That aside, you should get your facts right. You claim there were no reports of progress... Please see the quote below and try to say that again, okay?

Ok, I guess we will be seeing these things soon then.

This sounds like you think everything listed is complete. Does this mean that you think there's no progress unless stuff is 100% done? If so, I am very happy you're not my boss. ;)

I do, because it tells you what's being worked on from almost every dev involved in AO. I mean, how much clearer do you want it to be for you?

nice BS changes^^...no more ranged newbs hiding in geometry of map!

One more question : Is there anything done about balancing numbers of players join on each side of BS?

quite often, i see 6 clans get in and 3 omnis get in? Wasn't 4 was the min. number of players needed to start bs, so why doesn't the Queue Manager wait for both sides to achieve 4 players then allow any further player addition?

Were you #3 in queue when the round started? Are you sure someone didn't sign up after you making 4? None of these things were stated in your previous post, therefore my reply was based on the information that was provided.

Now how about you try again. :)

I liked the sniping and suprising other snipers. So bs is the new duel-room now...:rolleyes:

thats the problem. BS starts based on queue and not on how many accepts invitation.

and bs is mostly one side outnumbering the other. if 6 clan sign up and only 4 omni usually all of them get invite. broken system. i dont understand why they didnt fixed that when they changed the bs starting reqs from 6 to 4 players.......

Worse still is when the round is about 4 to 6, or 3 to 6. Then halfway through the round another person signs up on the smaller side, so the queue system lets in that person and 2-3 people for the larger side, making it more unbalanced. It happens. It happened just a few nights ago.

I've seen that you still stay in queue even when your toon logs off.

I logged out of my toon in queue #4, I logged back in 2 hours later, still #4... so all those that aren't accepting either 1. Are in the middle of something, so BS isn't worth it atm or 2. They logged their toons off in Queue and can't accept anyway.

Which is exactly why I have the decency to run back to BS hub and remove myself from queue before logging off. Crappy work around for poor game mechanics though, stuff like that shoud automatically happen just by logging out.
