Additionally, wildstar looks amazing - CANT WAIT

I've got an idea. let 2 ****** people in a group queue for ranked?

This is short, sweet, and to the point. I've been playing mmorpg's for 17 years starting with MUD's (gemstone III, dragonrealms), onto more modern traditional ones such as asheron's call, anarchy online, dark age of camelot, release date WoW, etc. My one point and observation of activity as a result of the PVP QUEUES BEING DOWN. Is simply this, HOW awesome is the PvP right now on Oricon? YES, WORLD PVP IN SWTOR? It is amazing to see true Hero vs Enemy server world pvp, everyone is having an awesome time. Bioware abandoned developement of world server pvp long ago by not pushing rewards on Ilum, why? They thought people wanted to PvE. Not True Please disney, go watch the PvP on Oricon right now and tell me you didn't make a huge mistake by not pushing this type of play, not to mention the lack of other WZs, but that is for another day. Every person who has posted on this pvp forum only subs for it, get it in your minds for your next attempt at an mmo after Star Wars VII VIII and IX make $100,000,000,000 and need an outlet to spend it on, which is you, the mmo of the future, Cheers to Star Wars: The New Republic PLEASE EMPHASIZE PVP 100 times more than you did with the old republic. period. this is the reason mmo's attract so many people. It is not the pve (yes the gear is part of it, gear is not synonemus with pve.)

In conclusion, it simply depends on which server you're on. In my guild we do have one member that has 8 (level 55s) -- 4 imps, 4 pubs -- He tends to play on the side that is pulling better players that day. If it is that bad for your side you can always do this.. I personally like a challange though (at least when I have 3+ other guildies to join me.) When it comes to solo queing im not going to deal with a buncha scrubs if we are just getting stomped. I simply log off and go play MWO untill some guildies pop on.

Truely sad as I think you are absolutely right....Do they not realize that PvP is the lifeblood of Swtor...The life of their aspirations to continue developement are over within 3 months if they don't keep us around.

Pro tip -- Make and sell augment mk-9 kits, buy weekly warzone passes, never pay to play again.

Sounds like a glitch...My bro used to end up on the republic fleet after every warzone ended regardless of where he was in the galaxy.

On - The Bastion - The balance has shifted quite often...Prior to 2.0 republicans were simply dominating warzones...Since 2.0 my favorite matches are when I get to play Pub v Pub -- I know it is going to be significantly easier as I get to destroy these scrubs that my guild and I are carrying night after night... If I had to take a guess though, naturally the imperial side is going to be ruthless, they will show no mercy, the imp side appeals to older players imo -- While the republic side seems to have more carebears. We all know that Vadar > (luke)Skywalker any day of the week. EDIT: On a side note I truely believe overall that Pubs actually have a distinct advantage over imps when it comes to pvp -- The visual effects from Imp abilites are much more noticable and exagerated when compared to the republic conterpart abilites. apparently this doesn't help us though, lol.

My confession -- I try my hardest to win every warzone I play and NEVER leave a warzone unless I join some half way over partial gang you know what.

I'm a pure dps sentinel -- But IMO the best use of force barrier at this point is poping it early on, like right when you start getting focused -- Or simply delaying a node cap. EDIT: However, multiple sages/sorcs on comms coordinating their barriers can be quite devestating to the progress of the enemy team.

Agreed, (and a lot of people unsubbing just like me)...Note upcoming is 2.2 (at least for content release)

What are ya'll expecting out of patch 2.2? I personally have unsubbed and once my time runs out here in 2-3 weeks I'm just going to be using weekly warzone passes. I will not be resubbing untill substantial PvP content is added such as -- --Cross server queuing (at least for ranked teams) --4 man + 4man ranked queuing (at least to get more people playing it) --At THE VERY LEAST a new warzone (would like to see 2 or 3 personally) --maybe a 5 v 5 style arena PvP battle with no respawning --An update to one of the many unpopulated zones to make it a World PvP area with incentive to play in it --Maybe a new season of ranked warzones (seriously, still in pre-season 1 ????) Note: I'm not even going to touch bolster right now -- But I know we all agree this was really pointless for level 55's, If they didn't want a 'gear gap' all they needed to do was make a recruit set just below partisan. --My idea for a warzone would simply be something like a 20 - 30 man alterac valley style warzone that is potentially 30 minutes - 2 hours long.. Through in some PvE aspects such as destroying passes/killing bosses as a team progresses through the map yet make it PvP oriented such as the need for having defenders trying to slow down the opposition as they progress to the final objective (maybe killing a beastly boss, or destroying the main command post). And again---I'd really like to see an arena style warzone that is something like 5 v 5 with now respawning. --I would also like to see them add NEW terrain packs for old warzones, Civil War could easily have several terrain packs added so the nodes and terrain aren't the same every single game.... Anyways, I wouldn't mind hearing what everyone else would like to see in NEW PVP CONTENT...This is not meant to be a post about class balance, gear balance, etc. Would simply like to keep the discussion about what we would all like to see in upcoming patches that we all hope will add pvp content. P.S. In my personal opinion the PvPers in SWTOR are the ones footing the bill (I.E. paying for the continued flawless development of SWTOR)...There are significantly more people focusing on player vs. player than there are trying to do scum and villany (at least from what I see.)

There are many reasons TO get conqueror for warzone PvP. However, I will point out that if you are doing any kind of world PvP (I love ganking 55s personally) then it is definately worth upgrading to...I smash 55s without expertise for over 12k in WPvP.

How about fixing the NO LOADING SCREEN OR GAME OPENING AFTER HITTING PLAY.... THIS IS THE MAIN THING PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING. #biowarefailsagain
