A week or so ago I got yelled at for using the wrong "West" and "East" designations. I was basing it on the Voidstar map - which was apparently why I was wrong.

Several people in the group felt that North was the direction you were facing when you started and, as a result, the four cardinal directions changed depending on whether you were on offense or defense.

Generally this is how most people use "Left" and "Right" in Voidstar too. Left means "drop and go to your left" NOT "go to the left side of the map."

They need to add an ability for the WZ leader to kick people out.
That's an idiot response, allowing 1 person control over who gets to stay in a WZ is idiotic.

Now allowing a voting system of 5 votes or more is more in-line with fairness.

Even suggesting what you said shows that you want control over people in a WZ, surprise: it is not YOUR group your mealy auto joined it randomly.

Except what is the north for Republic is actually the south for the Imps in CW. So East for the Imps is actually West for the Republic. Your directions are not absolute. Left is always left and right is always right. If you can't grasp that then maybe you should go back to Kindergarten...

No. It. Is. Not.

If the ship you launch from is located on the NORHT side of the map. Then the LEFT speeder will take you to the EAST turret, not the WEST turret. Trust me on this one.

Both sides take the LEFT base. But only the side that launch from the SOUTH ship will go to the WEST base when going LEFT. The other team will go to the EAST base when going left (as they are assulting the map from the north).

Do i have to draw a picture before people understand the basic concept of north, south, east and west.

If you face NORTH then you will have WEST on your left hand side.
If you instead face SOUTH (as the other team will) then you will have EAST on your left hand side.

Common guys.. You learn this stuff before grade school...

*facepalm*

ppl should just use East and West, too many people are divided on whether left and right are from the map or from your starting position. You can't argue on what east and West are, plus as an added bonus west will always BE west if you play on your Imp toon

Easy fix, turn the maps sideways. Now the doors/turrets are North/South, and left-right will always be "from spawn".
