SWTOR: The patch that killed PVP and the Game for ME
Well, that didn’t take long. Patch 1.1 dropped, made some changes in PVP and now it is basically dead at high levels. I was hoping that the PVP would get better as time goes on, but it looks like BW is taking steps in the wrong direction. Already the Imperials are usually outnumbered by a 1:3 ratio on average across the servers. Now with the new patch, high level PVP areas became just farm zones for the under populated. BW released a quick patch to put player caps on the high level zones, but still, the high end pvp is nothing more but a grind for xp and valor points. Check out the link to watch opposing sides make use of a broken system and farm points and gear.
I think I am done with SWTOR unless they come up with a good fix . The bad thing about farming valor is that it gives great gear that makes a huge difference. The WZ system in SWTOR buffs everyone to level 50 , but doesn’t give you the skills/defense/armor. So you have level 11s with HP and Energy buffed to lvl 50 wearing level 10 gear and using level 10 skills trying to kill real level 50s with level 50 gear, level 50 skills.
The PVE is decent (great at times if you’re a big SW nerd like me) but the PVP is just not there. Time to unsub and hope it goes free to play.

So many games, so little time.
SWTOR is a big hit and I have been bitten by the bug. We are currently rolling on Ajunta Pall RP/PVP server as Republic . Come fight by our side!
Also, I have been getting back into CCGs and I am finding some great free ones that are fun to play online and don’t require any real world dollars to be fun and win.
Shadow Era is a perfect example. Signing up is easy and play is completely browser based. They also have an iOS app and Android app to play on the go. Wulven Studios is also moving to print all of their cards for offline play with friends. You can find out more at Wulven Studios. If you do plan to spend money on in game cards, at least buy the physical cards and get matching credits in game. I will have a more detailed post on this soon.
SBEMU Team is still hard at work. I am very excited for what they are going to bring us old timers who miss real PVP and guild sieges. Closed Beta is in progress!. Unfortunately most of the newer games don’t have any real risk in them any longer ::sad face:: .
Happy Gaming!
