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".
Stop being terrible game designers
70% of the timer we don't even see the war barge anymore, you just don't want us to notice when you pull the whole room out and cause a huge "unexpected" backlash wasting our time and yours.
If you want it to be shoter just have NO TIMER until the room is full, then have a 30 second timer once both sides are full
Oh wait that's actually exactly how you used to do it. Until chromosome when you changed it so it took 3 plus minutes of waiting in the war barge. Oh great fix guys. So now you go full tilt the other direction and we barely have the warbarge!
Will you guys stop breaking stuff that used to work and then forgetting it wasn't always broken, so you don't break it even more? please? Is that too much to ask? |

True we play a lobby shooter that never has both teams full when the match starts. Why? it wasn't always that way! CCP WHY!!!!
Seriously has anyone had a public match start with both sides full? I haven't. |

It is not supposed to be a buffer while we fill up the match though, that should happen for the most part before you enter the warbarge. We obviously still have work to do on that front, but I'll have a chat to Scotty on our next update to see if he can do a better job of that.
what? why not? Since when?
I know for a fact this is how it used to work. Is this because of the new battlefinder with the map scanner? If you just want to drop us into a match I agree with other people what's the point of the warbarge?
Here's an idea...
Remove the Warbarge from public matches all together. Think about it, you're sitting in your Quarters, you can refit and buy stuff right there. The new squad finder replaces the warbarge as a lobby to pick people up.
Factional Warfare and Planetary conquest on the other hand should use the Warbarge all the time. If it's possibe it's be neat if we could stay in the Warbarge even after battle in FW and PC. Build the UI for finding battles right into the Warbarge and let us have a social space we can stand around in with our corp mates while waiting for the matches to fill up. Also the map is more important in the Warbarge. Since in PC we'll be fighting over installations there for the map will be perfect for discussing tactics before we all get dropped into the match.
But please, please don't make the Warbarge timer so short no one barely notices it anymore. I mean if it's going to be barely 10 seconds of the warbarge why have it at all?

Yes actually we would, there is a subtle difference in that we can consider you for multiple different battles during the time in the MQ but once you are in the warbarge you are committed to that battle even if a better option opens up while you are waiting.
Good point about FW orbitals though.
AH HA! so it is the new battle finder that changed the warbarge. Awesome. Please then just consider removing the warbarge from public matches alltogether.
Please improve the usability of the Warbarge for FW and PC. |

I would be able to plan out what proto scrub gear to run in the match. we could tell what district we are about to attack as well... wouldn't that be helpful... |
