premades should be barred from regular wz then reg wz will be more consistently organic. the best reg wz are pug vs pug that would ensure that your ranked would be popping if that was the only place allowing premades so allow 4 mans to Que for ranked alas EA has dropped the ball on this.

the experience is bad for the most part basically having to pay your dues and have your hat handed to you for many matches. its the worst when 2x premade is the opponent recruits are but appetizers to the main course any team with more than one recruit tier player in the wz is 99% going to lose unless the other team is simarly gimped. it is uncanny how many times a gimped team is matched up against 1x or 2x premades or vs a team that hasn't even one recruit tier player matchmaking in swtor is non existent. one would have thought that because EA runs call of duty or some game like it that they would in fact have had matchmaking in swtor. now it's been over a year since the game released and EA has dropped the ball, at this point I dont believe they care about matchmaking or parity or leveling their playing fields. multple threads with over 1000 posts have all but been ignored without as much as a dev response. if ganking under tiers with overwhelming forces is your bag the PvP in swtor is your game.

could be a photoshop

Oh my stars! There is matchmaking in the game already. Basically, Premades are matched to pugs as priority #1. Catering is full buffet for elite groups, they carry the weight in swtor. The standard mmo business model of tuning for casuals is not in force here. No sir. Enjoy the surge in population of undergeared pugs that FTP brings, ensuring that any hope of pugs finally being geared up is but a pipe dream. It is a fantasy dreamland of icecream unicons and naked ladies for premades facerolling come true. A pig in a poke, shooting fish in a barrel. wooo haaa get some!

Kashykk emphasis Shadowlands hehehe

StoneAge!

veractyl please?

your expertise level is extremely low to weigh how effective a pure tank spec in pvp is. also to dps you will need to have dps gear, switching to dps tree wil not be effective in tanking gears. I see a lot of tanks top the charts frequently in pvp and in dps as well, they are wearing dps gear. Pure tanks have a purpose in pVp that is to taunt, slow but they cannot ever be allowed to be unkillable demigods.

To the OP may your dreams be realized and fortune bless your heart, you seem nice. Thank you for sharing your data and experience. Good that you will set yourself a limit and a boundry Qyzen Fess would argue the scorekeeper keeps score. Apostle Paul said he counted everything but the loss. many wise and moderate posters have said RNG is RNG. I thought some of the trolls responding were excessively ugly.

grind out your comms > wait till 1.6 > WH will then cost regular comms not ranked> trade in the shells + rwz comms for elite set. Get your gear then weigh the class. I have that class, and the gear fully augmented and min maxxed. I'm only as good as the team I'm on, commando gunnery is being revamped as we speak by Bioware because of it's lack of escape. Tangent: On a lighter note and somewhat peevish note LOS? line of sight? lol are we fighting? or dancing with the stars? LOS is a wimpy, wimpish, wimpout, chicken, cowardly, contemptable way of fighting, that has no business in sport pVp (to the extent that it is abused in swtor's paltry 4 pVp maps). Bear in mind this comes from a Commando that has no speeed, vanish, cloak, bubble, invurnability, grapple, pull, leap, or charge heheheheh LOS usually get killed anyway and their dps sux cause all they do is hide. The 4 maps we have with the exception of Coast are all LOS'ers paradise.

every planet that looks like a giant landfill / garbage can trash garbage debris Only oscar the grouch would appreciate I like shiny translucent marble halls, palaces, Tython or any planet showcasing nature, flora, fauna are my favorites because they dont look like garbage cans. Well you know within the last 10 years game designers moved to show casing destruction visually but... to have to look at burned out buildings and garbage... Day after day, week after week, it gets OLD real fast. So every planet that is a showcase of the "hey lets showcase garbage" game design mentality" which sadly is by far way too many planets in the swtor. Coruscant comes to mind as my most hated planet. it is butt ugly drab brown everywhere, trash, debris burning rubbish and rubble... Bioware expansion: either shroud the whole thing in a dense foggy blanket of smoke, give me the option as player to wipe the planet from the face of the galaxy, or reconstruction. The only thing I would save or only reason to save this planet would be the the ROCKET TRAMS. They would make for some nice speedy swoop tracks.

GM posted they are continuing to develope optimization for swtor personally I have not experienced any game crashes or machine crashes since 1.4 not sure I've ever had any game crashes or machine crashes and I've played for 11 months. I do look forward to continued better optimizations from the gm's though.

for this

Halo bungie.net keeps meticulous PvP stats, record and post ingame matches online. something similar would be a welcome addition to swtor

Because Bioware decided to please the wow crowd instead of the kotor base. thus this game was cursed with the disease that is trinity gameplay. Don't worry the elderscrolls online will let us choose with freedom

bioware should add a tell to who is spacebarring and who is not you see i only run hardmode flashpoints for the bh comms at this point 99% of the time 3/4 players ask for spacebar with a tell of who won't honor the request, my ignore list can actually get some names on it. If I want to see the story I'll ask to do so, or solo the damn storymode. ....................................... After reading this thread Im actually going to initiate the "kick member" function when 3/4 players have asked for spacebar and 1/4 player decides they are somehow more important than the majority.

there is often one person who watches the 9001 scenes and choices in the esseles while three people ask for spacebar. Usually the one person who isn't spacebarring needs gear and is being carried through the hardmode by others. Now I don't mind watching the final scene of a hardmode but watching every scene in esseles should be done on your own time.

bah forget that go do kotor/swtor CGI heheheheh

not getting any client crashes in fact I could count all the ones I've had since launch on one hand. though this laptop was bought in January with nearly the best cpu and gpu available.

what? hmm takes note* must be gimping myself in wz because I am late to the party it seems.

sorry it is someone elses turn to be fotm for 3-4 months, you had your time in the sun, and what i suspect you have already re-rolled but are just not wanting to do your leveling.

your ops health bars resized are a bit much too big the layout of your quikbars is lack is devoid of any sleekness. Soundtrack, I prefer the real sound effects highlights? this ain't sportcenter lacks cohesion.

Hit the swoop tracks/ circuit and post the fastest times, after that take everyones creds on my server, in a friendly game of pazzaak, then unleash the gizka scourge, first upon the fleet, then the galaxy at large. Then break for lunch.

need barber shop ~ color palette dyes ~ new haircuts. revan gears darth sion broken cracked shirtless torso +1 more animation on Lightsabers (though white lightsaber crystal that cost me 1.5 mil creds NEEDS POLISH) +1 mask of Nihilus +1 invisible torso... though hide torso would have been more appreciated (along with color match to any part.) +1 throne speeder lol though what do repub toons get? +1 flying lizard ( though where is my veractyl mount?) -1 Republic toons still have ZERO masks that hoods slide over that aren't a joke... -1 toggle hood up down -1 need better looking moddable/ or legacy gears very few classes got good looking gears for example (trooper WH / BH/ Campaign gears were almost perfect aesthetically) while some other classes have just been dumbfounded. New armor designs should have to be submitted to player approval imo.

umm yea that cost me 1.5 million credits so it really sux some players will get by luck but most will be dissapointed by the very low RNG
