I'm glad you understand this, can you send a memo to the pugs please? If you don't have a directional issue yourself it really shouldn't matter what is called as long as it is clear and not "weast".

I actually see that far too often. I assume it's shorthand for "Something is going on.... but I don't know where I am"

^ Its rare, but sometimes multiple stealths pop on a guy and pretty much insta-gib him with cooldowns, meaning by the time he stops, types out holy **** grass/snow. You're better off going to the opposing side.

Just wanted to say, I use snow and grass. Cuz if you havent played enough wz's to know which is which you wont be much help when you get there anyway.

Plus if you switch between republic and empire toons often you can get left and right confused. Snow is always snowy and grass is always grassy.

I like how this became an argument about how best to call for help. Anyway, back to dumbest things in wz....

Someone missed the bit about east/west never changing ever no matter where you are on the map, what direction you're facing, or what faction you're playing. Also the ground on the side is not visible from the middle node, so it doesn't matter how green the grass is over there if I can't see it through the wall.

Saying snow and having some teammates think "snow is east" adds a completely unnecessary moment of thought when you could have just said east to begin with.

Four man premade with my guild and 4 pugs on the first day of transfer to The Bastion. We manage to overcome not ne, but TWO deaths right at our goal line, leading to scores and tie the game. The ball resets with 6 seconds left. Random commando grabs the ball turns and throws it away... Right into the hands of an Imp. Time expires. We lose.

Someone needs to tell these geniuses that the WZ strategy guides on these forums are FANTASTIC reads whilst sitting on the throne.

I think that clearly the dumbest things said are when people overestimate their own abilities.

The smartest thing I have ever heard was a high ranked 80+ gunslinger correcting a trash talker on our team when he called the other team "bads".

He suggested the trash talker go fight them away from our fully geared team to check.

I got two and both are in Civil War most of time I will take up the mantle of defending cause most of the time no one else does or its cap and run.

In stealth on my smuggler alone and an agent in stealth come up stuns me and while in stun call for help fight goes for awhile and no one comes I died and well at the spawn someone says why didn`t call inc. I say I did and get a reply saying you can`t wait till there there. I reply with a you can`t call out what you can`t see never mind the fact that they had enough time to get there from mid.

The other was on my commando doing the same started out with me and a jedi knight he says I`m go help mid well he goes dies and takes the speeder back down to the turrent and because I wasn`t running and jumping around like an idiot (and before I got stealth scan) and recently just walked across platform of cap point he looks at me and runs off I call out for help at said turrent he just left. I`m at the spawn point someone says why didn`t anyone call out I say I did then that said jedi says you were afk. Now if I was afk why didn`t he stay there and defend.

Now for the east/west, left/right, and grass/snow the turrents have names if you mouse over them in the mini map it tells you the name of them one is crash site and the other is landing site can`t rember which is on what side.

And Voidstar why aren`t the doors named it baffles me that a company like Bioware with the writers that they have who can come with multple story paths and backstory for any and every object in there games can`t come up with a name for doors on a spaceship.

What would you consider a good name for a door?
