“The seasonal gear changes don't put everyone on the same level; they put a limit on how far apart the top and bottom are going forward.

One of the reasons we went with many new sets instead of one new set is so that the individual pieces would be earned more quickly. Achieving the best gear is just that, an achievement, and should take x amount of victories. (We think earning gear is fun and pretty standard with the MMO stye play, though we can see where others would disagree and prefer there be no progression in PvP.)

Would you rather have one set of gear that takes x victories to win, or multiple sets of gear that combined take x victories to win? (My point is, it's probably not really the amount of sets, but something else that you dislike, but correct me if I am wrong.)

I'm guessing the achievement of having the best gear - now, this season - and having unique styles - forever - doesn't seem worth the gear resetting seasonally to some of you, and that some of you would like other lasting rewards documenting your success in PvP as well. Yes or no?”

Seasonal PvP = no stability... Full Checkmate: one day the best, next day useless soon to happen with current Vengance / Punchline: one day the best, next day useless. A continual process of time wasting and its repetitive and boring.

Within one day ill spam out replays for the best gear. I wan't to Que 5's and 4's but the matchmaking is slacking aload of pugs running around. We look for pre-mades half the most competitive individuals and groups gone. Alternative "Ok i'll run a few 1v1" = more noobs and lower gear individuals

Now your telling me with the next season this whole episode is going to happen again. That is my lifes story with PvPing. The competitive aspect of it is non existent. The new raids and genuine PvE seems to be in a strong place currently, but PvP is heading down the wrong direction if you ask me. No value or excitement in playing it, good luck to those who haven't purchased replays id be surprised if anyone's finish from only running of weekly lockouts.

“As funny as that would be to watch, it would be one-sided and brutal.

Giggles, the majority of your posts are about "I" and "me." Nothing you say is for the greater good of the community or PvP in general. It seems like you're happy with this system because you can beat on pugs while the premades are gone. You're in every other thread commenting about the exact same things like a cancer and it eventually turns into a nonconstructive poo-flinging contest until people get tired of you. Blatantly put anyone that takes you seriously, in regards to PvP, is an idiot.

As far as this issue goes, developers are ignoring basically the longest running, most experienced and competent players for profit. I just hope when the next season drops, you guys who did replay the gear just drop it altogether.. its an utter waste of time. These seasons are here because they can expect you guys to spend money on replay badges.

I want to take that away. Since this nonsense doesn't work for us, I'm interested in bringing back premade PvP where teams run unmodded cash gear only. Not only will that remove the cost, grind and p2w, but we can be ready to PvP at the drop of a dime with any role.

While im oblivious to the personal problems you two have lol that is my main concern with the PvP there's no competitive aspect to it none what so ever. The seaons give us no stability. I have spammed out replays but when you realize it all the devs are saying to us is either:

1) Spend all your money for the week, within a few months your money would have been wasted.
2) Attain the gear by weekly lockout within 4-5 months, and have one month of using the top tier gear before it becomes useless.”

The main thing is that PvP seasons shouldnt be just to get the best gear. It should be to first get the best gear , then compete with it.
Having it that your only achievement for a PvP season is to JUST get some gear ??? Really tho ..

You need to have some sort of rating system so people can compete for rating using the best gear the get in that season.
I understand SoE is using a format to just make money, but your also suppose to want to make a great game that has a great PvP system in it and not with a broken PvP system.

PvP seasons are suppose to be a "season" ... you know where teams compete to finish on top.
Why make PvP a casual thing ? And not something people should want to work hard for to achieve something other than just gear and feats.

I know Volaron has his guys, Brice, Silver and I have teams. Thrump will probably have one together as well. We can bring in so many players using this.. we'd just need everyone on the same page.”

Tried doing this yesterday. It's run through my mind before but it wasn't until yesterday that it clicked. You wouldn't have to mod, or replay, or keep HT up, or grind. Like you said you wouldn't have to wait for people to gear up, you'd go straight into it.

Spider's on the same page as well. If we get people into it, we generally won't even have to bother with the nonsense they put out. The gear really doesn't matter so long as everyone is on the set and ready to go.

I am going to start trying to get more people on the same page once i get back from vegas. This month i have had to many parties and junk to go to so i couldn't really dedicate time to getting this going but I was trying to plant the seed so it might get noticed before hand. Yziah also has plans to try to set up some stuff in conjuction with this idea to help newer pvp players learn.

So next season..
