I find it remarkable that I try to leave with grace and honesty and people still have an attitude. Have fun with that....

/approves_this_message My sub runs out next week because of 1.4 and more importantly because there is no discussion from the devs that they failed to fix the problems we brought to them. Bioware, trust is what builds the MMO relationship between customers (not fans) and the game devs...

Spoiler / Prediction: In SWTOR, PvE gear will out perform PvP gear for PvP activties within 2 years of this date. Max health will overcome expertise by design. Grind and play more of the PvE content and you too will beat most PvPers...working as intended. Book mark this post and quote me when it happens.

Now I really don't care about the whole gear driven game stuff but what I would add is regarding how gear is nullified. Chained crowd controls with limited breaks (long cool downs) will absolutely destroy any sense of class balance and gear. When a ranged DPS can progressively chain lock a melee and kill them even when the breaks and resolve are used correctly, there is no balance.

Well everyone, it’s time I bid you all farewell. After hoping they would fix resolve and all the frigging crowd control that goes on, my patience is finally gone. I’ve heard the whole “we are working on…” routine enough to know when it’s time. Especially since 1.4 was supposed to fix the problem. All I do is PvP in this game. The fictional level 50 war zones (covering up lowbie levels) still doesn’t get a full team all the time and I grow tired of re-educating the next batch. Team composition (in randoms) still decide the vast majority of matches with speed and heals being the main determiner. Premades are fine but even those have issues. I would have liked to do more rated war zones but unless you join a losing premade for farming or have a competent guild, they just aren’t worth doing if you have the gear. And my favourite, world PvP, just isn’t going to happen with bioware anytime soon… So I bid you all my sincerest thanks for all the zerging and mass destruction focused on my sorry character. My sub goes until the 12th and then I’m done. I may return if and when they fix CCs or world PvP. /salute to those who gave it their best /bow to those who left before me and set the stage for playing well /rude to those who chatted in war zones more than they PvP’d Come PvP with me until the end. See you on the flip side… Until Lightsabers Cross, Warlord Magyarsaber

I stopped asking for a solution after 1.4. Instead, I unsubbed after sending in a report to the subscription people. I will play for another 2 weeks but then I'm done if this is not seriously addressed by the devs. Being cc locked and killed by 2 ranged classes is just stupid. This is why I wanted resolve fixed. What did we get? A mechanic that now works as intended....I've heard this crap too many times.

/agree I have seen how name changes create an opportunity for the crap players to get a free pass with a new identity and I have seen good players lose reputation (i.e. and the play enjoyment that comes with it) because of name changes. The serious core players of a game know reputation matters. Names are how they are recognized. Changing those names means the previous two sentences mean nothing. Oh and if players can pay to change names, the entry of idiots will kill your community. Bioware, if you listen to your parent EA on making money, you will fail at community and ruin your brand name forever. Listen or don't, it's your future.

"I am Magyar and I am pond scum. You are not Magyar and therefore less than pond scum." Is this good or bad role playing? Is the cup half full or half empty? If you don't want to hear someone's RP or lack of it, put them on ignore. It's a wonderful thing. And yes, you can ignore me. Peace out.

All the trading in the world will not make a good player. These people talk crap all the time too. They make great targets when the opportunity presents itself because they are the ones who rage quit when losing.

I have the exact same thing, but maybe for a different reason. I do different servers for each faction so I don't switch to the other faction and kill every stupid moron I encounter on my current faction. Seriously, it's good to have separation. It's BS that they want to force all my toon factions on a given server to get legacy rewards.

Whaaaaaaaaaaat? Where is the redesign of Ilum for world PvP? What's the point of doing ranked war zones when you already are fully augmented war hero? Neglected includes time past without results and new content....but hey we have rocket boots now....and many more pets....

/signed I am Magyarian and I approve this message.

I would trade stealth for a serious anti-stun-blindness-root-choke 1 button immunity ability.

In PvP, it would be great if we could observe Hutt Ball and place bets on the outcomes. Or provide the same for a new game. To bet on or to bet on as team would be great. It would be even better if this was between players. The ranking system could even help set the odds.

Cap locks incoming! IF BIOWARE LIMITS PVP MATCHES FOR F2P I WILL NEVER PLAY THIS OR ANY OTHER BIOWARE GAME AGAIN. Seriously, I want MORE people PvPing and not less. Otherwise, my subs all this time have been a wasted investment in the game. I saw this nonsense with another 1 million plus player game that was mismanaged to death.

So I noticed I got 10,000 kills in PvP. Whoot, I say in guild chat. Da end. So why not differentiate those with 10k plus kills...like a hit list to auto-mark like we do with healers? This way the strong players know who to focus fire and the weak know when to get out of Dodge. What do you think?

0 metals still gives you credit for the pvp daily. I also usually give MVP to whoever came in late last.

Well, if you are full war hero and don't need the valor, it really doesn't make much of a difference. But at least it eliminates the speed boost game where first to capture wins...

Uhm...wz are probably the most anti-social part of the game, even to one's own team. No, just say no to social points in wz's. That's what MVP points are for.

For the most part, the above is why I don't play rated at the moment. Here's one more: 6. I am full war hero, not much of a reward for doing rated unless I'm with a leet team.

This posting is a serious attempt to ask for world pvp in a way that makes the game exciting at any moment in time. Please keep comments positive for the devs. Currently, world pvp means travelling to a world and hoping there is someone there who wants to fight. Sometimes it means ganking people who are just levelling. Sometimes it means going to Illum and finding an occasional equal or getting pushed out. What if from time to time, the alarms go off on the station, a series of station entry points are attacked and boarded, and the enemy invades our base station en mass? The attacker could have no respawn points and be designed to create a bit of excitement for all concerned. When the alarms go off, people can choose to retreat to their ships, to the VIP lounge, travel to another planet or log off. Coming back from an op or wz when the attacks happen could make it even more interesting. A few pesky stealthies may even linger for a time to harass people after the all clear is sounded and probe droids could be patrolling for a time until all enemies are accounted for. What do you think?

Yep yep. Probably take a few patches...

I thought it mught be a good idea to create a known bug issues thread for the augmentations. So here's mine: War Hero Weaponmaster Offhand Saber Tried to add an augmentation slot and could not. It's greyed out even though I have a MK-6 kit in inventory. It may be bugged because I first swapped the expertise crystal for a different colored one and no charge occurred. Edit: Tried a diff MK-6 kit, same result. Gravity Wave Device Says I cant add an augmentation slot to this when I try. "Cannot modify this item."

1. Melee classes are the hardest to play as crowd control abilities coupled with ranged dps hurt us. 2. Yes, we have medium armor unlike healers with heavy. 3. Yes, we have a "oh no" button that eats what's left of our health but doesn't stop damage put on us BEFORE popping it. 4. Our dps is good as long as we can stay within melee range. 5. Are we "gods"? Not even close. Of 6 classes we sit at number 2 or 3 depending on optimal conditions. One on one, definately number 2. Now if you are asking me if I personally am OP with full WH gear, I still die like a squashed bug when focus fired upon....even without being chain stunned.
