I think that in wz (War Zones) all teams should be pugs. Friends could still get together to do flashpoints, and missions, using TS, or Vent, or whatever to your hearts content. But this should not be allowed in WZ because it gives an unfair advantage to the opposite team. (mostly imps)

Doing this will bring somewhat of a balance to the game. Making WZ completely pug and no premades allowed.

Pug only warzones, good one. Ok so Bioware will never...NEVER remove the option to queue with friends/guildies in this game. That would be the final nail in the coffin. With the upcoming 4v4 grouped ranked and solo ranked premades will become less of a problem. Most of these 'pro' premades will be doing grouped ranked and if a solo player does not wish to do solo ranked (I don't know why they have been asking for such a queue for what seems like an eternity) then that is there own issue can still queue for regs and probably deal with less premades since they will most likely be doing ranked.

Running WZ with my friends is actually one of the few things that keeps the game fun. I guess I am not alone in that.

Since I PuG a lot as well i know the pain of playing against a well organized premade. Yet in my mind this is no reason to ban friends from queuing as a group. Premades are not ruining normal WZs it is rather the fact that as PuG you can't communicate as efficiently. So why for that matter does this game not have some way of in game voip?

It was dead for about 10 days, and then some fool brought it back to life

Would somebody PLEASE tell that fool that Premades vs. Pugs is irrelevant? Tell him/her that class balance is a far more important and pressing matter.. and that resolving class balance would fix much of this?
It's like this:

Regardless of what side of the fence you stand on...

Bioware doesn't care.






When all the major combatants in this debate abandoned the thread, it should have died.

We have far more important matters to argue about.. This is a waste of time.

You just insulted someone for using an existing thread instead of making a new one. Two birds, one stone. Congrats
