lol. So I have to literally stick to the door wandering around, waiting for a stealther.

And if I get targeted by any ranged class, which is almost anyone else, i cant risk leaving to fight them, because I cant see the people at the door.

You people are morons. They wont take action against them because its Bioware's oversight, but its not intended. Keep abusing it for now, but dont kid yourselves that its not an exploit.

You're on a damn team. You're not Rambo, you don't have to go it alone. As a team, 2 people guard one door, don't leave it alone! DUH! And if you can't handle that, because you queue alone and refuse to play as a team cause you're in a group full of randoms, then of course you're gonna lose to an opponent's teamwork...

No, it still does. I tried this in Alderaan, the beam is there, it's what alerted the opponents to our presence. Void Star has no beam on planting on the door, this is the real problem.

Only if you decide to run around like an aimless chicken. You can easily talk in a warzone, that's what the ops channel is for, and say something like "we need a defender as the empty door, I saw a stealthie" and you will always get people covering both doors. Zerg tactics don't work in Void Star don't work unless you have a high level of teamwork. So don't try it unless you have it.

Aka, stand by the doors!

Give it up.

Talking reason when less then a month out people are naturally going to be crying because they don't know how to play well. Solution? Nerf the other people.

That's it, right there. That's the mentality losing you (and me) and everyone games. "I don't know you, so I'm not gonna trust you, I'm gonna kill some guys I feel are important." And then complain when others couldn't read your mind.

This thread isn't about a mechanic that is bound to be changed in the future, this is about Bio-ware's (or at least a GM's) response to a popular topic as of late. They (he) said it's not an exploit. Sure, it's bound to feel dirty to those who don't know about it or how to counter it, but use this time to reflect on their actions, and tailor yours to hinder theirs. This this is the essence of group pvp.

I dont care about this issue.

the issue i care about is the actual exploit hack where they can plant the bomb, you can see them and you cannot shoot them.
