Probably because the game is bleeding and mostly bads who like the IP or pve are left. I can't bring myself to log in more than a couple of times a week just because the pvp is so one sided (pubs winning). Granted I only play with a premade... but watching pugs do 80k dmg on a sentinel isn't going to make it any more interesting.

Same on my server. We play against the same 30 or so people all the time. It is getting boring, making even me play less and less.

I commented earlier that it's because it's imps Vs imps. But ya know. I'm not sure. Haven't won a match in 2 days... (2-3 hrs playing each session). Never had a run like that before. I've even started doing PVE it's gotten that bad.

I will tell you why,alot of cheaters are getting banned.

It's funny how when you play against some imps and it is either a fair fight or win,but other times its not even close and i am not talking about Hutball,in the last three days myself and three others have reported six Imperials and four of which come from the best PvP guild over there,there is a hell alot of cheating going on,on the Imperial side,even more than i thought.

One member of my guild whom i have been queing alot with played beta for over a year and has been spotting cheats and explaining them to me,it's shocking,it really is,i would almost wager 20% of Imperial are using some form of cheat at this point.

There are a lot more Imps than repubs also, looking at dulfys server pop list by breakdown of imps vs repubs in pve and pvp or whatever waaaaaay more people love imps. My main is now a repub (I still love my 50 sorc/op..cry) but queue times are so much faster!

Sadly it also means the game will die....unless pubs want to play pubs....I have decided that since the transfers arent coming until the summer I will put my account on hold until i can get to a better server....This isnt a threat its a acknowledgement Bioware just doesnt get it...and until they balance the two factions it is just going to keep see-sawing this way until they let players choose to play what they want not what some developer or some pro-pub exec wants...good job Bioware you blew it!
lol......this is pure BS. The Imps have it way easier with the better skill sets. I have played both sides and from what I have seen the Imps mechanics are far more polished, the BH hits way harder than a commando, and the sorc has 2 more stuns than a sage. The only class that looks "mirrored" is the knight.

Funny on our server it wa the other way round. Till all what seems, the entire imp pvp pop, got fed up and also stopped playing. My server Tassaa Bareesh is currently dead. I think there is a planned boycott goin ahead for the bank hol w/e.

I assume if nowt is done in the next week, what is left of our player base will end their subs, as has been stated on the few guild still playing my server.
