Ikya Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 (edited) Dear Bioware, I have some suggestions 1. Remove lockout completely for leaving warzones. 2. Implement a solo queue for warzones. 3. Chat bubbles, its an mmo. Thanks PS. The lack of points 1 to 3 make other mmos looks a lot more desirable to me. PPS. Did swtor get some competitors working from withing O_- ------------------------------------------ As a follow up: yesterday I got disconnected during a lagfest huttball where our team was being spawn camped at the starter area. Screen goes blank and a few seconds later shows me the server list. How can you justify 20 minute -> 1 hour -> 6 hour lockouts when the tech isnt guaranteed to work?

Kristallia Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 Sorry for silly question, but dont we already have solo queue for warzones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikya Posted December 20, 2022 Author Share Posted December 20, 2022 yes and no, you can queue solo and fight against 8 organised players, so what im really saying without being completely explicit with it, is solo ONLY queue. thanks for clearing that up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats one of the things I loved about SWG too. When you think about the systems built into swg, it was all about encouraging collaboration, compared to the systems in wow and swtor which encourage toxicity. Then the wow devs try and create a social contract to get their players to play nice while they themselves created a toxic playground for them to play in.

Well, i don't know anything about WoW ( never played it, never wanted to ) . As for SWTOR though: i wouldn't say they encourage "toxicity" , but rather in contrast to SWG's purity of community, BioWarEA made a decision long ago to encourage (and entice) players to depend on THEM , instead of fostering the aforementioned Community (for more prolonged content, crafting, creativity, etc. etc. ) . -- aka the whole 'themepark vs. sandbox' debate.
