Im a returning player, came back about a month before onslaught was released. To be honest, the only thing i was disappointed about was the Galactic Command Points to the Renown Points. I found you got more and better items/ gear in the command boxes than you do in this new renown system but other than that Im fine with the game so far.
As for the the original poster, well to be frank, you sound like a *********** baby. Any mmo rpg when it comes to endgame is a grind/farm for BiS. Bioware/swtor/EA has given us multiple ways to get BiS gear. Now just because you only want to PVP, thats your problem bud. You sound like an entitled baby. If you think threatening to keep your 14$ and cancel your sub is going to instantly change something your living in a dream world. There's thousands of us that are completely ok with the current game and gearing system, including myself.
Even with this thread you created there are far more people that are ok with the gearing system then there are people like yourself complaining about it. So keep your sub, see you later, we're not going to miss you. Bye
