Most of my friends are thinking the same . I decided to give ot a chance thou. The good part is that if most of hardcore pvp-ers are leaving, i will rule the regs, i will be the king of noobs )))))) It will be very funny to see ))))))))

yup I see 5.0 doing the following

1)large organized groups will control pvp
2)it will be primarily pve groups
3)crafting was is and always will be controlled by large guilds and they will gear themselves and roll the competition
4)win trading will increase not decrease
5)afk will increase..conquest points conquest points conquest points
6)as the small dwindling group of honest pvpers realize this has happened, finally it will die
7)once the organized groups have eliminated all competition, the queue pops will slow down shrink and finally stop..this time for good.
8)this will then drive the pve groups to shrink, contract and guilds will finally break.
9)once BIoware realizes what they did, they'll try to roll it back
10) it wont work and the board will close shop. Congratulations to the idiots who pissed away 200 million dollars.

I'm mostly upset by this change because it means that all of the credits used to remove PvP components from their shells and on to Adaptive armor goes to waste.

On top of that, any real money spent to unlock 'war hero' crystals in collections go to waste as well.

I'm not looking forward to booting up SWTOR after the 5.0 patch and seeing my PvP characters with zero armor and zero crystals. Do we know what the substitute for PvP components will even be? Will characters who spent real money on war hero crystals to get them unlocked be reimbursed? I doubt it, but what will we get instead?

While I appreciate that removing expertise will make the game a lot less messy, because it's Bioware (who are under EA), any players who invested in this previous game mechanic are very likely not going to get compensation for what they lose after 5.0

So, yeah :C

With no point to PVP in 5.0 I really think its going to completely kill pvp . I would give it 4 mouths. A reward system keeps players shooting for the next level weather its pleasant or not . I'll try it but i don't think there will be much reason to pvp anymore in 5.0. At least with the current system you had points to show for it..

Pity... I like the game mainly for the PVP aspect...
I don't do PVE only for the stories... Just sad they will force me to grind for gear.
The grind in WZ is fun. Each WZ is different. Hope I don't get bored as plenty of other players.

not dead...yet! on TRE, reg games are poping very fast. It continue to amaze me how Blizzard will get new subscribers from Bioware, without moving a muscle or invest a penny in marketing! Until now, one of pvp-ers biggest request was cross-server pvp. Now , we only want expertise...Bioware, are u hearing?!
