Now that made ME lol. My stun breaker. OK. Yeah. That works the way it's supposed to work. I have one on a 60 second cool down. OK. That really really helps for like 200ms before the next 10 stuns come while some OP does the "Party Boy" over and over again up against me. Yah! PvP! We're all so super leet!

I have and I do and yep you guessed it. Stun wars. It's like baseball in the sense that it's stupid boring to play and even more so to watch.

And you can easily take objective with knockbacks and roots and snares and interrupts and stealth and... oh yeah skill and strategery. Remember those? No, of course you don't. You're too busy watching your resolve bar.


ALSO...

<STUN>

Oooooh now you're stunned. Now you have to sit there like a little baby while I pew pew at you. Oooooh I am so leet. Look everyone. Look how leet I am!!!!

Why are updates PvP, FP or Ops most the time? Can't they add some other updates like Guild things?

One way to help fix this issue (which is why a lot of people don't bother with PvP, Stun Wars is DULL) would be to reset the cooldown of stunbreakers on death.

Obviously the resolve system doesn't even begin to work as it is now so that needs to be addressed big time.

I like the changes. A level 12-13 character will actually have a chance no more fighting against level 49s! Of course the feeling of actually killing a level 49 character with your tiny level 12 will be gone forever as well
If no mistake have you made, yet losing you are ... a different game you should play.

It's a horrific oversight and will cause anyone who isn't already maxed out at 50 with WH+ and full augs to not be able to participate.

I do. I think the stun / resolve / snare system is good as it is. It could use a few tweaks and bugs should always be fixed the system is pretty darn good as it is.

Bubblestun is where it belongs in 2.0. Bubblestun was the only thing I thought was out of control in the 1.7 system

Nice try at attempting to preemptively to suppress voter turnout for the viewpoint you don't like. Better luck next time.

While matchmaking currently sucks, I think the combat system is pretty good with the caveats others have mentioned about a few classes being useless in rateds.

TANGENT: I do wish they use some torrent type peer to peer technology for downloading huge new releases. My download is currently so slow.

Give me one good reason why you screwed the real pvp players who have elite gear by not letting them trade it in for the lvl 55 gear? Makes zero sense.
