Upsides of F2P

[Kearbear]

So, better to be 24 or 20 on aerie peak? lol.

As a f2p 20 not on AP (usually) I think I do ok. Running games solo is definitely a challenge, but I think the challenge is more fun than the premading process and the satisfaction I get from struggling for a win is more enjoyable to me than "well duh we won, it's a premade."

As for f2p v p2p 24,.... well the generally neglected air around PvP in all it's forms in this game has convinced me that as a PvPer paying a subscription would be a waste of money. There is no better perk to f2p than getting my fix without money being involved. No need to feel pressured to play, on for a few hours and then don't touch it for a month if you want, no pressure.

There are some random guilds that do premades, but lets be honest. Do you really need to premade with that much of a gear/enchant advantage?

IMO if you want to roll an underpowered class putting a few enchants on things is fine, but i despise those 24 pallies with 2-3k hp coming in fully buffed with a holy pally pocket heals and/or 3-4 24 hunters. *points finger at [won't say name, rhymes with shitster]*

PvP twinking is testing yourself against other people in a relatively even battle. Any 24 fully BoA'd and enchanted worth their salt should be able to take 2-3 normal non hunter classes. I guess I feel this way simply because having that much of an advantage is extremely boring to me, and other people (generally classified as baddies or other crude words) don't see it that way.

I generally don't mind a lone 24, or even 2 of them as long as 1 isn't a pocket heals, but 5 man 24 premades piss me off an ruin the bracket. It's worse when they farm.


Keep 2 sets of gear, 1 for normal pvp, the other for fighting off 24 premades

Any 24 premades up for the challenge? Instead of quickly 3 capping why not let us have some fun and strip a little so we can have a real game .
How often do the 24 premades even run into opposite faction 24 premades?

(Imo I do find critster to be a respectable player)

he's awful.

he's awful.

I beat him 1v1 on Duke on multiple occasions.

pros
FREE
Least bursty bracket (without 24's)
people are generally nicer
takes more skill and i find that atractive.
gearing takes work like it should
cons
nothing like a faith made to make u afk and go retake hala

i gotta ask, hopefully without starting any flame, but why do you think f2p takes more skill than any other bracket?

i have played all these brackets you're talking about, and i honestly dont see how it takes more skill to be a f2p, maybe more effort because of the grinding but not skill.

and i'm really not trolling, i would like to hear you opinion

 

[wut]

he's awful.

respectable =/= skilled

 

[verh]

respectable =/= skilled

I find him hypocritical tbh.

 

[Honey Badger]

F2p Honeybadger has a lot of respect for the ones that grind for their gear and professions. There are alot who don't put hardly as much effort. Honeybager made an alliance guild due to the being farmed by 20's. Then Honeybadger made a horde guild to help guildies get faster ques. Honeybadger is currently not supporting Alexstrasza F2P but p2p are welcome with guild perks.. " The f2p Alexstrasza project " since we can support both factions on the server will be in the works soon, just so much having to manage.

Alliance - Honeybadger likes vashj , Horde - has to be AP. That's Honeybadger's 2 cents


Several members asked me to go back to talking to 3rd person. FML...

4 level difference, bottom of the bracket for level
only can use profession level 100 enchants (110 for BE)
Difficult to get some Rumsey.

I wouldn't say it takes more skill per se, but it is more challenging than the other brackets.

yeah, i agree about the grind but thats my point, grinding isn't skill.

 

[Preeztess]

Wouldn't it be skill if you could compete in the NBA with only one arm? Same thing.

 

[hairy]

Never said he was good. Just respectable... he let's me ride my sandbox tiger in peace.. but maybe that's because he's afraid I'll make him pop AGM a third time

UPSIDES OF F2P:

Really fun AB premades !!!!!!!!!!!!!

All of you did really well, a special shoutout to the guys who selflessly stayed behind to defend farm (even though that seems pretty boring)

A special thanks to EVERY HEALER keeping us alive against 24 Hunters/Pallys, especially my partner-in-crime Itchycoo who really showed what CRAZZZZZY HEALS she is and managed to help me kill a hunter + warrior + A Wild Paladin has appeared! 2v3 on the road. *giggles*

An extra special thanks to the P2Ps to helped us group - Basket and Melvins, thankyou for continuing to support those of us who play WoW "cheaply" hehe.

And ONE final thankyou to everyone for being patient, coordinating a 15-man queue can sometimes be hard/frustrating when people aren't paying attention, but we got there and played some very exciting games!!!!

Really fun playing AB with you guys, if only every weekend was WSG/AB Call to Arms, then F2P would be heaven

AERIE PEAKERS, I LOVE YOU ALL. <3

he's not even respectable, but still awful. he wants "more competitive games' but ques 5+ 24s in games.

Not respectable, completely hypocritical.

 

[The Saint]

but a full premade of f2ps using skype is fine, your hypocrisy knows no bounds sir.

5 Veinte @ Aerie Peak - Game Guide - World of Warcraft vs 5 Critster @ Anub'arak - Game Guide - World of Warcraft, which seems more balanced?

you're funny. its rare that its 10 man, even though i dont really que f2plays anymore, when i'm on my 20 i'm arenaing. so a 5+ 24 man premade is comparable to a f2p premade? you sir are lost.

I wish F2Ps could have cool mogs like 24s.
