You guys set the bar too high and you'll always be disappointed.
Well, when they officially go out and state that they have a dedicated pvp-team consisting of some of the most experienced people in the world, it kinda makes it sound like a big part of the game

ITT: Several players who only find PvP interesting, but fail to respond to the point that this game was never advertised as a PvP-centric game.

Bioware DID deliver on the story, as advertised. I'm sure the PvP would be much better if they had spent as much time and money focusing on that aspect of the game as they did the voice acted story/quests, but PvP-centric MMOs have largely failed in the past.

At the end of the day, they are in this to make money, and there's more casuals, PvErs, Role Players than there are hardcore PvPers.

I, myself, enjoy the PvP in this game more than the operations, but what's keeping me around is the story (alts) and I hope the other features get better over time.

Its their own fault for rushing into level 50 and just pvping , its true this game wasnt advertise as the holy grail in pvp for mmo it was advertise for its pve elements but also with pvp options.


Is when I was playing WOW and people complained about not having new content (new raids) even tho the raids just released 3 weeks ago .Whos fault is that? the player for rushing content like a hyperactive little kid .

Its been 1 month and almost a week and I am enjoying pvp very much , why? because I am still leveling , I am still in Alderaan even though I am level 38 because of warzones , I am taking my time enjoying the stories , the space combat, the crafting , dancing in the vip lounge with random people, doing warzones ,flashpoints but I also have to work and do real life stuff so maybe you need to go out more instead of doing 8+ game sessions daily and thus reaching end game too fast.


When I get to 50 it will probably have a few more patches in and I may or may not like it but if I dont I'll just level another character and enjoy both the story and level 1-49 pvp.

The capturing of objectives requires teamwork and communication because it often ends up a mix of PvP and PvE when trying to clear fortresses owned by the opposing faction. All people do on Ilum is camp center and loot armaments. Booooring...

Ilum does need work and fast that much I think everyone can agreed on.

Just because you feel the LotRO PvP is better does not make LotRO a PvP game

In fact, it has specifically been stated that LotRO is NOT a PvP game by Turbine and the Tolkien estate

Thats what I plan to do (not WH tho). I agree Swtor was not a PvP focused game during the hype around launch, but Warzone PvP and open world PvP was advertised otherwise I wouldnt be here. Why are you so bothered about people quitting because the PvP isnt what they expected? If you enjoy the game stick with it, I would if I came here for PvE.
