Make it so changing GC's doesn't reset your PvP Rank

[KenshinHomura]

That's fine so long as you permit us to Frontline alongside friends of different GC affiliation, FC mates or otherwise.

That would defeat the whole purpose of Frontlines, if GC's didn't matter. He already said it was just a cooldown adjustment, which is great IMO because all my GC's were maxed and could never decide which was my favorite.

You'd really be happy if you & your friends were Rank 30+ in different GC's, thus forcing some of you to switch GC's to Frontline together... beginning all over again at Rank 1?

Do you have any idea the grind required to get to 40? To forsake that for the sake of Frontlining with my friends is an absurd requirement.

It isn't just a cooldown adjustment. If you're already PVPing getting to a high rank takes a few thousand PVP matches (not counting how many you actually need to -win-.

I'm only at Rank 16. I regularly have to wait 10-20min for just one match. At this moment I've done about 250 matches with about 70% win ratio.

I'm sorry but I'm not even willing to change Grand Companies at rank 16, let alone people who have been doing it to rank 30+

[Parz3val]

Not to mention the 5:1 win-loss ratio reward disparity being so harmful to the system.

Winners stay winners by a landslide in short order.

Especially assisting cheats/win-traders in pummeling those who try to rank legitimately.

Rank 30 & beyond, I keep getting these full win-traded teams in Rank 40 sets who get off on beating up lesser ranks for more r40 gear.

It's so utterly imbalanced.

Greetings,

To coincide with the release of Frontline in patch 2.3, we’ll be changing the cool down period that you need to wait after changing your Grand Companies allegiance from 30 days to 15 days.

Aside from this, we currently don’t have any plans to make changes to how the system is currently set up.

I support this. Furthermore, please make it so that every time we change job (ie WAR->SCH) it is reset back to lv1. People should be allowed to play only one job at a time and if they want to play something else, they should go get 2.5M experience points again to change. I miss losing XP on death too - if someone fails too much, they should eventually delevel to 49 and go do some dungeons or FATE to le-rearn how to play.

SE you never cease to surprise; you obviously don't listen to your customers. Do as you please, I won't argue with you or any other trivial discussion... Simple put; you will have one less subscribing customer utilizing your new horrible program. To the rest of you beautiful people enjoy Frontlines, Back to other PvP games be eaz.

Frontline 7/15/14 (qued 7/12/14- stay tuned 72 hours your que will pop).

If you wanna have an easy time winning, join the immortal flames as a lot of die hard / hardcore pvpers are immortal flames on the adamantoise server.
So is this an oversight or is it as intended as what if most of the good pvpers on a server all decide to join 1 GC so that when they Q they will have a very good chance of playing together. So in return that 1 GC team will be stacked in 8/10 battles?
If ppl are smart enough to organize win trading and seeing that SE kinda disregards it for the early half, what's going to stop em from doing so?
* assuming that FL won't be cross servers.

If by "alongside" you mean trying to kill each other, then yes. You'll probably have to rely on luck to make it through the DF at the same time though.

The entire concept of Frontlines is the 3 GCs fighting one another for their respective city-state. If you think people from different GC will be able to fight on the same side I would highly doubt that.

[KenshinHomura]

Thing is the rank doesn't matter if morale gear you obtain for rank 30+ doesn't matter in Frontlines either, so why does rank matter so much for your point Parz? It doesn't matter either to complain about it neither, if they already said what is GOING to happen. I am glad it is GC competition like how it kind of was in FF11's Ballista.
