    Auto Squad? What? I'd have to be very drunk to risk using that **** lol.

    At the new packs and fashion: **** off.
    I'm so sick of Fashion being in packs >_>.

    I totally agree. The whole Fashion only coming from a pack thing needs to stop. Makes the fashion virtually untouchable for the normal players. b:sad

    It was on for once, and I got automatically sent into a squad...randomly. Then I just left.b:chuckle

    Turned it off and probably won't use it because it would be a hassle to kick people if they aren't the right level or geared.b:shutup

    Will there be a manual patch for this anywhere?

    EDIT: FYI at the above posters: It's referring to the instance matching located on the event calender, aka, the place you use to "Sign In" every day. Not the useless feature when you push "T" that randomly pairs you with people for no apparent reason at all.

    EDIT 2: Thanks to the guy below.

    Fix some god damn things that matter not spelling errors... And for this we need a 4 hour maintenance? Bring back old DQ system if you are so incompetent to implement the promised new one, upgrade your ancient hardware so people don`t mass DC and lag!

    Archosaur (PvE) (pwiwest4.perfectworld.com): OFFLINE

    1. they cant fix much besides text errors, all real fixes have to be done by the CN staff
    2. yes 4 hours, probably 4 since theyre gonna try to do some hardware related things
    3. old DQ system probably flooded them with tickets because it didnt update sometimes for weeks, and it sometimes lost DQ points, so while it is BS we dont have a replacement one, it IS very reasonable the old one is gone

    I have tried to use the auto squad a few times. Nothing happened, as I expected from every other game I have ever played that had the feature.

    I don't WC pretty much ever, and never to find a squad. I just keep an eye on it while doing my thing and if someone I know is making a squad for what I want I usually get right in.

    I don't know how people manage to get non random squads, as I can't get my friends to do anything at the same time lol.

    Maybe for the auto squadding, you could instead, implement something that lists who wants to run in what instance.

    Example:

    Frostcovered City:
    Player A (HP/MP Class)
    Player B (HP/MP Class)
    Player C (HP/MP Class)

    Full War Song:
    Player D (HP/MP Class)
    Player E (HP/MP Class)
    Player F (HP/MP Class)

    The (HP/MP Class) depicts pretty much the same as one would see when mousing over another person in squad on the left hand side when squadded.

    4 hours of maintenance seems rather long just to fix some 'spacing' in some skill trees and therefor a pretty much useless patch imo...

    I use the perfect matchmaker often...
    anytime I'm bored with nothing to do, I'll use the perfect matchmaker to find a friend for the day. I'll help witha lower levels quests, or run FC with a rnadom player.
    I'ts nice to be able to see class and level of the player and a selection to choose from.
    It might be the best at compatibility ratings (judging off of zodiac sign and a few hobbies) but it works well for a "quick squad" before SOT, or WS!

    Well imo its ok for ppl that just start, but to be honest pms or world chat for making squads is better, and random squads is god, ppl that say it isnt is weird, think about 90% of PWI we didnt know eachother and by random sqauding we meet new ppl. another thing LOL, skill come to West PK show skill otherwise just about any class with tt90 + can tank or do a BH, aint nothing unless u cant fight a player...

    No, I don't use it. People need to communicate before forming parties. We need to know the level and class of a prospective squad member beforehand, and in certain cases, their experience level and gear. Also it has the possibility of causing problems. You're waiting for an invite from a faction member or friend, then a random squad party knock comes along and you join because you thought it was the one you were waiting for.

    Excellent points. I don't use it, either, for essentially those reasons. I understand the good intentions of the idea, though.
