- Content scaling
- RvR PvP
- PvP Ranking
- Scale and art
- Gear customisation/dye
- Simple and innovative UI
- Multiple guilds (with tons of features, as in, levels, perks, and something as simple as guild bank, lol)
- Much better, in-house engine
- Better graphics
- Music by Jeremy Soule (KOTOR, Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim etc)
- No holy trinity of Tank, Healer, DPS
- No monthly fee

There you go.

Yes. A game that promises all kinds of amazing things, I wonder if it will live up to them.


If history is any indication, no.

Sorry bud, facts are facts. If you and your guild are that geared, then you guys are hardcore people and the only way to make the game last longer for your kind would be to make it nearly impossible for the vast majority of potential players.


The company that does that, is a company that's doomed their game. The hardcore players will never be satisfied and that's for the good of the game.

I've beta tested it - many have, and so far it's living up to peeps expectations way more than TOR did. As in, still waiting for a patch that actually fixes stuff and doesn't introduce more bugs, and waiting for simple MMO features that pretty much every other MMO feature from the very start. Like a guild bank, lol.

Press is testing GW2 as we speak, you can read more about it on the 21st when the NDA is up. Or visit Youtube and check out some videos in the mean time.
I don't judge a game by how old or new it is, I judge it by what it is when it is presented to me.

Unfortunately I would have to be an idiot to roll anything republic on my server when republic side is dead. I tried rolling republic on the most republic heavy server I could find but I was turned off by the idea of leveling a new character at all wether I had played the class at all or not. Plus I don't really think any server has a good repub population that I would be happy with.
So you love spending time running around in ilum trying to find 1 rep to kill with your 12 buddies by your side? If you want to have fun join the low pop side.. You will at least have a challenge ange..

An mmo IMO should consist of a basic leveling system, with some extras for fun, end game worth doing, lots of content, change of scenery, places to go, things to collect, a social atmosphere and and jsut general stuff that doesnt involve changing duke box music.
This game has everything you listed (although slim on the little extras for fun), you just blew through it. It's not that it has no content, it just doesn't have enough content to fill the time you have.

Wow vanilla was no different, running around in circles in IF and jumping in the Lava. It took wow a long time to catch up content wise. At least we don't have to find 40 people that can meet the same schedule just to enjoy the end game content. Honestly this end game content lasted a lot longer than 4.3 with Raid Finder...

The OP asks what to do after full Battlemaster? Presumably, you enjoy PvP, so you could... PvP. What's the point of getting Battlemaster if you're not going to use the gear to PvP?

there are plenty of things BW could have added to keep this game exciting and make content take a lot longer.

pet collecting
mount collecting
faction reps
achievements

bioware do you plan to add anything to keep us playing this MMO that has such potential and is wasted on voice acting that ends at 50...?

in MMO's end game is where the game starts for a large proportion of MMO players? since i have no reason to leave the fleet or nothing atall to do? what now? theres no exotic pet mounts to collect? no misc fun stuff? no gear other than what we have?

now what is my question?

i'de also like to suggest that that the raid content you provided takes less than 2 hours to complete on hard mode for both instances and a slight bit more for nightmare could i suggest a shorter lockout?

so can you atleast give me an incentive to play this game?

anything will do?
Everything apparently
