Dead Collector: Bring out your dead!
PvP Team: Here's one.
Dead Collector: Nine pence.
Players: I'm not dead!
Dead Collector: What?
PvP Team: Nothing. Here's your nine pence.
Players: I'm not dead!
Dead Collector: Here. He says he's not dead.
PvP Team: Yes he is.
Players: I'm not!
Dead Collector: He isn't!
PvP Team: Well he will be soon, he's very ill.
Players: I'm getting better!
PvP Team: No you're not. You'll be stone dead in a moment.
Dead Collector: I can't take him like that. It's against regulations.
Players: I don't want to go on the cart.
PvP Team: Oh don't be such a baby.
I'll tell you what, then. Why don't you call me some time when you have no class?

All warfare is based on deception If his forces are united, separate them If you are far from the enemy, make him believe you are near A leader leads by example not by force

Amusingly appropriate. And the second time today this reference has come up for me. Maybe I need to hop on Netflix for a few...

I think more often than not, having the PVP Team and Players switched would be more appropriate.

It's not like GSF is poaching resources from other PvP.. it was an incremental project effort. You can argue that they should have simply put those resources into ground PvP in 2013, but they did not.. so in 2014 GSF represents no resource bleed from ground PvP.

Just like every other segment of game content in this MMO, if they see it is popular and well received.. they will continue to invest in it as they see value and proportion of effort to results. If it's wildly unpopular, then they will slowly strangle off resources from it and reallocate them somewhere else in Bioware.

People act like they had to starve the dog to feed the cat.
Huh? I don't think we're disagreeing. I was responding to the narrow point that BW could run metrics that determine that GSF was "unpolular" and nonetheless still invest in it to help make it more popular. In other words, continued investment could be just as much a reflection of genuine dedication to making GSF a meaningful part of the game as it is an indication that GSF must be a cash cow.

"They" would be the ground pvp community. A community that is rarely serviced. That community is pretty close knit on JC, and from what I know from my also massive friends list (in fact it has 1 more then Rynis's), none of them really care for GSF. It appeals to a different crowd then those that have played ground PvP for the life of the game.

Common theme in this thread: My opinion invalidates your opinion.

Honestly, whether GSF was successful or not, BW would still be pushing it because they just spent however much of EA's money putting it together. There are obviously those who enjoy it, so there is really no point in saying it's dumb since it is entirely subjective. Will I ever refer to it as PvP? No, but I've been talking about PvP in this game for 2 years in reference to warzones and then arenas (basically smaller warzones without objectives).

Can anyone who has been playing this game for at least a year honestly say they wouldn't ask someone to PvP if they were doing warzones? And how many would ask someone to PvP prior to queueing GSF? That's the reason GSF is not PvP on this forum. We've had PvP for 2 years and they added a new game mode that is fundamentally different than the original. We aren't going to change what we've been saying for this long though, so I would suggest wrapping your ahead around the intentions of a poster rather than quibbling over semantics.

Side note: The OP is so vague, you don't have any idea what they mean anyway. It could be they hate huttball, so PvP will go downhill with another map. It could be the lack of updates will kill PvP. I still have no idea, but 10/10 for getting the semantics debate started.

Bro you can't say stuff like that. It'll get taken way more serious than it should be! The massive caps that I used wasn't a dead giveaway.

But srs pics or didnt happen

And until they release the metrics to see what's more popular no one is right :O *mind explosion*...I will say that I observe far more people in ground pvp maps when I /who than space.
