Dear Georg, Please stop reading the official forums. People have much more balanced opinions and reasonable issues with the game elsewhere like on reddit. Although the wow forums were worse in my experience. everyone who is complainingg. The Good part of the patch: MUCH more steady progress..makes you actually get centurion gear at a reasonable and satisfying rate, so that its not useless and you don't feel "oh everyone has champ gear the only thing of worth getting from this bag is a champ gear drop." The champ gear drop is supposed to be a BONUS not the expected reward from champ bags. Hopefully we get like 6 or 7 tokens per bag so you get full cent gear and maybe 1 or 2 pieces of champ. This is the completely logical solution, and its the solution I expected for quite some time. The BAD and inevitable part of the patch will now create a huge gap in the the catch up time for people who already are BM and Champed up....but they have already said they are reducing the difference in these sets exxpertise wise gradually so just chill. Furthermore, full T2 PVE gear is QUITE effing good in pvp. i had 60% or 50% champ gear and got broken by a full Columni of the same AC (and im better than him in equal gear). So stop this insane witch hunt and find your own ways to compete in PvP and stop asking bioware to do it for you. there are a million ways to be effective. I dont think you guys realize how literally dumb you sound by dismissing this patch without even sitting down and thinking about it. I come on these forums like once every 3 weeks because of how crazy you all are.

For the record I love pvp in SWTOR, I play it like CoD. But why do i have to dread other republic people on ilum trying to get armaments in central? Shouldnt I be happy we control it instead of wishing i was there by myself? Here's an idea. Scale the number of boxes that spawn and exist at any given time to the number of faction members in central (IMPORTANT PART) who are still on their daily. This means if you have 8 faction members in central AND you control it it will (to a degree) scale to you so you don't have to absolutely dread having 4 other members of your faction on central. However, this could lead to severe problems on servers with too many imperials as they will control 90% of the time and farm for gear constantly. Well this cuts to the deeper part of the problem. The number of players allowed in the open world PVP area, should be scaled to the number of level 50s on the server. Im sorry but we know this is an issue. At least for some servers and not for others. Yes, there needs to be a phase. This takes away from the open worldness of the open world but not THAT much. its still a FFA, there are still few game mechanics but there needs to be a cap, and we need to deal with it. 70% of servers wont even notice, but those highly populated 30% of servers where imps dominate will be evened out to a degree.
