Cause the peeps saying there are no server population issuse are the same ones that will tell you they get a 100fps everywhere in the game. The servers that are full are few and far between. The ones that aren't are told to reroll or quit. I have seen this pattern time and time again. The only recent game that hasnt made this mistake is...... wow.
So does April really mean April or around april? and if its pushed back to May then what is the excuse then? ohh thats right extensive testing just like the beta.
Yep your right all servers are full. How silly of me to think that to many servers were opened upon release thus splitting the population aka:Warhammer. I apologize for my complete and utter noobness on this subject. /sarcasm off
On 50% of the servers yes its a real problem. Most of the questions asked were whats called softball questions. I thought I was watching msnbc there for awhile.
Until server population is addressed 1.2 is not gonna change a thing.People will put up with all the bugs in the world and fps issues but they will not put up with empty servers.
In 2004 the basic fetaures were not the norm yet. In 2012 swtor is missing alot of basic features. Comparing swtor 2012 to a 2004 game is fine if this was 2004!
Cause they rather make millions instead of billions like WoW. This is what happens when you take failed deveolpers from other games combined with interns and a 300 million dollar budget!
With half the servers dead and no server transfers or cross server ques, 1.2 will, as it did in Warhammer,there mythical patch was called 1.2 also, be the nail in the coffin of this game to be f2p by December!
Without server mergers/transfers 1.2 is doomed to fail. Rated warzones are only gonna exacerbate this problem. Heck cross server would help but there not even doing that.
By the time they adress this glaring issue it will be to late just like warhammer.
Maybe a little less softball questions a little more meat next time. Also did I just see a dev on the guild summit call a person ,that asked a question, Stupid?
I love how peeps on this forum throw the word premade around. Heck on most servers you cant even get a group together to do a flashpoint and we are talking wz premades,Really? Ranked WZ's with the state of pvp in this game, will as the OP stated, ruin pvp in this game. You need a very active pvp community which swtor does not have atm due to severe performance issuses since launch.
The OP is 100% correct. This will widen the already wide gear gap and make the regular person just stop queing for wz's. Rated Bgs will only work if cross-server and transfer are implemented 1st! Nothing wrong with premades but this is essentially a single player game wraped up in a mmo theme. Rated wz's are not needed until we have some meaningful pvp.
Well since this is server based your answers will vary. The best streamer I have seen in any game including this one would be Taugrim. Good at pvp and knowledge of the games mechanics 2nd to none!
