  1. Well, the point was that SWG was diffferent. It was sandbox, and a lot of its features were unique and fresh, even to this day. Lucasarts owned the rights to it, even if SOE developed it. It was there waiting for them if they wanted it, but they cast it aside and focused on the popular and old *** moneymaker that most of us hate. SWG had a lot of things wrong, but a whole lot right. The press and critics only focused on the wrong, but Bioware could have taken what was right and made something better from it instead of another WOW clone. Had SWG had a good dev team and not destroyed itself two years after its launch, we'd all be playing it still instead of this pathetic thing.
  2. No, people leave because there is no point in taking part in PVP other than gear. That game has already been played before, and it's old. People want meaningful PVP to take place where taking positions and areas mean something and the battlefield changes based on outcomes of fights. Adding in minigame rankings is not this. Minigames are not PVP, they are e-sport competitions and are better left to first person shooters and arcades. The whole genre of MMORPGs is suffering from this, but SWTOR and Bioware dropped the ball by following instead of leading. We already have enough WOW clones. SWG was ripe for the taking. They could have used the knowledge from that old MMO and forged something better from it instead of copying something safe like WOW. Themeparks are just an awful design for MMOs. "Blah, blah, blah, numbers!" Call of Duty has numbers. That doesn't make it a "good" game. /rantoff
  3. The better name for this thread would be "If all you do is carebear and minigame, why are you on a PVP server?"
  4. How in the **** is this annoying to you people? Damn, I wish you people would just go away. I like that my character laughs. It lets me know that I'm ready to kick ***.
  5. Wasting your time, pal. The devs want to kill PVP. They hate when players other than carebears have fun. Free bump.
  6. Found out the hard way that it is essential for staying alive in Eternity Vault, lol. Otherwise, I don't use it either.
  7. Merc Pyrotech is laughably underpowered in 50 brackets compared to other specs. Grinding up the lower levels was fun and I was on even footing with other classes most of the time. Not so in 50 brackets. The most problems come from bubble blowers and hamburglars. They just will not die. I don't have any problems with heat, but my attacks don't get them past 50% before they just heal it all back up or stealth away and come back and kill me in 3 hits. Merc Pyrotech needs an interrupt somewhere high up in the tree, desperately.
  8. The lack of Open World PVP and the promotion of instanced garbage minigames.
  9. Ilum is a pile of shlt. PVPers want real Open World PVP, not some empty battlefield where people swap kills for gear.
  10. Something has to be done about Open World PVP. Instanced PVP is old and tired.
  11. So sick of seeing nothing but instanced PVP threads on the front page. Can't these kids from WOW ask for anything else?
  12. Lol, threads like these are pure comedy. Sadly, I think the OPs are serious.
  13. 1 - More Open World PVP 2 - More Open World PVP 3 - More Open World PVP
  14. Playing fair speaking of game systems, yes. Playing fair in terms of faction/class balance, no. Adapt and overcome.
  15. Patch 1.2 better be freaking amazing. Rated Warzones and more focus on Ilum ain't gonna cut it.
  16. Something has to be done soon, something other than warzones. Something that has meaning. Ilum in its current state has as much meaning as warzones. Patch 1.2 better be the most awesome thing Bioware has ever done, or a lot are going to give up completely. Rated warzones ain't gonna cut it. There better be a huge surprise in there for World PVP.
  17. Lucasarts strategy: >Make amazing sandbox MMO with freeform classes that mix and match. >Destroy said MMO with "new game enhancements", alienate current subscription base, search for WOWtard casuals. >Create new WOW-in-space MMO. >Shut down old MMO, alienating old subscription base further. >Re-do new MMO to make like old destroyed one, alienating new subscription base, restoring faith in old base. >Nostalgia from old base causes profits to soar. >New, redone MMO kills competition, new subscription base whines on forums. >trollface
  18. First off: E-sports = competition. PVP = killing players / WAR. Secondly, PVP gear should never have been implemented in the first place. There should have been world bases and such placed on every world past the capital planets and owning those bases should have rewarded rare, one-time-use consumables, increasing in quality over the time it has been owned by a faction. Then there is a purpose to PVP constantly, and out in the open world instead of in warzones and Ilum.
  19. You're a carebear that wants to be a PVPer. The coming changes are welcomed by the actual PVPers.
  20. G.T.F.O. of warzones and get out into the open world (Ilum is not Open World) if you want actual REAL "rough" PVP. Otherwise, S.T.F.U. Carebears are the ones whining about this change. PVPers welcome it.
