best map in synergy history

[Fyi]

and why is it endor

 

(post your reasons for why a map is your favorite)

[Brooklyn]

Endor. It's the last time anyone treated Synergy like a roleplay server. That and sith

[Rizzo]

The last Anaxes, that temple with those planets was top tier.



OR the first venator. But thats just nostalgia.

First Synergy Version of Anaxes is one of the best maps for Gming

[Kurt]

Very very close with Endor and First Anaxes. Endor only loses a few points cause of the amount of crashes

The amount of people that actually manned the outpost

Hot take. 

Phase 1 Onderon. The hype, the atmosphere the base were all so sick. The badass interactive maps, base layout it was gorgeous. Onderon only got uglier and worse as the versions were made.

[Arizona]

Imo next map synergy gets it should be a throwback map. Nothing crazy but lets just experience the amazing map of endor again. Optimize the map/ fix whatever was wrong with it and maybe a little bit of a remaster but thats it. I wouldnt be mad at a throwback map

Extensive, Endor, and Onderon are the only contenders.

Extensive is the peak Venator map. The only other venators that can be brought up our brought up for pure nostalgia. Extensive had it all despite being a little bit of a labyrinth for newer people.

Endor objectively had everything a ground map should have depending on the version you remember. Personally I preferred the version where the Jedi Temple was on the planet like an outpost compared to the one you teleported to. The perfect sized base that isn’t too big or too small, two decent sized outposts for Clones, Jedi Temple that you could physically go to and not need to teleport to, the village on top of the mountain, the space port tunnel / Sith Temple teleporter, the big lake. It was perfect in terms of content it just looked and felt like a toddler made the terrain.

Onderon takes the cake on pure visuals and design alone. Onderon was the perfect unique Star Wars planet that we could have ever used and it looked stunning. Personally I think the largest downfall of Onderon were just tiny hiccups here and there that started to buildup like tree and rock hit boxes being a little bogus or the outpost being a big bland box that NPCs could shoot through. The village was an awesome concept even without a BH/Civilian faction because it’s something non militaristic and cool. Also I prefer the second layer being more of the planet I just wish it had a little more variation and wasn’t dense jungle like the first sector. If it was more open fields for GMs to build and what not that would have been a bit better but compared to having “different” planets I much prefer having a different sector of the same planet. Plus we had the seasonal variants which were just so cool.

Tldr; Remaster Endor with Onderon assets

Also fuck Anaxes even when we were at 128 players DAILY it was still a shitty barren ghost town. You barely ever saw anyone on that piece of trash. Love the planet hate the base.

Please remaster Endor, it was the best planet because people could actually have fun with patrols and the amount of space was insane. If Endor had quest that would have been insane. The fact people actually interacted with eachother then just b hop around during downtime 

[Finn]

I'd take Endor over anything. It was perfect for every type of roleplay, and big enough for everyone to have rp without overlapping too much

[Clutch]

Endor 100%.

When we left Endor the first time in 2019 it was truly heartbreaking. Even when we switched back for a month in 2020 it was one of the most fun times I had on the server. Endor had everything a huge base, huge temple, overall giant map with a lot to do and there was never a second where I wasn't bored playing the server.

not to mention the mismatch of what looked like two bases shoved together after the amount of reiterations made. I was only on Endor one time so i can't relate to the nostalgia. 
 

This is where the downfall started. Excluding some changes like the SIM room lighting and ER Lighting. Onderon V2  was still really good, but it caused the move to V3

Endor. Hands down the best, even if the jedi temple is a teleport type of thing. 2 outposts and that time the jedi forest got turned into a KOS zone that jedi couldnt go into or theyd be kos. That was amazing times with sith even with its problems showing towards the end of its existence.

Ah Yes. Roleplay, I forgot what that was recently.

[Craigary]

Endor. That was the best time of the servers life period

The cycle of synergy community members claiming every map BEFORE was really good for RP and that RP is dead on the server is comical at this point 💀

RP died with the players not the maps
