vymm Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Ok, guys, we dont have LFG tool and maybe will never get it. But maybe at least meeting stone or other device to summon party/raid members to instance/flashpoint?! I feel myself playing something really ancient like UO, LA2, EQ - games with no any modern, reasonable, comfy features. Spamming chat with LFG is soooo interesting nowadays. Please, dont tell me to press P and put LFG flag. Its not serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSykes Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Is running to the fleet that difficult? Jeez, they have portals to basically every instance there and that's too hard? Might as well just give you the loot without running it at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naroga Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 I agree. If they won't give us Flying Lemur Guppies, they should at least give us... wait, what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raximillian Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 You have an emergency fleet transport as well that takes you directly to the fleet. Use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fallenvirtues Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 emergency fleet pass doesn't work for you? Is there a emergency fleet pass??? I have no problem traveling and so forth so a summoning stone or whatever isnt needed in my eyes, but I'd like to take advantage of the emergency fleet pass...How do I access that???

keatonb Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 (edited) The WoW comparing is strong in this one.... Ahahaha, love this. But seriously. It's not hard to actually GO to an instance. Quit being so lazy. In my day we had to go across 38 zones barefoot in the snow with no mounts or space travel to get to a dungeon.

Valanze Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Actually I like this idea. I would like this or when the 1st player zones into a group zone or heroic zone or Flashpoint the other members in group get a would you like to shuttle to X person message.

fallenvirtues Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Yea people got to realize games like WoW didnt originally have SOME features until people complained to much about not having it easy enough.. If there wasnt mass whining from people being lazy, I can guarantee you, WoW would still be a lot more like Vanilla then it is now...All you have to do is just sit in a major city in WoW now a days and not even move...I find that majorly lazy in my eyes and takes away any hint of some kind of realism...I know its a game but doesnt mean it cant have SOME realistic aspects...Like actually having to travel to your destination...

Edryk Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 You have an emergency fleet transport as well that takes you directly to the fleet. Use it. Not an option. If you look at the customer service forum, there are places where you can get stuck between doors that won't open. I'd rather not be unable to play for 17 hours if I chance upon one of those areas. It's called EMERGENCY for a reason. And has a cooldown that makes it impractical to use every time you want to do a flashpoint. Still have to travel if you're doing one a second time for the day. I've been in the middle of a cave in some back alley of Hoth and had groups wait 10-15 minutes at the flashpoint portal. What is so gamebreaking about a summon ability?

Thorun Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 This thread isnt going to go anywhere. The Fanbois are going to call you lazy and just plain insult you and tell you to go back to wow or something stupid. So here's a free bump for your suggestion and shields up!

Nidien Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Ahahaha, love this. But seriously. It's not hard to actually GO to an instance. Quit being so lazy. In my day we had to go across 38 zones barefoot in the snow with no mounts or space travel to get to a dungeon. Lol But yeah, stop being a lazy *** OP and travel. Even at the most extreme if you were on the other side of the zone, a quick travel then hitting a space port up takes less than 5 min, 10 if you had to run, give me a break.

Ceridan Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 The game is fine without meeting stones / lfg tool. Fast travel to the spaceport, then take your ship to the fleet... or use the emergency fleet transport if you want. In WoW, meeting stones where necessary because of the sometimes excessive travel time, in SWTOR travelling back to the fleet does not take that long if you skip the 2 scenes.

tstar Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 (edited) I am going to assume you are just unfamiliar with the game completely since its still new. I'll list the resources you have available to you to get to the fleet from virtually anywhere quickly. 1. Emergency Fleet Pass (24 hour cool down) located in your abilities\skills panel under the general tab. 2. Your ship which is generally a quick travel away assuming you got the bind points ( you do get the bind points right?). If you don't have a ship and you are on Coruscant or Drummand Kaas then you can still use quick travel to the space port and take the shuttle to the fleet 3. Flashpoint shuttle. There is a flashpoint shuttle on every planet that is in the questing area and normally near a speeder point. This transport actually drops you directly into the mission area of the fleet. Also a note on your map the flashpoint shuttle is notated with large print (Flashpoint Shuttle). However it's not visible on the planet wide map just the localized map. This would be a good addition to add to the planet wide map points of interest. Hope that helps. If you are aware of these things and just wanting others to do the work for you ( which is what a meeting stone did in reality) then you should consider what a group really is and it's about teamwork which mean you doing your part. Your part includes knowing how and getting your tail to the mission location in a timely fashion. Edit: because posting from a phone sucks sometimes.

Astasia Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Every planet has a Fleet Shuttle near a taxi/save point that takes you to the flashpoint launch area instantly. Use your fast travel to move to the fleet shuttle area and bam, you are ready to jump into the FP. The Emergency Fleet Transport ability does have a 24 hour cooldown, but the security key shop sells Fleet Passes that do the same thing on a 60 minute cooldown for only 1000 credits.

Spaghetti_Ninja Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 How about no? This game doesn't need a LFG tool, nor does it need ''meeting stones''. It's easy enough to teleport to the fleet, and walk to the instance or take your ship if it's somewhere else. Stop being such a lazy slob and wanting to dumb the system down.
