More Alterac Valley - /fail 2/14/10
I fought in a bunch of battles on Brieanna tonight and all I can say is the Alliance is sucking worse than usual. I fought in 12 battles, 2 wins and 10 losses. These people aren't even trying.
It's not that we were up against good Horde players, we weren't, it is just the people in there had no drive to win. And a lot of them didn't have any experience either. In the past few days I have seen more than one person get their first honorable kill if that tells you anything. On the rare occasion we win, a lot of people are getting their first Alterac Valley win achievement. This is a battleground you can start fighting in at level 51, this is the 71-79 bracket. Why are these people all of a sudden deciding to fight in there now? They probably heard it was holiday weekend and decided to get some extra honor, only problem is when you have too many inexperienced people all you are going to do is fail. We had a lot of uneven battles too, numbers wise. Half of them we started out with less than 30 players to the Hordes 40.
We are still having a problem with people going to Galv at the start and wiping. Same people, same results, you would think they would learn but they don't. In a few of the battles I got people to skip Galv and get IBGY instead. Then cap IBT and TP, then go and get Galv. That worked out pretty well, we got 2 towers and a GY anyway. I really don't think people know how to play in there and if what they are doing over and over again is any indication, they are not learning.
