  1. Nah, im more like a bored guy who enjoys pointing out when other people are wrong.
  2. But we are still subjected to the same laws of physics. That is my point. That regardless of how good you are, reality applies to all. What "you" are trying to do... (ill use your example)... is start a running race (you know, competition and all).... then ask to nerf the ppl better than you, or special treatment for yourself. That is the gist of it, you ask to modify the race rules.. so "you" get preferential treatment. Is that fair? All in all, you want to dumb down the game to the extent that there is no difference when it is played by a monkey or idk a brain surgeon. How can competition exist in a place like that? i think you are looking for PvE, where mobs do not care if they are at a disadvantage, they do not care if the rules are not fair.
  3. I am only going to say this to you once. Reading comprehension and consistency. Get some, please.
  4. It is impossible to balance the game around the absolute worst players ever, because no matter what you come up with, they will still be bad at it. I mean cmon, ppl even fail at freaking tetris. How much can u dumb it down, how simple can u make it, ... before it stops being worth playing? Skill can not compensate for balance, since a class played by a skill player is still subjected to the same game mechanics as the class being played by a less skilled player.
  5. Moving target is moving. By the time you actually get there, it is no longer in melee range.
  6. Did you ever stop to think that classes were designed for different roles? I mean not every class was designed to be front line, not every class was designed around control... etc. Ever think that you trying to play all classes the same way is WRONG?> I mean, if you want to play all classes the same.... off course classes that are specialized in that role will outperform classes that are not. But it is your choice not to use your class strengths, it is your choice not to utilize the tools your class has and the class you are trying to emulate has not. TLDR: each class has a specific role to play. Learn what that role is and play it, instead of whining you can not compete in another role with classes that are specialized in that.
  7. Not going to happen. Even if you get 90% of the player base to sign it; because numbers don't make you right..Yeah yeah marketing whatever, but atm you are still playing the game... if they break it you won't; the change would make an insurmountable amount of harm more than it would do good. You might dislike the pvp meta game rules (players who can play the game properly do not dislike it), but it took years to develop and balance it... and changing the way slow/roots work in relation with resolve will break the game. Even if hypothetically they change it, next day you will be on the forum crying for the change to be reverted. So why go through the whole process?
  8. You posted this while i edited mine, to give you a more accurate answer. Read up. (not to mention this has been discussed and posted "a million times" before)
  9. Will ppl pls stop comparing games with real life? Besides its not even an accurate one. Here i will try using a comparison to explain it to you: You are saying that ppl walk, run etc.... but then there are special ppl who can defy gravity and fly just by their own will. You need to make a comparison to the laws of physics / reality, something that applies to everyone. Game mechanics are "the laws" of reality within the game. No matter how good you are as a player, you can not defy the game mechanics... your abilities are exactly the same as any other player playing the same class. The same way, no matter how "special" you are of a person, you can not defy the laws of physics. An individuals ability to use those class abilities correctly is an impossible goal to balance around, since every player has a different level of skill. No matter, how simple you make a game, there are still going to be people who fail at it, and it will "feel" unbalanced to them.
  10. Because they are balancing the game, and classes between each other within the limits of game mechanics; ..and not balancing around the ability of every individual to play the game correctly, because that is impossible. p.s. you did oversimplified it. There is more to balancing than dps /hps. You need to include cc,utility, survivability etc etc.
  11. So those good players have access to tools and game mechanics unavailable to the rest of the players? First you are saying the class lacks the tools, then you say it doesn't but require a competent player to play them correctly. Some classes are more dificult than others, true. But class strength (potential) is the same for all players playing that class.
  12. 5char edit: players start taking it personally. Like i am criticizing who they are and not their game-play.
  13. You will not get this for RWZ, for the same reason you could not chose WoW Arena map.
  14. That is impossible. That idea is an Oxymoron. "Everyone" wants the game to be balanced at their level of play, and yet nobody is at the same level of play with everybody else. Regardless of what game in existence you are referring too, there are people who can play them well and people who can not play them that well.
  15. And you wonder why you are bad. You are not even aware of your own class mechanics. I assume your knowledge of others is terrible.
  16. My status in the game has nothing to do with why i am right. It is there to show the amount of experience and aptitude that is behind that "opinion". Because of the things you said after, and at the risk of repeating this in my answer to other quotes from you: You put "friendship" in front of player capability and the top of your standards is based on your performance as a player and (correct me if i am wrong) isn't that great. . That is why your standards are not as high as mine. No. Top guilds tend to be more exclusive, and players need to compete for a spot in that guild /team. I suggest that if you are not in one of those top guilds, it is because you are not good enough. See? told you, that you have lower standards than me. I do not care about "friendships". I will play with the best players available, even if i have to exclude friends from that team. I will make new friends. I am a competitive player, and i am not sorry for it. Me choosing to play with other people has no bearing on my friendship with the "excluded" players. We can still be friends, do normal wz together, or whatever... but i will not have them in my team if they are not good enough. If that is not good enough for them, it is their problem. I'm bored, sue me. P.S. People, people... you need to stop identifying yourself with what you do. Your value as a person is not reflected in WHAT YOU DO. Everybody is invaluable, i do not judge you as a person... i judge your ability to play and understand the game. People judge your ability to do your job, ... etc. What you do is NOT who you are.
  17. His rating is a reflection on him, not me. While "good" or "bad" is subjective and i have much higher standards than say, you. There are other good guilds and teams on my server. Getting rank 1, is not done by farming... you will meet other good teams. When said other good teams dodge your team... i think it says everything. I play around 3-4h a day, and not even every day. You mean good players want to play with other good players? no way. . Players tend to group up around the same skill level. If you do not have good team mates, means you are not good enough to play with them. Who hasn't ? And since when is gear gap a valid reason to blame game balance? Excuses , excuses.When you are bad at pvp, no class is "fun", because losing isn't fun. My point is, there are top guilds on your server, why aren't you in them? There are plenty of players in top guilds who are nowhere close of full WH, but they play rated, they win and get a new item every couple of hours. Getting full wh by doing rated if you are good, it takes about the same ammount of time of getting full BM by doing normal wz. Keep telling yourself that; i mean whatever rocks your boat. This is like WoW, where 1k rated players blame game balance for their failing... when every guy and his dog is above 2k, and good players are 3k capped, or top rank. If you are that low on the pvp food chain, game balance is the least of your problems. P.S. if i stop paying attention to your opinions know that it is because you lack enough understanding of the game to have an informed opinion.
  18. True, however i do show how much my name is worth in Swtor. I asked the same of him. If you want to add more weight on your insight and opinion, you need to be able to quantify it. Arrogant or w/e is subjective. I would say it is accurate.
  19. I have no problem with him having an opinion. But he did use his name in an attempt to put more weight on his opinions, therefore i want to know how much is his name worth.
  20. The "community" does not reject classes from the team. They reject players based on their ability to play their class and knowledge of the game. It is a problem that it is found only among mediocre players.You can not balance the game around "bad" players, because regardless of the changes the game goes through, they still will not be able to play it properly. And you are?
  21. Different classes have a different skill curve required to play to their maximum capability. True. Are those players able to transcend class limitation within game mechanics? No. Class power is measured at class potential, not an arbitrary level on the skill curve attained by a random number of players possessing a random level of skill You have a problem with class skill curve. AKA class performance when handled by average players. And it is impossible to balance a game around that. "You" should start threads similar to "class x is to hard to play properly compared to class y" , and not threads regarding game balance.
  22. They don't "carry" me along. I am a key member of the team. Me on the team as concealment operative, gives the team a better chance on winning on every map... than any other class/spec in the game they could replace me with. (even if the "replacement" was still me on one of my other classes, because the team will still lack a concealment operative and what it brings to the table) And they have seen it, over and over. Every class has a guaranteed spot on a RWZ team that goes for rank 1. If you can play it properly. But if your concerned about average players and average teams..... since when are games balanced around players that can not play them properly regardless of any changes it goes through.
  23. People ratings and achievements are not opinions. Game mechanics and class limitations are not opinions. Player skill can not violate game mechanics, and all players are subjected to the same game mechanics. I don't rely on common sense for anything. I deal with reality as it is, and will change my mind, and correct my stance when proven wrong. Sadly, not everyone changes his mind when confronted with reality and his statements /ideas /etc are wrong. Several times players said (think was in another thread) that class x can not get high rating or is unfit for high level pvp, and that is the reason they can not get out of 1200 rating or no rating at all. I gave examples that proved them wrong. They did not change their mind, but instead came up with excuses.
