Wewillwin Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) This forum is for people who canceled their account primarily to the broken PvP system. It's sad to see such an awesome game likely become another pebble in the ocean of WoW because of a broken PvP system, but that's just history repeating itself (Aion, Warhammer, Rift). This was a fantastic game for the story/graphics/leveling portion, but I ding'd 50 a bit late shortly after patch 1.1 and it was nothing but frustration. PvP is nothing but a face roll. In 12 hours of playing the game on a day off, I saw one game that was a winning team by less than 4 points. I sat fighting people in full champs / battle master gear and being completely annihilated. You may have heard some people (ironically) complaining about us complaining about this, saying, "They didn't make this game for PvP, they made it for the story." That's all well and good, but without a solid PvP system, you will keep players fantastically intrigued and having a blast right up until about a month (or less) after hitting 50. I understand that the system was broken the way it was and that fixing it with 1.1 was coming, but consider how unbalanced the game is now to players who are not hitting 50 prior to 1.1. I'm not a hardcore player, just an average guy. I got a job, family, etc etc. So, I ding'd 50 after 1.1 and spent about 24 game hours in PvP and the entire time, I got face rolled in every game, or my team face rolled the other team, but in both situations, I didn't stand a chance against the people who grabbed up full champs and some battle master gear before the patch. Imbalance is a waste of time for normal players and I'll bet you will start to see a HUGE number of people leaving this game because of it. Honestly, I couldn't give you a suggestion on how to fix the imbalance from here, save maybe cross server PvP ques and splitting players up in Valor brackets, but even that might not help. This will go down in my book as another fantastic single player MMO along with Warhammer, Aion, and Rift. To all those players who are going to get personally offended by what I am saying, grow up. I am pointing out the reason I left this game and giving other players who are leaving for the same reason a chance to explain why. Hopefully Bioware can come up with a way to resolve these problems and make the game better for everyone. *Account Canceled* Edited January 27, 2012 by Wewillwin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starbuckx Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Unless you have no life, your going to come up against stronger players then you in any MMO your going to play. This one is actually quite quick to gear up and be on an even playing field thanks to 1.1. (1.1 probably killed the game for a lot of the players that only get a hard on when they have an advantage) The only games that would be good for casuals are ones with no levels and no gear. If anyone knows of such a game please let me know. GW2 maybe might get close but I'm not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnAcuteAngle Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I agree completely. Except that Rift is bad. I think it's alright, lol. I love the class system and the Dev's. Yup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReddNekk Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 splitting players up in Valor brackets, IMHO, that would be a great idea. Are you listening Bio? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone knows of such a game please let me know. GW2 maybe might get close but I'm not sure. I agree. In MMORPG, the emphasis is not really on MMO as you can play solo, but on ROLE PLAYING GAME. You RolePlay, you farm the best gear available to have the best stats. If you're a bit skilled and not a keyboard turner/mouse clicker, you can even more rolfstomped noobs. Getting gear in HL PvP is a joke. Cross yoru fingers and hope to get 10 differents pieces of gear in 30 bags. I'm not kidding. Or you can get only one piece in 5 examplars. Luck rewarding system is BS IMO. If you have no gear, and no skill/keybinds-fast reactivity +teamplay; be prepared to get pwn'd hard by hardcore players (and no lifers that had more time/more luck getting gear) Peace.

Eltohan Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 IMHO, that would be a great idea. Are you listening Bio? Except I see people at Valor Rank 25 with nearly full champ gear and some Rank 45-50 with only one or two pieces. Almost all the time the Rank 50 is going to win even with 1/10th the expertise against the low ranked one. Why ? Cause he had time to learn his class more deeply for a couple more hundred games than the other one, and he doesn't play Fotm Sorc or BH/mercenary Tracer Missile spamming. Tl;dr : Get some skill and learn to teamplay with good healers/dps and get some wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verijan Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 To the threadstarter and all others agreeing: I guess the starter of this thread is one of the famous marauders, jumping into the whole republic crowd, not guarded, no healer, and most important: alone... "But hey, I pay every month, I MUST WIN!!!!!1111 BW nerf all others!!!!" U ever tried playing rock, scissors and paper - and started complaining about your rock, not winning against paper? *** PvP is so much fun played with some mind... Not by hitting the buttons not on cd! Try that. Greetings from germany. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
