I would like to see more Faction Warfare battles being spawned by the system. I understand that it is kind of complex given the nature of how they are generated (through events in Eve) but I think a lot of Mercs would be happy if the importance of the FW battles was decreased so that more battles could be spawned. In other words the effect that a battle has in Eve could be reduced in order for more battles to be generated for a given planet/system.
Due to the nature of PC it doesn't really allow for structured and organised practice so that leaves the small to medium corps with no way of doing any meaningful practices without queue synching into FW. On peak evenings it could take up to 30mins to synch 2 squads into one FW battle and that is no fun.
I believe that leaving this issue on the long finger will negatively impact on the amount of new players who will stick with the game because who wants to pick up a game, jump into a pub match and be stomped over and over? At least if randoms do join FW they have a chance to squad up with organised players and hopefully win some matches. In our Corp we will always try to pick up random players if we have space in the hope that we can help them enjoy the game a little more, maybe give them some guidance on skills etc and then if they enjoy fighting alongside us they might join our Corp but that is not a requirement. We are just happy to pick people up and run a few FW battles with them. If they join, well and good, if not then that's fine too.

I agree with your post and i add my request.
A players list before entering a FW battle.
I remember that in BF3 you can see the player list before entering a server, i think it would be useful for FW. |

+1 dude. Here's hoping CCP give a bit of love towards FW. Considering that one of the big sales points of Dust is that it's linked with EvE, FW is the connection and it is very rough at the moment. They really need to improve present mechanics like increasing the generation of battles, and add to it like a queuing system for full teams wanting to fight for specific races.
As it stands at the moment, FW is the exact same as instant battles, just with a better chance of getting more of our Corp mates in at once. There is no real incentive to fight for a specific side unless it is only one squad being deployed, because as you pointed out, it can take too long to wait for a specific racial battle to pop up with space. FW is the only reason I'm still having alot of fun even with lag issue, etc. |

Press "up" on your directional pad when in the warbarge. There's everyone who's participating in the match. |

Nice to know they are looking at it anyway.
I think what Shaman Oga meant was that it would be nice to see a player list before you are in the warbarge, something like the server browser in BF3, you can press a button to show the details of the server including a list of players who are in the server.
I'm not sure how well that kind of system would work with the current set up because as soon as I see a battle with space in it I'm joining it! I don't care who is already in the server!
I think the current FW system is set up for less than around 6000 players because if I log into the servers and there is 5600 players online I can join a FW battle pretty quickly. Once the numbers go above 6000 players the FW system slows down and you have to wait for battles to show up, and even at that they sometimes just show up full anyway. |

I would Love having DOZENS of Merc Battles.
Examples that these battles could be over
1) Caldari Mega Corp Hatred
2) Pirate Attacks
3) Terrorist Battles (Touchy Subject, I Know. But People Didn't ***** and moan about the Taliban in MW1. I think)
4) FW Battles
5) Smaller Corp Battles that Aren't Full Yet.
See, Many Opportunities for Merc Matches, and those Matches enrich the Game for Loners, or those in Small/Crappy Corps |
