The problem is ... "right now" they're in here whining that this game is not enough like this & that. Just while in the beta it was "This is yet another WoW clone" ... That sort of got me confused 'cos if these guys were calling this a WoW clone and now they're saying it's not enough like it ... geez, how *********** retarded are they ?!

They say "Stupid can't be fixed" ... makes me feel sorry for this community being stuck with so many of them.

We all loved the game until you hit the realisation that there's nothing to do for PvPers @ end-game

But the World events also? The random World bosses that scale to how many people are fighting it? That sh*t sounds fckn awesome It's a world event if you run into any of the opposing faction on my Server's Ilum

GW2 is the kind of game that'll come out and need lots of tweaking, lots of balancing, patches for glitches, etc. But that's easier than creating loads of new content out of thin air and THEN having to go through said stages. These guys can't even get their lame-a** Ilum right

Also, the problem is that w/ a game like GW2 they can do pretty much ANYTHING. Taking on a franchise like SW is actually pretty difficult because Lucas Arts will want you to not go crazy with new things that don't 'fit' in with the movies, etc. The creative element is severely limited. Have we really seen anything that is THAT far removed from the movies? Lightning - CHECK. Light sabres - CHECK. Jawas - CHECK.
Dude... it's Star *********** Wars, what did you expect ?!
Hello Kitty maybe ?!
A *********** nude of Sylvia Saint perhaps ?!

Yet again, stupid... it just can't be fixed.

Because I like the game. I understand the game is in its infancy and I don't expect everything under the sun at my disposal when I demand it.

I love the PVP here. And thats because the classes are actually fun to play and in my opinion well balanced. And the bolster from 1-49 is just genious! finally i can lvl during pvp and not just with 19 , 29, 39...

Hell ill stay!

I hit my first 50, didn't like how PvP was so I re-rolled. This was in December when WZ's were just 50's facerolling the 10-49 players.

When I hit my second 50 I still didn't like how PvP was, so re-rolled again. After the 50 bracket was introduced I returned to this second 50 and tried it out. I did not like it due to geared pre-mades ruling the WZ's, and Ilum not being enjoyable.

I'm now a day or two away from hitting my third 50, so I will see how it goes now that the bag change has been implemented.

There are 42 days left in my subscription, and as of right now I don't see myself going beyond that. While there is far more to do at max level in SWTOR than the majority of other MMO's at their respective launches, I'm not finding it's content that I enjoy. The game's strongest point by far is the ongoing class storyline, but once that's done there's no draw to continue playing that character. It immediately switches from story-driven to gear-centric grind.

You wait for that game like it's the 2nd coming of Jesus. The majority of the pvp whiners here have irrealistic expectations. All they can say is that DAOC, AOC, L2, etc. are the best pvp games ever, and compared to them swtor sucks. Why aren't they playing those games then?
The same player base that whines here about pvp, will do the same amount of whining on the GW2 forums when they will have lag, server crashes because of open world pvp, low fps etc.

If your playing an mmo just for pvp stick to online shooters.....simple. Mmo's cater primarily for emersive storylines, environments, exploration and interaction with other players.

Yet you didn't answer my Q. How would you feel having to play the same Flashpoint 10times in a row? With a total of only 3 to choose from?

It's all very well bad-mouthing the PvPers but what is wrong with enjoying a competitive multiplayer experience?

If this WAS only planned for PvE then that's extremely naive. Look at COD, the biggest selling gaming franchise in history. IMO, I can't stand the game, but 97% of COD players will buy that game solely for the multiplayer.

Instead of bad-mouthing the PvPers it's perhaps time to side-up with them, grit your teeth and help them argue their case because already, 1month in out of the 2mil copies sold there have been over 300K people unsubscribing. Game is what? Month and a bit old?

I'm afraid that to keep the good times rolling for PvE you NEED PvPers because we are the staggering majority, not the minority. We don't hate on you because you enjoy the story, so why hate on us because we love to rip each others pixels apart? LOL.

Even look on the YouTubes. A video putting up a Flashpoint playthrough may get a few hundred views. PvP spec advice/ PvP WZ = tens or hundreds of thousands of views. If you play through one class but wish to see another story unfold ... YouTube it. The money and longevity is in Multiplayer.

So we either work together or SWTOR will die on its a**
