[Forum Changes Coming!]

For people worried that this whole grouped servers with [server Name] threads thing won't work:

 

[Most Valuable Player]

A lot of people people actually think the person who gets most votes get's all the rewards, therefore they actually think they benefit by not voting (as they'd be reducing their own chances of getting the most votes)

 

A lot of people also think "well the whole team sucks so nobody is MVP!". Which is sort of a misunderstanding of the concept of "most" but whatever.

 

Mostly though, people just can't be assed. No virtual points for their virtual character so why bother.

[Non PvP in Warzones!]

They get exactly the same rewards as you at the end of each BG - that's how they're "benefiting".

[Who won? Why?]

The team that gets to the end first wins - if no team gets to the end, the team that got furthest wins.

 

If one team extended the bridges in the second room and the other didn't, the team that lowered them would win. Ditto for the forcefields in the third room.

All classes take too long to get out of combat.

[Advice for the MVP Vote]

if someone has top dmg most kills chances are they arent focused on objective aka they should be the last ppl you mvp

Same, I always vote on the person who has done the least damage, because that a sure fire way to know they're really contributing. Of course, sometimes it means I'm voting for people who are afk, disconnected, joined the game half way through, simply don't know how to play, or a combination of all 4, but it's worth it to know that sometimes I'll be hitting someone who is doing no damage because they're really, really dedicated to objectives.

 

Except objectives like killing the person carrying the huttball, killing the people attacking your own carrier, killing people trying to capture or defend a turret and killing people trying to plant or defuse a bomb. But all other objectives than that, they're all over it.

[Advice for the MVP Vote]

Really?

 

I usually do top damage, most kills, most guard, etc I get maybe 1 or 2 votes...

 

Same - even having done 200k and 40k healing, I'd still get fewer MVP votes than a healer who has done 50k healing.

 

Of course, a bigger problem is that usually only 4-5 players even bother to click an MVP button at all (maybe give some tiny incentive to actually vote, like a single commendation?), and what calculates "Objective Score" seems completely arbitrary. I've had 1-0 wins in Huttball where I carried the ball 90% of the way before a teammate finally decided to run in front of me to receive, and yet somehow my objective score was 0.
