How do you feel about cross-faction grouping? twitch.tv/MrGM
but sadly no guilds with humans and taurens )-:
Dose that mean I can play a night elf in the horde ?
As a pandaren main this is my most wanted feature in the game and I'm so happy to be able to play with all my friends and live that neutral life, I'll just put on a blue or red shit depending on who I party with, no one could tell the difference lol :3
awes0me Dan
The factions have worked together enough times to stop literal gods that PvP seems to be the outlier of immersion nowadays.
I haven't been a big fan of the concept of cross faction grouping, but I am interested to see how it works out, then again I don't play WoW anymore but from what I have seen a lot of people seem happy about it, so I say why not. 🙂
Nooooooooo
really? no dungeon finder? that would've lowered the queue times by quite a bit. shame
I have a hunch that they were preparing this for 10.0, but with the current situation, decides to do this in 9.2.5
Yeeesss siirr!! 🤘🏻
👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽. This could be solved in many great ways but thats a lazy god dammit way to solve this problem. Da fuck a night elf and orc at the same dungeon, atleast they could solve this by Mercenary Mode like in BG you get token and transfer character into a certain race. Dumbass change made me angry af
What will be the future of adding races?
Honestly they just need to make goblins able to be cross faction. Let me go to any city, trade with anybody. I could consider coming back for something like that.
I'm all for it. I hope questing and trading can be included in the future.
I think its a great addition! And it actually make sense. How many times have Alliance and Horde had to work together anyway? So why not let people decide if they want to help each other out! It makes our characters much more personalized. For example… my character is not some crazy Horde-only guy. He just wants to help out. And he doesn't care if its Horde or Alliance on his side. Sure its called Warcraft, but giving players a choice is way more fun!
Blizzard just needs to add Cross Faction in general like guilds, there is still restrictions on what you can do with this feature so don't think its going to help the Alliance really. It seems to be like this in every expansion where the Horde and Alliance fight at the start and come together anyways at the start of the expansion or near the middle and "help" each other anyways. so why not just get rid of the split factions and allow Horde and Alliance join what guild they want, The major cities can still have the split so horde isn't running around in Stormwind and same with the Alliance in Org.
Well, I know this will piss off specific people like Anduin haters.
At this point the two factions have had to team up so many times that it doesn't even really make sense to have them as separate entities anymore. I mean yeah, from player standpoint it really is a matter of preference and which side you like to be on but in the end the races of azeroth have come together so many times to face the greater threats that it really serves no purpose at this point to keep them completely separated and unable to interact with each other.
After four major wars between the two factions, and the fact that there have been so many major players from both sides not necessarily switching teams but working voluntarily with the other side, I think it really stands at this point that peace between the two factions and available cooperation between players should be a thing.
The PVP aspect of the game is really just a gameplay feature and not any kind of story. I mean come on, are the two factions really still fighting over Alterac Valley and Arsthi basin for the past 20 years with neither side actually claiming it?
In the end I will probably continue to always play alliance but it would be good to at least be able to group up with my friends who play the opposite faction.
Pretty simple way to make pvp work with the cross faction narrative, Its a training exercise for upcoming battles and source of entertainment for both factions, I'd even love to see same faction battlegrounds honestly
Wat. Not LFG?
Thought of everyone ending their streams seeing the news, cursing and rushing to do hair and makeup and get a video out asap.
I could live without PvP but I'll take it. I'm salivating thinking of all the people I can group with. Recruiting sucks. The Horde has tons of people but they're all harvested so efficiently. Alliance has slim picking but I know so many people who play Alliance.
Unfortunately it will made finding slot in raiding even more harder because try hards will take only classes with races called ther best, i.e human – priest, LD – paladin etc. I like idea but it will make new problems.
They should just open all races to both factions. Keep the horde and alliance, but make all available to both.
They need it for classic
In the famous words of Tychus Findlay: "Well, hell… it's about time."
microsoft already fixing wow
So I won’t be able to do things with my friends unless I post the group in the finder? Anyone able to confirm?
I've been on a private server where, because there's not as many people, I got thrown into dungeons with horde while I was alliance. If they can do it, it won't be that hard for Blizz.
Really happy this is happening
Even though I no longer play WoW I find prospect of grouping with Horde revolting
I’m for it. Especially the possibility of cross faction guild. I don’t want to see it in Classic.
expansion will be out in 2023
Great thing. More needs to be down for cross-faction. Though PVP needs to be re-think as this huge part of WoW.
I joined a large and very active epic Bg community in the winter of last year and i have had the best time for me in game since the hey days of Wrath this last year and it has breathed new life into the game for me .
There is a very active epic BG community on the US servers for allie and horde and we on the horde side have developed some pretty good rivals with allied side and we see the same ppl for the most part all the time its pretty cool and gives a feeling like old days when you would fight the other faction from your server .
Horde community is named " Savage Alliance Slayers " ( SAS) and allied side has Ruin and Shadows of Death ( SOD)
Before this i was kind of down on the community feature in game as it didnt seem to be embraced ,imo, by the players very well but that changed for me when i found some that shared my interest . Im happy i found a large group that thinks like i do that there is more to pvp than Wpvp and arenas
This being said i hope this near cross faction stuff will help grow the feature , but i know that there are still clowns out there that will never play with some one on the other side and to me thats silly but that may be more a thing in the pvp area of game
What i want to see with this in time is both sides are in same pool for random epic and BG ques so we all get shorter que times
So stupid. Haven't played since WoD except for private servers… but I can't believe retail wow has fallen so low.
what language will it say people are speaking?
It's nice to see the official/retail version of the game several years behind private servers with enabled cross-faction grouping clearly ascension Devs didn't have much of a challenge.
That sucks if you’re going to allow cross faction play it should be in random bgs and lfg and raid finder as well
I think it's a good direction. I just wish they would implement it in LFD/LFR as I think it would decrease the interminable queue times.

For the Horalliance
This DOESN'T save the Alliance. Just to be clear here. It only lets people over LFG, RID, and in game Communities to invite others across factions. So you haft to have Horde or Alliance friends that you actually know and want to raid with. And you haft to find people who are actually recruiting even cross faction and willing to do RID, Community invites for each and every raid. Now this has to eventually end up with Cross Faction guilds at some point. Possibly 10.0. But because cross factions doesn't reach the guild level this creates obstacles for both the players and the guilds they are wanting to raid with. Guild bank consumables, repairs, guild bank access etc etc. So you are basically a cross faction PUG until they eventually decide that cross faction guilds is needed. Honestly I think they are finally doing this for multiple reasons that aren't really based in "caring" about the community. Seeing as FF14 has been crushing them and they have banned carrying communities. So they will obviously see a down turn in wow token income. So they are most likely hoping for that faction change income from people hoping they can still raid with friends and be Alliance or Horde. Faction and Race changes are both big money for Blizzard especially if millions of people do this AND they do it for their alts as well. This is definitely a "For the money" move but it's overall a step in the right direction for the game.
Except communities dont have achievements, benefits like mail, vendors, guild repairs, guild banks etc and so on (:
Still won't play this crap expansion.
