2009-06-19 PvP Q&A with Blizzard's Cory Stockton

Oh, man. That last bit made me want to change my underwear. Blizzard is actually paying attention to Battleground enthusiasts, realizing that while Arenas are nice and all, a lot of players love the BGs, too. New Battlegrounds "as often as we can?" Yes, please! Head on over to the official site to read Stockton's interview in full. Bombs, cannons, parachutes, angry Generals... 3.2 is shaping up to be one explosive patch, indeed. Blizzard's Lead Content Designer Cory Stockton answered quite a lot of questions about the upcoming PvP changes in Patch 3.2. There are a lot, particularly the experience gains in Battlegrounds which also has deep implications in PvE as players can simply toggle experience gains off (any Level 60s up for Molten Core?). It's a pretty lengthy interview and Stockton goes into detail with the new Isle of Conquest Battleground. Some highlights from the chat: Experience gain in Battlegrounds is slightly slower than questing or grinding Players can toggle experience gain on and off with a mere 10 Gold There are plans to include greens and "the occasional blue item" at the end of each Battleground match (!) but won't make it to Patch 3.2 The Isle of Conquest is in the Frozen Sea, North of Icecrown Objectives in Isle of Conquest are captured exactly like flags in Arathi Basin -- I totally called this wrong when I said it would probably be a numbers and proximity thing Battlemaster Achievement isn't likely to change (whew!) but Blizzard is considering what to do with the Achievements for the Isle of Conquest Rated Battlegrounds are coming. Not quite soon®, but an announcement will be made during BlizzCon Blizzard plans "to deliver more Battlegrounds to the players as often as we can"
