It's East/West. . .NOT Left/Right. . .NOT Grass/Snow

I get so tired of having to 'guess' at what teammates are trying to communicate in a warzone.

Half the time people mean the 'left side' of the map when they say 'left' and half the time they mean 'left out of the gate'. It really is becoming to be an issue.

When protecting middle, I shouldn't have to memorize which side is snow and which side is grass, and I shouldn't have to walk from one side to another(front/back) to check while I'm guarding mid.

Come on people, East and West(map directions) is not that hard to learn, it's like your left and right hand, just make a correlation.

neither is grass or snow.

grass or snow is actually much easier..

I start to miss the days when i used to shout at the chat INC stables INC Lamber mil INC gold mine

P.S people still didnt care much but they all knew which place i was talking about withought a doubt

Thank you!!!

East/West is far easier than grass/snow. It's also good because using East/West also translates well into Voidstar, where once again Left/Right can become meaningless, and grass/snow is worthless.

Why people would choose anything else is beyond me.

If confused it is pretty easy to bring up your map for just a second and see where people are at. If its defense you should know (assuming 2 turrets) which one you were holding anyway. When I am part of a group guarding middle I wait up the ramp to the side we have so I can jump out the back the instant help is called.

If it is about assaulting one or the other you can pull up your map and see where people are clustering up, then just head towards the crowd and follow.



Funny you use alderaan as the example as I have seen far more people getting things bass-ackwards calling out a side in voidstar, usually at the very first room.

They could easily paint one door red and the other green that way it would be easier to tell.
Take as an example Strand of the Ancients since the idea for Voidstar is derived from that.
Each and every gate HAS a different coloured crest on it and thats how people differentiate them when someone yells tanks at green people rush to assist green yada yada yada.
With that said it would be a lot easier if Void doors were to be painted different colours or something like that.

Right. And this was the warzone(voidstar) I just had this issue with. I just kinda got off topic with the grass/snow comparison.

It's just a good habit of keeping everything uniformed when it comes to this. There's really not need to have to think of certain 'incomings' said different in each different warzone.

I know, I'm just ranting. It just gets frustrating and there's just no need for it(at least that I've been told).

Fully support this thread!

Seriously, there are times where I wanted to just bang my head on the keyboard. Incompetent players plus no sense of direction make for a loooong hopeless Civil War WZ. It's better to not say anything at all sometimes so people don't get more confused and HOPEfully they can be smart about which way to go at the start.
