Ok, its obvious that the hype surrounding 1.3 was mostly due to the hope to see implemented RWZ, 8 man queue and server merges.

 

Well it seems none of these are going to be on 1.3, and I fear that not implementing RWZ or merging servers will be the final blow on this game unfortunately.

 

Am I misinformed or is this true?

Based off what has been said so far you are not miss informed I don't think. They haven't told us "everything" yet though so who knows. As far as RWZ are concerned the only thing I have seen is soon SOON. IMHO mergers need to happen before RWZ. I would prefer server mergers over cross server pvp myself but that's just me.

-augment existing gear

-mauraders getting nerfed

What I don't understand is, with all the stuff that no one really wants or has asked for that they are adding and have added, why can't they at least let us queue 8 man groups? Even making it so we can queue with 4 without having to uncheck the stupid requeue box and auto queue as a group would be a start...I mean that is just broken. To even LAUNCH with such a bug is ridiculous to begin with.

 

Several people in my guild quit because they are tired of us not being able to PvP together. It isn't so much the ranking system they are interested in, THEY JUST WANT US TO BE ABLE TO PvP AS A GUILD!

Just listen to the offical podcast (its not good), they imply that ranked etc will be here b4 1.3 hits.

 

Pretty much this.

 

Ya for the most part the podcast sucked, but if people actually listened to it they state that RWZ are coming before 1.3.

Meh. I am happy to wait for rated WZs, anyhow. It gives me more time to level my merc healer alt. It also makes sense for them to do the server transfers before implementing cross-server WZs (if that is what they are going to do). Frankly, I'd really much rather see them take care of server transfers first.....and then later bring the rated WZs out for us. I don't want to see rated WZs rushed out too early just because a bunch of forum *****s can't stop their inane crying about it. I mean, seriously. It seems to me that the forum community isn't ever happy with anything, so there's no sense in trying to cater to them. They will just ***** about it when it comes out, anyhow. Then they'll all make posts like, "Well, I tryed 2 giv u a chanse, BW lol. But u messd up lol. Now I gonna go play taht oether gaem so I can btitch at tohse devs to lol"

 

Server populations are a much more pressing matter. I'd rather see them being treated as the top priority, anyhow. **** rateds.

I give up, Bioware cannot develop competently.

  1. They put PvP Traffic generation such as Operations and Flash points and put them on the fleet so non opposing factions can interact with it. This is the cause of huge pvp traffic on other MMO's in specific areas.
  2. They keep saying they will be bringing out PvP Ranked warzones on x patch that is around subscription renewal times and then not have it in the patch.
  3. They have totally removed PvP Open world Ilum the planets still there sure but no incentives No quests etc etc its officially dead.
  4. They are listening to the Casual Player base a little to much and is causing problems with how we obtain Gear especially for PvP, Cent/Champ was essentially removed/replaced because of "Recruit gear" Which is obtainable by buying it. Which pissed off alot of people who had to earn that gear.
  5. The list can go on and on

 

I have just unsubed. - they have 99 Days left on my subscription time because i bought 6month at launch to sort their **** out.

Ranked warzones better come out in 1.3 like they said they would.

 

PvE to PvP Content Ratio:

 

90% PvE to 10% PvP - They need a balanced ratio to make this game work. At least a 60/40, They cannot keep ignoring the PvP side of this game.

Ok, so they release RWZ's, then what, you wait in 8hr ques until the one other team arrives??

 

MOST SERVERS ARE NEAR, or ON THERE WAY TO BEING EMPTY, period.

At least you can QUE as a 8man team which 99% of all guilds are hoping to do, So they have a better chance at winning. what your gonna wait till transfers? Im sorry CROSS SERVER IS NOT GONNA HAPPEN. They will barely put server transfers in on time.

Not true.... the same QQers lined up in droves over Rift's alleged short comings ... it is going strong. RWZs will not kill this game ..... those who say its not coming and the death knell would be some QQing over its lameness/bugginess if they did release it as is.

 

I am good to wait until t hey get it right.

A LFG/cross server Qing tool has to come first, then ranked wz will come.

 

Why? you cannot use chat? is it that hard? Cross server **** is not gonna happen, You will not see it for at least 6months to a year.

The problem is this. Right here this. You said "they are listening to the Casual Player base..." well at this point, that is all the game has are causal players.

 

The main thing this game needs it not more PvP. It is more population. It is spread far to thin across 200 something servers. If they still have that many still up that is. They need to merge the servers and THAT needs to be the priority.

 

So yes, the only people left, or so it seems, are casual players due to population issues through out the entire game.

Not true, They dont have all Casual, Bioware Even stated the 400k they lost WERE CASUAL PLAYERS not hardcore ones.

 

Yesterday we told you about Star Wars: The Old Republic's official 1.3 million subscriber headcount. Electronic Arts has weighed in on the number, with CEO John Riccitello stating that the game's player numbers are "very much in line with our original assumptions."

 

EA's Frank Gibeau says that TOR's 400,000 subscriber drop from its February peak is a result of casual players deciding not to renew after a billing cycle.

 

Eurogamer reports that TOR falls within EA's top 10 most profitable franchises but comes up short of the Battlefield, Medal of Honor, The Sims, and Madden franchises. Riccitello also addressed TOR's high profile in both fan and media circles. "So while I understand there's an enormous amount of interest, I don't know that it warrants as much as what we're seeing right now. But we love the franchise, we're going to grow the franchise," he explained.

 

You are obviously forgetting the reason why these people have left the GAME WHEN THE SERVERS WERE FULL WAS BECAUSE OF LACK OF CONTENT. NOW we are under populated Its the root cause u cannot expect to throw mergers / population without fixing the root cause.

Cross server PvP may have no choice but to go in, unless they merge servers. or offer FREE transfers ASAP. On Kinrath there isn't enough people on most times to support an opposing team if an 8 man team Q'ued up. Repubs are a rare breed, and on the Imp side we are lucky to see 20 people on in fleet.

 

How long before the same 2 teams get tired of facing each other?

 

EA blew it, period. They had the resubs to give RWZ's a go until they axed them prior to 1.2. I am not sure the anally sore people will trust them again.
