this is the right way to do it to show that their system is annoying as hell. (apparently they don't play the game as we do )

Approved.

But be careful, you only get 12 paychecks and if you get one you've already cashed you are **** out of luck!

Rather than be paid at a steady, hourly rate or a fixed salary, at the end of every day, you are given a nice Bioware fanny pack. When you open it, there's a 1 and 10 chance your paycheck is in there. If it's not there, there's 3 food stamps. Once you collect 30 of them, you can trade them in for the same paycheck a gas station attendant makes.

Does this sound like a payroll system that's going to keep you coming back to work?
Your example is extremely far off. It should be:

When you open it there's a chance you get 4 times the average pay check and if not you get 1/7th of your weekly pay. Upon opening your 7th bag you break even with where you should be at the end of the week although some people randomly got more money than you while you still got the amount you should have.

"
Most pvpers don't give a crap about the stats on the armor... or armor at all... they just want to be able to be on a level playing field in PvP. Bioware chose to put mega stats on the high-end PvP armor, along with a COMPLETELY ARBITRARY stat that gives you a huge advantage if you have it. We just want that, the playing field leveled, and to not have to get our boottocks kicked repeatedly by those who got there first and grinded their way first, and in some case exploited their way first, just so they can defeat others repeatedly because of the gear differential.

Personally, I think each class should find themselve magically teleported into a suit of armor suitable for their class/spec when they zone into a warzone/open PvP zone.... no choice thats what you wear (maybe have a vanity tab for appearance). At least then stat based imbalances can be easily fixed.

PvP for awards, medals, titles, appearance items, special vehicles, spaceship mods, etc (and OMG maybe for the fun of it?!?!?!) ...... forget about PvPing for equipment."


What a god awful terrible idea. Please stop.

To say most pvpers "dont care about crap stats on gear" implies players don't care about their earned advantage over other players, through the use of the SAME SYSTEM of gearing, is straight up ridiculous. If they don't care about their advantage they simply do not like the game and what it has to offer. that's a completely different from someone who happens to like pvp and has been lucky with the RNG system.

Everyone has the same chances at the same gear, how dedicated you are to that system is up to you. Some are lucky, some are not. Take a step back and literally shut your narrow minded point of view off. The bigger picture is some jedi and some sith were ultimately stronger than others. This follows story line very well and thats pretty damn amazing for PVP TO FOLLOW STORYLINE. That's unheard of. Maybe you should appreciate it, you might have better luck getting geared. In SWTOR's case some players were luckier and got geared before you. Tough ****. It shows fairly well, just as it should. You should adapt and find someone on your team to roll with. You won'y get creamed and you can make a decent amount of commendations/wins for dailies/weeklies, to continue the lottery.

Or you could just quit.

Hahahaha I love this!
Honestly, I do like a little RNG. It makes me excited when I open the bag up to see a purple. My only issue is the fact that I can only get so many bags per week. With champion bags I'm free to grind PvP for the silly amount of commendations it takes for a bag, but I'm okay with that. It's still progression. BM bags though is only so many and then you're done.

When your play time runs out, you will no longer be able to play.
