ehtom Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 So I play republic side on Tomb of Freedon Nadd. Before the daily change the matches were roughly 50-50 (though slightly in imperial favour, due to the fact that they seem to have at least one premade every single wz). However, since the daily change, I am forced to play with people who seem incapable of doing even the simplest things. I win about 10% of warzones now. I see sub 100k dps all the time. I see sub 100k healers that only heal themselves all the time, that is assuming we even have a healer at all. Because of this I can't really do much - I just get nerdfocused by at least 3 people every time I try to do anything, usually resulting in me having the highest deaths by far - but also paradoxically the highest damage (250k-ish). Why did bioware feel the need to give a cookie to people who are so terrible they couldn't even win 3 warzones a day? It makes literally no sense. If you want to give terrible players free pvp gear, let them get 100 wz comms from some weekly quest or something instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So... you are complaining that you can't kill terrible players or that the number of terrible players on your team is the same as the number of terrible players on the other team? Also, anecdotes are pretty useless. You've only had a very small sample size for comparisons and therefore your conclusions are premature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Semitote Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 It's one of those things where something benefits the majority, but royally screws over a small minority. It had to be done, and they were willing to deal with collateral damage like what you have mentioned in your post. While I would probably be upset in your situation, my situation (on a dying server) it seems like it will bring more people (especially on the Republic side) back into Warzones and make queues pop faster. Yes, winning is less important now, but still has some benefit (you get your daily done faster and get more valor/commendations/credits). I don't like it, but it was a necessary band-aid to carry the community as a whole until cross-realm queues / rated warzones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VegaPhone Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 (edited) Just pay the devs some extra money to have a secret insta kill button. It will make them nerd rage and you always win. I hope you enjoy lying and torturing people to use this 'skill' that devs can give you. Just say you are good at the game, and keep on causing them nerd rage until they kill themselves in real life. Who needs class balance when you can suck the metaphorical dev **** for a hack to win. Edited May 9, 2012 by VegaPhone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After change, instead of leaving a losing wz, they stay afk instead....big deal.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Republic has alot more noobs than imperial, I thought this was common knowledge. Now, these noobs are queueing all the time as opposed to not queuing at all...

criminalheretic Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 I am continually amazed by all these posts, as though changing the daily all of a sudden made everyone go AFK in WZs... It didn't. I literally think you are imagining things. They changed the daily so that the vast majority of players who are pugging it, can still get some comms when losing 10-15 matches in a row to the same premade. The change is a good thing for the larger portion of people. Accept it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolverstreets Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Dude. Boo hoo. The problem before was less people queing for warzones. This helped alleviate that. Those crappy newbies will get better. And your side has them too so it's even. This is certainly better than less people playing. Wake up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Help them improve if they truly are as bad as you say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Assassin Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 the problem is the negative knee jerk reaction of the negative SWTOR members. those who are not performing, are just acting out. hopefully, BW will understand this fix is a band-aid and actually provide more incentive to perform and PvP.
