(From Taugrim.com)SWTOR Has Repeated RIFT’s Mistakes in Endgame PVP

and how do effect on PVP? from what i know u pvp on even stats didnt the guy right here said so? that's was my experience of GW2 just in PVP and that's it i honestly didnt do PVE the beta was short (as my free time) and did only PVP

That's cool. I'm only arguing that some of the reasons you have stated that it isn't the game for you are not factually correct. However, there are plenty of valid personal reasons to prefer one game over another. I'm not trying to convince anyone to play one game over another. I'm just clearing up misconceptions and factually incorrect statements.

The answer to that is rather simple. A game like GW2 has never been released before. Trust me, if GW2 was available at the same time as SWTOR I would never have played this game. I've enjoyed aspects of SWTOR PvP but still felt constrained by it's system (which has been pretty standard for MMORPG PvP across the board until now).

This game has better raiding and dungeons that guild wars 2 and secret world.
In fact, guild wars 2 will never have good crafting, dungeons, or anything remotely good that is worth $15 a month which is why it is free 2 play.

There is a vast amount of customization involved to change your stats, armor set bonuses, weapons procs etc. I'll admit I found the game shallow at first as well until I discovered just how much customization is possible. Look at the links I posted from the GW2 wiki just to get an idea of how much variety there is in gear choices alone.

And the choice you make there will synergize with your weapon, utility, and trait choices. It's very robust.

So, yes... a person can have an advantage over another person due to gear. BUT, that advantage will be because of gear CHOICES not gear PROGRESSION. That is a huge difference, and it personally means everything to me.

Fair answer i accept that... I wouldn't do so if i don't have a game i like i don't buy a game i think i may not like just because i cannot way.

But most of all if i buy a game with a certain type of mechanics and i know i won't like them and if i really end up playing it maybe because my friends play it and i want to play with them... i wont go whine on forums saying this game is wrong because of this this and that (beeing this this and that never suppose to be in this game the way I like it)

I dont like bread but i buy bread because my friend like bread i eat bread then i send a complaining letter to the bread manufactury because the bread doesn't taste like a cake.

Guild wars 2 has been done so many times already. People are just buying the hype or advertising hoopla. Game is very much like SOE planetside but more rpg. People that bought guild wars 1 will never buy that game.

I played Planetside and enjoyed it quite a bit, but comparing GW2 to Planetside? Uh, no. It's a different style of game. It's like comparing apples to oranges. GW2 still falls under an MMORPG category while PS falls under an MMOFPS category.

I would never compare PS to SWTOR, for example. That would be...well, stupid.

did anyone answer this? the fact that he did this pretty much invalidates everything he wrote.

They both are the same. No gear, 3 sides fighting. All the features of guild wars 2 is copied from planetside. They just put RPG in the title. That game will suck just like guild wars 1.

i do agree with most of his perspective/opinions on PvP.

pre 1.2 was MUCH, MUCH better in terms of balance and class distribution. BW is making a mess of this, the same way every other MMO (minus WoW, i played too little to comment) has done in the past, regarding class balances and adjustments...

expertise has a place, albeit, a small one. it should weed out PvE gear trumping PvP gear...that's it.

better WZ's, more WZ's, different game modes (ctf, tdm, etc.), content!!

i'm not getting paid to think for BW, altho i have many ideas and suggestions. it is their hole to plug.

but, this game has HUGE potential...

the Devs and decision makers need to take an MMO history lesson and pull their heads out of their dark place, and start getting things done...

p.s. idk who they got to test this game...but, something's not working. or those people aren't "testing" and playing the game with any non bias. there is no way some of the "adjustments" should have went live. (1.2)
