Two things that came to me when thinking how to help GSF and the GSF community. 1) One of the ways SWTOR gains popularity and money is through cosmetic items. I believe players would enjoy being able to show off their ships and other items they have earned or bought in an area that functions similar to the fleets but it's where players can loiter around while in their decked out ships. 2) Have space world boss encounters. Have it instanced and similar to taking out turrets on bases. This would encourage teamwork in a safer environment. This would be a much better tutorial for newer players and it would give an alternative to the players not interested in PVP.

I didn't add instant lvl 60 tokens to the game. I didn't allow a damage spec to que as a healer. I didn't bolster a lvl 15 healer with 2 heals to lvl 65. I didn't bolster a lvl 15 tank with 1 taunt to lvl 65. I didn't slap 4 healing stations on a HM flashpoint and call it a tactical. I could go on. Trust me I've explained plenty of fights. But to answer your question it's the game's fault.

Hey, Go do Blood Hunt tactical through group finder. Tell us how that goes for you. Stream it. I dare you. This is supposed to be fun GROUP content. Too many times have I ended up having to solo boss after boss because the other 3 group members died and the flashpoint starts taking way too much time. Some of these can be soloed but I want to have fun with a pug group and run through these at a decent pace. I like the current system but some balancing is needed.

Good thing Bioware has focused ALL attention on adding one single story arc (for the foreseeable future) that you can't skip. That will make it easier for you I guess. lol

Pathetic

Thanks Bioware, Enjoy your annual 6 week Christmas vacation.

Only if the new PVP content was part of a larger commitment from Bioware to start adding more and new PVP content on a regular basis. Then you might start seeing a change in population. Also I don't think the population is horrible and I do see a healthy amount of new players join the PVP servers. ) I think the problem starts occurring when they are sitting in the Que for hours waiting for a pop and then they decide to change servers hoping for a faster Que.

Thanks. Happy Thanksgiving!

This patch is a complete disaster. These latest changes need to be reversed. Bioware claims to be doing what the players want but actually do the complete opposite.

Just do Cross Server please. Thank you.

I'm sorry but I can not reward someone for being the cause of the problem in the first place.

I have certainly seen a lot of suggestions around a server transfer for sure! This has a special place on my Wall of Crazy but it is not in my current roadmap.

I remember that post and it's still very frustrating and a little shocking to read and see so many concerns of the PVP community answered with a NO or Not at this time. In my opinion that post was the catalyst for the low population on the PVP servers today.

Bioware, please make Cross Server a reality. Thank you. Mergers aren't a good option since I lost most of my old character names in the last Merger.

Awesome! Love it.
