Sounds more like catastrophic than profit to me..

Yes, i belong to the category that has a job and gets slaughtered in two seconds flat whenever i join a warzone now..

At 40 with the pvp gear i can not do anything more than putting a dent into a decently farmed level 50, and if they happen to get annoyed by your puny attempts, well, you figure out what happens.

This is at 40, i dont want to think of how it feels as a fresh level 10, but if i had to give it a try i would most likely think that it felt like the next months 15 bucks could perhaps be spent on something else.
You casuals will play anyway. And hardores will leave becaus there will be nothing to do. So BioWare is right.

i made a pvp movie based on the issue described in this thread. i went into a random warzone with fraps on and i have taken those clips n made a 6 min movie of how ridiculously strong my character is compared to lowbies.

beware: my first attempt at making a movie has it's fair amount of hitches. there's a few quality probs with the video but nothing overly serious.

No need. Right after ilum / world PvP will start to bring any rewards (mercs commendations) lvl50 will vanish from warzones.

What I see day by day? Geared level 50 players in opposite team killing my team everyday. They like storm we cant do anything.
We need bracket for 50 level asap because it is not serious to play like this and I m bored with such PVP when I have no even chance to bit oppostie team.

The scaling to 50 thing works fine 1-49. You are still at a disadvantage at low levels, but you can still play and have fun. Once you throw 50s with PVP gear you completely ruin any sort of balance because they are simply untouchable.

(don't give me crap about queue times - Huttball allows same faction matches and there are plenty of 1-49s to play. The longer this single bracket nonsense goes on the less 1-49s are going to play, however)
realms that were implemented on LAUNCH day bearly have 50s right now, if would be unfair for us 50s on those new realms to have to wait hours on hours just to get a game going...

if they could get your realms that were opened up on early access without clicking it for us then i'd be all for that, but i'm sure they only got one switch for everyone...

I don't want to wait a month for enough ppl to hit 50 so I can enjoy pvp it'd ruin the game for us at 50 and all we want todo is pvp compared to people who ain't and should be leveling most of the time :P

We need brackets because higher levels players will have more health and power.
There is a buff you get to even out the differences.

The higher level players have huge advantages over lower level players through talents and abilities.
Get to higher level.

The arguments against brackets are so circular.

Indd 50 bracket is needed now! Not at some point ...... but now! 2 x 50 take the ball and walk all the way shielding/healing each other while our whole team bashing on them to no effect.

Hit 50 and stop complaining...

I am 50 and have to say with scaling it is nice "When" you have PvP gear. Low level BH and some low level healers are insane. Yesterday we pulled in a level 14 Sage because he was crit healing nonstop 12ks. Scaling can be a blessing. You also have to realize that many of these people complaining are level 20s... you dont have all your abilities so yeah it sucks but level and get the abilities. You really asking hey I want my level 12 to be competitive and on par with a high 40s to 50 player which is horrible.

You just made more points of why there SHOULD be lvl 50 bracket.


1."I am 50 and have to say with scaling it is nice "When" you have PvP gear"
2."you also have to realize that many of these people complaining are level 20s"
3."you dont have all your abilities"

3 reasons for a 50 bracket right there.

It was harmless when you would get 2-3 50s out of 5 WZs played. And the 50s where not geared yet. But now every other game we get a bunch of 50s and a Premade no less!!
A Horde of lifeless 50s in premade jumping on a 23 ball carrier ****** him in 3 sec and then spamming " huahuahuahuauh u nubs " or " L2P tbh " and "Owned" .
