I am enjoying the game, and I have fun PVPing with my friends. Maybe the shadowlands server is different than yours, we have solid players on both sides Empire and Republic. We usually have action going on in Ilumn 2-3 times a day(5pm-midinight) with the republic outnumbering the empire occasionally or close enough to push us.

GW2 is a PVPer's wetdream really? it is an all instanced game how are true PVPers who always cry about open world PVP going to like that? Some interesting stuff to it, but not enough to make me leave here. GW2 will have a ton of bugs and prolly more with the 3xserver-vs-server fucntionality. I have always felt that a game needed a good 4-7 months to fully balance itself out PVP and PVE wise. There will always be teaks needed, but it's not like WoW was ever balanced for PVP, people jsut re-rolled the most powerfull class for patches.

Sorry, I don't cancel subs for games because I can't win every single match..

Never liked PvP in MMO's anyway, If I wanna kill people I go play CoD. If I wanna feel like I really accomplished something big I play MMO's and raid..

I think this game will loose a heck of alot of players once TERA, Diablo 3 and GW2 is out.
I think it can drop as low as 500k subs or even lower. SWToR is basicly AoC, lootsa things said then removed before release, overhyped, ignoring community, and no endgame.

Heck even my PvE friends are bored and only loggs in to do an ops a couple of times a week. Most of them have bought Kingdoms of Amalur to have something to play, or are finishing up Skyrim.

Me and a friend are trying TERA, and other friends are thinking of trying it aswell. Its not the best mmo ever, but SWToR are so boring, atleast well get something to play together.

I only logg on to do my daily pvp quests and then logg of.

I actually considered myself a PVER untill this game came out. I love the pvp in it. The objectives in the warzones are fun I enjoy healing my teammates and helping control items that need to be done. I play on average of 5 hours per day about 3 of which I am pvping. I think they did an excellent job with this game. But hey oppionions are like a** holes every one has one.

Enjoying Ilum and the warzones with my guild. We have a very competative server so the action is generally non-stop.

Great game and I really enjoy the pvp, can't wait for the new warzone.

The more i read about the open pvp system, the more it warms an old daoc players heart.
They must have some old really good DaoC player that understands how good that pvp system was.

ArenaNets 2 lead Dev's were ex Mythic employes. Mythic created DAoC. Their WvW is being done by these 2 Dev's. The whole Arenanet team speaks HUGE of DAoC and are old players as well. There is a reason that the WvWvW system looks like old DAoC.

Yeah clearly GW2 got devs that worked on DaoC and SWTOR got the Warhammer crew

Yeah? Like load screens and hilariously buggy pve content? Rift is free for the first 20 levels right now, only reason I log in day to day is the time left on my game card
That's nice, but Coop is going to hit THREE home runs.

i hate the fantasy setting with a passion but i cant ignore gw2. Wont be surprised if gw2 takes a big chunk out of tor.
Swtor needs more pvp
