I've spent hours today world PvP'ing in Ilum. It is in no way acceptable for Bioware to simply rollback to pre 1.1, and completely destroy the huge amount of time I've spent levelling valor today.

ROLLBACK THE SERVERS PLEASE!

You have invalidated the Battlemaster rank and all those who invested so much time and energy into working towards it. Just reset this, take it back to the drawing board!

Please, please rollback the servers!

That message, promising a response "shortly" was posted at 3:40pm. Granted, a resolution was not promised to come shortly, but we haven't heard anything at all since that post - I have been watching devtracker. I am really getting nervous that they lack the ability to implement the obvious solutions for some reason. Every passing moment the problem is getting worse, so why else would they be putting off their subscribers? None of this makes any sense, but I hope BW can see us through this.


Maybe they just want to get it right for once? If it takes longer to come up with a better solution then I'm all for it. That's given that it's better....

I play on the republic side on a heavy imperial server
I play the game mainly for pve.
I enjoy raiding (even the bugs!) and the new fp (L4D2 anyone?) was lots of fun.
What surprised me was that I really enjoyed the instanced pvp. Only 51 valor but that's a lot for me.

I thought ilum was a little pointless and quite often it was funny to see several imperials waiting for me to change the republic base 5 times so they could complete their dailies.

So ilum needed a change, I agree. The problem was always imbalance. Something that 1.1 has made worse. Most of those points have been raised so I will not add to them here.

Anyway good bye pvp, pvp side of ilum is now an imperial planet and soon imps should stomp all over the republic in wz's thanks to the valor imbalance.

I'll continue to play for fp's and ops but I am a little sad that part of the game has now been made imperial only.

Please fix.

Just gonna remind everyone what happened in Age of Conan when everyone maxed out level in a day or two, they got rolled back to 0. Even if they had more pvp levels.
So good luck exploiting

So after actually playing the new Ilum, its not that bad. You get great honor for kills. We had a group of 24 republic slaughtering Empire for like an hour. We never killed any of the turrets though, and honestly that's pretty hard to do if there's any sort of resistance.

I"m starting to think most people ************ are trying to go to Ilum solo instead of in a group.


And for the record, after killing people for an hour straight, I only gained like a 1.5 valor ranks. From 36 to 37.5

This portion of the idea "(Imperials and Republic can choose to be 'hired' to work for the Hutts to retain resources/capture points)" particularly will help address the faction balance issue.
So you want a bunch of fat slugs running around? that solves the problem =P

Please don't make me lose faith in your company who has given countless hours of fun and entertainment.

I don't ask for much but just a one liner of what is actually going on in Illum in respect to Valor gain, spawn camping, turret killing. I know there is a lot of misinformation and overreaction from players (Normal for MMO players) but you have the power to curb all the rumors.

That one line can also contain, What gives valor?, How to stop spawn camping?, If players have indeed gained a ton of valor in just a few hours, is that working as intended?

At least they messed up 2 days before my subscription reoccured vs 2 days afterwards.
