Just as a public service announcement, performance is never EVER the deciding factor of what the devs will or will not do. The resources in question are development resources, not technical resources.

There actually is an algorithm for pleasing everyone. It's written in a forgotten language around the inside of the holy grail, one of the items in the ark of the covenant, which is either on Terra Australis or got lost in the mail.

Wut? Try using Surveillance on something: you'll see its resistance and defense debuffed by the power, then crank back up when they wear off.

Fixt.

But but... !




I always make a point to say "Hey, looks like you guys have a pretty good start right there!" and... they usually don't end up forming a team together.

For player characters, the boundary is a fixed-size cylinder at all times, which cannot rotate. Enemies don't always follow this rule.

*Runs off to form a blueside Kal*

It's just like Sutter, after all. You know, from the other side.

And what part of my argument focused on finding a preexisting team?

Of course those aren't as common redside: there aren't as many people redside. But does that make it impossible or even difficult to team? It certainly doesn't. Look at all the other posts in this thread sharing their experiences forming teams redside.

The problem is the people; the ones who say "I want someone to invite me to their team" in a setting where it's quite unlikely to happen that way. In what convoluted route of problem solving can that be interpreted as a problem with the system?

"Snide" isn't quite what I was going for. It's not intense enough... More like "jerk-faced obnoxious jackhole with an attitude problem."

People being unwilling to form teams, frankly, is not a deficit of redside in any conceivable context. It's the deficit of the people who play redside, or in this case, don't play redside and instead run back to blueside where people will hold their hand.

I thought I was joking when I suggested people who can't find a team redside were just waiting for an invitation to drop into their laps. But as this thread progressed, and the more people I talked to about it in-game, the more I've found that's exactly what's going on.

Everyone, know this and learn it well, for it is the summary of the matter: anyone who claims to have a problem with redside teaming is expecting something to be served to them on a silver platter.

Irony much?

Assuming you're telling the truth, you must have had +HP and +Regen out the roof. I even went to Rikti War Zone and found a -4 Sapper, which still did too much damage. He eventually got bored and went away.

Is this entire thread out of touch? Has anyone actually tried forming a team redside, or has everyone just stood around watching the Broadcast channel hoping for someone to announce a team looking for more?

Aha! So you ARE marketing!
