Why PvP isn't popular enough

[abzoluut]

Because that's how it is. That and the PvP is boring and doesn't fit in with the story.

PvP might be boring for you, rather subjective of course. I just wondered what exactly it is you do PvE wise. Couldn't see any coil/ex primal activity going on on your char. Or do you run 4-man dungeons only?

I thought you were some PvE monster when I read your comment. I guess you did not even try PvP enough but still wanted to force your premature opinion on everyone just for the sake of it.

They are working on the morale issue and the PvP is pretty balanced. The dev team is already designing new PvP content and I think they're going in the right direction. 2.0 is still a "new" game...Square-Enix is noticing how popular PvP is in general and they are responding accordingly. Give it a few months...this dev team started on a pretty small budget (most of the staff from 1.0 was reassigned or fired) and they're growing because of the success of the game. Does anyone read anything before posting this garbage? They hear us and they're working on it.

How can PVP be boring? You're facing another human, its literally different every time.
You probably just don't care for it because of lack of skill.

The main change I would like to see done to PvP is that they make it so you can't enter if you're a derp.

doable ... if they put in a real personal rating system based on flag captures. defending flags. enemy flag point takeovers. honorable kills based on kills done at flag points. damage done. healing done. drone spawn point. drone kills. and any other stats based on productive actions in the match. that would match players up with other players of equal caliber. it could potentially filter out the derpaholics, such as midfielders. the undergeared. the afk's. and just the all out bads. that way the bads can play with the bads and the players who want to actually, you know, play the battleground, aren't forced to make a premade so their gaming experience isn't ruined by derps who midfield, ditch a flag to chase down ONE random player and other things that bads typically do that make games a loss.

LOL #truth
They should make it so you must be at least rank 10, no wait since frontlines 20

Maybe, but it will make queues even longer.

na I don't think so. if the scaling down of matches actually worked, it wouldn't take long to find 24 competent people out of the entire data center to play.

Someone already posted this, but while it's nice to speculate as to (valid)reasons why PvP isn't done or needs work(like leaderboards, better matchmaking/scaling, etc.), the fact of the matter is that many if not most people playing this game don't like PvP, they don't like the feeling of losing(especially if they aren't in MAELSTONG MIRITE gais!?), etc.

They can do all the things to make PvP as enjoyable as in other games, but, if I might be allowed some plagiarism, "you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink."

Personally, I love both PvP and PvE, and I totally think the rank 30-40 gear and that war horse are worth it, and that's my subjective opinion.
