I sure would love to see this happen. Hell yeah, +1 this. I have to agree that skirmish 1.0 was a lot of fun. It had a more "strategic feeling" that made it feel like it was part of a larger planetary wide action. Rather than the simple tactical squad v squad stuff that is feeling more and more like grinding away over and over again. It's like we went from having a short campaign with several steps to a simple match of tag. It really does feel like a huge backwards step. And no amount of "variations on a theme" maps with sockets and unlimited variations due to terrain, infrastructure, and ambient effects will change that. They are the SAME MAPS just dressed up differently and the same tactics win out EVERY TIME! No strategic thinking involved at all!

I would prefer not just one map but several maps with the 1.0 game mode on them. That may be asking a little too much though. Better let CCP walk before asking them to run huh?

Better let CCP walk before asking them to run huh? Well not really... In the smaller pub matches like Ambush or especially the Domination ones you will be on the exact same maps that are used for the larger games like skirmish etc. Only difference is that they "shrink" the play-field by applying a different "masks" to set the boundaries for the red-zones. So we follow that mechanic that they have already implemented... You take a larger skirmish match map - divide it into 3 equal parts - start match with red-zones based upon the first of the 3 parts - put an objective of some sort in each section - match conditions (whatever they end up being) either lead to progression to 2nd section or the end of match - if progress, then apply new red-zones based upon section 2 of the map - similarly for section 3 if objectives met for section 2. It's pretty obvious that CCP wants to do something like this, but are only doing all this stuff "piecemeal" because they are trying to ensure not big missteps that cause the game to end permanently. The problem is that they are taking too long to do it (as usual).
Needless Sacermendor Red Fox Brigade 583	Posted - 2013.11.27 19:14:00 - [8] - Quote Didn't they say they literally burned every piece of evidence relating to Skirmish 1.0 ... because it was the root cause of the memory leaks that were causing the hard freezes every couple of matches !? Also was that written on the same engine ... didn't they switch engines sometime since then ? I too would love to see the return of progressive battlefields ... we could run a domination into an ambush by having the victor of the domination get a clone bonus for the ambush section ... have the MCCs carrying the last batch of clones to the field and the one that survives the domination stage provides its extra clones for its team. It doesn't have to be objective based into objective based game modes. I always wondered if it was to do with the migrating MCCs that caused the problems ... but it was cool to be able to look up and see how close it was to the base and know how long you had left to defend/take the objectives ... that was a major part of what made Skirmish 1.0 fun ... you had an immersion level timer rather than a clock ticking away in the corner :-(

R F Gyro Clones 4u 691	Posted - 2013.11.27 19:40:00 - [11] - Quote I think I joined too late in private trials to see Skirmish 1.0 (or was too bewildered to notice it), but how good was it really? Whenever I dig out an emulator and go to play the "old classics" that I thought were the best thing ever, I end up just rediscovering how much games (and our expectations) have moved on since then.

Its was not so much the technical side of 1.0 that I feel in love with but more the idea. One team set up a defense while the other team attacked. Once the first line of defense crumbled you push forward while the defending team regrouped and fell back. Now when you get a good balanced game of skirmish it is nothing but a merry go round of taking and losing objectives, the wheels on the bus go round and round, round and round.

So I have bad news for you. You are not going to see that game mode for years if at all.
