We have heard a lot of talk about SWTOR isn’t marketed as a PvP game, it does still have those elements to it and some players really like it so it would be great to see Bioware do a little more in this area to keep things fun and interesting.
Community Manager Eric Musco had this to say in response on the forums:
Hey Jaiyne,
Good question, Warzone or Arena map, then the answers is unfortunately no. There are no new maps, specific to PvP coming in the expansion.
However, if you are asking about updates and changes that affect every second of PvP coming!
As a reminder, we will be streaming tomorrow to showcase Disciplines. Then at some point in the coming weeks, we will do a secondary stream talking all about those global combat changes we referenced above.
Hope that answers the question!

So while the news is disappointing, at least we do have an official answer and we’re not just sitting in the dark wondering what will happen. Players can now update their expectations accordingly but it’s definitely frustrating for people who were hoping to see some world PvP with this update and to be able to use the new skill Disciplines in PvP areas. So not quite what everyone was looking for but perhaps it is a step in the right direction.
Thoughts?
