It would be much more convenient if you could turn WM on in EVERY city owned by your faction/neutral. Limiting it to Stormwind and Orgrimmar is rather stupid to be honest. Especially for people like me with slow af loading screens to cities...
I'm so glad Blizzard is really taking the time to test and fix updates going into 8.1. It really shows they learned their lessons from BfA's rushed development and poor communications. I'm sure pushing a feature like this, without any explanation or discussion with the player base, with less than a week until the patch drops, will only lead to good things...
its honestly not about the feature itself its about the lack of communication and how stupid this is. warmode i have it up all the time and never had any issues with huge ganking groups at all
It’s honestly kind of a backwards thinking feature in my opinion, if I were to do that it would be the opposite where you could turn it on wherever you want, but if you turned it on you were locked in it for good until you got back to Org or Stormwind
I would think the opposite would be better, allowing you to turn on Warmode in rested areas and only disable it in your faction city. Otherwise why limit it at all outside of rested areas if you are going to allow players to "escape" by running to any rested area rather than just Org.Though Zyrkun does make a valid point about 120s camping low-level alts. So much for character scaling so that a low-level would have a chance against level capped / geared players.
The only reason i can think of them doing it this way is because when doing dungeons, that one person thats in warmode that gets to summoning stone cant help summon anyone. So makes it easier for them to go to the rest area that close so they can turn it off so they can help summon instead of waiting for two people with it off to do it. Other than that, i dont see any real benefit from the change
A good change to help prevent continuous ganking and camping. I still wish they'd just go back to the old PvE and PvP servers though.
Oh no somebody got corpse camped and went straight to the forums to complain how he's paying to play to game and they've got all these "toxic" people in war mode that don't let "everyone else" to play the game and how he really wants to participate but he's playing Alliance and it's just so unfortunate because the Horde always outnumber them no matter where they go!
It's a good change, but I think it would be better if they let you change it in at least one city from each continent instead of having to go to Orgrimmar/Stormwind just to activate it and then going back to Zuldazar/Kul Tiras, for some people, three loading screens takes a really long time
This is the most ridiculous and stupid change I have ever seen implemented in WoW.Ally can change in and out of warmode anywhere but Horde can only do it in Org. It takes all but 1-2 minutes to go from Stormwind to anywhere in BFA. Alliance doesn't want to do PvP you cannot change that fact!
