The only place where my STD Amarr Assault can survive three Sentinels in CQC AND LAV scrubbery...
Good times, compared to the stagnant pubs.

FW has the same old problem it has always had. new players dont select a single faction and because some factions are more popular because of certain large alliances, all the new/solo players are forced into factional matches (by force I mean they didnt choose the specific race they are fighting for) and the lacking factions get gimped by weak players that become frustrated by constantly losing and select the faction that appears to be winning more causing a larger inbalance in the matches and a vicious cycle of match filling.
Fw needs team Q or only 1 faction (default being your local race) can be selected at a time

We were running std the other day while the other side had at least 8-10 players with apex. Should have spammed FW before it was cool apparently. |

I think it's clear the vast majority of players feel like it's not worth their time. Especially when they spend the majority of their time in pubs where effort and winning actually lead to less profit.
They must not care about their faction then. The problem steams from FW not being a dedicated form of playing the game, like it can be in EVE. I would also love to see people unable to switch sides.
More like Titans of Penis amirite?
Come play a better game.

Have the Amarr APEX sentinel to spam in pubs all day, and I don't lose anything. It's pretty awesome.
I may be missing something, but I'm pretty sure that I didn't call for a tank nerf before Uprising 1.7. - Atiim

I really like FW matches. I LOVE it (and I'm good at NOT damaging blues---never been kicked off or punished in a match ever).
But I doubt that a player fresh from Battle Academy has ANY notion of how important and objective-driven FW sessions are. Unless a new player had visited forums like this or spoken indepth with a seasoned player in a chat someplace, many fresh FW players are likely to thin the only difference here is that "friendly-fire is ON" and LP replaces ISK.
In the most recent week of my FW sessions, I see the same mal-adjusted miscreant activity I used to see in old fps games: a player stabbing-then-reviving blues, two blues having a watergun fight with each other by spraying each other with rifle fire for the entire match, snipers trying to "farm WP for LP", not realizing that LP+Rank are heaped by simply WINNING the match (no longer by WPs like in the Pub matches).
If you fill a seat in FW team and don't DIRECTLY contribute to WINNING the match, you are handicapping us, DIRECTLY robbing every player on the team of 1000+ Loyalty Points, and DIRECTLY stopping EVERY player on that team from gaining any standing points at all. That's a whole Noah's Ark of valuable goods to lose, by the 15 players who were unlucky enough to have you in their match.
But tragedy is, I bet MANY of the fresh FW players honestly don't know this fact--and would appologeticly straighten up and not hit the FW-button so care-freely until they felt really confident in the teamplay abilities.
Is there any component WITHIN the game, that alerts the player that FW is team-driven and team-penalizing and should not be played the way Pub matches are played because fellow players standings are jeopardized in FW? Sadly, no, there is nothing to alert them to that before they "frolic in FW".
We ought to post a [Request] thread for the devs to please come up with a warning advisory of some kind in the Neocom--a brief text that pops up while "searching for battles", to explain fully how FW penalizes fellow players if your merc doesn't help to capture or hold objectives.
Universe of good wishes for the 49, especially CCP Eterne...

I think they are expected to purchase one for 58,000 AUR = $29 in order to get started.

I like how my squad in Gal FW are barely debating anything in game, we're mostly giggling at random **** or talking about how bad the APEX suits look.
We aren't even paying attention to the game and we're still winning.

It was the same all day yesterday in my Minmatar matches until we ran into Regnyum, Cuse and co. We had a very good battle but we finally lost.
Well, we cant win them ALL can we :P 99% is good enough for me 
FW is most certainly worth it by the way.

If they add matchmaking there will be nothing left in this game worth playing. Have you see how terrible the matchmaking in pubs is? MAYBE people should learn how to squad up and fight. For the last 2 days we have been able to win most of our battle with a few very deserving victories going to minmatar players.

Tried fw a bit today. Usually takes at least 8 minutes to get in a battle, only fighting for minmatar. When I get get around 10 minutes I get the scotty error. Take me 13 years to get 100,000 lp's for a free suit. I think I played three games and got five scotty errors after waiting 10 minutes to find a battle. This clearly aint working out to well.
If you choose to fight for any race I always seem to wind up in amar or gallente and get stomped. Minmatar is the race I choose, dont just fight for them because they always seem to win. |

it's not that the noobs went amarr, it's that they were abandoned by players with no loyalty, instead of fighting it out and growing stronger in skill and networking they chose to fold and join the other side..
this is a symptom of a lot of games.. i remember this happening in star wars galaxies that players will flock to one side that's winning and it snowballs the problem.
i chose minmatar in 2010 in EVE because i like the description but now sometimes i want to be amarr because going minmatar has become so hipster. i like pure minmatar fits tho, recently was fooling around with a ACR and flaylock on a min assault.. was really fun.
i cant get into laser, RR, or SCR i'm just not into ranged fighting i prefer CQC which neither amarr or caldari specialize into. some strange RP part of me that i hate also feels that i should stick to a races weapons which my favorite are MD FL and ACR.

It's weird that all these people that complain can't figure that out.
Get some scouts running in uplinks and the squad leaders arranging dropships to the city (one at ground spawn and one from MCC). Focus on uplinks in the beginning (have a few people continue to kill and deploy them).
Use a tanker or two to control an outside point with help from a good slayer scout or two.
Encourage people to have AV fits.
You could spend very little ISK and win most of your matches if you took a little while to build some proper squads and followed some variation of the strategy above.
You're a natural leader. |

This crap is horrible. Even if you wanted to play FW for Gallente & Minmitar, you better have patience and enjoy those 5 - 7 Minute waiting times.
A Question Pops up in my head. .
How were these APEX suits intended for The New Guys of Dust ? If you have to get 100 Winning Games in & play around 200 in all to account for the losses. Not only that you need to run Proto to Compete if you play Amarr or Caldari.
( I Play Amarr & Gallente )
They weren't intended for them.
It was just a milk-money monetization.
With the fact that anyone with a 1,000 DMG weapon can sneak up on you, you could say devs intended on failing this game.
