I'm obviously a longtime player (in before Chromosome) and while I like what Dust is trying to accomplish, the monotony of All-Skirmish, All-the-time can wear on you. While i've been playing the last week or so, the last six months haven't been very active for me as far as the game is concerned.
Let's be honest, Domination is simply a skirmish variant and well, Ambush is TDM...which is to say that its barely a game mode at all. This is 2014 after all...most FPS players have had "deathmatch fatigue" for years.
We've been spoiled with great game mode variety in shooters like SOCOM, BF, Brink, MAG and well...almost every game but this one and its time something unique was added. I've seen tons of great ideas for months in the suggestion forum and EVE lore would suggest that if any game should have unique game modes, IT WOULD BE THIS ONE. I don't know about you guys but i'm ready to capture/attack stations, board EVE ships, steal resources or other assets and collect bounties and do all the other cool stuff people have suggested.
I say we keep hitting CCP with good game mode ideas until something is added. Skirmish is about to drive me insane...my corp has been using the twitter hashtag #dust514needsgamemodes for the better part of a week. JOIN IN.
Not a bitter vet, but i'll be back when we have 10 game modes, jets, all racial suits/wpns and EVE has a reason to care.

Skirmish 1.0 bring it back, call it ground war Incursion - Attacking team must capture ALL null cannon nodes, once captured cannot be recaptured, must capture in order TBA - Each Team starts with 1 of 2 Null Cannons, Nough Said Can't think of many more right now.
Tanks 514

We need a Dust version of Acquisition. It could be like PC-lite "we don't give a **** about evicting you, were just here to steal your ****!!!!". Think of it as an introduction to PC, minimal investment necessary, potentially ridiculous payout (for the attackers at least), same basic idea as a typical PC match (FF enabled, no penalty for FF outside of Alliance/Corporate reprisal.
No scheduled battles either, very "SURPRISE MOTHERFUCKERS WE'RE HERE TO KICK YOUR DOOR IN AND STEAL EVERYTHING YOU'VE GOT HERE", I also envision it being less about getting the escort vehicle back to the container and more about pillaging the facility and raiding whatever you can. Let it be done through actual surprise too, if the attackers are sneaky enough to not trip any alarms in the opening phase of the raid, they should be able to rifle through all the defenders drawers unmolested for at least a short period if they want to flee without confronting the defenders, they ca, they just lose out on the opportunity for more loot.
I'd be a hell of a lot more interested in PC if there was a gamemode like that for it.

Hot drop.
one team mans defenses while the other delivers clones, supplies, and vehicles to the attackers.
the defending team has a high clone count, but the attackers count is based on the ability to reinforce.

Yes...THIS. The devs could do tons with this. MAG Acquisition was probably my most favorite game mode of all-time (SOCOM hostage escort is a close second) and both are nothing but...you guessed it! unique versions of CTF.
There are tons of things that can be "captured", so to speak. Take this and run with it, CCP.
please.

We have given them too much already. They obviously can't figure this **** out by themselves, but also don't want our help. They say they do, but they don't.
Unless you're going to pop into a CCP office and start writing some good code, fixing old code, or putting meth in the Scotch, just sit back and try to enjoy the slow, infuriating ride.

They should bring back skirmish 1.0 and maybe add a cutscene to it.
Also a capture the flag would be nice!

Mass land war. Skirmish with bigger maps that force you to travel by vehicle thus justifying MAV and DS troop transport, speeders and tank warfare.
Terrain that is elevated in between the objectives to force either staying down low or head up top of the hills. Force off redline tactics.
Do your part. Join the revolution. Sabotage FW. Help this game burn!

Yes please more modes. I'm fairly new and already getting bored of the same tank-filled battles.
Also, a practice mode where we can get used to our weapons. This way we can use our skill points wisely and not fall for the hype.

This right here!
Some kind of practice mode is needed, where vehicles and weapons can be tested! I hate that Dust 514 is all about "being invested in your role, and not having optional respecs" yet you cant effectively try something without having to spec into it with no sure way to refund if you don't like it. |

If there's a city map with extensive detailed interiors then there doesn't need to be some kind of arbitrary "no tanks" rule. By virtue of having most of the fight inside the role of tanks will be limited and players wont use them. Or the players who do use them will roll around outside doing whatever they do away from control points and most of the action.
I'd like to see more layers to maps. Other then elevation everything is essentially flat. There are few instances of any structure having multiple levels. Most buildings are solid blocks. Where are my sci-fi corridors that are low and narrow? The claustrophobic suspense seen in Aliens?
Sure we're on planets but do we need all this sky? These are huge complexes...that we walk around...How do these places function without doors? There's no sense of what these places are for or even what they do. It's not alive. I've never even seen a room. Everything is hallways. |

We just need something to break up the monotony. I know it is "in the plans." The fear is that you are going to lose all of your casual players, and this game will fail without some sort of casual base to it. Any type of previous game modes used in any game would be great. The first "Game Mode Release Pack" doesn't even have to be creative. We just need something different with an Eve lore spin. I know more game modes may thin out the servers, but it may bring more people back, too. I can count at least 20 people that I know that would come back from new game modes. I am sure others will say the same. |
