Don't know what to tell you, I wish I was making it up. Sat in the 50 queue from like 7-9:30 while doing dailies and got nothing. Switched to an alt and from 10pm - 1am got 4 queue pops, only one of which actually made it the full length.
I see they are working on cross-server queues which is nice. Hopefully it's soon.

Reading the following developer q&a improved my confidence that Bioware is listening:

Perhaps in time the pvp can be salvaged.

artifice is killing me... if there any way to farm specific color crystals?
I'm a dark-side sith, but it seems like when I send my companions out on color crystal missions, they come back with stacks of blues and greens.

Except for the fresh 50 experience (which the upcoming expertise effect flattening should fix), it's sort of great now, except for Ilum which isn't horrible but too zerg-oriented.
I realize some folks with emptier servers are praying for this, but cross-server queues sound like a horrible idea from where I am. People know who's going to be really annoying/tough to fight, who the healers on opposing premades are, what strats your PUG teammates are inclined to use and how you'll all coordinate, etc., already. That's server community stuff. One step forward, two steps back.

Oh I agree on your points. It's definitely a fresh change (coming from WoW Battlegroups) to see the people I pvp with on the Fleet and/or know through repeated matches the Empire I'm playing against. In a perfect world (aka more populated servers) you'd have active single server queues.
Sadly, for my server at least that just isn't happening. The 1-49 queue is stagnant at best, and the 50 queue is completely dead.

Interesting blog. Glad to see they aren't going to allow dual AC's. Dual Specs - I still don't think it's necessary.
Legacy system - I wish they'd be more clear about what their plans are.
PVP cross server queue's- hopefully they will be smart about it and try to match PVP servers with other PVP servers.
Ilum feels unfinished to me - it feels like they wanted to create an AV warzone, but didn't have time to finish it.
Those who think the PVP system needs to be salvaged - what exactly do you want [other than fixing the bugs]? Do you want the same style of pvp system that WoW offers? An RVR area?

yeah... it's a shame that there doesn't seem to be a way outside of RNG to farm red color crystals (since, at least at level 25, that seems like all I'll be able to use as dark-side)

Lol I rarely win civil war so that was a nice surprise. One and only game this morning too - amazing we met haha
Treasure Hunting will yield orange and yellow crystals for neutral-color saber parts. Either that or farm red nodes in the wild.

I just cant figure out PVP with my sith juggernaught. I tried tabing up the closest opponent then charging but they run away and I find myself chasing them while they fire at me. Worse yet in groups, I seem to be running around without my target in range. Hell, Im not even sure where my target went.
Any advice?

If you're tank spec, stay near a healer (or strong DPS if there isn't one) and guard him. Throw taunts at everyone to wreck their ability to kill your teammates. Spam your AOE slow to keep people off cap points. Be the guy holding the door or cap point solo/duo. In Huttball, use leap to move the ball around like crazy.
Note what was *not* on the above list: killing people. You should attack people to distract them from killing your team, or maybe help pile on to finish off a really low-health person nearby. But this is not your primary job in the least, and you certainly shouldn't be running around chasing targets.

If I wasn't so entrenched on my server (Saber of Exar Kun) I'd be playing my operative on Shii-Cho more often.

I picked it up last weekend and have been playing it nonstop all week. I hit level 22 yesterday and have having a lot of fun. Coming from WoW for nearly 5 years I really like the new pace of things.
