I liked guild wars personally. Just create a pvp only character. Max stat gear and skills. Go pvp. Didn't matter what you wanted to play. What build. PvP is great. I agree if you don't want to do the story and only play it online you should be able to do that.

I would say that mmo's make awful pvp games, since they are not geared to the average shooter players.

They generally require you to grind for an advantage. They expect you to do the story. I'd say if you wanted to completely skip the story you should go play a shooter. This game will never feel right to you imo.
OR, quit making gear the 'only' focus to the skill-ups. DAOC had it right, gear made a difference, but they didn't have some lame PvP stat so people like me actually enjoyed dragon raids because it helped me in the PvP open world aspect.

Realm Ranks made a bigger difference Ie my guy at RR7 naked would be tougher than a guy at RR1. That's the issue, no one has figured out how to replicate Realm Ranks and make abilities a focus as opposed to just gear. Strip your guy at 50 naked and he's the same 100 hours in as he was when he was a fresh 50..does this make sense to you?

That is gist of the problem. This is WoW in space and they fubared areas WoW got right years ago. Crafting, Auction House, an expansive open world where you don't feel guided and walls don't block the explorer.

DAOC got this right in 2001 for ***s sake. Darkness Falls, dragon raids, open world pvp that was FUN and engaging and people that were even PVE carebears came out to craft and help repair walls etc

That **** is lost and the developer the rediscovers that people working together despite their playstyle is one that will truly rake it in hand over fist.

And by "PVP fixed" you mean copying WoW failed model in which lower level then maximum in bracket is just feeder? No, thanks.
And for the sake of all of us-people like you never get jobs in pvp development anymore.

No, we are not going to sit in the fleet and talk in general. No, I will not kill mobs for gear. No, I will not use my useless crew skills to pass the time.

In the end, I have seen more than my fair share of MMOs in my life. And this is one of them that is making claims that they can produce any aspect of the game at a high quality. No lag, button press lag, fps lag, poor pvp currency system to acquire gear. They could have just came out and said that pvp was not going to be a major aspect of the game and people would have accepted this. There are plenty of MMOs that have said they were PVEcentric at creation and I am fine with that walking into a new mmo game.

But don't make promises you can't keep. This isn't any different from when you buy a car and it is not performing as advertised a couple weeks/months after you buy it and you find out that the business that sold it to you satisfied a minor part of that claim. I know people will say "Well WoW has had it's issues". Yes I will agree with that, but every part of WoW has been critiqued to a high quality and blizzard themselves have worked with the customer base to solve the issues. There is no crazy *********** FPS lag like here, the systems that didn't work were revamped in favor of the player.

Lastly, I should have known better. If these morons couldn't get Warhammer to work correctly with the same exact issues over a very long period of time. FPS lag in sieges, Button press lag in pvp and sieges. Low FPS no matter what the system specs. What was I thinking putting my faith in them AGAIN.
This

I would of thought that they would of at lest learnt from their previous mistakes.

I play on a standard pop server and the lvl 50 PvP bracket is empty (about a 4 hour queue time and then the match ends prematurely) which leaves me little else to do with that character other than piss about on ilum for the PvP dailys with the other 2-3 imps there. Coupled with me playing a Jedi guardian with very little in the way of PvP gear and no solid way of obtaining it the game has become very stale.

PvP is great and fun, an ya'll hating on it are whiners, never seen better pvp in a game at launch. Have you? what game? Did it have more than 3 instances at launch? I know warhammer online was pvp focused and it was the same pvp feel wise.

No one lied to you. PvP is here it works ok. room to improve sure. They have stated they will add more WZ, an fix ilum.

How about instead of whining and complaining you tell the dev's what you'd like to see in pvp?

Whining about not liking something with no input on improvements is like masterbating in front of people, we're all embarrassed for you.

I would like to see more warzones added. Open world PVP be given thoughtful objectives and rewards.

I would also like to see PVE gear as good as PVP gear, the removal of expertise, a touch of class balancing to improve the melee classes a bit.

I would also like to see more PVE content added, I expect they will, they say they will.

haters gonna hate, whiners gonna whine, thinkers will think and take their time.

GW2 will probably be an awesome pvp game. As much as I like the levling content in this game, I am pretty sure I will jump ship in favor of GW2 unless Bioware can improve the pvp. If they do improve the pvp, then I will probably play both games

Space combat...... ROFL that gave me a good laugh, Hardmodes are to easy, operations are to easy, ilum dailies are halfassed, crafting is a joke, Story does not matter in end game, infact its pointless in a MMO.

Overall your post is invalid.

MMO RPG, RPG stands for roleplaying game... no story no roleplay... just cause you are a min max kiddy doesn't mean story is pointless lol. Why would you even buy a game primarily touted as story driven if you don't even like story? lol some people...

So the jist of it all is Bioware included pvp, and hired guys who should have been good at it. Thus making you all believe (your choice) that it was paramount in this game. Now you are complaining and trying to refocus the devs on your pet issue which while included isn't and never was ment to be the focus of the game.

Please quit, please leave the forum, please quit whining without suggestions for improvement. Just saying 'it's broken" is silly... It's not I pvp everyday and have fun.
