Kryptorchid Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 1. Roll back all Valor. 2. Give underpopulated side a +1% bonus to ALL Valor (Ilum, WZs, etc.) for every 10 players the overpopulated faction has more. (If other faction has 2,000 more players, the underpopulated faction would get 200% more Valor). 3. Reduce the overpopulated faction's Valor gain by -1% per every 10 players they have over the underpopulated faction. Cap at 100% penalty. (If that faction has 2,000 more players, the over populated faction would get a 200% Valor penalty, so they would get 0 Valor). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killadrix Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I cant belive Ive defended you guys in game for weeks telling ppl that it will get better and the buggs will gradually get polished away. I guess the jokes on me. How you could let this slip baffles me. as for the "potential" issues, Im sure atleast one of you have your own character... log in, fly to Ilum and see for your self. If you cant find the problem go look for a new line of work. This shouldnt be a hard fix for you guys. Roll back the valor gained since the patch, resett the game back to the way it was before the patch and start working on fixing the issues you allready have before you add new ones. Pretty much this. I have defended Expertise, defended premades vs pugs, defended the one PVP bracket on these forums for the last month. I'm an idiot for defending any decisions these guys make.

Arellea Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 ***MESSAGE TO ALL REPUBLIC PLAYERS: BOYCOTT ILUM!!!*** The subject line says all you need to know. (The Links are from other Posters.) Some Proof: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/32387872/herpderp.jpg Not good enough?: Bioware: Well Ilum is not functioning the way we intended, so we are going to make people fight when they arrive onto the planet to do their daily. Me: 40+ vs 10? Thanks but one question, does anyone at Bioware actually use the thing that is located between their ears? ----------------- Until valor is rolled back just boycott PvP altogether. If BW doesn't want to fix their mess than let all those battlemaster imps have fun fighting all the other battlemaster imps in huttball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthOvertone Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I've been supporting you guys and your PvP gaffs since launch as much as I can, but what you did to Ilum in 1.1 takes the cake. It's an utter disaster. Seriously, you guys are just clueless. There is just no excuse. Actually had a lot of respect for Mythic. Played WH and really liked the combat in that game, but they have to be the biggest bunch of morons ever to allow stuff like the Ilum fail to get through. Honestly, what a bunch of buffoons. Fire them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sznur Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Guys calm down. Bioware is allowing all that inquisitors to gain POWAH, UNLIMITED BATTLEMASTER POWAAAAH, its a part of their story line and SW:TOR is a story driven MMORPG. Working as intended.

XodoK Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I heard turrets actually do not give ANY valor. Is that true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barbacharles Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 You guys jumped the gun on World PvP too fast. I understand being your first ever MMO game that there will be mistakes, let alone your first ever game that has multi-player in it. Remember that it took time for WoW to get to where it is now, no one is balanced yet and it's only been out for a month. Roll back any VP earned from Ilum, as soon as possible. You're breaking the game in the worst possible time to do so, the growth stage is the most important stage of this game and you've butchered it in the first major patch update. You shouldn't of even added any content yet and just fixed bug's and balances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoupyNuggs Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Agreed. Bioware prefers the Empire and Ilum going live just proves that they don't give a rats behind what the Republic experience is like in any freaking way, shape, or form. I disagree, makes no sense for Bioware to "prefer" one faction over another. They're just incompetent and let a broken open world pvp system go live.

Werdan Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Quick fix-Remove valor from turrets ASAP. Short fix-Greatly increase XP for underdog faction in PvE/warzones (at least 50%). Slightly increase valor for underdog faction in PvP (10-15%). Medium fix-Remove turrets altogether and put a shielded door for players to enter/exit their bases. Long fix-Server transfers. Almost improbable fix-Make it easier/faster for players to switch factions. If I could go from Merc to Commando and have the same items xfer over (even if I had to pay for it), I'd switch factions if the rest of my guild wanted to as well. Other Ilum issues: -insane lag -even worse FPS then before -not enough lootable containers Kudos: -Respawn at nearest speeder point is nice -valor increases per kill -less likely chance of farming kills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darthneubauer Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 The same reason no one wants to get auto-balanced to the losing team in a shooter. there are people, Like me . that enjoy that type of gameplay it offers at least some sort of challange Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shendaar Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 (edited) Everybody saw this coming from a mile away. I am sorry Bioware, but you need to have a good hard look at your design team. Clearly some of your designers have no idea what they are doing. This is really just incompetence. Edited January 18, 2012 by Shendaar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tetrie Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Can we please get an immediate fix on this issue? Revert the changes, close off Ilum... do something at least. As Ilum stands right now, it's completely dysfunctional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexcinq Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Just cancelled my 6 month plan. I'm guessing you're going to feel this one, BioWare. Roll back before tonight, and I'll go month-to-month. Otherwise, forget it. They will prob send this text to the higher ups, if this multi million dollor co dosnt get your $60 they might go under, but i am shore they will consider your offer and roll it back so they can get your $14:95. I know your mad and so am i but saying things like this are just a plan waste of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saviorofcamelot Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 May have been hotfixed in the last hour ? Don't you still download the hotfix when you open the game again? I don't know how that works but I have exited/entered the game 3 times since servers went online and no new downloads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinfulangel Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Hey Bioware, read this http://www.guildwars2.com/en/the-game/pvp/pvp-overview/ I should at least say thanks for putting out 1.1 before my free sub was up, thanks for saving me money.
