    I've never had problems getting a match as an Ork player. Ever. Except for maybe 4 Am in the morning on a weekday.

    Come to think of it I've had even less of a problem getting a match on LSM.

    However, I am in favor of LSM vs LSM. I would have no problems with being a Dark Angel and purging yiff heresy with my chainsword.
  2. Anuvva' dumb idea, have account based rewrds er sumfin'. Such as rewards when ye get characta's o' cartain factions ta' cartain ranks

    Based on yer characta's rank parhaps characta's o' th' uvva' factions can get sum goodies
    So if'n ye get a rank 6 Space Marine mayhaps ye can get sum cosmetics fer Orks, Chaos, and Eldar
    Ye got a rank 6 Ork ye get sum cosmetics fer Space Marines, Chaos, and Eldar
    Rank 6 Chaos Marine? Get sum cosmetics fer Orks, Space Marines, and Eldar
    Eldar at Rank 6? Have sum cosmetic goodies fer Orks, Space Marines, and Chaos

    Could have grizzly trophies and wot not. A banna' wit' a helmet/head from one o' dem opposin' factions on it. Cosmetic altarnates ta' wargear and wot 'ave, loted wargear and weapons. A bonus ta' da uvva' factions fer rankin' up diffarant ones. Ye'd only get da fancy cosmetics while playin' as da uvva' faction, and playin' dem uvva' factions would get ye fancy cosmetics fer da one ye loik

    Incentives to play other factions only make those factions happier, they don't actually get SMs to reroll to other factions. They want to play their souped up power armored baby. Queue times and imbalances be damned. If eldar were the overpopped faction, I would still play eldar.

    Space marines have over 50% of all players pop, and that's not changing. We should be thinking of ideas that don't try to make players change (because they don't want to).

    Here's my idea:
    1) Free2waaagh for orks. Slugga and shoota classes are free.
    2) Orks can team up with either chaos or eldars while fighting SMs. (I can't really see eldar ever teaming up with chaos)

    This could really even things out I think. I'm still not entirely sold on the free2play aspect of it though.

  4. The only way this game is really going to survive is if they machine gun the content out. Problem is that isnt going to happen as all of these things need to be tested extensively. Thats just me though maybe something else might work.

    Well i have this unpopular opinion... Maybe Devs could... Fix other reces? No one want to play race that is full of bugs or straight nerfed to the ground. If Race is not fun to play they it need changes.

    PS: Playing Orks atm is straight up depressing.

    And that screen from pug match is supposed to prove anything? Do we still play Orks? Yes. Do we still win? Sometime. Do we have fun doing it? Not really.

    Last night i played a bit of Chaos and it is ridiculous how easy it is from rank 1. Force/Power swords are plain stupidly fast, Raptor Jetpack is way more responsive then Orkish. And that's just rank 1.

    Orks have no responce to other races. No reliable AV solutions, no viable Power weapons. We had Elecrified Axe Choppa and Klaw which both got huge nerfs last patch. Not Fixes but nerfs. They didn't fix Strong attack on Axe, They made it slower all togather. All viable orkish melee weapons will break against Power weapons and guess what all melee from other races use.

    But we still win. We spam rokkit launchas and hope it won't miss. And it only works because we don't care for friendly fire. If we can blow up 1 enemy and 2 our boyz it's still a win.

    I just wander what will be nerfed next patch...
