  1. Why are PvE players trying to ruin PvP with this "play for progression" nonsense?

     

    I think it is because most pvers have no real end game because most people find raiding boring. We see more and more pvers coming over to controlled pvp as their endgame.

     

    While I am glad to see more people learning the superior enjoyment you get in pvp over pve I can do without the calls to turn pvp into pve.

     

    Gear progression exists in end game pve because players would stop after they did all encounters once or twice. Pvp provides a unique experience every time. It does need to bribe players to participate.

  2. I think it is great, no incentive will keep the riff-raff out.

     

    Here is who won't do rateds:

     

    That guy who leaves after the other team scores once in huttball.

     

    Medal farmers.

     

    People not interested in guarding nodes.

     

    People expecting to get carried.

     

    AFKers.

     

    Here is who will:

     

    Full teams of 8 who want to face other teams of 8.

     

    People who enjoy competitive PvP.

     

    People who go after prestige items.

     

     

    If you're not satisfied with the size/deliciousness of the carrot on the end of the stick you should reassess your motivations for playing. If the only reason you PvP is for gear which is pretty much just for more PvP why do you PvP? MMO loot isn't sex, there is no climax so you better enjoy the chase or you're gonna be a cranky nerd with blueballs like most of the people in this thread.

     

     

    That is why afkers don't bother me much in pvp except the ruin individual warzones. Bad players getting gear who don't ever pvp are not magically going to be below the bottom of the barrel.

     

    But the changes will limit their rewards to almost nothing.

     

    It is pretty clear the op is trolling all this about crafted gear. They will fix it and until then you can get the gear and move the mods.

     

    His complaint is absurd. He asks why he should pvp just for looks and then cries he can't look the way he wants because of crafted gear. He is just trolling.

     

    The mods and enhancements are the rewards, the shells are designed so you can wear what you want. That is the whole point. If there is a time where people wear crafted gear because of augment slots who cares. The op said he doesn't care about looks.

     

    These are non problems. The op says I don't card about looks but how come I can't look the way I want. He needs a thwack to to the ear.

  3. I prefer competitive play with a beneficial reward system. (See: WoW and Arena with Gladiator mounts/ 2200+ rated weapons.) I can care less for showing my different coloured geared because it makes me *look* better.

     

    Well there you go... Ranked warzones provide competive gameplay where you play people on your level. I still can't take anyone seriously talking about pvp when they don't instinctively want win first and foremost. That is not something you learn or acquire.

  4. ...So I'm about to tryhard ranked wzs to satisfy my ego? Um...

     

    In your case no because you don't seem to understand pvp and your ego would just be crushed.

     

    Anyone who asks why ranked warzones with no stat increases is a pver hiding in pvp.

     

    The point is obvious and clear, to win.

  5. **** here is a Hint for all the map reading inpaired people when u look at the map North is always at the top of the map doesnt matter what side u are on North is at the TOP

     

    and here is a little saying that my 6 year old does so he doesnt forget when he looks at a map

     

    Never Eat Soggy Wheaties

     

    The problem is that is not true.

  6. In Voidstar, I've gotten to the point of yelling, "Other side!!!" This tends to get everyone's attention, and the guy all by himself and seeing 4 reds come his way isn't going to peek at the other side, while the 5 guys with their thumbs up their butt might actually look at the other door.

     

    Haha that is what I end up doing when inevitably I am guarding one side alone. Other side should be clear to most of them.

  7. The main map is not "flipped"....it is not "backwards" or facing south. No matter what side you are on...view the main map and all should be clear.

     

    It's like trying to remember 1...2...it shouldn't be difficult at all- not even with a concussion, 3 days of missed sleep, hypothermia and being severely dehydrated while suffering from a heart attack.

     

    Uh no. If I bring up the main map it is backwards from normal directions. East is to the left.

     

    So not sure what you are talking about. If you think it is normal for east to be left on a map you have a concussion.

  8. Left/right in regards to your spawn should be the easiest for all but those who get confused by spinning in circles. If the little map had a N, W, S, E posted on it then I would have faith in people being able to quickly respond to callouts. As it stands now you can watch people stop when east or west is called as they attempt to stare at the map to decide which direction is which.

     

    If it's always left/right with your back always being where you came into the map at, then I don't see how people screw that up, and I don't understand why people argue about it when it's a simple concept.

     

    To me left/right is the easiest as well but apparently some people lose orientation with the spawn point. To me left and right should always mean relative to spawn and works fine on all maps.

  9. By the way people are confusing the new world order of gear. The mods you get from warlord or whatever will be bis.

     

    I do think adding an augment slot will balance things out but people act like getting this gear will be pointless which is 100% not true as you will take the mods and move them. That is the point in the first place. Not being able to have a single look is only a very minor issue.

  10. If i read correctly, expertise will have diminishing returns as well?

     

    Anyway, this is an RPG not a FPS/TPS...these games were never about "player skill" it was about playing your class smart. They even use to have a "run" option int he older RPG's for when you were up against something you couldnt beat.

     

    If you want to show off how good you are at a game do us a favor, go play CS or something. I hate the fact that now people can just buy BM gear, when working to earn it was all the fun.

     

    Where will the progression be? Some of us dont want an RPS lacking in progression. There was actual progression and a reason to hit that queue button one more time. Now i can just...buy the gear...then what? Theres no guild vs guild, theres no seiges...its just WZ queue, a defunct ilum...and PVE instances....they going to let me buy pve gear so i can hop right into HM ops too? And even then why bother ?

     

    I hate when they easymode these damn games. Happens to every one. All to appeal to players who dont like RPG's.

     

     

    Expertise has dr now. They will be reduced so higher expertise will have a much bigger impact.

  11. If you disagree with the absurd changes Bioware is making please let them know in this thread.

     

     

     

     

    I have almost completely lost faith in these developers, but this is one of the worst decisions they could have possibly made.

     

    1) No end game pvp or raid gear has augment slots

     

    What this means is that those players with a lot of gold will be able to buy the pricey augment slotted orange gear the first week and switch over all there mods etc. Why is this bad?

     

    Your pvping and you face a fully augmented guy. You have 14 character slots, and Augments for say power are 28. So that is 14x28 or 392 extra power someone else has that had enough gold to buy the gear off the trade or farm the mats. Basically you are looking at a 25 to 30 percent increase in damage someone who is not as lucky will have, and to think they want to institute Rated PVP.

     

    2) End game gear is basicallly useless. All you have to look forward to is pulling the mods out and throwing it into some level 11 crit crafted gear, because even though it may look like crap, you still need it to compete with everyone else.

     

    3) If these changes go live you might as well become a gold farmer, because im guessing it will be around 2 million per piece of gear, or somewhere near there so 14x2 would be around 28 million for a set unless your a crafter.

     

    4) Of course they could have avoided this whole situation and just allowed certain professions to add on augment slots, but that would be too hard to figure out I guess.

     

     

     

    Please post up some screenshots of the new top rated gear you got from test and also post up some comparable crafted gear. Get as much info off the test server and come back and share, thanks!

  12. I find it funny that those people knew they were playing FOTM classes and in every game FOTM classes get nerfed. Now they are acting surprised over it.

     

    The nerfs do not even really hurt the class they just bring them inline with the rest.

     

    People who purposefully choose fotm classes do so to compensate for skill deficiencies.

     

    I will avoid playing a class if I know it is over powered although it can evolve into that if I don't check.

  13. All I see is the easy mode/ no skill options being made less effective.....

     

    • Use more than 5 keys
    • Go back and upgrade more then 5 skills from your trainer
    • Expand your toolbar to a second row
    • oh and...L2FP your toon

     

    The crying here is unreal.

     

    This is my tech on it. There were a couple class specs that allowed bad players play above their head. Average and good players will adapt. These bad players relying on this dumbed downed builds will either improve or just settle back at the true low level.

     

    Anyone who looks at the changes being made in 1.2 and don't think pvp is being greatly improved is not someone who understands gameplay or pvp in the first place.

     

    Not to mention with huge under the hood changes being made, complaining without testing just makes them look silly.
