On a 1-10 scale, how happy are you with PvP?

Maps: 7/10

The maps seem to be fair, they dont lag (on my pc). What annoys me tho is the respawn timer. To sit behind a wall is just wrong. Especially if you never died before but then must wait forever to get in again.

Game mode: 8/10

I think its a lot of fun to play Hutball, to play a Unreal like map with trying to achive the data or to bomb a ship down. What I miss is somekind of CTF map, like Warsong at wow and a map where you must kill a boss, like vanilla alterac valley.

balance: 4/10

My main concern is, that lvl 50 guilds dominate pvp. I dont see why 4 or more people from the same guild can be matched up against solo queue´s. This just doesnt sound right. Also the massive amount of CC is really annoying. The problem is that you cant get out of it in time, you just die in it - this was a lot better at vanilla wow for instance.

There you could always counter someone, I miss that ability here. What I also find annoying is, that sometimes I give someone 3 CC´s and he keeps running away still. I noticed this with classes who got guns, but also casters seem to be immun from time to time? I am not sure why this is the case, is it a bug or do some classes have an ability to get immun for a longer time?
Whatever it is, it should not work like that. People should be able to do something to prevent CC, but they should not just hit 1 button and then be immun for 10 seconds.

mechanics: 6/10

I got taunt, but its not working. I want to protect people better in pvp. Guard change is great in 1.1 - but my taunt should still work soon. I also think that tanks die a bit too fast at pvp, the damage is just too big. But I will monitor this a bit further, maybe its a gear issue.

endgame: 5/10

Right now there is the valor rank. I like to gain valor, but so far it has no real influence. Maybe it is in the game and I am just too low, but so far I did not get a new title out of it. No new gear out of it, nothing at all.
The "badges" that we get, are a bit too much of a grind. Id prefer to be able to buy any gear I want, after I got a specific rank. Vanilla wow was ace there, you got rank 11 - evoila a mount. You got rank 13 evoila armor etc.
I dont like to grind badges for gear, I hated it at wow tbc + and I still hate it. It feels wrong, if I got a rank I should be eligible to buy stuff - not after losing a specific amount of games, just because I got enough badges now.

I also miss crafting in pvp. Where are the pvp recipts? So far I didnt see any, also something like that should be available after reaching a specific rank.


Conclusion: 7/10

As you see I am a big fan of vanilla wow until xrealms came. For me the best MMO pvp of the last years, I would love to see such a system here - but with fixing the "time issue", "premade issue".

6/10 right now ability delay and warzone performance ( Low FPS) are keeping me from enjoying it as much as i want to *it's pretty fun when the only WZ you can kinda play in is huttball..* since this is a MMO i expect alot of changes and fixs is in the future so till then this is staying at a 6.

2/10

- random bags... cmon
- i dont get credited for my wins half the time
- fix abilities lag ffs
- 50s Qed with 10s ? wt f?
- ilum zzz
- imba classes
- wz boring as hell because of above

So far I am giving it an 8/10. It is a blast. I love all of the WZ's except for Voidstar. Huttball is hilariously amazing. It'll be getting a perfect score from me when all of the updates come out, such as: 50 brackets, individual WZ queues, etc. I currently play as a 50 JK Guardian, and have no problem taking anyone out 1v1. Also, being able to hold 4 people+ from taking an objective is always entertaining. Healers can be tough, and same with IA ops, but I hear a lot of QQ on them anyways. I guess the fact that I can beat them is a plus. As long as you play with skilled players it is fun. I have won a game vs. 3 healers with only 3 different dps classes. So needing variety isn't causing any problems. Also able to beat teams like that as well. To me, it just boils down to playing with people good at pvp. Which, with the 50 brackets, it will be more entertaining. I do dislike joining a match, noticing I am against all 50's, being the only 50 on my team, and having 5 lvl 10's on my team. They rarely stand a chance. As far as rewards go, the bags are a decent way of getting gear. Granted I have hardly gotten anything besides the commendations, I feel the payoff is far greater. I don't think people realize how easy it is to get the bags. Not to mention you are getting amazing gear from them. All in all, it is a work in progress. But that's the thing, it is still being worked on. I don't feel anyone should really complain. Great Job BWA! Keep it up!

7/10

The game is still quite young and has alot to improve but so far, I'm not too disappointed...
There's a few things ... here & there that are bugging me but I am sure these will either get fixed or nerf in good time.

Same here, ability delay and low fps in warzones. Weird cause if I'm on the Republic or Imperial Fleet I'll get 60 fps with tons of people around. Get into a warzone and boom it drops to less than half.

4/10 here.

2/10

dont even care for the new ilum stuff in 1.1

looking forward to spending $60 bucks on next mmo over and over and over and....

2/10

By far the most imbalanced PvP I have experienced among swtor, rift and wow. I thought r8 players were too op in rift but at least you were up against a similar level :P. PvP is completely unplayable for the first half of a character. I'm a sith jugg and I think I picked the the most usless class in the game right now.

Before geared 50s entered the scene: 8/10 (only 8 because empire just dominates on Shien and we're playing republic there)

After geared 50s entered the scene: -192678903275896/10. PVP in this game is absolutely worthless unless you're 50 now.

From the company that INVENTED tiered battlegrounds, I expect more. This is really awfully implemented.

7/10 take out the bugs 8/10, fix all the balance issues 9/10.
