  1. There is nothing about this game that says I need to pay $15 a month in addition to what I already paid by purchasing the game. The story lines are good, but it's designed with a single player in mind. Essentially it's a single player game with 3 multiplayer maps. I realize it's a great design to make the leveling process/story line soloable. However it seems to go out of its way to make teaming up with other players hard or just unnecessary. By this I mean there is no dungeon queueing for groups! There are no incentives to group up. Another problem for grouping is that there are too many servers. Yes I realize that this cuts down on waiting to log into the game, but my server is deserted! There is absolutely nobody on Ilum and maybe a handful of people per planet. So that makes it tough to do heroics or any of the flashpoints. The companions are great, but with them, there's no need to group. Therefor it's an enjoyable single player game. I want to like warzones, I really do. But it's just three maps with only a handful of people. Imagine playing Call of Duty on only three maps, but you're paying Activision $15 a month to play it. It's unacceptable and it's not okay to put up with. I know there's Ilum, but the fact that servers are unbalanced and can't handle more than a handful of people. It's just not what I expected out of PVP. I remember having a much funner experience in zone pvp in Vanilla WoW, and the areas were not even designed for PVP! But it was the game design that allowed for pvp battles to spring up among players in unexpected areas! I know why they designed warzones with only 16 players per match... because they don't know how to make anything bigger. I'm sure they tried but it brought out glarring issues with their game mechanics and classes, so they cut the player cap at 16 and decided it was good enough. This is speculation on my part. To end my thoughts, I did enjoy the story line. This game will definitely change how future MMO's do stories via voice acting, but that's it. It's a good single player game, not great. By comparison Skyrim's world feels light years ahead of what we're offered by BioWare. And i'm not paying extra money to play Skyrim. So no, i'm not going to pay more money to play 3 maps and a mediocre single player experience.
  2. Go operative, sniper is only dps and not much else. And dps alone doesn't win wz matches.
  3. They're absolutely right! I played my first character all the way to 50, a IA. I thought I was pretty good and started an inquisitor sorcerer. It's polarizing. My sith inquisitor is vastly superior to my agent in manuverability and survivability. Plus he deals decent damage. All my agent has is crits and that's about it...

    AFKers...

    I got the same issue on my server. There are people who just zone in and hide somewhere and just stay there the entire match! They will be thrown out for going afk for a bit, but come right back into the match. It is really frustrating.
  5. I'd rather abandon the game than go republic.
  6. It's stupid. The bracketing should be 40-50, and have a seperate 50's only ranked pvp bracket.
  7. I haven't had a pvp match all day and i can't leave the queue either!
