Yes. Worst PvP experience I've had in an MMO.

IM actually surprised at how i find this games pvp enjoyable. Everything else to do at 50 is boring, but somehow the pvp is fun.

Of course the lack of more than 3 battlegrounds makes it kind of repetitive.

If they add more battlegrounds and maybe flesh out ilum or ilum-like planets and slowly convert this into a pvp mmo it would be really good, because as said, the class dynamics are kind of fun. I think its because everything is mirrored

No, not by any large degree.

Anyone who thinks this is bad PVP has obviously never played Age of Conan. LOL Conqueror with 15k health oneshotting all the 5k health classes.

I actually love the PVP in this game. PVE is boring, but PVP is awesome (besides the large gear difference from exploits). Huttball especially is the first innovative battleground I've seen in ages.

Just a couple, out of the ones ive played anyway. AoC was better, DAoC is best but old.
Lol, you're funny. Wow pvp, in tbc at least was amazing, with fluid movement and unique animations that can quickly be distinguished. And WAR had some of the best pvp in any mmo, certainly the best for lower levels. Problem in war was the endgame wasn't great.

Aion was worse.

I would like pvp much more if they would just get rid of pulls in huttball. It's an interesting dynamic at first, but it gets really, really old.

I don't know what happens in this game that almost every peep that post in this forums is WOW arena multiple times gladiator.

For those who don't know what this means, it means they achieved a rating superior to the 99.5 % of all wow arena players. Only the top 0.5% gets a gladiator title.

As you see, being such a low percentage, the PvP in TOR have to be epic to attract that huge ammount of wow gladiators.

Even so - sometimes - you see quite fishy stuff.

So you man are not just multiglad but freaking multiple times world rank 1 ?

S1 - S4, 2200 rating would be today like 2700 or 2800. If you was 2500 you would be one of the best players in the world.

Can you tell us your character name ? You have to be famous if that is true.

And then you outdo that ?

Much more than 2500 in S1-S4 ??????

You know that's not possible, right ? World rank one was 2520 or so ... I know for sure Reckoning EU #1 was 2494 (WotF).

Even today with the huge inflation in rating you would be say ... world 50 ??

It's very nice to play with such a great PvPers as you are guys.

This probes beyond doubt that SW:TOR PvP rocks as the best WoW arena players of all times are playing here with us. Kudos BW.

The actual pvp/fighting portions of the game are quite fun.

The gear setup, ilum being the worst zone ever (and having to go there for dailies) and a bunch of other things make the overall experience a letdown.

Its a shame because if the game was just WZ's and commendations it would be awesome.

Not sure if trolling. First of all, 2s doesn't even matter. Second, If you're referring to RMP being rank 1 every season, check the ladder. RMP isn't even in the top 5 right now on BG9. WoW's PvP system is MUCH better than this game's terrible PvP system which rewards time played rather than skill. This game is broken anyways.

PvP is really good in this game, if they would link servers for wz's it would. Be even better
Really? A 99% protest, but only a couple hundred people show up? Maybe they should be the .0001%
