The voice actor for Blizz

Just thought I would update everyone to let them know that it has now been an hour and ive yet to complete a single match of pvp. It has now been 6 disconnects in he space of an hour. Really bioware, I mean are you actually ****i g serious? If you can take time out of putting all your efforts into the next legacy perk that will cost 4m credits for minimal usefulness and maybe work on having a functional game that would be just swell.

I only logged in around 40 minutes ago and have already disconnected 3 times. There's nothing even wrong with my internet cause I'm surfing the web on my iPad just fine and I can log back into the server straight away. I said I'd come on to do the pvp daily. First time I disconnect is with 30 secs left on but all when I was on the winning team, the other two times were as I just entered and just before I entered pvp. So still 0/6 on the daily for me after 40 mins. Whenever you feel like letting me play a game that actually works bioware it will be much appreciated .

What is the reasoning behind, (and are there any plans to change), the way you can buy level 20 and level 40 pvp gear before reaching these levels but you can't purchase battlemaster or war hero gear before 50 and store it? As it is, on my server at least, there are a group of republic players in full augmented war hero gear who literally make winning a game impossible when playing against them. As a result, fresh 50s on the empire side have a hard time grinding 50 and 60 commendations per match to save up for BM gear. I've also noticed fresh 50s on the republic side gear up quite fast as a result of the frequent wins. Allowing people to buy BM gear before level 50 would surely balance this problem out and would also fairly benefit those who level through pvp and currently have to sit at the commendation cap with nothing to spend them on.

Actually not a bad idea. It might get a bit boring but it's better than 4 of you going up against 8 of the other team.

Yeah I agree with this,if anything I want more of it. There's an npc quest giver on Ord Mantell who, when you get near her, says "hey keep your head down and get over here" which leads into the mission you get from her. Was very impressed with the likes of that.

Will 1.3 see an increase in the war zone commendation cap or the removal of the level requirement to buy battle master/war hero gear or will those of us who level through pvp continue to lose out as our commendations income is capped at such a low level with no resourceful way to spend them?

Same here OP and completely agree. Loading screens seem to be a general problem so I would hope if they dont fix them they could at least extend the deserter curse for the less fortunate people. Although just so you know, once the loading screen is finished just spam 'esc'. Most of the time that gets me out of the scene before it even starts,while the three dots in. Th bubble thing is over my head. Another hint, if you make an alt, make a consular or an inquisitor. They have a move called force speed which is a god send!

I've been saying this for some time now. My char is only level 19 and has reached the cap. At the moment my main is on his 5th day of level. 50 pvp dailies in order to afford ONE piece of war hero gear. I do not want this grind when I get my alt to 50. Pvp is the only thing I do. Why should those of us who pvp be punished by not being allowed to accumulate, in essence, pvp money beyond 2000 commendations. Also, this way I don't slowly have to regrind all the commendations again at 50 to get the battle master gear while I'm thrown straight into the deep end against a bunch of pre mades. Honestly I wish they'd change this before server mergers/transfers.

I made an almost identical thread a few days ago. Unfortunately the suggestion box forums don't seem to be as lively as others but there are a few others who have agreed. Here's the thread: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=447260&page=2&highlight=Remove+level+requirement+buy REALLY hope they change this soon. Ive stopped playing my alt cause if I'm going to grind, it may as well be in my main where I can actually use my rewards instead of having them capped.

You're right actually I forgot about that. Better yet it's valor rank 40 not level 40 as valor levels faster than xp up until about rank 50. Still though, that means I can afford one battle master item and convert it to a war hero item at 50. That's still pretty lame

+1 I posted the same thing in the suggestion box but let's face it, no one reads that. It's a no brainier. And with the ridiculously low cap on the amount of wz commendations you can carry, my char, currently level 18, will be stuck on 2000 commendations until level 50. Surely this kind of thing is needed to give fresh 50s a chance against pre mades. Hope they do something about this soon, this is probably my highest priority in the game believe it or not.

Shamelessly bumping and I don't care cause I'm hoping the devs see this an implement a change sooner rather than later.

You can buy recruit gear as soon as you hit 50, which you need to. You can't buy good pve gear at 50. Plus I'm doing the same thing now as I would at level 50. I'm working for the gear just like i Would at Level 50
