Attention all players and Devs - 4.0 most complained about new feature. LEVEL SYNC

Level Synch is just one of many reasons why I changed my sub to non-renewing. Companion changes, crafting changes which are not streamlined, removal of bonus series quests that I was planning on completing and etc.

I left WoW a year ago because of all the crap they did to the game. After 7 years I had enough; No flying was just a smaill part of that. The day 6.0 dropped, I deposited all of my gold and mats into the guild bank, promoted one of my officers to GM and quit; I haven't been back.

I will give the new changes an honest play but as it stands now I'm looking for another game again.

Artimous

At least for PvE servers

Agreed. Optional. Mandatory for certain areas including free-for-all pvp areas and world boss areas.

I'm just upset that this makes the ability to solo a heroic or flashpoint (haven't tried yet) mission impossible and even small groups, presumably, can no longer run operations that asks for 20 players; it's that players are now being forced to group and so are screwing players that like to play solo.

You really should try it before you complain about it. You really should. If you can't finish an H2 (and they are almost all H2) or a Solo FP (again, almost every FP has a Solo mode now) now, that is not the fault of level sync. Also, operations have oh my god I give up, you're just going to complain no matter what the reality is, aren't you?

I have no problem with level sync. I think it's a cool feature that will benefit the overall game.
I think too many players live in fear of change and have their mind made up before they give things a fair chance.
I hope BIoWare doesn't give in to the vocal minority.

I have tried it, and I have to say it is utterly stupid. There is absolutely no reason to make it mandatory it should be optional so that if a player want to run something solo that is 40 level below them they shouldn't have to queue up for stuff, and when it comes to "solo" FP yu still are limited, there was once the freedom to be maxed and go back and redo all your missed quests and not require a companion, or a group. As far as PVE, RP, and immersion goes this opens the players to live the story as freely as they want, which is rare in today's videos games, along with the amazing story lines and dialog you really felt apart of the universe, now it is all but lost.

And that is just one of many reasons it should at least be optional. There is also ease of access like when a long time player has someone new start they could quickly help them get to their own content instead of just speeding the pace along a bit. Being able to not require groups for low level content so you can quickly complete it and move on to the vast amounts of content this game has.

So from casual to the hardcore, this new feature should have been optional.

Dear BW, plz email me once you've fixed this and I may return.

Cheeribye!

It is just my personal opinion, but I do NOT want level sync to be optional, ever.

I firmly believe syncing should be imposed for all or none, I don't want some to 1-shot every mobs they encounter for the credits/drops while I am level synced (trying to get XP).

With this new level synch, you can still easily solo any H2, clear multiple mobs, with high influence w/ you companion - this is very much face roll content. If synching were optional there would be constant greifing (voluntary or not). On PVE servers.

It is true you can't clear an area by pulling 100 mobs and spamming a few AOEs, but with all due respect, I am hearing the World's smallest violin...

Sorry OP... just IMHO.

I have unsubscribed for many reasons. Level sync is NOT one of them.

There is not ONE good reason to toggle it off. ('So I feel powerful' just doesn't cut it)

Its a NUMBER. A base number. it takes nothing away from your character.
You still have your abilities
You still have your bonuses.
You still greatly over power the mobs (Seriously, has anyone complaining about it actually TRIED their normal activity? I feel like Wonderwoman and Mace Windu's love child)

I am reasonably sure that the level sync rage is coming from a certain level of OCD, and not based on impaired gameplay.

Its a number... nothing more.
So far, I am even more powerful on lower planets than I ever was before.
