Guys thank you for all the replies currently my PC specs are : Intel Core i7 6700k Skylake ( I know is an older gen but its still holds up and the game was always played on this one) Nvidia CTX 1070Ti 16 gb ram and everything else seems fine, have enough disk space and so on. Maybe is a ram thing and I have to check what is running on the background that keeps spiking to 7gb ram even when I am barely doing anything even before playing the game.

Got back into the game after almost a year and a half ( I think) since Ossus came out and this time I had to redownload the game because of a login bug but I did it from the Steam edition for different reasons. Now my problem is I am seeing the game performance being a little clunkier or slower, load screen takes way longer, PVP in warzones is kind slower, even general gameplay overall. I don't know how to describe it exactly other than feeling slower and jumpier which it didn't do before and the only thing that is different is I got a new GPU compared to the last time I played and this one is better than the old one. Is this normal because of the Steam edition, patch, or general updates of the game, or can I try something to make the game run smoother?

Inspect would help new people have some idea where they want to go if they see someone dominating the fight so yes to this too please.

Welcome to what Republic side felt almost every day before this patch and imagine how frustrating it was to grind gear or anything through pvp on this side. What you see as bad now I see as just a little fairer. Some nights it feels like losing streak but mostly now its more fair and close matches much better than before.

Yeah adapt , if you see 6 enemy not letting you get your pylon then go theirs and take it or make them defend it just adapt.

Also the patch notes said the system will do it best to match even players and roles but sometimes it will do the best next thing. I imagine it doesn't count people dropping out of que either and that's the reason why sometimes you still get healers on 1 side and dps on the other because it replaces the spot with whatever it can find instead of losing the que pop so we don't wait longer.

This ^, you explained it a lot better and your post about moody players too. Also unless we have concrete data people saying the system is bad because they have lost what? 10 matches out of what? 40 a week? maybe 1 bad day of losing doesnt mean the system is broken if you won the other 30 that week.

I think most people are just used to the idea of having an easy match or at the very least a team stacked in their favor with really good pvpers vs the enemy team being whatever. Now they get someone who is a bit behind in gear or skill and they start getting mad before the match even starts. Why do I say this? because it happened to me when I started farming gear again the other day after a long break and was in 230 and people just started insulting me BEFORE the match started. So yeah at first I wasn't doing much as a 230 guardian but I need to start the grind somewhere right? and I don't have a lot of time to log in for the once in a full moon operation group in pub side. Eventually, I get to at least 236 and swap to tank ( If I do poor dps at the very least I know I can help with some dmg reduction) and guess what? I started getting top spots in the damn match because of doing objectives and helping with my specc even if my gear sucked and my dmg sucked even more. Still, people complained a lot before matches. I remember this one arena ( ranked this time because I wanted to do the quest and get more uns. parts) and the guy went off on me and said I wanted to throw the match and shouldn't que. Guess what? we won that damn match. So give people a chance and if possible just help a bit, doesn't have to be much maybe just get a strategy going before the match start instead of assuming everyone will fall in place in their own. Also since the patch its been more balance matches than one-sided ones and to be honest I had more fun than before. Again I think most people ( specially Imps) are used to just have this one-sided matches all night and having fun because of the endless wins without much competition. Now they have to work a little more for a win or just don't win constantly and are crying about it.

A smuggler not able to speak to a bounty hunter in Nar Shadda where is the lore in that? it would be like Luke or Vader or Han and Boba not being able to understand one another because one was in the rebellion and the other the empire.

I mean yeah it is , bla bla space wizards what I meant was it is not a medieval fantasy game with races that dont speak the same language , YES we have a lot of races but most speak basic.

Well at least it pops more , imagine getting your wish and only being able to que for 1 match a day because you cant find players to pvp? Is not like this game is super high in pvpers to begin with.Just look at it this way , eventually that person will be a full gear 248 healer that will keep you alive while you ***** in rank.

I don't get where people come saying it is against lore to talk between factions this isnt a fantasy game or some Star Trek one where people don't speak the same language here almost everybody in the lore speaks basic and theres a ton of stories where imps work with pubs so why would it be so lore breaking to speak between factions? at the very least speaking in whispers in pvp should be allowed.

Is poop because you guys cant work the system and dominate every match? Because thats what I keep seeing welcome to the other side pre patch and guess what ? from what I see now it seems more like 50- 50.

Thats the thing you only learn so much from regulars when the other team is just kicking your *** and you dont have a chance of doing anything the way the system is now it helps to balance it a little and bad pvpers learn from good ones from their team. The old system in my opinion was 1 sided most of the time and people just quit all together.

From what I read in the patch the new system does it best to balance teams but if there is little balance it goes to the best possible matchup it can do based on different parameters so we don't get endless que times waiting for equally skill players to que for the same match. Sorry kinda mixed some other thread with this one and my answered wasnt for this one but regardless it kinda of applies too.Can't control quitters unless you give some penalty but I don't know if giving a penalty help que times for the rest of us in the long run.
