Tacopx Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 No, this isn't MW, keep it to objective based warzones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihateyouall Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 that's what huttball is. Wait, are you saying people go for the objectives? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dubage Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I would be. More verity the better. Not to much of it though, but it wouldn't be bad to let lose every now in then with a head to head death match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hylfnur Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I support it only for solo que vs solo que and premades vs premades only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMKSED Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 They need to add a TDM Warzone. There are already 3 objective based Warzones, time for a Player vs Player objective one. Maybe people will start learning how to play their class then too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew_Waltfeld Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Can't hurt to add it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kshahdoo Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 (edited) Yeah, wouldn't be bad, I think. Deathmatch is the most popular pvp mode in shooters. Why can't it be the same in MMORPG? Edited January 16, 2012 by Kshahdoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MigSebes Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 It would be a nice addition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lerdoc Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Objective based warzones are much more fun. you want deathmatch, go to illum. Unless you are empire, then go to illum and camp all day reps base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beetz Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I think that would be really fun. When you die, you should have to spectate till next round =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arctichax Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Deathmatch isn't really an objective, it's like your bonus mission. The only way this isn't boring is if you don't allow teams and throw 15 people into a ring/arena for last man standing, with no respawns. This is what world pvp is for so that the numbers on any side are always shifting along with the setting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aranha Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I would love a TDM wz with a basic objective of killing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sprudeln Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 A TDM warzone is basically just an 8v8 arena minus the coordination a smaller organized team brings. Allowing premades into this is opening the door for the same kinds of things that make arenas problematic with teams organizing comps based on what is considered imbalanced or "cheesey". In the end it will come down to whoever has the better gear or if they have a healer when you're pugging. This is not to say that a large TDM or "arena", with or without respawns wouldn't probably be extremely interesting and dynamic based on what Bioware has given us so far. There are just a number of items that have plagued the mode in the MMO scene in years past and I would hate to see the PvP in the game get downgraded because the hivemind thought of the masses is upset with the poor balance of one match type.

ZcorpionX Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I love objectives, but being 1-2 going for objectives gets old So a tdm like option would hopefully give them somewhere to brawl, and a nice breathing room for one self. But thing dont think itd sort the none objective players out of obj matches. After all the easiest target to kill is a objective player, as thier more focused on completing objectives. And people like thier kills cheap and easy.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sim-E Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I have to say YES and agree with the OP. All i do is pvp (grinding VL65 after CL 50) a not one time have i say teamwork in a pug pvp WZ. its either premade or bust. SO since ppl wont work together either 1. give us a deathmatch WZ or 2. only reward the victor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vindicare Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Team Deathmatch would be great to have for a Warzone , just to change it up from the usual Objective based Warzone. Some good slaughter fests would be nice to have lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a win/win for PuGs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could make some incentive to queue for random once in a while, but I really, really, really get tired of playing huttball.
