So I like all of the warzones but voidstar is the best. I feel like when you queue for PvP you should be able to choose voidstar, Novare coast, Civil war, or Huttball.

Anyone else agree?

i agree.

But no one would play huttball

or all would play huttball except ones who can't understand it.

As much as I really want to diminish the pool of players and lengthen queues even more...

 

If people really want this than fine, as long as it isn't at all offered for rated.

use search tool.

 

Any WZ you enjoy would be ruined by being able to pick WZs.

 

Balance is achieved in each WZ because all classes are forced to play them.

 

Soon as you can pick, each WZ would suck immensely.

Plenty of people like huttball. Plenty don't. It polarises opinion (if I wanted to stir, I'd add that people who like PvP like huttball, but...).

 

I can see why people want to choose their warzone map, but I think the current system is probably for the best.

 

a) personal reason: I like the randomness, you get a range of maps, it keeps it a bit fresher and don't have to think about it. Not your favourite map? Get on with it. Lots of people start by hating huttball (so confusing!) but come to love it after playing a bit and working out what it's about. They'd never learn the wonder of huttball without being thrown in a few times.

b) more class balance. Allow WZ choice and people would be driven to pick specitfc team combos for maps. Now they have to pick teams with a chance at any map.

c) shorter queues. Subdividing the playerbase by which map they're queued for will lengthen queue times for everyone (including those who don't pick specific wzs) as it will take longer to fill each queue.

d) If you object so srongly to the map you find yourself in, then you can always leave. Though please do this as soon as possible, to allow backfill before the match starts so your teammates who want to play aren't disadvantaged

Huttball is my favourite Warzone map, then Voidstar, then Alderaan Civil War, then last and certainly least Novare Coast.

 

On my Sniper & Sin alt, Huttball Is just so awesome to play. I was in a Huttball match today with my Sin and managed to score twice by simply Force Pulling the enemy Ballcarrier into the fire pit, getting the ball when they died and simply running over to their goal line. Fairdue I was attacked during those times, but I managed to score regardless.

No way random warzones are working as intended. Imagine huttball with nothing but tank jugs, sin hybrids and sorc healers for pull, that does not sound fun at all. Edited October 31, 2012 by cycao

No. Just no. It's random and that's the way it should be. No exceptions.

and if you would que up for huttball with Slinger/Sniper or Merc/Commando there would be rage.

If they don't allow us to choose our WZs a WZ preference system would be nice. Here's how I would set mine:

 

I prefer to play Huttball and don't prefer to play Voidstar.

 

The system would take into account the que'd players' preferences in deciding which map to pop, skewing the randomness in favor of the collective preferences.

 

But if given a chance to choose, I would play Huttball exclusively.

i agree.

So very very very true

OK you all have good points. I want to choose but it would be really unbalanced. Juggs all over the place in Huttball, Snipers in voidstar ugh. This would not work. Btw what do you all think about the NEW warzone coming up? What willl it be like?

No.

 

If we are to divide the queue pool, there are better things to do that with.

This, also I love huttball most and voidstar is the worst cuz I can't clone myself to be on both sides, atleast in civil war and novare coast I can keep track of where enemies are and have time to react

Edited November 12, 2012 by iDraxter

There simply aren't enough players, nor WZ's, for this to be plausible.

I wouldn't mind having a separate queue for this. It could even allow for scrimmages.

 

 

But only if it doesn't give comms, credits, etc. Otherwise Huttball would be nothing but Shadow/Guardian/Sage/Sentinel Pre-mades farming comms.

or all would play huttball except ones who can't understand it.

 

No huttball is retarded

I wish we could choose - why not? If everyone wants to play a certain wz then that is obviously more popular, don't force people to play wzs they don't like. I like em all (hey Huttball is actually really good apart from the grating commentator voice over) except for the hypergate wz which is just badly designed and not fun to play. I don't want to play it and I don't think I should be forced to play content I don't want to play.

Give us the freakin choice BW!

Nope. It's awesome.

One game where playing as team is most valued, not highest number of pt/vanguard/smashmonkeys.

Im fine with the current randomized map system, as long as we have the option to freely leave the warzone.

 

That said, i'd argue that an option to exclude warzones in a scaling system, for example exclude 1 wz per 3/5/7/9/etc WZ's implemented to the game, would be a nice addition.

 

If one or more warzones gets excluded by an overwhelming majority, there's a reason for that. And the more warzones we get, the less we will get to play the maps we like the most.

So I like all of the warzones but voidstar is the best. I feel like when you queue for PvP you should be able to choose voidstar, Novare coast, Civil war, or Huttball.

Anyone else agree?

 

Sounds ideal but for a few reasons I don't think it should be implemented as things are now. Wait times, class stacking, maps dying off or getting loaded up due to trends, I think would be prohibitive issues.

I freaking hate Voidstar and actually prefer Huttball or the Novare Coast. To be able to at least check all of them but Voidstar would make me very happy. But for those who like the random function, there should still be that option as well. I just don't like going into a game that I am going to immediately hate and I'm sure my teammates would appreciate having people that are 100% into the game mode they are playing.

I would never play hypergates ever again. That WZ is lame and boring. I'd be in huttball 24/7 Edited May 6, 2013 by SOULCASTER

anyone know that feel when all they want to do is play one damn huttball game on their jugg, and they log in and cycle through 2 hours of WZs and get no huttball games on their jugg, then switch characters to operative and first pop... huttball.

 

dem feels.
