Dev's: "We want slower killing" . . . Result = opposite

OMG you mean three players on one can finally kill a healer,,,the horror.

I dunno, maybe I just like the fast paced a lot more then most people. I prefer everything to be fast paced though. On Bacca's Blade, the PVP is almost dead during the week then dies out late night on weekends, so I guess it's a kind of give/take scenario.

Nah, just put a Mara/Sent on that healer, done.

I think maybe some of my problem is the wait to get back into the game after you die. When you die you get stuck back at the starting point for your team and you have to wait for the barrier to drop before you can get back in the match. I feel like I'm spending more time staring at the barrier than actually playing. I die so fast and then have to wait 15-20 seconds to get back into the match and then have to run over to where my team is to help. Then I die in 5 seconds and go back to waiting again. At least in FPS games you respawn immediately and usually right next to your team and are back into the action right away.

Another problem is that there is way too much CC in this game to make it so fast paced. No way someone should be getting killed in less time than 1 stun lasts. You literally have zero control over your character and then you are dead. I fail to see how this is even remotely fun. I don't want to get stuck playing another twitch game where my trigger finger and ping time dictate victory. I live in Hawaii and I don't get the best ping times in video games :P

No you read that wrong, he said a healer with guard which means 2 players.

If 2-3 dps can kill a healer in less than 12 seconds with guard on them and tank mitigation in pvp was nerfed guess what: WHAT'S THE POINT OF TEAMWORK WITH A TANK AND HEALER WHEN YOU CAN DPS AND JUST FACEROLL

Well I think one of the issues that is affecting the overall state of PVP is the fact that people forget their roles and things start moving fast and they can't keep up. For instance, a tank should be guarding the healers and spamming their taunts to keep damage lower on everyone else, while DPS should be bashing the hell out of people and sending the other DPS away from the healers.

Just from a tactical standpoint, you can make things slow enough to kill by putting your healers behind ranged DPS, Tanks next to the healers, and melee DPS in the very front, yet people don't understand it and run around like chickens with their heads cut off. You can catch a Melee DPS in the air with a stun, then someone else launches him away.

People are complaining about Marauders/Sentinels but they never mention the fact that a Tank, yes....a TANK, that should be absorbing damage and basically distracting other people, puts out over 500k damage with a ton of protection points, yet people complain about DPS classes.

The way I see it, no matter what Bioware does, people will still complain, so maybe they should include a voting system and let the players vote on changes? That way if things change people have no right to complain.

What are your team's dps doing? When it takes 3 dps to kill 1 healer, your team dps could have killed all 3 dps that have no healer, plus CC, etc.

Also why should dps require tactics and coordination of dpsers when a healer can just stare at raid panel and spam heal on whoever has low health? The most tactics a healer would deploy is probably to
fake a heal to avoid interrupt his big heal, or a tank swaps guard and taunt.
