I liked that they brought new maps. I didn't like the maps themselves, but I liked that they actually did something for us BGers.N/AI liked the conquest point addition to random BGs, so at least I could actually get the same - well close to the same gear as arena folks.1. I cannot play the way I want and be equally rewarded as people who for example like arena. The conquest point addition was nice, but it's really just a trickle compared to what you can gain in arena.You should be able to get the same exact rewards for any form of PVP in my opinion.PVP should be about the act of PVP itself, not about the rewards. While I understand that people like to be rewarded, I feel that different tiers of rewards are really just punishment for people don't "play the right way".2. BG queues. This basically is an extension of the above. I know they added a random BG queue because no one wanted to play SotA, and they sweetened up the deal by giving you a bonus, but all it really translated to was a punishment for playing the way you wanted to.If I want to play AV all day long, I have to miss out on the bonus for spending the same amount of time. That is basically punishing me for playing how I want to play.When I PVP, when I really want to PVP, I am not there for the reward - but, at the same time, I feel like I'm being cheated if I don't play a random BG. I hate most of the random BGs. They're just bad.The fact that they still get gear 100x faster than me if I am doing BGs.World PVP punishes you for dying. It's always been this way, but it's an extremely outdated mechanism. If you die in the world (anywhere actually) you are punished more and more each death, in that you have to wait longer and longer to rez.When you do rez, you're all wounded and at half resources, with no buffs anyway - and during that time the person that killed you has already buffed up, wandered off, had a sandwich, came back, did a little dance, and is still all healthy and ready to go and kill you again, when you finally are able to rez ... half dead.This is basically their whole philosophy with PVP. If you lose, you are punished, so let's reward the person that wins even more. People that are at the top of arena have always got the best gear. People that do the BGs they want to do, don't get squat, because they don't get the bonus, and they don't get conquest points, so they'll be hundreds of days behind (literally) on gear if they play the way they want to.It's just bad PVP philosophy. Unfortunately, it looks like their only potential future competitor (Guild Wars 2) has decided this is an awesome idea, and they've thrown out the idea of balancing PVP on large scale battles. Just terrible.I don't want more vehicle combat.I want a huge war-field, jam packed with people, and sure, throw in some NPCs.I want to be a part of an ongoing war against the other faction.I don't want to run back and forth waving little flags at each other.I want a war, not a relay race.Go dig up the guy that made classic AV, and throw a truck load of money at him, and ask him nicely if he'll restore AV to its glory days as a separate queue, with scaling NPCs that remain a hard fight regardless of the gear levels. Then if he's really in a good mood, ask him to make a few more AV maps. Say Orc vs Night Elves, a real fight over Ashenvale and the Barrens instead of playing with flags. Maybe actually put the real Battle for Gilneas in.Murderball.PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE just flat out copy Mourkain Temple. Steal it. Please. Just copy it exactly. Don't break murderball. PLEASE don't break murderball. I beg of you, don't break murderball.
