Yettofall Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 (edited) So a 8 man team was ravaging my pug team. I quit 1 hour lockdown fun, right? Edited December 13, 2022 by Yettofall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinzzun Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 The amount of 8 man premades on Darth Malgus is COMPLETELY unacceptable, game after game ! I am so angry at Bioware for enabling this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sGroggy Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Whut? Are you telling us they increased the lockout from 15 to 60 minutes? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am so angry at Bioware for enabling this. but according to a few posters here the 8 pug should be able to beat the 8 premade... It's not like instant voice communication, picking classes and skills to work together, knowing and understanding how to win, and basically being geared properly makes a difference... compared to a pug team that probably doesn't even know how to activate objectives. It's going to be bad for a few weeks. Just accept the loss and hope you gain 8 medals per game. Edited December 14, 2022 by illgot 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monterone Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 (edited) Why give us negative count for leaving a warzone when there is already a draconian 15 minute penalty? Or if you want to penalize people for leaving warzones for the season reward system then do that, but remove the additional time penalty on it. There is really no need to have so many punishment and slow-down mechanisms in what is meant to be a fun game. One or the other, please. Edit: Is the 1 hour penalty on second warzone left intended? This would be a deal breaker for me. If a group is just wasting time and fighting and not playing objectives in an 8v8 match, they will cause a loss anyway. I will leave and do something else in that case; my time is limited. So why force me to play with such groups or give me hour long penalties if I leave? Wth devs?

Mycroft-Tarkin Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Why would you quit a match just because of your teammates? That's toxic. In 7.2 Bioware has solved toxicity in the game. You do not ever need to leave a match anymore. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krackcommando Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 i think they want you to form your own team so that doesn't happen. or at least that's the answer I think you'd hear...assuming you'd get an answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afwhoefuwov Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 (edited) I got the same 1 hr lockdown as OP. Problem is: I didnt leave the warzones early. Say I logon to my Mara, played a WZ, then press Queue. It's taking too long to queue so I logout of my Mara, then hope on to my Sorc. On my Sorc, I tried to queue for a WZ. The Warzone queue window on my Sorc said that my Mara is still on queue... So I kept pressing queue on my sorc, couldnt queue. I then logged out of my Sorc and went back to my Mara, the system said that I need to wait for 1hr. What the heck, Bioware? I thought 15 mins is already riddiculous, but a 1hr lockdown ?! I would gladly take the 15 mins lockdown if I intentionally left the warzones early. Edited December 14, 2022 by afwhoefuwov Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
assatrap Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 So... If internet accidently glitches out... you DC unintentionally during a wz/arena... 1 hour punishment? That could Ruin a whole Evening especially if you playing with friends.I see the point you trying to make devs... but this is way too brutal 😅Increase from 15 to 20min is more then enough. You have to account for external factors. Beyond the Players Control! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the 1hr lock, then 20 mins later, my friend got the 1 hr lock herself lmao. Reason: network is bad so she got stuck in spawn at Huttball. We're not gonna wait for 2 hrs to be able to queue again. Funny because subscribed, so every single minute of our subscription should include the time for gameplay. The 1 hr lock kinda removes the playtime. I understand because leaving a match early can be a bad sport. But even that, 10 mins is the maximum tbh. Maybe if ranked is still around, then maybe 15 mins lockdown is ok because your absence can cause your team to lose elo and rankings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illgot Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 10 minute lockout would be fine. 15 mins is a bit too long and 1 hour is insane. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My internet can be fickle sometimes and also sometimes i gotta close the game and attend to real life real quick and i don't see how going afk in a warzone where you end up getting kicked and the penalty on top of that is better?

Mycroft-Tarkin Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Anyone who is losing a match could plug out their cable and say "oh no my internet dc, please don't give me lockout" so that they don't affect their personal stats, and can queue again after 15 minutes. 1 hour is fine. Should lockout for whole day imo, you dc from one game that means you can play tomorrow, go fix your internet today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's not even counting the disparaging classes that just rick roll you by breathing on you. Fun stuff (NOT!). Everyone I talk to in PVP is upset at the game right now. They could not have destroyed the game more than they have right now. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, my wife pulls the power cable from the router by accident while cleaning; I definitely deserve to be locked out for a full day.

That's just another reason to have longer lockout. 1 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do realize that not all of us have the capacity to just play whenever we want right? Some of us have maybe a period of time like an hour or two at most, some nights, to play. So yes, an hour lock out is a huge deal for a penalty on you when you did nothing wrong. Most of the time lately I'm able to only get on for a half hour for instance.

AldoraTheFirst Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 Wow, 1 hour of a lockdown? And when I think that I was hoping for removing lockdown completely?! As few members already said, I also sometimes have problem with a network connection, and it happens that the server kick me out while I’m in PVP, and now I won't be able to play for 1 hour because of that? If they keep those stupid rules, I'm gonna stop being a subscriber. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
