What are you talking about? Wherever I go there's always some exile fools asking for a gank when I go to a daily quest area. If you're playing exile that's your choice, don't blame the game. You have chosen the most populated faction by far, which always, always sucks for pvp related things, no matter which game you play. :) I can get dungeon queues quite reliably. I'm a dps so it takes time but getting 2-3 dungeon queues during the evening has never been an issue for me. I don't try to get more during week days because that's enough for me, I'm mentally exhausted after 1h or 2 of dungeon crawling here. Just as a reminder there are 3 times (more or less, that's just my guess) more exiles... So your pve queues should be a lot better. Tried to queue as a healbot or tank lately? Practice battlegrounds... I could play that all the time if I was willing to pvp more. Queues are so fast that sometimes I don't have time to vendor the crap we get in reward boxes. But yeah, dominion. Always pick the evil side if you ever want to have an interesting pvp experience, that's a rule for all MMOs. And I'm on Jabbit. Queues are cross server. I see many players from luminai in battlegrounds (the potato guys, surely you know them). So you're either not playing when everyone else does, or you've just not tried and made a rage post full of crap, because this is simply not true.

1. I always queue as healer and DPS for all vets. Queues are a hour long or longer. 2. We have even agreed to play against potatoes solely. They managed to get 5 guys, we did arena for a bit. Then both sides (5 players each) tried queueing for battlegrounds (cross server mind you). We convinced another 4 dominion and 5 exiles from Jabbit to queue. After 2 hours of waiting potatoes gave up, exiles followed shortly. Yes, in 2 hours time on the evening, at most populated time, we couldn't find 1 SINGLE guy to PvP with. I'm sorry, but the queues are not alright. They're nowhere near alright. A lot of people don't even step foot in pvp, because queues don't pop outside of weekends and grinding up the gear with queues even on the weekends being half an hour apart takes too long. Stop pointing at dirt and telling me that the grass is green. Because it's not. And with such bad issues, I really can't recommend this MMO nor blame people leaving.

I will be one of those leaving if that ever happens.

I agree with you. I'm pretty sure that the forums aren't where the people they're listening to talk with them. But FranBunnyFFXII is still 100% correct--they've listened to too many of the wrong people for too many of the wrong reasons.

No they listened a lot of people before the game went live, especially during the closed beta, as well as on twitter and facebook.

Go ahead and look back at their marketing, "The Devs are listening!"

For months and months they spouted this trying to get input, and there were droves of suggestions all over the forums, some of which definitely ended up in game.

One of the most memorable was the issue of breast size reduction in female characters, as well as the suggestions for Body types. Both of which actually happened.

Problem is that Once NCSoft pushed WildStar out the door before it was ready to fly on its own, Carbine had to go full steam and try to get the rest of this shit done, AND fix the bugs issues and problems, and work on a large amount of developer content at the same time.

There for now, all those so called "Good suggestions" like the stupid freaking 40 player raiding from people still with their head stuck up in the past, are biting them in the ass.

Look at them now, having to completely retool a raid because the game can't physically operate around 40 player raid content.

Just look at how many guilds just dropped the game and quit. Just outright quit.

If they had paid attention to market metrics and research instead of getting hooked up on these people stuck in the gold ole' glory days Carbine wouldn't be stuck up river without a paddle scrambling figure out how to get them out of rough waters.

I can't begin to express how stupid of an idea Warplots was, and even with feedback about its excessively large size, they went with it anyways, because people thought it was so cool.

We'll here's the thing Carbine, 90% of the time Players don't actually know what they want, and they end up getting the wrong idea about what's viable and actually meaningful for their gameplay experience.

That doesn't mean Carbine screwed up entirely, They did a really fantastic job of innovating the action combat trend, Started with games like vindictus, got more intuitive with games like Tera and Guild Wars 2, and now WildStar just tops it off with a fantastic fusion of it all.

But Dual factions? Warplots? 40 player end game content?

Just a heads up everyone and the powers that be, requiring a lot of players doesn't make a game hardcore, requiring a lot of skill and coordination does.

Don't even get me started on all the massive problems with PVP, and super short level cap.

Man I was excited to hear a while back that Carbine originally intended to the game to be a 250hour 1~50 leveling span, a bit short for my tastes but would have been insanely better than the 97 hours it took for me and a team of people goofing off and dealing with log in queues off to get max level.

There were so many problems and mistakes made by listening to user suggestion, and Carbine's "The Devs are listening, stuck in the past, lets make world of warcraft right" mentality.

I hate to be so harsh on Carbine, because there's a lot of the game that's bloody fantastic, and I absolutely do not want this game to fail, and if it can stay pay to play.

I'm totally ok with paying 15$ a month for this game, but I can't validate that when I log in, and by the time I've tried to get anything done, I'm fustrated that It took so long to do anything.

Even sitting around in blighthaven gold farming, for hours and hours on end I still can't find enough people to get my Blighthaven reputation done most days.

And that's really *cupcake*ing frustrating.

Right now I'm thinking of just heading back to Vindictus, because I'm still not max level 400 hours later, and its still ridiculously fun to play, and I don't have to worry about crap holding me back because other players aren't around.

It may not be the best game out there, but at least I can log in and I got plenty of stuff to do rather than waiting around for a raid to start or sitting half AKF waiting for scorchwing to spawn so I can get that one time daily quest...

Are they going to fix people? This could get messy.

Examples? (Where they listened to "all the wrong people"? Please, not f2p again.................)

There isn't much to say on that topic sadly. We cannot force players who moved to PvE to come back to PvP. The population level is the issue here and it's not something that can be solved by itself since it is related to much bigger problems we are currently addressing. Are we aware of the Luminai issue? We have concurrency data so obviously yes. Can we solve it straight away or by taking quick measures? No :(. This in an on-going process which will take time. The November update was only the very first step. We will disclose more information about what's coming in 2015 soon. If we do not reply/intervene on a thread it's not because we are ignoring the problem or anything, it's just because there is not much we can say regarding that matter -right now-.

It's not so much how minor the temp bans were that bothered me. Most people I know that did it were back the next day even It's that they got to keep everything. having a guy that started at 10p get to take a day off and come back with full amp/ability points, expert riding, and fully slotted and runed gear but 0p. That's a trade I'd take any day, Make's me feel bad I didn't exploit too And they say they had it all under control but all the way overpriced AH items that injected tons of plat into the economy didnt get fixed at all. everything on AH is still way more expensive than before
