suggested 2 team battlegrounds would be good idea.

Battleground was a 3-teamed arena. That was the whole point. Because; there was a element of suprise, strategy and sometimes luck. But; now it is broken disgusting something I cannot define without being rude. Map is absurdly small. When you spawn, enemy team bombards you. !!!MAP IS NOT JUMPABLE!!! Also, because of new map size there is no element of suprise. What is the point then? Why have you chosen to destroy a thing which works just fine? If you want to add new format just do it. Name it 2-Teamed Battleground and name former one as 3-Teamed Battleground. To be able to add something new, you don't have to destroy prior one. I seriously do not understand. I want former Battleground format back as soon as possible.

Two possible solutions to the spawn killing dilemma.

Randomize spawn points.
Nerf cross-healing.

To claim that “Team vs Team” is problematic is to ignore the countless successful games that have two team variants.

*On a side note, I do agree there is room for all game modes, including what we had prior.

People had been asking for 2-sided BGs on the forums for years--other major MMOs have 2-team battlegrounds that work well. I always liked the 3-way ones because you don't come in last place as often and it's somewhat of a check on one team being very strong, but I want more experience before comparing them too much.

3 team battlegrounds work just fine for dm, but not for objective matches
Most games have 2 team objective matches and battlegrounds, and are very popular

And that's what they said on the stream releasing the new BGs
