Isn't that like 7/8 advanced classes?

BTW I love Huttball the most even when we lose. It's fun, exciting and just when you think you're gonna touchdown someone yanks you into the fire. Good times. I also like knocking people into fire also.

Huttball. It's capture the flag on crack.

You guys do not get it, huttball encourages class diversity on rated teams, if it gets removed from the queue ALL rated teams will only stack tanks and healers with the occasional marauder and play the SAVE OUTLAST GAME on the other maps, there would be effectively only tanks and healers in the games.
Ye can still type while yer stunned.

The Problem with Huttball is that there is too much of it.

Last night my PVP went like so

Huttball
Voidstar (someone must have quit, and I got added at the end of round 1)
Huttball
Huttball
Huttball
Novare

If it wasn't dominating the rotation, I might enjoy it. Since I see it so much, I am sick of it.

*edit*
fixed
50 Marauder, Sentinel, Vanguard, Mercenary, Juggernaut

It's a long way back to Grandville, but these wonderful devs keep updating my GPS...

Seriously, there is no strategy to this wz; get the ball - pass the ball..../yawn. As a sniper there is no challenge whatsoever here.

PVP means fighting other humans, not exploiting gimmicky fotm op classes to carry a ball!
If you don't fight other players maybe that's why you have such a hard time with Huttball.

my solution: allow us to queue for the WZ we want. i want to play civil war, void star and novare coast; then let me choose only those for my queue. if taht means that i wait longer, so be it. do this and then everyone can play only those WZ that they enjoy.

Rift did this on day one; no reason that it cant happen here. and no reason to wait for cross server queuing. (which will help futher destroy community; but that is for another thread)
No. Have a veto option sort've. Like Starcraft, pick 1 or 2 maps you don't like and it won't put them in the map pool.

Shenoto, Gunslinger. Triferd, Scoundrel.

i like the concept, the execution on the other hand favors certain classes/'team makeups over others beyond the point of simply having a well rounded team.

Some classes get the short end of the stick (like DPS ops and DPS Mercs) but in general I feel like it's really well balanced. Properly specced Sorcs, Assassins, Healing Ops, Juggernauts, Powertechs, Healing Mercs, Snipers and Mauraders do really, really well there and each one adds some utility that the other classes don't bring to the table.

That's pretty damn well balanced. DPS OPs and Mercs don't bring "nothing" to the table either, it's just their job is done better by another class. They are still far from useless though and they're totally viable in huttball. If you actually feel like your class has no utility in Huttball you need to re-evaluate your strategy.
