LordoftheDerps Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Look im a first time complainer as the server's had never really bothered me until now. I just recently took place in a lvl 50 PvP battle where the Rep had 4 players and the Imps had a full team. Not even that since the Rep cant get a team going or anything the Imperials always win, making them gain armor much MUCH faster than any Rep player can. So most of us are Battlemaster/Recruit armor and their whole team is Battlemaster and War Hero, with one guild pretty much ruining the fun for everyone. I cant even stand in a corner and heal for 3 medals its impossible to get anywhere! I no longer can advance in the game because of Biowares fault, and dont even get me started on PvE grouping. Server transfers should have happened last month as now, on a Sunday night at 8pm there is 4 people PvPing on Zaalbarr and I know its worse on other servers. Im not one to complain often but I actually feel like Ive been robbed of what I was promised. The game is not playable in its current state and whenever 1.3 comes out, which will be in probably a month, it will be WAY to late. While this thread probably will get locked for stupid reasons I just want to voice my own opinion in a problem that is much larger than is perceived. No amount of defending Bioware can make up for this blunder, they need to come out and admit they were late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grayseven Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 So...just because you are on the low population side on a specific server, it's Bioware's fault you get creamed in PvP? Create a new toon on a new server. It doesn't take that long to get to 50, especially if you've already done it once, and then you can once again enjoy the game. Whining about lack of transfers isn't going to magically make the design and implementation of such a system happen faster. Bioware didn't force you on to your current server and Bioware didn't force you to chose the low population side, so stop blaming Bioware for a problem you can easily fix by rolling on a new server. I hear Fatman is hopping these days...even has a queue to log in tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordoftheDerps Posted May 28, 2012 Author Share Posted May 28, 2012 The idea of rerolling and starting a new character defeats the point, I was "forced" onto this server simply because at launch they didnt have enough servers i did not want to wait for a queue and Zaalbarr has been standard and up and till a few months ago. Why should I have to put in another 80 hours to level another toon when its Biowares fault I cant play on my main? I hope the mods dont look this as I want to discuss why this is such a huge deal thats been thrown under the rug by a lot of community members.

LancelotOC Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 You are right but they dont want the bad press of server mergers before the 6 month mark. So if you enjoy the game all you can do is wait until 1.3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cerdo_hormiguero Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I love how noobs say "just reroll." That is like saying, "Bioware should randomly delete 1 out of every 3 characters in game. And for those who get unlucky, they can just reroll. Working as intended -- it's good design, I swear!" Failure = a game that forces you to abandon a thousand hours of work due to a lack of fundamental coding (e.g. xfer framework). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxkardinal Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 (edited) just re-roll on another server or do us all a favour and quit. What will you say if you get all you toons and legasy resetted to lvl 1 (situation when you reroll)? Would you do this communtiy a favor and quit or you will be puking with **** on forums?

dronepilot Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 (edited) The options sadly, are to re roll and re grind another toon to 50, on a better server as things are at the moment. I did this too on another server, and my progress on that server has been smooth really. I much rather play on my level 50 War Hero though, but is impossible, other than playing dailies and general pve content. I am a PVP player, on a PVP server, where PVP no longer exists. I really do sympathise with the OP, I understand that sort of thing happened a lot on the server I am on, and yeah the imps got geared much faster than any of us Repubs. I am saying don't leave and give up, just re roll another character, for now, and see how things go. it amazes me, how no action is ever taken against accounts who are being rude to people telling them to 'quit' I have had infractions on here for less.

Satans_Puppet Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 It's your own fault for rolling on a low pop server, not Bioware's. Have you ever thought that like me he was placed on his server by EA/BW when folks were registering guilds? It's not his fault that his server is now dead Rep side and it's not his fault that he's losing if the other team have four extra players. It's also not fair to tell him to reroll on another server because of something that EA/BW should have foreseen when they created all these servers to accomodate the initials SWTOR rush, there would have been an inevitable drop off and community managers should have planned for that. It's not fair to say "Reroll" when the player in question will have already spent time getting his character to 50 and then griding for Battlemaster and other gear...

amnie Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 we had a 4 vs 4 game a while back in voidstar. that was actually fun. but 4 vs 8 sounds a bit meh. though I kind of doubt it happens a lot, since the game mechanics behind the warzones is that it only starts when 5 people on both teams are in queue (so if you are only 4 people, blame the 5th person that didn't take the pop!) and while it's pretty damn hard to win with 5 people, it should be enough to at least get some medals. I know that doesn't really help you, but maybe for a short time the solution could be to ask people on your server to log in at a specific time so you can warzone? (I don't know .how. bad the population on your server is, but you should be able to find about 10 people willing to warzone, it's worth a shot) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Namesis Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Let me put it this way. I rerolled and i hate it. I should never have had to because of bios choices. now i take that out on everyone i come across. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear Fatman is hopping these days...even has a queue to log in tonight. Hey guys. YES IT IS BIOWARE'S FAULT THAT WE HAVE A TON OF SERVERS WITH ONLY 50 PEOPLE ON THEM. Character transfer tech should have been implemented shortly after launch. It wasn't implemented because Bioware has no idea what they are doing. Every MMO goes through a sharp contraction in population after launch. It is like a rule. Bioware should have anticipated this and planned accordingly. They didn't. Thus we have a ton of servers with low populations. We aren't even getting cross server queues in 1.3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterjohndevries Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I would like BW to immediately institute a new feature that takes every person who ever said 're-roll' or 'quit' on the forum in response to BW's huge mistake with creating the environment at launch that created the low population servers in the first place and transfer them to a low population server....that should help the balance immensely oh wait...then we would have to play with them..... yuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pbxsparx Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 its BW fault that ppl play a game or not? reroll or uninstall. Don't say crap like this. Some people spend months to get to level 50 and all you could say is "REROLL"? That's just stupid. In a way it is BW's fault but of course not entirely, the reason why people don't play or leave servers is and is also possibly BW's fault. Think before you speak and enough with the non-sense of "rerolling". It's actually one of the major causes of dwindling population in various servers.

HeavensTerror Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I really hate when people say reroll. I have four 50s on this server and three are +70 valor. I have over 30 days of playtime. So I'm simply going to throw it all away and have to grind everything again? lol you're crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
