A little info on 1.12 from Eynix

"Please keep in mind that reputation is awarded when Honor is given, which means if you're in a group you will get it even if you weren't on the target's threat list. Players should also be pleased to know that come patch 1.12 you will be placed in a group upon entering Battlegrounds.

For now, just get yourself into a group. ;)

Also, patch 1.12 will have some awesome PvP stuff, like a cool battleground feature that I know you've all been waiting for!

There you have it, they are going to rond out the game after 1.11, with the issues that need looking at.


Taken from a poster:

hee hee, post edited. I can see why you'd edit the part saying people have been waiting for 'bigger' battlegrounds, because I've personally decided to not get into the painful, long, dragged out grindfest that is AV.

Oh that is interesting. What I believe it means is this:

-The "feature" is obviously cross-server battlegrounds
-And I believe the edited part may have been a reference to Azshara Crater which has been in the game for awhile but not opened yet. I suspect the reason is because frankly the game, as it is now, cannot support four battlegrounds. There are just not enough players to not make the queue times 5 hours long. But cross server definately can.

Should be interesting.

That was my first reaction as well. I have remembered since day 1 of the battle grounds I was sooo looking forward to these.

I remember posting about that, though the edit had nothing to do with Azshara Crater, something else if memory serves. But it's either cross server Battlegrounds (which I'm not sure of) or Siege weapons.

my server, silver hand, currently weighs in as a 1:4.6 ratio favoring alliance. i would happily accept cross server battlegrounds. what i would like to see though, is that my server's RP ruleset only merges with fellow RP servers. it would also be nice to see a list or note where your fellow fighters are from. so perhaps i'll see little tags that say feathermoon, or earthen ring.

i'm all for a cross server battleground, i just don't want d00ds ruining the experience for me with thier lame xbox chatter.

Anyways, I'd rather see cross-server BGs than Siege weapons. Sorry, as cool as siege weapons would be, I am in a similar situation to jov. My server has a rather unbalanced in the Alliance's favor, and more specific to me, there never seems to be a AB game under level 50, so maybe if there were cross server games, I would allow me a chance to play AB sooner. :)
