    PvP arggggg

    I don't get it. I don't have that sort of experience at all in Darth Malgus. Maybe the US servers are simply toxic? Unless you are facing a pre-made. At that point, yeah, just take the debuff and go do something else until they are no longer around. The debuff is still a good thing. But, the win requirement is not something i feel too strongly about. But, i get where they are coming from to have people actually try rather than just not care. I dunno. I am not feeling those pains.
  2. Vote to kick systems are two edged swords indeed. I confess, and this might speak more to me as a player that tends to respect other's time, i have experienced more vote to kick abuse than legitimate use in this game. Though it happens on others too. It is probably easier to auto-detect a player that is afk or disconnected and auto-kick them from the group after X time than it is to ever be able to stop human beings from behaving like total trash. Also, people are more mindless than ever these days and just the pop up of the vote to kick screen is answered with a yes just to get it outside people's screen's, without any thought given. I have seen the system abused in that manner over and over again and it is often a matter of who managed to vote kick the other first. Because most people don't care and just want to get the flashpoint over with. So, yes. If you can add detection systems for afk/disconnect please remove the vote to kick function in flashpoints too.
  3. I know i didn't communicate it well, but yes, i agree with you. I would be pissed off if i was doing edge raiding or PvP'ing and was forced to do the other. What i meant is that i understand the problem they are trying to solve, which is to incentivize participation on certain types of content and introduce a catch-up mechanism for struggling raid groups. Incentivizing is ok, forcing is not. Adding a slower method of acquiring these for casual players though, would basically solve the problem for all as casual content is within reach of all players. That is kind of where i am coming from. In particular, i think the place for it is conquest as it has been for many months. The speed at which we can craft them can be adjust in the crafting material requirements. To stop stacking alts, if it's a problem, they can always just allow the reward X times per account per week. But, tbh with you, now being more self-centered is that these upgrades will find their way to top end players and then they will use them to cut off other players. My main content is regs atm. Organized pre-mades are already a problem. You can bet these people will come to regs with their pre-made and wreck even more havok, further hurting the queue and enjoyment of other players. Basically, this plan has everything to worsen the situation of all players, while only marginally improving the situation of some. It's not an exciting prospect the way it is being handled now.
  4. Gonna be honest here. I understand why you are doing it. But, it will mean pain to everyone that is not a top end player. You could at least give a slower method of acquiring the materials for more casual players to also have objectives to strive for.
  5. There is no such thing as a republic side. Warzones are mixed with both factions. Flawed, one sided argument. No one is stopping you from playing with your friends in the modes for pre-made groups. It does not entitle you to ruin the experience of those that want to have a quick casual drop in drop out experience.
  6. No? Why do i need to get over it? They need to get over the fact that no one wanted to play with them and it doesn't entitled them to come ruin other people's experiences. Btw it's time to realize that there is a difference between a random pug and an organized pre-made. This is not about your silly group that is just messing around. It's about organized arena groups that focus burst targets in 2 seconds and are geared to the teeth with ideal comps and peels. Warzones are not competitive arenas. Those people have no business in casual PvP with their premade. They should have to follow the rules everybody else is. The only way to enforce it is to limit how many can queue at once and force them to fight each other as much as they can fight together.
  7. You are only griefed cause you are too lazy to port to the fleet and buy the vaccine from the bar. At this point, maybe you deserve to be griefed? Don't be lazy. You have the power to fix your problem.
  8. Implying that when you queue solo you aren't playing with others. Problem aren't pugs, it's organized groups. In fact, there is a premade vs premade mode, but alas it's deserted. So, if that mode is deserted it means there isn't enough interest eh? It doesn't entitle you to come ruin the fun of those queuing randomly on their own mode for casual pvp. This is like a kid that broke his toy and then is trying to break the toy of the kid next to him too. It's gonna be fun when there is no more toy for anyone cause of that selfishness. The mode is supposed to be fun for all, not just for the few that exploit it. Especially with the penalty now, people will just stop queuing for that nonsense. Oh and btw, back in the day there were no voice coms and min-maxing. We live in a different world now.
  9. 15m is the standard of these penalties. They are not rewards for the leaver, they are penalties. They are not supposed to be convenient. They are supposed to incentivize you from not leaving games and making a worse experience for everyone else. Sure, we are getting WZ selection from what the devs said. But, don't think it will be all roses. It will mean less map variety and longer queue times. Not so cool when you think of that eh? Nope. Huttball has been awesome since day one bar net code issues which have nothing to do with it. You don't like it? It's a you thing. I mean, you say that but then proceed to do it. Which is you saying: I joined for Warzones, but i don't like this map and will send another person here that might or might not like this map and then he leaves too, etc. leading to trains, losing matches and queue ruined cause this was allowed in the first place. It is exactly an example of the selfish behaviour i was talking about. You want to think you are doing a good thing, but you aren't. You are exploiting the system. You queued for a Warzone and you got a warzone. I can understand when it comes to Arena cause it's a different game structure (4v4), but you were doing no one any favors by leaving those matches. It's win-lose if anything. Win cause matches are now more stable wihtout people leaving and joining all the time and actually trying to win, rather than just lolz about (though there are some who still do that ofc). Lose is only for those that like you would leave matches at the first sign of not being exactly what you wanted. Hey, we will see how that is gonna end up. I just hope the queue timers aren't so screwed up that it will be end of regs as well.
  10. I mean... really?! "Lets ask the devs to work on this cause i'm too lazy to port to the fleet and buy a stack of vaccines from the bar" Of course. Of course dev time should be used like that. We don't have more pressing matters. It literally take you one minute to solve the problem.
  11. Oh yes, terrible devs for making what every other mmo makes. The penalties are there for a reason. The penalty is not the problem. Pre-mades are. They need to make regs a solo or no more than 2 man queue. Also no, Huttball is awesome and your post proves why the penalty is necessary cause in a tirade of self interest you ruin the game for some and the queue for others. So, yes, you do deserve a penalty if you do that.
  12. Honestly, i don't agree. Snipers can only heal with roll (20 sec CD) and if you catch them outside hunker, they will melt. They have a lot of defensive's cause they need them. If there is no healer there, so they can dps, they are not that strong.
  13. As pointed out, the level lock is in place so they don't have to re-balance everything with every expansion. It is not an ideal situation, but it is a logical one from a development pov. So, any suggestions you have, you should give them with regards to how to improve the system. Suggesting to remove it, is not helpful.
