Hello everyone, you might remember me from pre launch :D, now I didn't quit Wildstar for the normal reasons, in fact I didnt quit at all, I simply took a break, I left in october. so here are my thoughts on recent stuff.
 
Megaservers: Still great although Warhound isnt looking too great
 
Defile: ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, Lightspire and everything else is just perfect
 
DS40-DS20 soon, wonderful change
 
pvp: Dead and almost gone Bg wise :(
 
Wildstar is just as good if not better than I remember
 
9/10 still	
----
			
And here I was looking for a really good troll post.
 
 
By your topic heading, I was expecting to read a rant from someone who got banned for 7 days after using the garden exploit.
 
 :P
 
 
Welcome back.

Yeah PvP needs some love. :( I actually enjoy the PBGs during peak hours though. o/ Usually just have to wait 7-15 mins for a queue to pop. Of course this is only during peak hours, i also think the PvP costumes have enticed a lot of exiles to queue up.

			We lost a lot of our dedicated PvPers on the exile side, I still see tons of them on the Dominion side though.

I'll give it a 5/10
 
 
That's the best I can do.

I think things are pretty good with the exception of.
 
PvP is pretty dead.
 
And itemization needs work.
 
And medics are pretty buggy
 
But nothing there is a killer for me.

			Yeah I'm enjoying my week back too. Shame to see PvP dead, it's a ton of fun. I dunno enough about it to know what needs to change, though.

			I can understand that people don't like low population and meh itemization, but what's all this about BGs being dead? Sure Rated doesn't pop often but I consistently get into PBGs every 5~10 minutes unless it's like 3 in the morning. Less at peak hours. I think it's more that you guys have the patience and attention span of goldfish and you can't stand to wait a few minutes for a pop.

Pre-level 50 I have yet to see a single one pop in the 3 days I've been back. :(

Oddly, I think that's because you can level in PVP, but a lot of people don't feel the need to level twice.  That means nobody stays in any one bracket long to PVP (a la earlier WoW) and nobody's refilling the layer of alts.  I'm not entirely sure what would have to happen to do that, or if there's even much to do.

I spent most of my WS game time (two or three hours) yesterday at peak time trying to get a single PvP match with my Dominion main character. At max level. It was a waste of my time, even though the estimate dtime fluctuated to "2 minutes" more than once. I wonder if the PVP matchmaking system also tries to balance the PvP ratings of the players in both sides and my rating wasn't actually good enough to be matched with anyone else. Or maybe there's a huge population imbalance. Or my class (spellslinger) was so common that the system couldn't make me fit anywhere. I should try PvP on my Exile warrior main instead the next time to see if this happens again.
 
In any case, PvPing is both reliable and unreliable at high levels, and the reason for this weirdness is hard to determine.
