On WoW’s Battleground Matchmaking System…

WoW's BG matchmaking system in place but not working as intended yet - Image 1

Players are currently complaining as to when Blizzard will roll out the Battleground Matchmaking System in World of Warcraft. However, the truth of the matter is, the system has been in placed for some time now. If that’s the case, it is then interesting to know why players are having these complaints at all.

But as forum moderator Drysc recently pointed out at the official WoW community forums, there are a lot of contributing factors why it seems and feels like the system is not working as intended. One of the most obvious one is that not a lot of players are interested in the Battlegrounds.

The blue poster added that Blizzard made the BG matchmaking system working loosely because it doesn’t want players spending several hours just waiting for an opponent. Drysc mentioned that this will change if the population of the battlegrounds increase in the future. He elaborated:

That is mostly based on the battlegrounds themselves, new battlegrounds coming, and probably ultimately how well they’re incentivized. All things we’re aware of, and all things that (AV changes, AFK reporting, queue changes, new battlegrounds, new rewards) we’re seeing come to a solution at a single point on the horizon.

We hope this thing sorts itself soon because we don’t want to see the arrival of the Lich King being spoiled and players getting disappointed just because of problems like this.
