This is me currently. I only just starting PvPing a few days ago (rank 8, go me) but I do it just when I have nothing else to do. Bought some of the crafted PvP gear on MB for cheap and started having a go. Going to take a while to save for just one piece of armor though.Quote:

They could do it so you receive a Bonus % to the PvP Exp based on your queue time (the longer the queue before you join a group, the greater the bonus), up to a cap so people won't be encouraged to exploit the system. This way, even if you manage to play 1 match every 30 minutes or so, if you get say 400 XP it won't feel much *that* waste of a time...

I completely agree with what so many of you have said.
I love pvp but the queue times are rediculous. With such long waits in between matches it's become more of a grind and a little side game every 30 minutes. It would be more fun if I didn't have to find something to fill in 30 minutes-ish every other match :(
Seriously and sometimes it's waaay worse..

Boost PvP Exp gain by 50%.
Reduce win-loss reward disparity from 5:1 down to 2:1.
Boom. Done.
This way Rank 40 for pure (100%) winners would take approximately 2,000 victories.
Straight losers (0%) would require 4,000 matches rather than the current 6,000.
Create special achievements/rewards for landmarks every 1k wins after 3k or so. -

I don't think adding more rewards is the solution. People want to play and hate Queuing up so they have to do something about this.

You know... There is this NPC called the OIC Quartermaster, who sells the pvp mark increase action for your grand company. Just sayin. You want increased wolf marks, there you go.

05-31-2014, 07:33 AMTeganLaronReally?! Wow, with the extra 1-5 marks per battle once an hour, I'll be Rank 40 in no time!Quote:

I have time to PvP yes however the long queues make this maddening its not fun to sit around and wait 20+ min to get into PvP. Compared to any PvE queues which are instant.

Seals is not a problem. Unless you spend seals into 2 jobs, you get enough seals to buy the next gear.

05-31-2014, 03:14 PMMupodI don't play on your datacenter, but from experience super long wait times like that are a result of withdraws breaking the queue. If too many 7/8s happen it bugs out and will go on forever until you leave and requeue.Quote:

Those who wants the new gear enough had no problems getting them. -
06-01-2014, 02:35 AMEpistaneThere is no way that someone that started off at rank 1 got to 40 in just two weeks of legitimate PvP. Even when pvp fist came out and we premaded with 3 people/pulling all nighters and winning every match at a queue time of about 3-5 mins (we usually won matches in about 20-30 seconds unless we played another premade which matches got up to usually 5 mins), it still took almost 3 weeks to hit rank 30.. Granted they boosted the exp/marks since then, but queue times have gotten terrible, on average at my rank its usually 10 mins if I'm lucky, upwards to 30 mins on average.. It might be a different story though if they started off at 30.. Even then, one healer I know whos 40 right now spent 3 weeks of legit PvP, playing literally EVERY waking moment all day/night just to hit 40.. and that's with healer queues tooQuote:

06-01-2014, 04:08 AMrappaCoff coff wintraders coff coff unless he was rank 30, but i meet rank 30 who played with me, and they are close to rank 40, It's imposibru than a legit player can buy 2 gears and complete another one.Quote:

06-01-2014, 04:21 AMBloodbDo you have anything to back this up or are you just speculating? I'm asking because in the instance where i posted that screenshot the queue popped before 130 minutes. It was a terrible long wait.... but the queue did pop after more than 2 hours of patience ^__^Quote:

I don't think the rewards are the problem but doing the same fight with same music in the same room over and over is just not that fun.
If pvp had more to it then people would try it more than once.
Seriously they should add a lot more variety in there in the way battles are set up. -
06-01-2014, 02:20 PMMupodBy cheating. I guess I don't 'want it enough' to be a scumbag.Quote:

I've tried it enough to know it's not worth the long wait. As much as I want the gear, I don't like waiting an hour or more in a queue just to get shit for wolf marks even if I win.

06-02-2014, 03:18 AMEpistaneIt's the same thing in WoW, about 4 arenas and originally only had 2-3 arenas to start with.. Only difference is they have a ladder/rating system and they also have battlegrounds to help gear up for arena.. Which we will soon have aka "Frontlines" and I'm sure they will eventually add more maps for wolves den.Quote:

They are adding variety but you have to give them time, the game is only like 6 months old? And take into consideration this is SE's first serious attempt at PvP
