top 5 warzones

[DreksOrden]

this is a list of my favorite warzones with 5 being the worst and 1 being the best if you have a different opinion post it below

 

5. Novare coast- By far my least favorite warzone! this is the only one I despise in the bunch and its because of how stupid it is! it is basically a weird overcomplicated version of Alderaan!

 

4. Voidstar- I like this warzone for the concept but the way it plays out is kinda stupid. I don't like how you cant close the bridges andlser doors in the 2nd and 3rd rooms while on defense but aside from that my biggest problem was that it was copy pasted from WoW.

 

3. Alderaan- this one involves a lot more strategy than the last two mostly because controlling one turret does do damage to the enemy (hence why it is higher than novare coast) and the fast access to each area makes for fun gameplay. Unfortunateley its also a copy paste from WoW so its still number three.

 

that's my opinion on the best and worst warzones if you have a different list please post below

 

2. ancient pylons. This level is one my favorites because it is almost purely an arena battle which is AWESOME! I cant help but to feel that there is a routine to this one though since besides a few straglers most people will go to the same pylon (the one on the left of your spawn area). one thing I don't like is that pylons have to be captured meaning that the other team can swoop in at the last second and steal your pylon! its a gimik that I would like removed but that's mostly because it happens to me more often than it should.

 

1. HUTTBALL!!!!!!- this warzone is my favorite because of how detailed it is. there are multiple levels deathtraps and plenty of tight areas making for awesome street to street fighting. out of all the warzones this is the only one that I think needs to be remade because having multiple huttball arenas would be awesome! And with the release of darvannis as an op planet maybe well get a new arena (perhaps with a sarlacc pit trap!)

1. Huttball...

 

Only one I think is worth a crap.

[Skyhigh]

lol, top 5 out of 5? GG

4. Hutball- I really hate this warzone [Played this to much on my old server, doesnt help the matter]

 

3. Ancient Hypergate- After the pass couple months of getting this warzone, 6 times or more in a roll. Make me really dislike this warzone.

 

2. Voidstar- Great warzone.

 

1. Novare coast/Civil War- No reason really, just love this two warzones

1. Voidstar - I don't get the hate. I know that this one can be a massive stalemate, but it is the closest thing to a Team DeathMatch that we have. TDM FTW. Also a lot of heroic individual effort is required to prevent planting. I seem to get the most XP out of this one, which is awesome on x2 XP weekends.

 

2. Hypergate - This one requires teams to pay attention and not get lazy - else stealth cap. The team with the best comp doesn't necessarily win.

 

3. Huttball - I have to mute my audio at the start of this one. The announcers get really annoying over time. The map is very well done. Another plus is that this is the only map where there are no nodes to guard.

 

4. Civil War - I like the concept. It's just epic turret guarding. I seem to get stuck guarding most of the time because nobody else freaking will. At the start of the match when we land on the platform, I stop to see if anybody is going grass/snow, see everybody go mid, lament, and go guard by myself. Then, inevitably, I get jumped by 2-3 stealth and then chewed out in chat by the same *ahem* "fellows" *ahem* that completely ignored it in the first place.

 

5. Novare Coast - Sometimes it can take a while before either side takes two turrets, thereby dragging out the match even longer. The match doesn't really start until then. Theoretically, this could go on forever. More epic turret guarding, more of the same poor saps guarding, more of the guarding saps getting chewed out. Nothing about this is fun. I think that this map produces the most all-around rage.

5. Voidstar - I absolutely hate this warzone. Pretty much every normal warzone is down to one player's mistake and you simply can't be everywhere at once to make up for it.

 

4. AHG - People in normals don't get the concept so you'll have players on farm, people who are running orbs although a 2-cap is required etc etc. You lose braincells playing it.

 

Shared 3: Novare/CW - They play almost the same way in normals and in nine out of ten games you'll have team mates overestimating their own abilties when they're trying to "hero" offnode. Works in 1 out of 100 cases. It doesnt matter if the enemy team is equally stupid and we still win, it's frustrating for me to play that way. I guess it's leaning somewhat in Novare's favor, the nodes have better LOS possibilties.

 

1. Huttball: Can be extremely frustrating in normals too (when everyone on your team is allergic to the ball and choose to become pit fighters instead) but still fun. The good thing about going up against significally better teams in HB is that it will be over quickly, in contrast to the other maps where you have to sit through 5-10 minutes of hell.

 

All maps would be significally better if there were player ratings and you didnt have to play with idiots all the time.

[Technohic]

1. Huttball

2. Voidstar

5.. Civil War, Novare Coast, Hypergate

 

Hutball and Voidstar do not have the capture node/defend off node playsttyle so much. (obviously there is an off door that isn't always getting attacked in Voidstar, but at least half the match, you will be engaged)

 

Hypergate could have been a 3 as is due to there being a fight to be had, but the derps kind of keep it from realizing its potential. Would have been an easy 2 if the orbs were passable to make it sort of a hybrid form of Hutball.

5) Voidstar- my least favorite by in wow was strand of the ancients, I always opted out of that one. It's no different in Tor, I just don't like the warzone

4) AH- love this warzone but the repetition of how many times in a row I get this warzone to pop has made it dull to me

3) CW- I loved Arathi Basin and Battle for Gil'Neas, so anything like it really excites me.

2) NC- plays like CW, except that at any given time, the tables could turn and you can come back with a victory from what looked like an absolute massacre.

1) Huttball!- I love sports, my favorite being Hockey, so what better warzone for me than a digital hockey, where you run around the arena and beat the hell out of each other while trying to score? Love Huttball. Always have, always will.

[Kegparty]

1 HUTTBALL only game that actually gets exciting and can swing from a loss to a win in 3 min

U do realize hockey isnt a real sport right? ESPN only airs highlights of it to give people a chance to go get a beer or go to the restroom. Also they have to fill up time between Darts highlights.

 

Hockey is figure skating nothing more.

Sure it is. In fact the only sport that requires more stamina is soccer. It's even been said that hockey has one of the hardest things to do in sports, which is stick handling while skating. To each their own I suppose, but I love hockey, and the sports I don't like (Basketball and Soccer) I still respect because I understand they require skill to play.

[SlimsPicken]

#1 Huttball.

 

The rest quite frankly, suck.

[Azarai]

5. Huttball with a team full of mercs/PTs in BM/WH gear

4. Huttball with a bunch of dps heroes

3. Huttball with the only decent ballcarrier a marauder but no heals

2. Huttball with a jugg tank but nobody willing to respec heals

1. Huttball with jugg tank/pocket heals and at least 1 sorc that knows how to use their pull

 

That about sums it up

Darts requires more skill than Hockey...

I like you.

 

The way I figure it, the worst game of huttball is better than the best game of anything else.

[DarthOvertone]

1. Huttball

4. Huttball

5. Huttball

 

Huttball is pretty much the only reason I still queue for PvP in SWTOR. When I get back to back Huttball pops, I actually chub...no lie.

[Master-Nala]

1) Voidstar - Love it, don't get the hate

 

2) Huttball - Love this almost as much as Voidstar.

 

3) Novare - Of the node defending games, this one at least isn't over till its over

 

4) Hypergates - Node defense with running fla...err orbs to the node...ugh

 

5) Alderaan - The worst of the bunch by far. Boring node defending and the mechanics create the potential for hopeless odds very early in the match.

Man, out of all the warzones in the game.

there are 5 i like the most.

[DroidDreamer]

Hutball.

 

^ only reason I play this game.

[FrankyFin]

huttball could be a standalone subscription based game, id pay.

 

2: novare coast: nice open field to play in and more balanced than alderaan.

3: alderaan: i actually like it except the obvious downfalls of it (speeders to side turrets = horrible .. and capping takes maybe 1-2 seconds too long).

4: hypergates: its a cool map, if most of your team understands the concept

5: voidstar: well i do like that similar to huttball, a couple good people with the right classes can sometimes do some awesome stuff in pugs (running through it ^^). at 55 its like a deathmatch at door 1 or 2 a couple times too often though, no.
