Same Faction PvP?


RetPaladin

Recommended Posts

I heard that Bioware is adding same faction pvp, i.e. repub vs. repub and empire vs. empire. Is this true? If so, I'm feeling very angry over it. I don't want to fight my own faction. The point of PvP for me is defeating the Sith in combat. I might stop PvPing altogether if this happens.

Unless you are on a role playing server, I can not imagine why it offends people so such to fight their own factions. It's not like it affects any part of the storyline for any of the classes. Being on a role playing/PVP server myself, it does not bother me in the slightest. BW has talented enough writers that they can rationalize the matches. I fully support anything that can reduce que times and give people variety at the same time.

Because unless you are playing upon a dominate side, we don't need to fight ourselves because we have an endless supply of the enemy faction at our finger tips just waiting.

I don't want to fight a match against the republic because they're my own brethren. I don't want to be killing my own side when the war is against the Sith, not against our own faction. I would never play a game where I kill members of my own country, why would I do it on here?

having 2 seperate factions is on PVP, and PVE servers, not just Role playing, whats the point of even having factions? Nothing affects the story line, your decisions don't matter, apparently choosing a faction doesn't anymore either. It bothers me in more than the slightest. They could write whatever they want to rationalize what ever they want to, still doesn't make it right. I don't need to get in instantly a couple mins isn't long to wait for a few more opposite faction members to que up. there needs to be an opposite faction que

 

 

I have a bridge I would like to sell you.

 

Cheap too!

 

They added it. where's my bridge?

I missed something. Huttball was like this since launch although now they added the rest of the WZs.

 

I love playing my Imperial toons and I think they are really the cooler faction but I rerolled republic. One of the big reasons was always having to fight your own faction in Huttball due to lack of Repubs. And if you have too few Repubs you get a TON of Huttball WZs.

 

After rerolling to Repub I never play same faction and I get a great variety of WZs not just the same ones over and over. And its kind of cool playing the underdog side.
