That's not the subject.

Arguing over something that will be a non-issue in another patch, makes no sense. Then again, doing warzones since this latest patch, also makes no sense. Farming valor when its being made effectively useless, is exactly that, useless.

The devs keep stating with every moronic change to pvp, that "it was never their original intent". Great. So what the **** was the original intent? Can we have a peek behind the curtain here? So far every change instituted for pvp has been a failure on a massive scale.

I've del'd pretty much all chars now. I logged in today, played two warzones, then logged. I think if these ******es want to keep anyone subscribing, they should stop telling us all the **** in this game was never "original intent", and start implementing (as a whole, and not a stop gap measure) what they intend to have in the game.

Alot of fanbois and idiots keep saying "the game is new, it'll get better". Well, I can't keep paying for a game when the devs keep adding in **** thats only half implemented, not what they intend, just to have them rip it back out and completely change its function.

E-sport pvp? Are you *********** kidding me? They can't fix the pvp that they have in the game now. I'm not sure what ******e came up this idea, but when you can't fix what you got, you don't start dreaming and reaching for *********** stars.

This game was a complete waste of my money, plus time card. A complete waste of a MASSIVE budget (still *********** wondering where all the money went)...voice acting? Can you get a refund on that? I hope you kept your receipt, because the voice acting is nothing special, and only serves to help people abuse the **** out of their space bar.

My sub runs out befor the "mythical unicorn" 1.2 patch comes in, I'm afraid I will not be here to see it. I hope it makes everyones hopes and dreams come true, i'm pretty sure it won't, but i'm sure they're be another patch that you can reach for afterward, that will be the next game saver.

Enjoy.

That's why to save money, future voice overs will be done by a homeless guy they found outside the studio who can do a really good sean connery impression.

Everyone saying they like this change just likes the fact it cut their grind time drastically.

It does nothing to encourage a team to fully participate and try to win. All you have to do is get the 4 medals and you are making as much as you would if you were a top player on the winning side before the change.

That is called encouraging laziness because you get the same reward for far LESS participation.

It's laughable to call this change in any way shape or form good for the life of PVP.

It's amazingly awesome for people that just want the gear though. Unfortunately that is the WRONG direction.

But on the plus side, Huttball goes a lot quicker when players play the game instead of running around farming medals.

The obvious solution is an a big additional commendation boost for winning. Say, double what you get when you lose?

Hesitant to say all is well just yet, but the few matches I've played on my sorc were all close games where everyone tried to the last second, except for one Civil War where my team had clearly been eating lead paint chips, didn't do what the team leader asked, and left our only node undefended for no reason at all. Otherwise, great changes so far. Good, close games.

The only people upset by this are the medal farmers that could care less about the win.

I just with I could get these rewards on Ilum as I burn out on WZ's quickly.
