Topic: Favorite Maps
How would you rank the FS maps in terms of fun factor for you?
Here's my ranking:
1- Endor Strike Team: This map and its gameplay take top honors from me. This twist on the push style of gameplay is exceptionally well done and requires more strategic decisions from both teams than your average BF map. Also, I just love the probe droid.
My only criticism is some of the flag capping tricks that were likely not intended by the devs and need to either be counter-able or removed, especially since they allow the capping of the imp's most critical flags.
2- Escape from Hoth: Great idea to make a map off this scenario. I'm not aware that it's been done before. While it would be nice to be able to manually control the star destroyer's turbolasers, overall an outstanding job.
3- Battle at Taloraan: I'm not familiar with this battle in Star Wars canon, but this all out space battle map has a awesome amount of potential once more players start joining the ranks. Without more than a handful of players on at a time (and players who have more tactical sense of bots for a change) it's hard to judge though. One thing that does mar the playability is the cap ship spawn bug
4 and 5-The two Tatooine maps: both these maps provide an average amount of fun for me, though some parts are more enjoyable to fight through than others. Again, I can see them becoming more enjoyable once we have numerous players and squads fighting down the narrow dusty streets. The rare memorable moments on these maps were indeed when we had a dozen or so players. When you have only 2-5 players on, it becomes a relatively fun ambush game at best and a ATST whining party at worst, particularly on the nearly empty 64 player servers with 3 walkers on 1 side and none on the other.
