Harabek Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 On Bloodworthy Reps are farmed IN their mainbase. Not only did you make Ilum impossible to play for Reps, you even made sure that the already bigger Faction now gears in lightspeed. It is annoying to cope with all the millions of bugs that made it into live, but honestly.. No one was able to foresee the problems that the new "PvP System" of yours will bring on Loopsided Servers ? Really ? Or is the main goal to make sure that no one actually plays Reps in future ? And spare me that "adapt" nonsense. At best its 20:1, so far at least 30:1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RealAeiouy Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Don't go in one by one.. Right? Get other republics and go into together. Work on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhameirSarinn Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Ilum is broken. I would be extremely surprised if EA/BIO wasn't already working on trying to come up with a system/idea to revamp Ilum completely. The planet is a complete fail.

Hah, on the contrary, Republic players will either reroll or quit. Look at the World of Warcraft PVP servers, some of them are 99% horde. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amp_ Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 It's the usual developer response in these sort of situations. Things will get changed somewhat quickly if people are gearing up too fast or easy, but will do so at the cost of player enjoyment. We probably could have gotten by without the PvP section of Ilum while they worked on it some more and released it 3-4 months post launch. I think that would have been a much better idea than releasing it and band-aiding it in its current form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nocturnalis Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Don't go in one by one.. Right? Get other republics and go into together. Work on it. Be careful what you wish for. You might actually find that Ilum will be an Imp only hangout. Which means you'll get nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vindianajones Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 (edited) Don't go in one by one.. Right? Get other republics and go into together. Work on it. Pointless. When your faction is outnumbered on the server 3:1, what's stopping the Imperials from doing the exact same thing if you start to bring in enough people to put up a fight? This is assuming that you can even manage to do so. I think you missed the part from the original post where he mentioned that there are so many Imperials there, the Reps are actually getting effortlessly farmed in their own base.

RealAeiouy Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Don't go in one by one.. Right? Get other republics and go into together. Work on it. Seriously... Wait up and group up and make an assault. What on earth were people expecting... It is open world pvp... Imbalances are part of that.. You have to play smart. If you want equally matched sides play warzones, but complaining that sides are not equal in open world pvp makes ZERO sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustinxDuff Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 While I agree it is completely FUBAR you can still get to the PvP zone via mount. Get an ops group going, mount in and **** mid. Better that nothing or until they fix it I suppose.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RpTheHotrod Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 If they don't rollback everyone today, I'm giving up on PVP and I'll HIGHLY be considering unsubscribing entirely. If Bioware pulls this kind of stuff off, I really don't trust them with future content. They may use the excuse that the valor thing was "unforeseeable", but even the change of forcing people to collect stuff from the middle point was clearly a foolish idea. Crafting is borked. PVP is now borked. I'm not sure how much more I'll put up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes imbalances, like 4vs3, 2vs3 is obviously expected. However 30 versus *********** 1 is ridicilous. If you can't understand this then I don't know what to say.

ForceWelder Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 (edited) Two simple words, "Epic failure". Surely these things were noted in internal testing right? But seriously, on my server, the bulk of the PVP Repubs are healers. And what I am seeing in other threads is that healers are losing out on the valor because they are healing and not killing. So even if the Repubs somehow managed to get a large group together to take Ilum, odds are the healers are going to get very disgruntled very quickly and simply say, "to $#%$ with it". No Repubs makes for no open world PVP. At that point it becomes a farm fest for the Imps as they work to get their dailies completed. The Imps then have a PVE way to get their PVP gear. Bioware has taken two steps back today with this patch instead of even one step forward. Edited January 18, 2012 by ForceWelder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soulaufein Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Im sorry this is the final nail in the coffin for the Republic ; not only severely outnumbered but in this game, actually the tremendously overpopulated faction will get geared at least 3 x faster. And any Ilum revamp will take MONTHS, if not expansion material. What is beginning to happen is a disgrace for this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
