I will wait until it is fixed however I will make my displeasure well known through every avenue I can. I have emailed Stephen Reid multiple times now with quite a few harsh words explaining my displeasure and with respect to the guy he has replied thanking me for the criticism. Developer arrogance has caused these systems to be as shoddy as they are, also helped by the corporate idiots pushing to launch.

You really do need to look more in-depth before you paste everyone with the same brush.
Well if your looking at the game so in-depth you would've realized by now the kind of pvp it has to offer was expected a long long time ago.

I can roflstomp any lvl 10-20 by spamming Stock strike with my 50 Vanguard. Probably they are not skilled enough. What a great idea you have.

I stated earlier, once more pvp interested level 50's come about it will hopefully be much more likely on all servers to have these hundreds of player battles. But the majority of the level 50's right now are hardcore raiders who jump up and down at the thought of server first.

If anyone sits there and lets you stock strike them forever then yea they aren't to intelligent, I bet you feel really impressed with your skills though.

To the OP -

You cant blame me for having to fight geared out 50s because of a lack of brackets.

When a consular can pop out of stealth and remove half my health in one hit; that is not my fault. I cannot do anything to stop that. I cannot play better nor can my team keep me up the next 2 hits.

I love this game and right now, because of the horrid pvp system, I hate the pvp. Makes me sad.

Server firsts mean nothing as most have been achieved by now. The reason people arent fighting on Ilum is simply because its not beneficial to kill someone who is going to flip an objective so you can take it.

Its terrible game design from developers who should have known better, nothing more or less. Trying to defend that is defending incompetence and that is one thing I will never do, even though I think bioware are a great company.

- To the OP

What you say is wrong on so many levels. Swtor is a new game that has been out less than 2 weeks yet you insist it is our fault we arn't enjoying the pvp when clarely it is imbalanced and has not been tested intensively enough. No doubt you play 1 of the few classes/specs that benefit from the current situation and thats why you feel its current state is fair, balanced and viable

Changes that need to be made for PvP:

- Longer CD's on pushback or give all players an ability that lasts 3 secs that can abosrb pushback. I see so much pushback abuse in warzones and its no fun playing a class that has no utility being bounced about like a ping pong ball consistently

- level brackets for all those low lvl's QQing about lvl 50 expertise operatives/smugglers killing them so fast. I play a concealment operative and agree it can happen to low lvl players but not other lvl 50's, tanks and healers are especially hard to kill

- Give SW's/JK's some form of cc they so desperately need. I believe in some specs they dont have any, if this makes them OP then tone down there damage slightly

- operative/smuggler stealth specs escape mechanisms suck beyond imba bad. Evasion only protects against ranged and mele damaged and not the 80% of damage all players use. Please explain how I am supposed to use toxic scan to remove dots, then evasion and then cloaking screen to escape while also being bombarded with aoe's to knock me out of stealth or hit with stuns, or worse both. It requires 3-4 abilities to do all that which is why the process is a complete failure.

It would be better to make evasion remove all dot effects, stop ranged and mele dmg for 3seconds and guard from being knocked out of stealth via pushback or aoe so then we can atleast use cloaking screen to some effect. As it stands it is completely flawed

- afkers should be removed from warzones after a certain amount of time spent unactive. Its no fun for the rest of us who are actually playing

- players should be punished for leaving a warzone as an incentive to play it start to finish with full commitment. Stop them from queing for another warzone for 10 mins should they choose to leave

My only issue with warzones is that 9/10 of them seem to be Hutt Ball.

The unresponsive crap in this pvp has nothing to do with pcs, I am running a PC you probaby would consider a dream pc along with 20mb fios....it is the game. There is some strange delay with abilities, everyone knows it except you.
