World of Warcraft fans usually have a blast playing Battlegrounds, but the long wait to get into a match just dampens their spirits. That will change very soon as Blizzard is hard at work creating new enhanced Battlegrounds servers.

The plan is to link together 16 realms per server to create a diverse PvP experience. Not only will it speed up the waiting time, but players will finally get the chance to duke it out with other players from other realms. The best part of the plan is that the enhancements will most likely be released in patch 1.12 or 1.13.

But it won't stop there, as Blizzard will add world rankings, tournaments, and ladders, essentially creating a Battle.net for World of Warcraft. Now that's something gamers can really look forward to.

 » Will make it more interesting..

But I wonder what will happen, will we be able to trade from server to server? Will this make the farmers job easier to affect more realms? Will I be able to make a trade online and meet a like faction person in the BG to complete it?

Will it make the waits better or worse? Are they just multiplying the problem of long waits?

I guess we shall see.....
