Hello Gastranomick!
We've talking about this in another thread.
http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=71364
But I like that you made a new thread about it since you have a different approach to it.
I totally support this kind of "player driven content" and I can not really see a downside to it.
Though I think the credits and the "win" would be enough incentive for people to get hooked on this.
But keep brain storming people, maybe one day we'll see this implemented in the game.

I really enjoyed the first week of PvP, bolster seemed reasonable. Now I'm getting insta-gibbed by 50's in WZ's.... not so much fun now.
Where are you going with this?

Operative...
in PvP
2000 non crit2600 crit
2600 crit
2600 crit
Dead in like 7 seconds.
They also have permanent sprint. ***.
Oh no!
That's TERRIBLE!
If you find this reply stupid, then atleast you are right about something.

Auto-turning on active channeled spells is not the issue, and fine.
But on queued instant-spells and cast spells, it is not. And that's the issue.
Ok.
I play a Sage, and I do not think this applies to that class.
But not sure. Maybe I'm used to turn my char facing the opponent at all times and just haven't noticed it does that automatically..

I wrote this yesterday but noone has payed any attention to it.
If a melee is hitting someone in the face, and the enemy uses a channeled spell, running through the caster would work as an interrupt.
I'm not sure, but wouldn´t that be even a bigger problem?

One thing to remember.
When a class gets "too powerful", that class will also go up on the priority list of getting nuked down asap.
PvP is teambased. Just let your teammates know there is one bad mofo out there, and you want him dead whenever they see him.
All of a sudden he can't just sit there and spam his highest dmg abilities.
He will now have to kite 3-4 ppl, and that's just not gonna happen.
Later that day though, we will see him on the forum raging about getting stunlocked and end his post with "what gives?".
More often than not, if there is a problem, there are also sollutions.
Merry X-mas!

Merry X-mas to you all !

Have a nice day!

I just tried setting my UI Preferences/Control to Key-Press and it doesn't work. No matter what it's still Key-Release...
Try relogging. It works fine for me.
-
Please fix this asap...It makes the game feel more clunky than it already is. Make it on Key-Press like every other MMO I've ever played.
You can do that yourself.
Preferences/Controls : Use Quickslots On Key Press

Nope, they are running straight away from me and shooting me in the face. Here's a real funny one: I was just in a Huttball and getting pew pew'd by a trooper, I jump on the floor jets that shoot you up in the air and watched his continuous stream of fire follow and curve and continue to follow me after they left his gun. Like heatseekers. Damn lasers did an S maneuver. This is beyond rediculous.
Ok. Never seen that myself.
About the lasers. It kinda has to be that way.
Otherwise any movement from a player would make them miss.

Bounty Hunters and Troopers are shooting me in the face even when they are running away from me. When I try to use my force abilities and I'm not facing the target- it says: .... you cannot see your target
What gives?
Are they perhaps strafing away?

If you are sick of reading the same thread "over and over again", don't click on it then.
I don´t know if you're trying to be funny, or if you didn't get what I meant.
Either way, have a nice day!
*edit*
Or shoud I just go "Word up, Peace! Incarcerated scarfaces."

It could be abused the other way around too.
If a melee is hitting someone in the face, and the enemy uses a channeled spell, running through the caster would work as an interrupt.
I'm not sure, but wouldn´t that be even a bigger problem?

seriously this is rediculous i have not had one warzone that wasnt huttball, what the hell is going on
You are Empire.
There are much more Empire than Republic.
Huttball is the only WZ where Empire can fight Empire.
I'll leave the rest for you to find out, cause I´m really getting sick of reading the same thread over and over and over again.

ok what is the benefit of PvP? i am new to mmos but i like playing with other players and being able to attack other players of the opposite side. But i was curious if PvP like wazones helps you advance in the game or if they are just for fun? i know there are social points also, but was confused on what those do for u. :/ i am new like i said so a little help would be appricitated
Hello bdiddyrocker!
For your sake, and for the sake of your teammates, try to read up a little about the objectives in the three different Warzones.
I don't think it's too much to ask of anyone.
People expect others to have atleast some basic knowledge of tanking or healing when in Flashpoints. I believe it's fair to ask the same for the people going into the Warzones.

How can I move it? I have my right bar keybinded and the mini map covers like my first 3 skills so I can't see the CDs.
The UI is locked right now. You cannot move or resize anything.
I believe they will fix that soon.

i agree, something needs to be done about the bolstering garbage. Just came out of a huttball with my team consisting of random <20's and a few 30+, with the other team clearly being a premade having everyone other than one person 45+.
Stomped us, didnt even stand a chance, couldnt make a dent in anyone even though we all had a similiar healthpool.
Hope they plan to change something before pvp dies because of it. And ppl saying "oh its good cuz we dont have to wait" are delusional or are the ppl who just rushed to 50 enjoying the spoils.
Sad too i really love the pvp and huttball, but when your trying to fight a brickwall with a spoon, it kinda leaves a bad taste in your mouth, even if they were to fix it down the road.
Here´s my view on the situation.
In a few months time there will be hardly any lvl 10-40 characters. The queue times would be horrific for the few who are.
I don't think that makes me "delusional", it´s just how I believe it would be.
Now, I´m not saying the bolstering system is flawless, I am simply saying that you have to take the good with the bad and make the best of it.
I agree that it can be annoying when meeting these premade 50s (I´m lvl 26 atm) but sometimes I get thrown in a team with them, and then it's my turn to win.
Most of the time I would say the teams are pretty even.
Imo, this isn´t a big deal.
I think the fact that they are working together, and your team isn't, makes a bigger inpact on the outcome than the fact that they are lvl 50.
Personally I think only 2 brackets would be needed. 1-49 and 50s alone.
This because the lvl 50s will get too powerful with the expertise gear they can get.
With all that said, I do believe and hope there will be more coming regarding PvP.
I think we will see the option to fight in 8v8 premades.
I have a feeling they have some goodies in store for us.

Not everyone proclaims to be elite though.
What?!
You can't proclaim to be "elite" and still have things to learn?
Who would you call "elite"? The 0.1% that can pretty much kill anyone with a naked character?
What is "elite" anyway?
/Bird
-
Above average and generally helpful for newer players? Yes.
So good you can proclaim yourself "elite"? Nope.
I've seen you're stream, you got a few things to learn yet.
Who doesn´t?

same here
and honesly bird im starting to like seeing you post on here, alwase informative when needed, but willing to put people in their place when they need it.
Ty!
Feels good to know I'm doing something right. That was the plan all along.

Hello!
About Taugrim I would like to say this.
He helped me improve my gameplay, no doubt.
Gave me new things to think about, small things, here and there.
But the most valuable lesson I got from watching his videos/streams is that you can actually PvP with PUG's without acting like a total D-bag.
I try to help out more, give better feedback, and generally be a nicer person to PvP with.
It's still annoying as hell sometimes when running with a bunch of "headless chickens", but my QQ'ing has evolved into a more helpful, positiv thing.
Most of the time.
I too have bad days ofc, and sadly some ppl may sometimes get caught on the other end of that barrel.
But I'm working on it. And Taugrim should definetly be the one to thank for that.
So, Thank You!

No Huttball Pass Button
in PvP

Press "P", go to the "General" tab. There you have an ability called "Throw the Huttball".
Merry X-mas!
