Darth_Slaine Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 (edited) And if not, why?I wish I was good enough at the damn game to be able to bluff my way through a believable RP scene. Unfortunately, I tend to die in the fire. Edited January 10, 2012 by Darth_Slaine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huttball was created specifically to allow players to queue against their own faction, in order to keep queue times down. The reason you have not seen any Republic players yet, and are stuck playing Huttball, is because the Empire outnumbers them on your server. Almost every server has more Empire players, as I understand it. Might not be so good once BioWare puts in open-world PvP incentives. Anyway, the alternative is you sitting in queue for 45+ minutes waiting for a game against the Republic. I'm not a huge fan of Huttball, but at least I'm not waiting around in queue for very long to PvP. -Macheath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arcaspiff Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I was going to, but it seemed a little too cliche. I may still have it be a small part of my character. I love Huttball so far. its very intense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the classes more, and have plenty of targets to shoot at in both world pvp and warzones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Huttball so far. its very intense. I can't agree with this statement at all. Too cliche? Cliche is going to be the Sith that stands around all day demanding you bow down to him because he's a Darth (his title even says so!). Cliche is going to be the Agent who sits in the tarver-- Oops, I mean Cantina, all day telling about how he's a 'secret double agent' and that his 'super secrets' shouldn't get out. Cliche is going to be the bounty hunter who bagged the biggest, baddest baddies that ever badded the bad in universe. My Bounty Hunter is not going to be a bounty hunter. He's going to be a Huttballer. I don't see how that is going to be cliche in the slightest. Probably going to actually be one of the few. We'll see.

I was considering using my BH as the Huttballer too... but, as I said, I fail at the game. Noob. Real professional Huttball players die in the acid. It never killed Syd Barrett!

Still Huttball seems to me like the kind of game where you'd want protection over mobility, especially if your life is on the line. That said, the Bounty Hunter abilities do look like the exact kind of thing you'd see in a huttball match. A Jedi or Sith swinging their flashlights and force powers in a huttball match? Not so much... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guildrum Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 I plan to once I get a couple of serious characters developed. I already have chatted with other Huttball enthusiasts on Rotworms vs. Frogdogs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xontier Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Frogdogs every time! I agree, Frogdogs all the way simply because that was the team I was on during my first huttball match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_Slaine Posted January 10, 2012 Author Share Posted January 10, 2012 I agree, Frogdogs all the way simply because that was the team I was on during my first huttball match. My first team was Rotworms... but who wants to tell people they are a Rotworm? Frogdogs sound like they would have a much nicer line of merchandising.

arcaspiff Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 I think I agree with you now that you mention it. I just figured as soon as Huttball was announced everyone would be like "ZOMG! I RPZ AS HUTTBALL QB!" But you know I have not seen it. Though I think I still want to remain a Bounty Hunter, So as such I could maybe go with the Former pro, stepped away from the game for a while, began bounty hunting. Got the huttball itch again and is coming back to it, to find the game a little different than when he once played. I really do enjoy the excitement of Huttball, and im working on a video about it. Also, Rotworms have the better logo. I hope Bioware makes huttball team shirts for sale. I'd rock a Rotworm shirt all the time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
