Worst combat mechanics I have ever seen for PvP. NEVAR!

For me, win, lose or draw, nothing beats a game that has ass-kicking as its focus (even if it's my arse getting kicked!)

Aaahhh, memories of good times with great friends.

If it doesn't immediately play, get Mom or Dad to approve the content warning!

Cannot be worse than swordmaster on sever with delays

Just dropping in to tell you - PvP is horrible in my eyes. Queue times are extremely long (unless you queue in the primtime evenings), there are only 3 BGs, of which basically 1 is perma pop in the first place. PvP gear has virtually no progress (find it good or bad). The combatsystem itself isnt that bad, but on the other hand the whole pvp revolves around AoE and this en masse. Dungeons are quite easy, but 90% of the players i encountered are ridiculously bad. Played like 30 days, had max lvl, very good pvp gear, and finished the first Raid as well (where i got EVERY item slot with high lvl gear too). PvE is fun for a while, but if i look at the game as a whole it gives me nothing that catches me at all

Combat system is exceptional, i really loved it when i played wildstar. Setting - kinda weird, but fun. Locations are neat... The problem is that leveling becomes boring pretty quickly, there is lack of low-level dungeons and bots rule the wargrounds. Ah, and ye - stalker tank is not a tank at all, which is weird. I dunno about raids.

Sounds like one of those horrific fps-shooter-disguised-as-something-else games only a satanic corporation would bother to make.
