I'm going to have to abandon a few 20 somethings because of this as well, I'm definitely less than thrilled about it. How some of these morons on the forums don't get how people can be pissed that their time was wasted based on a pretty basic oversight is astounding.

Totally agree, at this stage of things you shouldn't need an incoming call. If you take note of who is guarding the weak side node/door, you can also tell when they are engaged if you pay attention. In addition to that if you are solo guarding a door on a class that doesn't have an elite turn the damage off ability, it can be pretty hard to type if you get jumped by two stealthers

I don't think I've ever been guarded by a sweep guardian. They definitely need to change shield so it can proc against any damage type though, as well as have armor effect all attack types

When it was the only same faction warzone I hated it, now I'm fine with it being in the general rotation.

Most players have limited situational awareness or as someone else said they vote for their friends. The healers you stick with should definitely be voting for you though.

More options strikes me as a no brainer as well.

If you are telling other people to guard a turret, why aren't you doing it? I'm not a huge fan of people fighting off the turrets either, but you guys that volunteer others to not pvp so that you can are hilarious.

The game isn't dead, there are quite a few bad signs though, a large one being how few adequately populated servers remain and how big of a drop off there was after that free month ran out. I would guess the game is right at or now under a million subs. As one poster said the initial leveling experience is a very good one, but the game is pretty bad at lvl 50 and many things feel very rushed for a game that was so hyped. The original handling of pvp gear in this game is literally the worst thing I"ve ever seen in an mmo, the concept was so bad I'd actually call it a disgrace. By christmas this game might be ready for launch, but it will quite possibly be staring a turn to free to play in the face by then.

Everyone was new at some point, so I don't mind that so much. More competitive matches would definitely be a bonus though.

I've topped dps many times while being under lvl 20 as well, on a gunslinger or sniper I've actually doubled the next nearest guy on my team damage wise a few times. If you are a solid player you don't need big time advantages to contribute. In addition to that it's the leveling bracket, if you are taking it overly serious I'd make an appointment with your primary doctor, because you may be a high strung moron.

I agree completely

If you need someone to tell you which node needs help you have very little situational awareness. A lot of the players that run in premades are pretty bad when they are on their own. Premades can definitely be fun and they can make many things easier, but if you need a full group to pvp, chances are you aren't as good as you think you are.

I'm all for them giving full 8 man groups their own que and own ranking when cross server is implemented. I'll enjoy doing them myself when the stars align once or twice a week where enough guild members can be on to do them. But for the rest of the time I like to solo que or only que with a buddy, and I'd actually be more curious about my solo rating than a focus firing/ profession stacking rating.

Make them require ammo outside of tank stance
