Without team charters this "rated warzone" system is a cop-out. How are you people missing this? There won't be any real measure of success or failure, because each game will just be an average of everyone else's rating combined with yours. Sure this'll probably keep 12k hpers from fighting 18k hpers, but is that really enough for you? I want a real ladder system where the team on top is recognized as such. I want to beat the best and be acknowledged for it. After listening to the guild conference I cancelled my account. This game is even worse than what WoW has become. No, that does not mean I'm going back to play that 7 year-old game. I want something NEW! LOL! imagine that

Really blew it Bioware. Most pre-orders ever, and failed to follow through. So dissapointed. Feedback: You copied WoW's boring and mundane stuff, and cut out the stuff that made it fun to play in the first place. Bad!

and i love rated warzones, but I'm still limited by who I can find to play with with my meager republic population. If a new player is serious about competitive pvp in this game they pretty much have to roll empire unless they pick the 1-2 PvP servers where the population is more even. good riddance to Ilum btw

well since you asked... its commonly said that the imperial story lines are more fun to complete. many of the little imbalances between class mirrors favor the imperial counterparts. their races are cooler looking, and the trailers before the game launched showed an empire ravaging the republic with the republic's best soldiers managing to hang on to alderaan. so now they can do similar things for the republic! there are still plenty of people who haven't picked up the game yet, those new players (and old with legacy stuff) can be encouraged to go rep

thats all servers. They then said PvP servers are HEAVILY stacked with imperial players.

if ilum didn't have crippling framerate issues i could outplay my way to victory in the 20v70 situations. i need basic tools for success bro

you'll leave the game if SGRA aren't added? hm

And then proceeded to laugh it off as only mattering in Ilum, which they're removing. That doesn't fix the problem, though! Some steps need to be taken to make republic better than empire in some way, so we can have more than ONE 16man operation guild on our faction (and we only manage to get the 16 1-2 days a week). I heard them talk about outlaw's den fun, with 25v25 and other smaller deathmatch stuff. Sounds amazing, but with the lack of republic players (and a lot of the good ones quitting due to no arena) its something I've never experienced. Do something about PvP server faction imbalance in the near future please. Or at least tell us you're doing something besides cross-server warzone queueing (which is a must for a ladder system regardless of server pop).

lol thats a good way of looking at it

in case it hasn't been said, you get commendations to purchase War Hero gear from rated warzones. You can purchase different color gear with those commendations if you're sufficiently rated withing said rated warzone system.

most people don't comprehend what's being discussed here, so it probably will be something for later/never

I don't remember Bioware ever using the word arena or phrase "small-scale deathmatch pvp". I guess I'd like to know up front if this is ever going to be implemented (and by ever i mean in the next couple months). WoW is calling me back after 6 years worth of subscriptions due to arenas alone, but I'll hold off if arenas are being developed.

WoW only had 15 minutes, it wont be any different cause this game is WoW with less stuff

i wondered why world pvp seemed nonexistent on most of my leveling experience. Sacrificing gameplay for the sake of a storyline. Should I expect this in the application of future content?

The rate and quality of content added isn't enough to keep me playing. Rise of the Rakghouls was such a pitiful failure of a major content patch. 1.2 is at least 3 weeks away, and there is absolutely nothing I haven't completed over and over in this game. Here's a tip, should you actually bother to act on good feedback: Don't screw up your rated warzone system, and add a 4v4 arena system ASAP. The argument that world pvp would die if such a thing was added no longer applies to TOR, because its obvious that TOR is a collection of instances separated by several loading screens apiece. EDIT: 14 of the people I've personally played with since launch have all quit for the same reasons I now have.
