I'd prefer the choice: Arena Objective based PVP Both The exact map I don't care about as long as they fix the distribution of how often each one pops, so we don't get a disproportionate amount of VS/AHG anymore.

Lol, that's an interesting take on things. Implement bugs, by accident maybe get some new features. Sounds about right.

Can confirm; noticed the same thing.

@CommunityTeam: I see you've been recently active in the bug reports forum. Could you at least try to be customer friendly and acknowledge this issue instead of ignoring it? What more do you expect? Proof? Screenshots? Videos? Us begging?

Surprised to see this is still not on their Known Issues list. Also bumping again for visibility.

Feeling triggered. *calms somewhat down again*

I would say that they did?

I'm sharing something I experienced, related to the topic being discussed. That doesn't mean I need to come up with a solution for it. Anyway, I can see why you think I'm being a hypocrit. However: for me there's a difference between leaving before the match even begins - which is what I'm doing - and during the match. That being said, on first thought, personally I would prefer: No lockouts at all, as it was in the past. With losses also counting towards progress (which will be the case with next update if I'm not mistaken), people will be less inclined to leave a losing match. Allow players to opt in/out for objective based pvp or arena. You may disagree, and I'm sure this also would have its downsides, but for me personally at least, this would be less frustrating than what we have currently.

Yesterday, while plenty of PvP was going on: 1st WZ: Arena. I simply refuse to play this game mode. So I leave immediately. 15 min lockout. 2nd WZ: Backfill to an assured loss. 3rd WZ: Backfill to an assured loss. 4th WZ: Arena. Again 15 min lockout. I now wasted a good amount of time without being able to actually play an objective based WZ from start to finish. Infuriating.

Yes, he's talking about the ramps. Or at least: I can confirm I got stuck in one of those once or twice while playing with a sage. Don't ask me how...

After which you can have 15 minutes of fun cleaning your keyboard or something, until you are allowed to queue again

Agreed. If it remains as-is: bye bye Huttball fun.

Trixxie for president.

Exactly. Of course they can and will keep trying to spin this as if it's the greatest thing, taking us for fools. That's what really annoys, or maybe even saddens me, as I've mentioned before.

By this reasoning there should never be any public mass demonstrations either. "Meh, someone already protested about <insert topic>, I'll just keep quiet." Does one person/topic protesting change anything? Unlikely. Does a bunch of people/topics protesting change anything? Still unlikely, but at least there's a better chance compared to when everyone just keeps quiet. The latter at least conveys a bigger outcry IMO, compared to a single topic which gets easily buried. As far as I'm concerned there's a new topic protesting (or supporting) these changes, every day, even if they're repetitive.

For a proper 10th anniversary? 1. Some fireworks in the mail 2. Some exotic color sparkle powder 3. Some pet I don't care about 4. Maybe some ugly mount 5. Maybe even some free CC, why not See how easy it is so far... 6. A decent expansion, story-wise, not the "expansion by FP" crap they started doing. 7. Some new WZs to please pvpers 8. Some new ops, fps, to please pvers 9. No ability pruning 10. Hood toggle. And I think everyone would be happy, mostly.

Indeed. Of course I welcome any new expansions, updates, and so on. But the things they have announced so far, are things I would expect to get anyway, even without a 10 year celebration. I imagine during a BW/EA meeting someone came up with a very bright idea along the lines of "Let's share a very vague roadmap for the coming year with modifications which we were planning on doing anyway, and call this a 'year long celebration'. Our subscribers may just be foolish enough to buy it. Maybe throw in a coupon for a free deco to make it more convincing." End of meeting.

I shouldn't have, but I LOL'ed.

They are doing maintenance. To fix the patch from earlier today.

Excellent idea! During prime time. For a not really game breaking bug.

For a sub? 1 and 2.

Downloading Main Assets 346. 28GB remaining (6 MB/s). Unbelievable. I should simply unsub and be done with it.

All right, thanks for the intel. Started playing again a little while ago after being absent for 6 years or so. Was planning on slapping my old augments in some Mk-10 slots, until I bought new ones. But this means I definitely should not do this .

Interesting. So you're telling me having an empty augmentation slot will provide more mastery than having a <274 mastery augment? Does this only work when an augmentation kit is applied (i.e. empty augment slot), or also without augment kit applied on the equipment? Furthermore, is the Mk- of the slot relevant with regards to how much it will be bolstered? Thanks.
