You are going to lose subs if u don't incentivise republic.

Tell that to the Alliance vs. Horde imbalance back in WoW.

exactly

that is one thing they can do. they should do more but at least do thig

Are you kidding me? It's been out for a month. Most people aren't a level 50. In fact, most are in their 30s-40s because not everyone is a hardcore gamer like you. For now, most people are doing WZ's which I think is their primary focus.

And as for the complaining on warzones, the only thing devs should do is make a 10-19 bracket. I'm tired of hearing republic guys whine about they cant win. I have a 33 commando and made a group with random people that were in their 30s or 40s and we ran house 10 games straight.

People on these forums are so hypocritical. They say they want a nice open world game where they can make their own decisions and not have the devs give them a game where decisions are made. Yet they look to the devs to make PvP changes that suit their play style. Make up your damn mind.

Between thelines:
"Please, BW, encourage people roll Republic so we can gank them for valor".

This game is not mainly PvP. BW wants to develop its PvP aspect but it will take a lot of time for them to figure out how to do it properly. Blizz still is struggling with PvP issues mainly because of arena.

what does this have anything to do with my post? Are you upset people want PvP in this game to be good? Sure people struggle with PvP all the time... striving to make it better is what a good MMO does.



Also it's not mainly PvE. It's mainly story. Something that PvP has too in this game.

Stop derailing my post with anti-PvP

At least Republic is not "Twilight in Space".

The "issue" as I see it, is just that "The Republic" overall is pretty well..dull.. Watching the old films "The Empire" for sure always were the impressive/imposing side So really my choice of faction have nothing to do with "gameplay", which is the dominating faction/which has the biggest-playerbase etc.

Anyway, hail to Empire & the Emperor, have fun in-game folks!

something we can not change.

what can be added is other incentives for players to play republic

I got the same feeling in regards of maturity as well until I a Republic alt on my own server which is PVE (Hidden Beks).
At first I was invited to join a friend levelling on Ahto City (PVP). In that short time I've encountered people with absolutely no patience, people who would come over and spam the chat with spoilers in caps and how much they are going to dominate, they would namecall eachother worse than what I have seen in any MMO at primetimes and at most times you couldn't even read the chat because it was Hungarian all the time and it seemed the Hungarians treated General chat like a guild chat.

Since so far I could not reproduce it on my PVE realm I found it's not got something to do with Republic itself but merely the PVP mindset. Some people found out that Republic is the underdog so they come over and spam the chat with how cool they are and how much they are going to pwnzor the other side now. They think they are the best of the best and act like they are untouchable gods. I have witnessed that kind of behaviour before in another MMO in similar circumstances that's why I decided to stick to my PVE realm now. At least there people greet, help and don't act like being a dick is just the modern form of courtesy.

Anyways, the animation bugs are which are annoying me as well. Stopped counting the times where my trooper got stuck in a firing animation without firing while I was pressing button. Or how animation and reaction are completely desync'd it's indeed worse than anything on Empire side.

The faction imbalance has killed pvp on The Maw. Other than during prime time Republic players can expect to sit in 1-2 hour queues because there's not enough players to form a team while on the imperial side there's 40 players in Huttball.
