What kind of person pays for a 6 month sub on a game tehy do not know is any good? The kind of person who is so worked up about a game that they will be disappointed no matter what is released.

I'm still playing because the things that Bioware have communicated about PvP are excited, we'll see what happens after 1.2 though.

Not really I paid for 3 months of RIft for the monthly savings and figuring it would take me that long to hit endgame (didnt take near that).
If the game is buggy, or they start devalueing the time you put in to attain your gear before adding anything substancial in return, subscribers get upset.

What is your excuse?
Guild Wars 2 and Dominus are not out yet. I do not enjoy WoW arenas. Guild does not want to go back to DAoC or WAR. Guild is still playing the game. Fights are fun. Bugs and RNG loot just annoy me.

All I can say is ... a good guild. Seriously I think that's the onyl thing shielding me from all the shenanigans going on.

I am a republic, and believe it or not I have a 80%-85% winning rate in WZ. Our guild has a lot of good pvpers and we play often. We hold premade every night and have fun. We have no BM in our guild yet but probably gonna have quite a few in a week or so since a lot are floating around the 50ish right now. The reason is we don't endorse valor farming on illum. FYI, it's not like we're going annal or gkick/look down on those who do (since of course there are pepople in our guild trade kill), we just don't do it as a whole, at least among the top players.

The thing is it just makes it all the sweeter. There are so few BM on republic side that I think we know the name of all the current republic BMs, and now aday you'll be running into at least 3 Imp BMs per WZ. Still, we kick their arse BM or not, and it's satisfying. My guild is quite hated on the IMP side for all the arse kicking and trolling we do to the other side in WZ. Like when our premade ran into a BMs premade by two of the top Imp guilds and stormed them to the ground (we have no BMs) and then trolling them near the end game, that's some guilty pleasure right there. Sometime we go a bit farther after pushing the 2 doors on VS quickly to ensure our win (defending first), we don't bring down the barrier and just gather on the other side and /dance with holodancer/bumpbox/trooper scanner ...etc... while IMP /spit and taunt us on the other side, hilarious.


So yeah, I played an underdog in WoW for 2 years and I felt every bit of pain there, undergeared, outnumbers ...etc... Honestly TOR seemed to head that way and I would have quited after the first month if not for the guild. The bonus is while we have hardcore skill, we take it pretty easily. No talk about "bad" (at least within the guild ) or min/max analing, we just know what we have to do and have fun. Oh, and we try hardest with every fiber of our being to make the Imp mad

If you neglect the pvp centric player base, which are chomping at the bit for a new dynamic pvp MMO, you will fall into mediocrity.

So go ahead, throw PvP on the back-burner, and watch your numbered dwindle. SWTOR spent over 250 million on this game and this is the pvp we get?

Nothing about it is dynamic, nothing about it is challenging for a solo player OR a guild, it was an afterthought from day one.

The funny thing is all you PvE whores who love all the attention you get cost the game devs a ******** more time and resources to appease, whereas PvPers can be happy with barely any new content for many months if the game just took the time to make it fun / challenging, non-repetitive, and grindless.

The greatest trick MMO Devs have played on PvPers is making them believe gear has the majority of purpose for PvP.
