Shouldn't 50 Brackets been released this patch?

Wasn't a content patch, just bug fixes.

Another guy with some solid points for a change. I always felt it was better to pvp lvl20 in lvl20 gear than lvl30 in lvl20 gear. I thought I was more competitive lvl40 in lvl40 gear than at lvl50 still on those lvl40 gear (Yes, I went from lvl40 gear straight to champion gear, and never had any problems pvp'in in that lvl40 gear much. Now, maybe there are more lvl50 with imba gear I dunno I can't say about the situation at the moment.). But this is exactly the point. After they implement the level50 bracket. Those that didn't pvp before lvl50 are gona be screwed. More than others. Since they are competing against gear you can't just craft or buy with 1000 credits.

There wasn't a patch.... so there's no telling what they are going to implement tonight/tomorrow I don't understand how after 2 pages no one realized the patch was delayed....

There was a patch today dude.
Servers went down @ 9:30am CET for a patch.

You guys are so focused on gear you miss all the other things 50 have compared to a lvl 10. Just take few seconds to actually think: you get all your talent points and all the extra skills. A lvl 10 (well, pretty much all the way to 20-30) gets only 1-2 skills that do damage and some filler skill, that he does when out of energy/what not. You have no procs no crazy things like +100% crit chance on skills. heck, ever tried playing sith warrior? you don't get your stun till mid 20 and even than its channeling. You don't have any knock backs at all and your main damage skill relies on your target to stay in one place for 3 seconds, while it channels.

You can simply destroy anyone 10 or more levels below you when you are getting that top tier talents with ridiculous procs and extra effects. Oh look, I got a skill that gives me 100% armor penetration for 6 seconds every 15 seconds, where is your life now?

This is exactly why all games do the bracket system and this is why no bolster buff will ever fix it.

And let me point out that I'm not saying a lvl 15 should be able to kill a lvl 40, that would of been ridiculous. All I want is some kind of even play field. I don't care if I'll have to wait 30 mins to queue, what's the point in instant queues if I get no enjoyment out of the games I play?

Thank you for your well written reply, or shall i say contribution to this thread.
You summed up my feelings to a T.

What's the point rightnow to even queu if you get destroyed in 2-3 hits anyways?
Your making 0 difference vs a 50, and actually are pulling your teams average chance of winning down.

Either lowbies should not be able to pvp (which is ridiculous) or the 50's need their own bracket.

Why lowbies pvp?
Because the moment you get to your fleet you get a quest to go and pvp!

Rightnow it's more like a quest to bring the lambs to the slaughter, lol.

Personally, I am waiting for many the complainers to leave. Then the PvP forums will be a much more pleasant place to be. If you don't like the current system, feel free to post your complaints and your suggested solutions. I do not agree with a lot of the stuff I see on these forums, but there have been some good ideas and there will be more, even from the most unlikely of sources.

PvP in SWTOR is not optimal, but they are coming out with a patch soon, and I doubt that this patch is going to "fix" everything (or even fix much at all), but I see it as the first step, and the fact that they are addressing some of the problems gives me hope. I will still be here when the 4th and 5th patches come out, and I will just continue along untill it happens.

Are 50's and only 50's getting there own bracket?
What about 49's,48's even 40's etc, PvP will ramain just as bad as it is now, im sorry but this game for PvP is one of the worst ive played, it really is Rubbish with a capitol R!

PvP just winds me up in this game, just played a game, Sith had more players and were all lvl50, we were dead soon as we jumped down.

Another game saw a 50 hiding and waiting for low levels, called Lone i think, and just kept gimping the same old few low levels. Soon found out thisis all this player called Lone does.

Basically all these 50's have got free top end gear in a way, reset Pvp from scratch and have more level brackerts, if there is a open zone pvp world then thats fine but at the moment this whole PvP system should be shut down removed and a new one in place, its crap plain and simple and im gutted and wont be bothering after my free time is up.

Do something or face FTP next year.

At least for now put a quick line of code in to stop 50's entering, there just after free gear and gimping.

Since they know its soon coming its got worse ingame pvp, they knwo there time is soon coming so they are are gimping and grabbing all these easy free points before its over.

PvP in SWTOR? lol its utter rubbish.

people will always complain.
next you will want premades to be matched with premades, then gear matching as well.
you want to win every single game, and if you don't, you cry on here.
50's bracket is not going to solve anything

This wouldn't be an issue if they didn't decide to make a million servers.
