  1. Some people have suggested OP rerolls. Where are the abusive anon posters shouting down anyone with more than one character? I know they infest any thread that suggest people might play alts or are tired of regrinds? Good luck OP, many reasons to leave a game, "enjoying the game" is one reason to stay.
  2. Cross server PvP is vital. The fatman and in fact servers 12-20 in the world top 20 most populated ( by swtor server status) are now at or below where the asia pac servers were 6 weeks ago. 1.8-1.7, we are now 1-1.3 and falling. The mergers helped for awhile in US/EURO but barring merging the whole world onto one server, cross server is the last shot at least keeping those staying for PvP.
  3. Yes; zero issue getting people interested in sub 50 pvp, we have groups rolling in that 24/7, but 50 pvp is not so easy. We are forming guild groups 2-3-4 hrs a night for a few days after each player reaches 50 but it is very common that they do not want to continue on any regular basis. We ask every night, we form groups and we encourage, craft items, help with FPs and dailies but are experiencing a very low take up rate to PvP past basic BM gear. The core group of PvPers in the guild remains but it is very hard to get newer people interested lately. It is likely due to me being on asia-pac servers where a 20-40 min wait between wzs is not uncommon in prime time.
  4. I support the OP's stated intention. I would suggest that the video is time encoded and that the time period you are going to fraps is stated in advance of making the video. This will show that you posted all the video from a random time vs a random set of geared opponents. I hope it shows the data you want to show and it somehow assists the swtor community to retain players. I am personally struggling to convince my own guild mates that they should stick with LvL 50 pvp rather than archive any chars that reach 50 and go back to sub 50 or quit the game.
  5. Please remove the epeen attacks, focus on the topic or seek professional help. WHile I have no issue with the idea in principal, I have two questions; Would you locate the expertise on armor mod only? ( I see issues with it on the shell) and How would you bring the system in so as not to disadvantage people who have already customised their WH gear?
  6. As I have said on the multi threads for this, I am happy for one server. i do think the best fit for "one" server is the PVE ruleset, those of us from the RP and PvP servers can adapt and run our own events. Asking for the one server to be PvP rules is not going to work considering it is the lowest pop of the three. OR, just close the PvP and RP servers and offer transfers anywhere.
  7. Often I disagree with the OP and agree with those saying that it is not that hard if WZs are popping on your server. BUT The problem with this thread and many others is as follows; No matter how well intentioned your post, if the OP is not enjoying the game saying "suck it up" will not gain us another subscriber. To those who actually care about the game; It would be far better for people to just stop responding to these threads unless they have ideas that encourage new players. For those that are quite happy to finish off yet another game, carry on as usual.
  8. if you want to charge in, talk to your fellow chargers and do it 1-2-3.....boom. Charge is often the only gap closer lower lvl chars have, use it according to needs and objectives. 12s can be a long time of not having any ranged move.
  9. Thanks for the post OP. I enjoyed the quests because " I did not read any spoilers" and trundled around doing them instead. I also enjoyed the smokey speeder, bowcasters, moddable bracers/belt and wandering about getting tokens for a guild mate who was trying to collect 240. Good luck , enjoy the game
  10. I think a merger of the three servers is in order. I do have a query regarding those people in the customer help forums with difficulties connecting to dalborra? I also volunteer to spend 3-4 hours a day helping encourage people to NOT troll any Roleplayers that reside on a combined server.
  11. I have no issues with giving people more options in the companions romances. I appreciate some would like it to be subtle rather than compulsory. Good luck all, from the number of people asking for this, it does need to be looked at.
  12. Full loss of items on death might also cure the gear gap problems, esp if 50 of us on fleet can gank the WH guy and loot him..... Maybe make it pay real money to insure gear and BW can make some money as well.
  13. I doubt that the similarities to WAR and the balance issues there and here is lost on the team. I also doubt that the press releases re "metrics" give the true picture of which jobs are on the line. For myself, I still enjoy my Sorc and have shelved my bounty hunter, hopefully the SWTOR team can get their act together, in this game. Otherwise I suppose for some it will be third time lucky.
  14. Basically, most of us want PvP warzones to continue to be available as a play option. For this to happen, other people must want to queue. Please think about this before posting.
  15. Merging 2/3 will IMHO effectively kill the third. I would suggest either a merge of all three or an option of server transfers. It is ok, the PvE and PvPers will get over being laughed at..... TIC
  16. Without cross server pvp it is very hard to seperate by valor or gear levels, so I am not sure how to fix PvP prior to cross server. To the people who repeat the "we got it the hard way" mantras. No we did not, we got it on heavily populated worlds where people had similar gear and we had farming sessions for rank. It appears obvious " some people are not subscribing due to the PvP gear issues". This may be cost, balance or other issues. If the devs decide they would lose those remaining by evening out the playing field, then they should leave it as is. If they decide to level us all out gear wise, so be it, actual PvPers can adapt.
  17. The tiers should be 1-54 bolstered, 55 and those who post abusive forum posts in their own queue. TIC It is good to see people posting who obviously are getting wz pops at 50, for 2 out of 3 asia - pacific servers the sub 50 pvp pops 2 to 5 times for every 50 pop. Please stop asking for break downs of queues that will further worsen our issues. OR Come to asia-pacific and dominate, that "easily achieved" PvP gear many of you prattle on about is a lot rarer among those getting one match each prime time hour played.
  18. Make sure you buy the moddable (soon to be legacy bound) bracers and belt. Adaptive armor moddable bracers and belt. Very nice thank you. The weapons, while nice do not bother me much, I bought one of each and banked them. On to a full set of 8 smoking wreck speeders!
  19. Basically, pay for games you enjoy. It is impossible for a voiced controlled SWTOR pvp team to slaughter players who are not playing swtor at all. I would prefer people gave it a go and queue but it is your dollar. Some think "casual" players ruin game, some think "hardcore" players ruin games. IMHO, forums ruin games.
  20. Personally I have 3-4 BM+ geared chars and enjoy pvp BUT this above quoted post is the identical story many of my guild members give when totally withdrawing from swtor pvp. It is IMHO, a very common perception of swtor pvp and needs to be fixed or we will have zero chance of a sustainable warzone queue. I do not want pve gear to dominate in pvp, but I would accept bolstering and have my BM/WH gear changed to something cosmetic that can only be gained by pvp rank etc.
  21. I think the hazards should be in the list I can vote MVP.
  22. Please DO NOT limit the number of any class in a warzone until after you introduce cross server PvP. we had 50 people on fleet last night asia-pac primetime, highest we have had in weeks, most were riding about on shiny new black bikes.
  23. Interesting thread, I enjoy the posts from the vendetta gang who announce they are going to be "going after" the gimmick spammer for the rest of the game. While I have sometimes reacted to what I felt was griefing in pvp, over the years my self control has improved. I mostly prefer to play well rather than be suckered into over reaction.
  24. No Eve online while similar in some ways trains in real time, skill use levelling only incremented as you used the skill.
  25. 1997 ish Ultima Online had skills that raised when you used them, not levels. Maybe we could have something like that.
