CourtneyWoods Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 In the Novare Coast player-vs-player Warzone, opposing forces battle for control of three mortar turrets that overlook a strategically vital beachhead. Control of the turrets means control of the beach, which very well may decide who takes control of the contested world of Denova!

KepavEgi Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 The warzone looks awesome. As for the video, I liked the use of the TFU theme at the beginning. Lastly, the new sorcerer armor looks like the banshees from ME3, which I doubt is coincidental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senga_J Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 (edited) Looks to be more balanced than previous warzones. And at least you get partial credit for captures if you get interrupted. That was really annoying in the other warzones when you didn't... Edited April 6, 2012 by Senga_J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirdthestrill Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Looks fun. Can't wait for the whole thing to come out. They should do a dev walkthrough of the new operation... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Costello Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 So this is Empire vs Republic and not some awful fight clubbing mess that Hutt Ball is. Thats good news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matziq Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I've played this on PTS and I love it. Please make more warzones like this. This is my favorite wz so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lpsmash Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Is that a reworked civil or what? I'm having trouble understanding how you capture a point. Is it like EotS (from WoW) where you need some people spending time there and no clicking on a node? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleTom Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 You click the node to capture. There's a computer at each of the three points that you click on and there's a timer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theeliteninja Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I think it should be about how many people are there, none of the gametypes nor ilum are like that. It does look good but it is almost like another civil war. I would like to see a CTF in the future. Is there any plan for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guildrum Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 So then how does one win? Is it like Civil War with a new skin? I wouldn't complain over that, but I am wondering if it does work like Civil War, or if it has an entirely different objective... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shode Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I like it. It's like Star Wars meets Omaha Beach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus the 3 bases are in a triangle. Edited April 6, 2012 by theeliteninja Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, is it in a new skin then, with them in different places for different strategies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benuvil Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Still waiting for an MMO to come out with a very straightforward PvP setting. Slaughter count warzone would be so good. First team to 50 kills wins. The beauty of the plan is it's simplicity, dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blisst_uNF Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I would like to see a CTF in the future. Is there any plan for that? I certainly hope that if CTF style gameplay ever gets implemented.. the "flag" is a droid who follows you through the warzone back to your base. I would like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On topic, Novare Coast seems a little closer to LoL's Dominion map which I loved, but I am disappointed that the new warzone is essentially just Alderaan v2.0.

Oogatang Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Not to be a negative nancy but what are the differences compared to the other capture and control they have? Controlled turrets will be shooting at a beach front instead of ships? Did I miss something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterBlackJack Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 (edited) Not to be a negative nancy but what are the differences compared to the other capture and control they have? Controlled turrets will be shooting at a beach front instead of ships? Did I miss something? The difference is this is Alderaan mixed with Tug of War. In Alderaan you only need to hold one point after a given time to win. In this one you actually have to have at least 2 points captured in order to do any damange to the other team. The other main difference is that the more people you have on the node the faster your team can capture the node. (HINCE WHY I SAY ITS HAS SOME TUG-OF-WAR ELEMENTS TO IT) Also the area is much bigger and has more z axis where smugglers and agents can entrench themselves and do serious damage. So yes its very similar to Alderaan but there are also features that make it much different. EDIT: one more difference is it saves your progression in capturing the node. So if your team was only halfway through capturing it it will still be halfway Edited April 6, 2012 by MisterBlackJack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
