gbrecht Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Allowing temporary free level 50 empire > republic faction switching. Once the populations balance out a bit, back to normal. Please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MashTactics Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 (edited) I don't think this would fix the problem at all. Nobody is going to join the losing team. Edited January 28, 2012 by MashTactics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuw Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I think this would make the problem worse, actually. Everybody would switch to the winning team. how would you propose with what companions get transformed into what? what about quest decisions? class quest story line? gear? the amount of work that would be needed would have to be incredible. faction transfers aren't the solution i think, or at least now right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunicEvil Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I would join the losing team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtterNation Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Not to talk about the other game, but I know plenty of people on our server who were Horde and went to the underplayed Alliance so they could make a difference, and they actually did.

Some things would get reduced to 0. Companion affection, Gear, most of you bank stuff. But they could cloth you in all T1 PVE gear maybe. It's a lot worse then all my current gear that I have. And I didn't have to do much for it anyways (Little bit of pvp). I think it's possible. People would just have to go into it with an understanding that you're switching teams and you're going to lose some stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flowerslayer Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Nah, no one would want to give up their class story lines just to go to the losing team. People that want to play underdog is "hardcore" enough to just reroll, but frankly it aint a significant number of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kauhu Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 (edited) I don't think this would fix the problem at all. Nobody is going to join the losing team. The idea of faction change is horrible, but you're wrong. Many people would rather play the underdog, and actually have healthy World PvP (if it was meaningful, something BW will look into im sure), and less Hutball and more other WZ's (Huttball is awesome, don't get me wrong there) By many I don't mean majority of population, but more than just few select people. And, tons of Imps-at-release will also roll republic, just to have some fresh change regarding zones, stories and whatnot. I know I will.

jontyld Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 If I didn't want to level republic to begin with, why would i want to convert my imperial guy at level 50 and throw myself into a faction I know nothing about, while missing the story.
