Agree 100%. We laughed at how ridiculous the PvP was the whole time we were trying it. No skill, zergfest deathmatch.

Whats worse is when one side dominates the other sides leave so its very boring.

I'm in closed beta. They wiped all the toons yesterday and the bot to give free level 10 gear isn't there as promised.  I'm almost done the entire story and all non bugged red/gold quest 55 hours /played.

red/gold quests?  really.  that's a new way for labeling calling content out for someone who put that much time in the game.

btw - entire story plus all missions is more than 55 hours played.

I have a zone and 1/2 left, so 15 more hours max, if I don't rush. Unless there is some crazy 20 hours worth of final mission type junk, which I doubt.  In fact I would have done it much faster if so many quest were not bugged, some were broken which stalled me, but others would just bug out and I took the time to test it, for instance a spawn I needed to kill kept glitching so I ran off and reset it 10 times before it was fixed.

PvE is OK for a single player MMO, I don't care much for the instances as the ui, combat scrolling text, and boss animations are pretty bland. Maybe that is why I don't care for the PvP, I have no clue what the other guy is doing aside from building and spending and in the end gear or a couple of stuns will win.

I doubt you did 6 full zones in 55 hours, but since there is no way to prove you are lying, you are free to say anything you want.

Yeah but again it was beta, no reason to stay and defend. In live there is every reason to defend due to the mark distribution system.

No people wont stay and defend if they are being rolled by one side.

It won't be a zerg fest once people have more than 3 days to play it and more than few skills open in the tree.

When people are supposed to get there for real or are QL10 and have more options people will have more strategy.

But it probably doesn't matter to someone who has no intention of playing (or has never played) and is just here to bash it.

this, also, when the cabals enter the PvP, it is going to be far more organized...

I can see for exemple: Illuminati cabals working together so they make each one of them enter PvP in a time of the day to keep total control of the PvP bonus 24/7. so the PvP starts to be cabal x cabal x cabal during each organized time spam.

Dragons and Illuminati starting quest was introduced only at weekend #3 (correct me if I'm wrong). Meaning that all players who played throughout all weekends were likely to be templars, and likely to have explored the pve content already, leaving only the new content to try out during weekend #4. 

Fusang was overcrowded with templars and that is why we had no chance to try some balanced skirmishes or strategies (well the strategies mostly because no1 cared I guess). We can claim today that fusang will fail or Fusang will be good, in a few week we will be able to brag about our foreseeing powers and say "I told ya!!!" but the truth is that we have no way to know how it will fare.

On a side note: After 20 minutes in there, in reply to someone who was yelling aloud something like "This is f...g awesome" and "best pvp ever" I dared to answer in chat (general or faction, can't recall) "It looks like a zerg fest to me". You can imagine the hate all Fanbois threw at me. That's probably personal opinion but I agree that, at least during open beta, Fusang was just a zerg of players moving around, or at least when I was in.

This doesn't mean it will be the same once cabals, faction balance and gear balance comes into play.
