This message to you idiots out there saying this game has no openworld pvp....i call BS. Man up...get a couple of ops together and go take an opposite factions spaceport. This is called denial of resource.

We had hours of fun. The sith tried to shake us from the planet, but we took them all out.

That's not too surprising as free form, ad hoc open world pvp tends to attract players who have achieved their immediate endgame goals (e.g. achieving Battlemaster).
This ^


Open World PvP is there for people, it's people that need to make it happen.

How?

People need to ask guild leaders, or schedule it to happen. As you can see by OP, open world PvP can work and can be alot of fun.

Illum is not the only planet you have to PvP at...

It would be nice if valour gains were gotten on planets other than Ilum though. Just saying. It might encourage more people to stop QQing about there being no rewards on other planets.

Speak for yourself snaf

I was usually getting 15-30 fps even with 100 people on screen hitting aoes and crap. Only time i ever lagged was at the start of large combat when both factions meet and my pc has to load everyone.

I guess the republic was tired of losing so they had to pick a fight they could win..
WPvP is the best PvP.

Zone Disruption

This refers to disrupting locations within the game so that it inhibits the play of or provides a level of disruption to other players. This can include excessive disruption of player sponsored events or gatherings, excessive use of sounds or visuals, blocking areas of the game, pulling creatures over and over so no one else may kill them, and killing specific vendors, key creatures or quest givers for no reason other than to cause disruption or ‘grief’ to others.

Harassment Policy

Our goal is to build a strong community that offers a comfortable atmosphere for all of our players. This means seeing that players have the ability to combat antisocial behavior

Harassment consists of misuse and/or abuse of game mechanics and verbal harassment with the intention of distressing and offending other players. Game mechanics allow players to interact with the world and each other. For example, the ability to block a doorway is a game mechanic. Use of game mechanics like these is by no means considered harassment in and of itself. The key to determining whether the mechanic is being misused or abused is to determine "intent." Reported incidents are not considered harassment until it is determined by the SWTOR CS that it was done to intentionally to cause distress or to offend other players.

Harassment is also any behavior that is incessant, inescapable, derogatory and directed specifically at you or your group. Before reporting, a genuine attempt to alleviate the situation should be made by leaving the area or the offending player, or asking them politely to stop. If a sincere attempt has been made to solve the problem and the offending player persists in the behavior, it should be reported.

Behavior that is always considered harassment includes derogatory and/or hateful comments that are sexual, racist, religious, or related to gender or creed.

A judgment of valid harassment can result in penalties placed on the harassing party up to and including immediate account closure, based on the severity of harassment and the player's past account history.


Player versus Player (“PvP”) activities, where available, are not exempt from this policy.

True man. For people who thinks that open pvp sucks its because they are too laizy, to look for it. they want everything easy, and right there. As they are used to.

so? its how open world pvp starts. real open pvp starts. If the people who wanted to go to hoth on empire werent to laizy and formed up a opps to get down those republicans you would have full scale pvp battle in spaceport.
At least hoth was denied for the empire that day, at least something happen that fealt a bit dynamic.
Peace is a lie, there is only passion.
