^This... I don't want to grind for hours and hours to get a piece of gear. I couldn't give a crap about gear, it's the competition that keeps me interested.

I find myself agreeing with you to be honest... I guess I was just hoping competitive pre-made vs. pre-made would at least make it somewhat more enjoyable, but it'd just be papering over the cracks. This game had so much potential and now, for me at least, it's been destroyed. Guess it's time to go back to the xbox and Fifa 12...

No, I won't be coming back I'm afraid. This sort of thing highlights how inept BioWare are when it comes to PvP and makes me question whether it will ever get better... Sure, in 6 months they may implement ranked but how long is it going to be before their next failure? I question their ability to run a successful MMO... After many years of dedicated WoW play maybe my standards are high but, considering the WoW subscription and the SWTOR subscription are the exact same price, shouldn't I expect the same level of service that Blizzard provide? WoW didn't add rated battlegrounds until Cataclysm... but in the same breath, they didn't announce it to be implemented and then decide to wait until patch 4.6 before they did... The MASSIVE changes BioWare made with 1.2 were also ridiculous considering the game is still in it's infancy. SWTOR = Rift v.2

So all those PvE guilds who like to track their progression are pathetic too, right? For me, a PvP player, things have become VERY stale. I have been doing nothing but PvP since I started playing the game at release... I log on and do nothing but PvP because it's the only thing that interests me anymore... I was a hardcore PvEer in WoW from Burning Crusade to Cataclysm, so I really have no interest in doing that again in another game. As I said, the PvP has become stale. Cross server WZ would maybe help but the fact is that I have been waiting for ranked since it was announced it would be coming with 1.2... Then 1.2 hits and they say they're not implementing it yet... I remained patient, hoping that it would come soon. The news that it may not even be put in 1.3 is just unacceptable... This week I have found it difficult to log into the game because I have become tired of the endless grind and just want to get down to the competitive PvP play... PVP is SUPPOSED to be competitive, that's the point of it, and if you think differently then you're not a PvP player... The thread is titled 'Who would stay, If 1.3 did Not have ranked or 8 man queue?' ...not me, that's for damn sure. Infact, I'm cancelling my subscription the second I've posted this because I don't see the point in wasting £8.99 on a game that has become stagnant for me... This isn't me threatening to quit because Bioware won't pad my e-peen... This is me QUITTING because I am not being given the service I pay for. Diablo 3 in 5 days, right?

THIS! Well said, sir. +1 Internetz for you.

I have no idea what you guys are talking about.... I skipped the 80+ pages of QQ... The Rakghoul Plague is AWESOME. World events like this are what makes an MMO brilliant. I hope this develops and gets worse because it's an awesome story. Enjoy the world event guys... Or go and play your single-player console games that don't evolve and is the same stuff over and over again. There aren't even any penalties for dying from it... Seriously, do you guys just enjoy complaining? This is my first post on here because I HATE coming to these forums, but I felt compelled to reply to this one. I hope BioWare doesn't listen to the majority of people who troll these forums because they have absolutely no idea what they're talking about... Rant over... I'm out of here before the QQ plague infects me.
