This post serves as an informative post on those who are unaware as to why queue times are so high. Here is the #1 reason: THERE ARE NO TANKS Because SWTOR is a straight up copy of World of Warcraft in terms of mechanics, which pretty much started the entire automated grouping thing, it's plagued with the exact same problem World of Warcraft, and RIFT (also, surprise surprise, a clone of World of Warcraft), exhibits. Tanks get "instant-queue" (that is, they do not have to wait at all for a group) and everybody else needs to wait. Healers generally wait much less than DPS. DPS, on the other hand, will wait forever because everyone and their mother plays DPS. So, the solution for you? ROLL A TANK. The solution for BIoWare? Stop copying World of Warcraft's mechanics, or more specifically, the "Holy Trinity" and make your own stuff up.

Been unsubbed since I got the game 2 weeks in. So did 5 other friends that I bought the game for. I feel like an idiot for buying them a piece of **** for Christmas.

Whiny nerds whining? The quote that is.

Funny, we can actually blame World of Warcraft for this. WoW implemented, finally, after years and years (even prior to WoW) of ninja looting *******, a system that only allowed classes in respective specs to roll on items associated with said specs/classes. Now SWTOR comes out using the old system and gets screwed.

Final Fantasy XI was the same way as well. This is why I never understood why people called World of Warcraft a "clone" of Everquest. Prior to the era of WoW, leveling was done by camps. Quests were...well, you had to do a lot of google, get lost, and probably die 6 million times.

Do I seriously need to rip the OP a new one again?

Don't associate skill with turnbased MMO combat ever again: GCD and swingtimers effectively make the game turnbased Final Fantasy style using an "Active" battle mode.

MMORPG players, generally, are too *********** stupid to realize this.

Actually no, you're incredibly stupid. CBR600RR GSXR600 YZF-R6 ZX-6R All of these are 600 CC sport bikes, they're all nearly identical. They also all came out at different time intervals. Triumph came out with their Daytona 675R some time a few years ago and managed to match all 4 of the Japanese superbikes. You think anyone's gonna buy a new 600cc sports if it comes out lacking "standard" features? **** no. You think MMOs are any different? People aren't stupid, YOU'RE STUPID.

Why is WoW beating the **** out of every other MMORPG right now?

Round 1 FIGHT Why have I not seen many "yellow" posts besides ones where someone gets their thread locked? Why does Blizzard forums have many more blue posts? We we no has free day for this retarded maintenance time? Why is it snowing in Ontario? I would like to ride my motorcycle.

ATI or nVidia? Swear to God this is happening with mostly ATI users?

Depends how the game implements them but you are correct for almost all games. Macros are like...a really really easy scripting language, and seeing as how people trouble with differentiating between CSS and HTML (and why use both), I'm not surprised ppl don't understand what macros are.

After playing SWTOR, went back to WoW. Same thing happened when I played RIFT, why play a clone when you can play the real thing. Will likely cancel WoW next month though, lots of good games coming out from Japan =D

What do you know about GPU hardware implementation, drivers, and interfaces/interfacing between computers? Sounds like you just read something off the internet and think you know something. You don't know ****, don't post garbage like this. And @ whoever said the eye sees 24 FPS, same to you. No wonder I make so much money off people when some of you actually believe in the false crap floating around the net + word of mouth.
