I am sick and tired of being told I want things in this game without putting in any effort. My effort should come from the flashpoint not the brain numbingly tedius process of finding groups. Sitting around the fleet isn't effort. Spamming general chat isn't effort. Flagging myself in a useless LFG system isn't effort. Whispering random people does require effort but success isn't defined by my skill but on the whims and interests of those who I am whispering.

The current system is pure tedium for so many of us. It's not effort. It's not challenge, its a waste of time.

I think they do need a dungeon finder because I've looked everywhere and I've yet to find a dungeon in SWTOR.

Wow, amazingly passive aggressive. Sorry you're feeling such nerdrage, guess it would be okay for me to use red coloring if I named my account Darth_Vader.
Just because I do not care, does not mean I do not understand.

I am constantly finding groups for HMs and I'm even PUGing HM Operations now.

Why are you guys having problems? And don't tell me 'lol no one plays republic' because I play republic.

I have 4/5 Rakata pieces from PUGing. The game does not need a dungeon finder, it needs YOU to talk to people.

Congratulations! So when they implement the LFG tool you won't have to even bother using it! But thanks for the useless post!

It's cool dude. If they add a LFG tool its a win win. For those of us having trouble finding groups we will be able to find groups, for those of you who have no trouble can just keep doing what your doing.

Everybody wins.


If finding groups becomes more difficult for you, it just means YOU need to talk to people even more.

Yeah, this is the part that I dont get why there is such hate.

If I am not finding groups, then "YOU" arent playing with me anyway. So what do you care if I press a button to play with 3 other random people WHO ALSO CANT FIND GROUPS?!?!?!?!

Like, in WoW I have two options to form groups

1) the old fashioned way spamming trade/general/friends lists/guild
2) press a button

Guess what. I do both. Sometimes I do a mix of the two (awesome, we have a heal and a dps, lets queue for a tank and 2 more dps!), sometimes I do exclusively one or the other.

But if you hate one of those options so what. If you are finding groups so easy you must...

Play at better times for your server than I do
Picked a more in demand class than I did (for the record, I am a heal specced Sage who can and will respec dps as needed)
Have more friends who want to do things besides leveling alts

Good for you!

i'd like to press a button and do a dungeon. I'd like to be sick of the content, not sick of trying to get to the content.

In wow I am tired of doing the dungeons cause I have done them so much.

In tor I have completely given up after weeks of spamming only to have done less than 10 HM FPs (and even then its like taral V, koan, and esseles cause after 3 hours of putting a group together everyone wants to do the "easy" ones).

Do you not understand the difference?

Our lack of a proper LFD tool will black out the sun!

Pros:

1. Can continue questing while waiting for group to form.
2. Prevents trolls from sitting there ruining General Chat while they are bored trying to fill a group.
3. Proves that BioWare can do something like this. Buys street creds.

Cons:

1. Some people think it ruins the community...but I think they are wrong. They obviously have not sat for an hour trying to fill a Flashpoint group.
2. People who think like that are probably in a huge guild and have no trouble filling groups. We're usually filling 2-3 of 4 and just need that last role.
Good Idea I think. This would help on lag on the fleets as well. /signed
