If you consider punishing yourself "beautiful" then shure.

Ummm and an unfinished butchered hero engine. Blame EA. They were told from the start that it was unfinished.

Worst part is we are punished because of this decision. Love this game but it could be so much more. Like trying to make a Ferrari with Lawn mower parts. (No car expert but I am assuming that's pretty damn difficult)

I could get behind mowing my lawn with a Ferrari. Take that John Deer!

How's that 100vs100 in SWtOR coming along, EAware?
I never understood why people seem to think RvR is a good thing. I'm sorry but PvP where the winner is the person that spams the most AoEs is nothing but a sorry excuse for real PvP.

Could have been possible though, making ferrari with lawnmower parts, lamborgini finds its origin in tractors

A better analogy would be "Expect a lawnmover to perform as well as a ferrari."

In truth, PvP as a sustainable gaming format is highly overrated. MMOs in particular really have no need to waste time and resources towards that gameplay style since it only caters to a very small percentage of the gaming community. Leave PvP to the genre more suited for it - MOBAs.

Yes, Planetside has a lot of people in a single battle. That's kind of what Planetside was designed to do.... Putting 1,158 players in a battle was not what SWTOR was designed to do.... not even close. I don't see how this is relevant to SWTOR at all....

It's like comparing Star Fox to SWTOR based on the quality of their tunnel space content, or Minecraft to SWTOR based on the quality of their home building system, or SWTOR to Planestide based on their amount of voice acting.

All great games, but comparing them in any of these ways makes no sense, because your comparing little side activities of one game to one of the main selling points of another.

And the point of this is what exactly, smack talking about the game?

SWTOR was NEVER designed for PvP from the ground up at all. Stop hoping for 100v100 open world insane fights that work flawlessly at 50 fps while you see Jedi and Sith flipping everywhere, Ships bombarding where you are together with armored vehicle transports dropping off more troops to help either side.

It's not going to happen
