No Cross Realm LFG tool please!

I've said this exact same thing. Be it PvE or PvP when it's the same server players get a reputation. When it's a known skilled player there's a moral and confidence boost to the team. That person generally takes the reigns and lead the team to success. No one can deny this.

There are various forms of policing and believe it or not BioWare is also cracking down. I've experienced it with AFKers in warzones and 2hrs after I submitted my ticket and e-mail with screenshots a GM was confirming with me the character and I never saw that player in a warzone again and haven't been seeing afkers either. This is but one example.

The sad thing is I believe players like some of those in the forums will deliberately not use any LFG that is not cross server in an attempt to validate that it doesn't work.

I will use it..but I am not optimistic it will work well on my server. If I am wrong and it does..then cool. Time proves all things. I am not going to unsub just because we donot have one now. But when my sub runs out this July and I am still having major issues finding grps for Flashpoints and with no light at the end of the tunnel for doing Operations, then I will reconsider serously not resubbing.

We're being spoon fed to the point where we expect Blizzard to fix problems, not work it out with players.

- Heroics are too hard?! Time to make them easier in LK (I still want to know how hard they were in BC)
- Stats on gears are too complicated to understand?! Lets axe half of them...
- Tanking is too hard to pickup for the average player? Lets increase the TPS and make bear swipe all around him/her!
- It takes too much time to get a group together to run a dungeon? Incoming cross-server LFG
- It takes too long to level an alt character? Incoming heirlooms...
- Looting for LFR makes a lot of people "argst"?! Incoming new loot system
- Not enough tanks/healers in LFG?! Incoming incentives!

We now look at blizzard to fix problems among players, and not fixing problems among players ourselves. But the question probably is, is all those changes for the better?

And you are one of the more open minded people. The sad thing is people are looking for a bandage for a bigger injury. Server mergers don't need to happen, transfers don't need to happen, cross server don't need to happen. What we need to do is have one virtual server where we ALL can interact with each other.

Our characters will share ONE legacy. ONE GTN, ONE Playerbase. The faction imbalance will not be out of wack. Players to play with or hop over to a less populated shard to be alone.

THIS is what needs to be done.

And by implementing a x-server tool which the entire community does not what but only the vocal community who spend more time whining on a forum then playing the game should get their feelings on the game put to use makes for a bad game.

Unless you think a healthy community who gets all they want like free loot from x-server instances and raids etc which is one of the other reasons WoW bled a lot of extra subscriptions from some of their most influential subscribers such as the hard core players because the game started to cave into player requests.

And as great as that idea is, it's not economical. The amount of money involved in working on that, BW would never go for it.

How so? In my estimation there wouldn't be much additional cost.

You'd prob need dedicated servers for chat but the rest of things would operate similar to cross server flashpoints and warzones. Players would temporarily hop over to a server as one would a flashpoint/warzone. Players from various servers would share the general chat with everyone else in that flashpoint/warzone. The biggest hurdle I can see is the GTN and future guild banks.

Note the original characters would still reside on the server it was created on.

"""CROSS""" server LFG... No! Please don't.


Same server LFG, that would be nice. That way you could be on a planet doing dailies rather than sitting on the fleet trying to find a group / build a group.

Bioware, keep these sorts of tools within the servers, please.
