People doing this are making those who can stealth look bad. Like the only way to win is to take advantage of a exploit really. That is what it is. Nothing to do with real player skill and ability.

I remember the first few weeks of Huttball before all the tricks and exploits rolled out. Had some fun. Now it isn't fun. It is more like a chess board and you need to possition your pieces for checkmate.
The first few weeks of Huttball most people didn't have a clue what they were doing. Many were still learning their abilities so it was pure chaos. But now people understand the strategy and when a coordinated team that understands the strategies meets a pug that doesn't act in unison, game over, as it should be. It is a team game. The better coordinated team with superior execution should win. Everyone should be using all of their abilities. Why not complain about being yanked into the fire by a harpoon or whatever.

If you want to run mindlessly around without worrying about strategy or optimizing your game play that is your right. But complaining about teams that actually try to optimize the skills of their players? Give me a break.

Haha so teamwork is an exploit? I think watching one force user running the ball with no help from anyone else is worse. No teamwork involved in that. Class based warzones wouldnt be as bad if it wasnt the only choice, and if there was no ranking system that discriminates.

Lol, with no help from anyone else?

Was none of your team defending?

Suspected stealther in your end zone?

Patrol the End zone, move back and forth until you find him.

Not too complicated is it....

It was never intended to have a pit to ledge quick score pass and I am willing to bet if it becomes the norm there will be a change to show we are all right in our belief that it is wrong.

And you know this how? Are you one of the developers? Do you have lunch with one? How can you possibly say this and be serious? I play an Assassin and you can bet I stand on the other teams goal line all the time, why? Because most players are too worried about getting medals then actually playing the game and scanning for me. Oh yeah, I also run through the fire using force speed, leaving the mechanically challenged behind. I don't belong to a guild, or have anyone on my friends list, I just tell them in chat where I am going to be and that is that....sometimes they do it, sometimes they ignore me. I say the issue here is chat...nerf chat.

You realize some classes have huge aoe destealths (it destealths even 4m outside the actual circle) shows you never played a stealth class, it is sooo easy to be taken out of stealth.

Sorry, is 5-10m spotting range not large enough? Stealthers are easy to find in the end zone and with two of you, you can find and deal with them with little fuss.

Its not an issue for someone with half a brain.

brb grabbing some popcorn...this is going to be good when the pvp crowd gets to this one.
It's becoming less and less worth debating these types of things with people. Especially the anti-stealth in game crowd. Those ones are by far the most mind boggeling bunch of ***'s ever..
