reading the part2 info

Quote:
We definitely are aware that the experience can start to degrade if the Battleground is completely packed with several hundreds of players; the sides begin to lose cohesion, individuals feel less able to contribute to the whole cause, and the potential evolves for a lop-sided affair. So we do have a cap on the number of people on each side that can enter a Battleground. Rest assured we want the two sides to be fairly matched. However, if you have to wait for your turn to enter the Battleground, you can still adventure in the rest of the game world before you are summoned to fight.


so is it going to be instanced, where they mean by wait is
till each side gets x number of people to show up
or
is it going to be a single battlegrounds and have to wait your turn to get in

No one here is a blizzard employee, unless you need help with your reading comprehension you're not going to get an answer really.

Judging by the wording of the article the answer to your questions is as follows:

"till each side gets x number of people to show up"
no

"is it going to be a single battlegrounds and have to wait your turn to get in"
yes

I just hope they'll count kills outside the battleground for whatever reward system they have in place... at least that way I could do some meaningful PvP outside the battlegrounds, while I wait to get ported in (mid fight, of course)

Aye i see why this is necessary. And if they're willing to teleport you in, that's great.

I just go grind loot out somewhere and wait for a summon click =)
