I am even further aware that they joined up with bioware late in this projects life when ea bought them both out, and had lil say on what was gonna make it in the game pvp-wise, last minute, on a "fail for open world pvp" engine.

When GW2 is out this game will be uninstalled. I want PvP. I want Warzones. I want balance. I want open world siege, factional combat like DAoC. SWTOR can't deliver. GW2 will

No significant PvP is coming for the forseeable future (at least 9 months) it's safe to uninstall and enjoy other things in life

Having watched a ton of the gameplay videos while at the docs office today.... it wont. slideshows with 20 people attacking a door. Outnumbered factions being zerged over in seconds. When will people understand that words like "balance" "fairness" "skill" have no place in a conversation about "World PvP"

It will Not sure I'll really uninstall this game though, because it's still star wars and if they manage to get some good updates to PvP live, then I'll enjoy the game once in a while.
