3.05 PvP

In patch 3.05, the Grand Companies once again ask for the aid of adventurers in staking their claim to Allagan relics.

*rolls eyes* Why bother with the GC limitations, you're making new maps for nothing. You're in a high populated GC? have fun and wait for hours in a queue until other GCs meet the requirement... :rolleyes:
No problem! switch GC so you can lose all your progression so far.

They spent all this effort to make a new mode and it'll be unplayable for the same reason the old modes were.

Brilliant.

They always ignored our feedback about it and put lore above gameplay. It's really silly that after this long it has never been changed.

Fail incoming in.......

I was so looking forward to pvp, but it seems that yet again if I want to play I'll have to make sure I have the whole day free... And sit in queue for 3 hours until it rings. If it does at all....

The sad thing is, if they removed GC vs GC vs GC Frontline would be instant que.

They should add some kind of mercenary system or something, that would at least speed up the que times a bit, especially if you are from a overpopulated Grand Company.

I'm sure SE could come up with some satisfying lore for this too.

Pls Understand.

That's true. The GC are limitations. Just make it free without these damn gc

For the first time in the game, with Frontlines SE gave us content we could enter unencumbered by role restrictions- no need to wait on DPS/Healer/Tank ratio to be met queueing in, and the ability to change class upon arrival, which was great. Finally, the ability to play something as soon as the minimum number of players was met, unlike with how everything else works. EXCEPT.... they had to throw in this GC restriction that made it even worse. Ask any player, would you rather-

A. Be able to play a match at the point you decide to by queueing through DF, or
B. Wait up to over an hour to play that same match so you can be aligned only with those who arbitrarily chose the same GC as a sub-level 25 player

A. Be able to queue up with our friends and/or anyone else of your choosing such as people who ask you for advice on how to PVP effectively, or
B. Your friends have to swap GC's to queue with you (one did yesterday but that is a hell of a lot to ask)

A. Have the overall pool of players you're aligned with & against on the battlefield (beyond those you queue with) be randomly determined one match to the next
B. Have the same opponents & teammates match after match, so whatever dynamics exist outside your control that contribute to a win or loss never change

A. If we must have the GC restriction, have it so stronger, more experienced players can easily change teams to give newer/weaker GC's a chance and balance out queue times a bit or...
B. Allow someone to make that team swap, but lock it in for 15 days and oh yeah, you start over at 0 with PVP rank for each GC and can no longer equip PVP rank-tied gear you earned (even for glamour purposes).

What everybody seems to want is A. What we've been given is B.
