First of all, if people were complaining about it taking too long to get into a battle, this was not the solution. Patience is a virtue you bastards. I miss the warbarge. I miss staring at the meaningless glowing map and the RDVs who will inevitably fail me... I miss hearing about the progress being made on that tram system and the reminders about suicide in public areas. What I miss the most, however, is the ability to see who the flying duck I am up against. It's nice to know if I should prepare myself to take a rough beating in my posterior or if I'll be doing the beating. I just got out of a match in which a six man team lost to a four man team. My theory is that we did horribly against four people because we were unaware of the odds. Either that or the more likely theory that the four blues just really really sucked. I knew the enemies and had an idea of their skill level. We should have at least done a decent job. (One of the blues actually did very well, he deserves a medal.) Anyway, all that aside, I really miss the warbarge. Bring it back! Maybe with some new content and something useful besides seeing our odds. It helps to be mentally psyched for certain matches. |

The war room sill exists. Its just that the new matchmaking puts you more frequently in already started or about to start matches. I was in the barge the other day during a FW. Its not gone. |

I miss seeing the Warbarge during PUB matches. Without that, I can't show off my fancy Proto suit unless it's FW or PC :( |

Its still there, the game loads you to the war barge right before the battle starts and then loads you into battle If you are lucky or whatever sometimes youll see it flash on your screen for half a second |

gone for pub matches for good with new match making system. faction warfare doesn't have match making, so you still go into the warbage for ~1min |

I miss the WB too, its like a whole chunk of content is missing or I briefly see every now and then.
WB antics were great, and yes I want to see the opposing side! |

We shortened the warbarge waiting time in pub matches to almost 0 so people spend more time in battle.
We have another round of matchmaking changes coming up, and a big update to FW so we might bring it back specifically for FW to give people a bit of time to organise the team. |

Yea, folks were saying that they were spending too much time in Warbarge.
It just goes to show you that while some feel CCP aren't listening, our words have a definite affect on the game.
I do miss her telling us "Suicide is restricted in public areas..."
Maybe when they bring it back, the tram system will finally be opened... |

This was also just a case of ourselves playing the game and thinking "we sure do spend a lot of time waiting around before battle, I'd rather be shooting in face right now". |

for me it's like this:
Loading screen Warbage flashes up for 0.5 seconds (the warbage-timer says something like 7sec) Screen fades and goes to the battle-overview map.
Nothing serious, but kind of useless if my PS3 can't keep up with the shoooort warbage times to load it. |

Many people I talk to would like to have the choice of being in the WB (or similar) instead of their MQ's, or at least have a choice. Is this something that is being looked at?
Squads for pub matches are formed in the WB and the player roster loads quicker too. |

...and just like we miss Chromosome, and just like how many who played last year will never forget Skirmish 1.0, here we have another example of the debilitating effects of nostalgia.
Perhaps, just perhaps, the current game is good, but we're just clouded by past memories that seemed like better days, but in actuality were never as good as what we have now. |

Make the table useful at least by showing the actual map we'll be playing on if you're bringing it back (and yes, I also miss the time when the minimap was an actual map and not a set of markers) |

Na in open beta when i started playing being a heavy was being a real integral part of the team. You were called upon to clear a path to a objective. |

This was also just a case of ourselves playing the game and thinking "we sure do spend a lot of time waiting around before battle, I'd rather be shooting in face right now". This is idiotic, it just means games launch with unbalanced teams (4 versus 9, etc), which become more unbalanced as players on the minority team leave the battle. I also like to see who I'm playing with and against; when you're launched straight into the game, this is impossible (unless you're willing to waste valuable time at the start of the battle). So the social dimension of the game is undermined. For the love of God, bring back the 60-90 sec war barge. |

Yea the WB timer was fine as it was before, honestly if the war table isnt even capable of being used for strategic planning as it is intended, i suppose unbalanced teams is the least of our worries as the game goes from being more focused on strategy to being focused on "I R NEED KILL NAO" mentality of rapid spawn/death of COD. Give me tiered strategic (Very marginal)buffs per command level for those in proximity to Squad Lead, Specialist, Field Command similar to MAG command bonus that added things like a very slight explosive resistance, heightened hearing, etc. when in close proximity to leaders.
Or we can just be realistic and say hey can we get the strategic table that is advertised as being a tool to plan things out in the warbarge to actually work, maybe some moveable icons for SLs and such, think that'd be spiffy :) |

If you had a logi with a core focused repper, you were damn near invulnerable ...until you had to reload. Also back then, nobody complained aboutl logis killing.

Games are a lot more fun if you can give people choices... instead of making arbitrary changes to their gameplay all the time. |
