1.1.5 Just got Updated.

40 commendations FROM MEDALS. You do know that all the commendations you get right now don't come from medals?

I don't think we are seeing the full picture. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that these changes are coming in gradually. Who knows what Ilum will eventually look like.

Remember guys and gals, Ilum was never implemented properly on release. They have bandaged it all they can and they recognize I am sure from all the negative feedback that it is a terrible PvP zone.

So let them have time to fix it and enjoy the WZ cred goodness.

Honestly, Ilum had become base camping and armament gathering. Nonsence.

40 Bonus coms per match. You still want to win to maximize your comms. With this it looks liek a winning match will liekly be aroudn 100 coms and a losing match will be around 80. win and you get 4k valor, lose and you get 2k + losing bonus. All in all you still get rewarded fro winning but its less painful to lose.

Realized though I'll miss collecting medals for a reward, it'll probably speed up our huttball games now.

If you're on the bad side of a 0-5 game in huttball, the enemy team will probably just go ahead and get the 6th point for the win instead of collecting medals for the next 5+ minutes.
You won't be missing out on anything either since you'll probably have gotten your 4 medals by then.

As expected. Pushing all PvP toward WZs. Pretty much ditching all incentive to do OPvP altogether. Personally, I'm disappointed. If we were getting another 3 WZs with 1.2, I wouldn't mind so much. But we are only getting one. Huttball and Voidstar are so played out for me it's not even funny. I just can't stand them anymore. So not too thrilled.

I know Ilum is garbage, but at least there are a variety of different fights there and some unpredictability, 30v30, 4v6, 1v1s. Oh well...will just have to vote with my wallet when the time comes if I don't enjoy it.

Since u can only get 40 Warzone COmmendations a match now and roughly 2 matches an hour. That means 80 wz commendations in a full hour of play. 80wz = about 26merc merc......Do people realise that this change is just going to take them longer to get gear. Kindof funny ppl acting excited not realizing its gonna make it longer. 1k merk and 1k warzone for 1 bm token 25 matches just to get 1k warzone commendations and your not even close then.

only for bonus comms from medals. It used to be 5 per so you needed 8 medals to get 40 bonus. Everyone will still get extra comms based on the time spent in wz and whether you win or not.

RIP Ilum... Que WZ please. Good thing is they are focusing everyone back into warzones. But a DOT does not affect you from interacting with and objective??? It's going to be interesting to see how that works out. Really like the 4 medals = 2000 valor. Healers are also going to jump to the top of the kill list. Not DPS wise but if they aoe heal they get credit for teamates kill...

40 commendations per medal, up to 4 medals. So unless the warzone ends early most people should be getting 160 commendations per match minimum regardless of a win or loss.

I've been saying this for a while as well. Bring back the Beta surveys, only make them optionally accessible from the help menus.

Before or after a major update, make them pop for everyone on logoff, something like that.

Surveying the population that way is a much better metric than what you read on forums.
