Thoughts on Darkstar?

I was just wondering about everyone’s thoughts on the map, since I haven’t played it yet.

I wouldn’t ask the question just yet, most people who play it are going to say stuff like “it sucks” “its unbalanced” and “can 343 make a decent map for once” because its so new and no one has explored the map enough to play it to its full ability

Alright.

i for one, feel this is the best warzone map out!. i love the fact that the middle of the map has you know. actual cover!. all i ever wanted from warzone!. escape from arc. is a joke because you can shoot from one base into the next. and no wiggle room for the people getting shot at. stormbreak is a joke for the same reason. and summit, same issue. and on top of that, that particualr map. is a LINE. camping your base. and pop shoting people as they spawn in their base. is NOT good map design, in my eyes. yes you can kinda do that on this new map. but it is alot harder because of how much cover is in between the bases!. A plus in my eyes

Good.

Felt like there was no structure too it but that could be just because nobody knows the layout of it yet. People were just running around clueless. There was no “pushing back” the other team since they were everywhere. Felt like a 24 player FFA in that sense.

I had to dashboard 4 times to get it after getting apex all those times but it was worth the wait. Darkstar is pretty sweet imo. Main buildings are about the same as stormbreak but the layout is pretty unique and cool. New bosses were sweet. Overall im pretty happy with the job 343 did. Urban is also back now

Most of the bosses as the moment are broken, in that you can kill them instantly, with a vehicle splatter. For a infantry “focused” map, they did a terrible job on how to engage the bosses. Just spawn a wraith and boost into the hijacked mantis boss to instantly splatter the pilot, leaving the mantis in an almost perfect condition where it will sit there until destroyed or the game ends. Same goes for the hijacked warthog. The rest of the bosses, except for the wraith captains, can be easily splattered with a ghost, excluding Warden, of course, and Endurance of Will. Fix this and the map will be partially playable. Another issue is you have perfect line of sight of every base from both the armories and the fortress. I’ve seen alot of snipers lockdown an armory from the safety of their own armory.

And there is a glitch where you can spawn into one of the random vans littered across the map, where the only way out is suicide.
