Will it kill the servers faster than people unsubscribing because they can't find enough players to play with in an MMO?

No..I did'nt. I was trying to be kind and not mention why should one .....nvm. Besides...Bioware has allready said they are going to improve Open World PVP, so the options will still be there for you to be remembered by some on your server. Even today in WoW..if you want to go to Crossroads for example and battle the other PVP players...you still can.

Well that's an interesting strategy. I was hoping you weren't running in saying "LEEEEEEEEEEROY JEEENNNNNNNNNKINS!" *Pyroblast*.
I shot first!

If the LFG tool is such a standard for today's MMO's I challenge any of you to show me an MMO that has ever launched with it?


(I'm not against the tool, but I honestly cannot think of one single game that launched with it.)

I left out that I was invisible while I got in the center. It was a planned strategy so that we could just kill all middle trash on one pull. Otherwise you had to pull two groups and then the two side mobs separately.

It was exciting for a lil mage. Although, I should have added "LEEEEEEEEEROY JEEENNNNNNNKINS" as well!

SW could have been the first... what a blown opportunity!

So no game has EVER launched with a LFG and the MMOs coming out this year will not have them at launch either.

Rift put it in fairly quickly after launch.

SWTOR is putting it in fairly quickly after launch for single server and as soon as the devs figure out it did nothing to help anyone not on a heavy pop realm, they'll make it cross-server.

What does launching with a tool have to do with anything?

I love the smell of Biodrones in the morning ...

This is Tera Btw ...

"Improved Grouping: En Masse has gone ahead and bumped up experience bonuses for grouping to encourage players to get together and adventure. Additionally, the developer has also added an instance finder functionality to allow players to queue up and get right into instanced PvE content where they will also find new bind-on-pickup gear. En Masse explained that the bind-on-pickup aspect was important as they wanted to be able to reward players with powerful items without breaking the in-game economy."

Bioware really messed up with not putting in a better LFD tool and thought they could get away with it. I promise you that this game would be over the cusp of 2million subs back in February if they had better group management. HOWEVER they can redeem themselves with 1.3 if it doesn't take forever and it works.
Our lack of a proper LFD tool will black out the sun!
Then we shall cancel our subs in the shade!
