Dungeon Finder Needed Badly

this.

since there currently is no way to LFD except sit on the fleet and do nothing else, besides maybe a little crafting - which can't really be called an "activity" mind you, people who want flashpoints hang out in the fleet. Or usually, don't bother with them in the first place, since no one is around.

Tbh, as long as you have an active guild, you shouldnt have to waste time on searching for members to do stuff. It may not be for everyone but thats actually one of the best ways to solve the problem in the meantime, guildruns.

This game has tons of content that has to be coordinated (hardmodes etc) so without teamspeak or whatever, well i can say i would never pug some of the hardmodes/ops.

Its just a guild focused game at the moment, and for me coming from games like wow its kind of nice to do content that at the same time requires you to be a bit social once in a while instead of just going into an instance with a pug barely speaking to eachother just to farm loot.

MMOs are supposed to be a social experience as well, there are plenty of good single player games out there for ppl who do not want the social bit.
Having said that, they are working on a lfg tool for heroic missions and FPs so give em time and suggestions to develop it first and take if from there. Since they have their mind set on serverwide only, is there a point at the moment to argue around crosserver queues?

I for one agree... but be careful with the "instant" gratifying customers. Soon, there will be nothing more to gratify. Concider wow.....

Wow is currently done by sitting at SW all day, and it has a LFG As you see your argument is not valid. To run 1 dungeon after the other is what many people do there, most of them dont even know where the dungeon entrance is - if its at eastern kingdom or kalimdor.

And I am unsure how often I wrote this here, nobody has to sit at the fleet. You can use the LFG tool from every spot and also the global LFG channel.

Xserver dungeon finder please, waiting is bad so I want the most minimum wait time possible, I've also barely ever friended anyone from a dungeon run so I couldn't care less about so called "community" and single server won't help people levelling up much to find dungeons.

You have yet to provide an actual argument.

Also this global LFG channel you speak of, is user created and must be joined everytime and everyone has to know the name of it, which requires spamming General every day about it. Plus the current LFG tool is flawed and quite frankly rubbish.

Fact of the matter is, Bioware is putting in a Group Finder. You can either use it, whilst out in the universe, or sit in the fleet spamming general chat. Your choice.

Yes they are. But for now, it will be single server. I am HOPING that this sheds light on the fact that some of the servers need to be merged should the low pop servers still have an inability to get into a dungeon. I hope they look to that first rather than ASSUME the single server system fails when it's really the low pop server.

One of the options from the poll they had was Heroic quests. I believe this was second only to flashpoints(overwhelming majority). Cross server will do NOTHING for this. But HOPEFULLY, they realize merging a few low pop servers together will be healthy for the overall game. This enables not only more folks for the flashpoint runners, but helps heroic quests as well.

I am on the Begeren Colony server, which I have never seen at higher than Standard in the last month or two, but we have enough of a pop to enable dungeon runs on both sides should we get a LFD utility. It's not THAT tough right now.

The LFD tool is mainly wanted by those who play console games. All they know how is to log in and click a button. Those are also the same players who will be crying for nerfs because of all the crap groups they will get and the real population will suffer by getting nerfed FP's.

Actually, the LFG tool seems to be wanted by people who think it's more fun to actually play the game than it is to do laps in fleet station hoping to get a group together.

As for "crap groups", I have the same opinion as I did/do for WoW: I'd rather have the ability to get quickly get a group, which may turn out to be crap, than to have to spend 45 minutes hoping to get a group, which may also turn out to be crap.

Kind of defeats the purpose of playing a true RPG game.. Think about it.. You're on Tatoonine and in 2 seconds you're in some strange new world doing a flashpoint, then instant teleport back to where you used to be after you're done.. I really fail to see the RPG immersion factor in that set up.. Sorry.. As I said, this is like a FPS lobby game you play on Xbox.. Next thing players will demand is instant travel to ANY location.. Players can't be bothered to rpg or travel anymore.. We need instant gratification nowadays.. lol
