Drklight Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 I can not stand the fact that no one can que up for certain maps and not other ones. I already know devs say they dont want to but really who the heck wants to be in a arena match with a pug group and who wants to play voidstar or huttball 5 times in a row? Arena should ONLY be ranked matches only never in unranked. also how bow bout some new maps? u guys have been neglectful on that or just lazy. we havent had a new map since 4vs4 arena maps came out and how long ago was that? yet we have 2 new raids and 2 new FPs and the whole solo FPs. Completely ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simcity Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 I'd love an option that lets me decide if I want to do objective-based Warzones, 4v4 arenas, or huttball. I enjoy WZ's much more than 4v4s, but thats just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highsis Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 I actually love area more than other wz and huttball is my least favourite. each to their own, I guess. I want to only play areana and non-huttballs in fact by choie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFoxstride Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Not gonna happen. Too many people would blacklist arenas. And arenas are like BW's retarded child: you MUST play them. That's why they removed 8v8 from ranked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PBoba Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Queshball was a new map since 2.0. Like all maps, it's good when you're winning/competitive. And they put their effort into GSF, for better or worse. The fact they thought it was worth diversifying rather than a new map tells you all you need to know about the population of pvpers, and therefore why you can not choose maps. Only solution is to invite new people to pvp with you. Build the population, choice will come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitroyoshi Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 if u hate huttball idk why you play swtor thats the most genuine pvp it has to offer civil war novare coast arenas and whatever else are bland in comparison and huttball is the only wz that didnt suck in 8v8 rated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lhancelot Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 You can choose what warzones you want to play! Simply quit/exit the warzone as soon as you enter it, and, VOILA! You have chosen not to play a specific warzone? This is impossible to manifest. Your request is denied. Move along now. Next request? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morrolan Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 They aren't going to do it because of queue times, but I'd love a ranked huttball league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlightlySychotic Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 They won't and they shouldn't. Why? Because no one would ever play new maps. When Queshball debuted there was nothing but a torrent of hate for it (probably a bunch of people still going to jump on me for saying otherwise) even though it's just as balanced as standard Huttball. And while Ancient Hypergates isn't my favorite map I think it has more to do with players over-complicating what is essentially a very simple kill/defend mechanic. I've even seen people rail on about how NC is the worst thing ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Storm-Cutter Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 (edited) You must be new here, OP. The PvP team left a long time ago. All we got now is a cat that occasionally wanders over the keyboard in their office when someone inadvertently leaves the door open.

Evolixe Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 (edited) I prefer waiting for an hour instead of having to play an arena. That doesn't even make sense given the average arena takes 15 minutes at most to conclude. If you afk through it even shorter. + After 3 weeks you would come back here QQing about how queues are too long no matter what. And then I'm being extremely generous.

Master-Nala Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 I wonder if you could do this with a "preferred" WZ option. So it would work like this. You could select one or more WZs that you would prefer to play. So for me that would be Huttball, Queshball and Voidstar (DON'T JUDGE ME! ). The system would work just like it does now, except that if there are say 16 who have Huttball selected, then the queue will give them that WZ instead of a random one. If instead there aren't enough people to pick a particular WZ in the queue, but enough to make a WZ, the game just picks a random WZ. What would be the downside of that?

Atrabilious Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 I don't get the hate towards arenas. They're pvp in its purest form! Killing other players. "I just don't like the senseless killing compared to objective based warzones" Do you really like teamwork that much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavatsunami Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Cross server cross faction is necessary for anything like this to not give ridiculously long queues. Even in a game like wow that has both now, picking the wrong ones can increase your queue time significantly(sometimes 2 to 3x). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"I just don't like the senseless killing compared to objective based warzones" Do you really like teamwork that much? I would like arenas more if they were a "how many kills can you get in [X] amount of time" or a "First to [X] number of kills wins," with the ability to respawn. As it stands, the rules of Arenas greatly favor some classes over others. I can't tell you how many poor Mercs/Commandos I see quit after getting blown up in a first round.
