Yeah I don't agree. Arenas can be a nice break from the monotony of 5 sorc civil wars. Plus it makes you a better player in small scale environments. And while frustrating sometimes, they are quick and you can get 8 medals quickly for some easy comms. Even if you don't do ranked I don't see why you would want to get rid of them...seems like a l2p issue

lolrift. That game died when they nerfed tempest just to cater to crybabies. Oh but they wouldn't dare touch assassins. Terrible game good riddance

You were probably going to lose anyways.

A rideable Jar-Jar Binks that yells out quotes as much as the mounts from SWG.

Not this one.

Nerd body type 1 Op's. Too hard to target with my wooden comp. Come to think, I never see any Fat/buff Operatives rolling around. Lame.

Didn't watch, but high five for Commando streams.

If pandas weren't in Warcraft 3 you would be wrong. But they were....and Ewoks were in the old Star Wars films also. I think most people just felt like an ENTIRE expansion revolving around pandas was a bit much... or maybe an excuse to leave WoW. Vanilla WoW ftw!

Does anyone know if conq. relics are better than matrix cubes at this point? fer pvp, ofc

Is this a serious post?

Voidstar- Defending first. We held the first two doors until people started leaving at around the 3 minute mark. (?) Because we were down a few men, they got ninjad west. I called east once they extended the bridge. 3 more people leave for no reason.. Noone said anything in chat. I defend east door from an assassin and a merc two times in a row and still got no reinforcements at the door even when calling east. Then I ragequit. The funny thing is, we would have won that game. Just because an assassin gets one ninja door doesnt mean we can't win on offense. We were crushing them too.

If you don't like it, then just grind space missions for credits. You're just mad people are owning you - I bet you don't even have any expertise. get better!

Simple..now that there is no delay on the animation, it's far more effective and easier to stack 3+ jugs. With the immobilize from force leap, multiple juggs can leap one target after blowing their instant 4xsingularity generator and put out 12k~ easily and instantly. And that's just from 3... The only counter to juggs is to spread out. But bad players don't spread out. So you put one or two competent healers with a bubble sorc shielding every jugg...now you have an unstoppable force that ccs you even when you manage to break the bubble. It's not that its OP but everyone has jumped on the bandwagon and people would rather complain then adapt to adversity.

You must be pretty bad.

Nah, they won't address anything. Commandos/Mercenaries will continue to be the laughing stock of pvp, serving only to feed the inflated egos of bubble-sorcs, rage mara/jugs...and pretty much every other class(provided they have a brain). It's a joke having top damage as commando almost every pug game and losing because the sents/sages on your team are garbage. Guess that's all this game is about...rolling sorcerer, marauder, or juggernaut then acting like it takes skill. This game doesn't take skill. Just the right class.

Right. I do give them a chance. It's just a very short lived one. It's just most of the time I see these 14k~ players doing things like NOT concentrating on the sorcerer who is bubble-healing his whole team...or the vanguard who stands there motionless except for the random Mortar Volley. I pretty much just look at who has better focus fire...if one team is dominating I will just leave. There is no penalty for it and I am fully min/maxed so you can't really fault me for wanting an even game where gear is not as much a factor. (Although gear doesn't necessarily = skill...it helps)

No, they don't. They just roll in premades more, thus increasing their projected win rate. But honestly yes. Republic players don't ever group; they are like special needs children.

People don't like to lose. Are you really that surprised people will leave the match when they see 2-3 people with 14-15k hp on their team? Or perhaps 3 commandos on one team just because they "look cool"? I for one always stay in every match until the first turning point, even if there are low HP baddies on my team. But as soon as those imps cap both side turrets while 5 pubs fail to get mid, or 5 imps cap south in Novare almost instantly with 4 reps around to interrupt, I'm gone. It's not worth dealing with the **** talking that almost every IMP team does, even when the vast majority of republic pugs are undergeared. Losing is still losing. It's almost always better to leave and hope to get into a game with at least SOME decent pvpers. Edit: Deserter wouldn't make sense without cross server queues

I did 600k dmg with 200k healing earlier as Gunnery. I'm kind of a big deal.

Initially people complained that there was nothing to do one you obtained full WH. Now that EWH is announced people are still complaining? Keep in mind that grinding pieces in this game is the only thing that keeps it fresh.(PvE is subjectively boring as hell) If anything now people will be rolling alts even faster. Really though I would say it's a good thing considering the amount of new pvpers we have.

I love my auto KB. it makes countless noobs rage.

The problem is, this game doesn't take skill if you have full WH+ augments(specifically if you are a marauder or PT) Take a 14K hp healing commando. He's going to get blown up fast by one "skilled" WH player. Now imagine if there are two on him, the only way he could possibly survive in that case is through Reactive Shield. Even then he's going to die eventually to these "skilled" players..because noone wants to guard or peel a 14k hp Commando in the first place, even if he plays extremely well. So that commando leaves. then you have no healer. this game is full of sabre-wielding apes who do nothing but tunnel vision and think it's "skill". its not even skilled unless its an 8v8 ranked premade. /yawn

lol, you ?

I'm not unsubbing because I was actually having fun in 1.2; it was perhaps the most fun night I've ever had pvping on my 50 Guardian. Was the downtime random and unexpected? Yes. Was the patch released too early? Maybe Yes. Am I slightly annoyed about it? Yes. **** happens. The patch seemed great Bioware, keep up the good work.
