DUST Search - Solo ambush gamemode (CCP/DEV)

TheD1CK wrote:

I tried a similar post before, it died so ill try again Pirate

Solo ambush would be a new option in the Battlefinder, it could only be selected by
mercs who are not in a squad and squads could not be formed during battle

This leaves the option of Teamchat or No chat, simple
While also stopping full squads deciding battles before they begin

And as for Orbital WP...
All teams WP goes towards hitting 6000 WP, once you get that
An Eve pilot can provide the OB, preferably with a view of the Dust overview map

Eve side this could be implemented wherever it would suit as it would offer
a pvp opportunity to them as well as us... and would not involve Factional Warfare

So my logic is usually flawed, so this idea needs work Idea

- Solo players no longer punished for going up V squads
- Eve player have a new toy to play with (not just firing, but deploying OB)
- It could be the first balanced gamemode in Dust514
- Merges random players together for fast fun battles

There is a lot of potential with it, so get ready to tell me why it wont work Roll

Foo Fighting Forsaken Immortals Top Men. 54	Posted - 2014.02.02 16:03:00 - [4] - Quote Don't get me wrong I'd love a solo mode that works. However, what is to stop squads q syncing and using corp chat or some other channel to stomp?
TheD1CK Dead Man's Game 537	Posted - 2014.02.02 16:09:00 - [5] - Quote Absolutely nothing, maybe CCP could make it tougher to get synced to this battle But even if they didn't the qsync's are pretty likely to be split on to opposing teams or they might get put in separate battles all together ... As I said Teamchat would still be an option so there will be voice comm So this gamemode can still be competitive Minmatar Demolitions Specialist Plasma Cannon Pro

It'd be a great place for new(er) players to learn the game and should result in much fewer stomps for those of us that play solo and don't like sitting around while one side gets stomped (yes, being on the winning side of a stomp is just as boring as being on the losing side.) Otherwise you'll end up with what we're currently seeing--an endless stream of q-synch games that diminish the sense of enjoyment for those of us just looking to have some fun. Life is killing me.
NomaDz 2K The Rainbow Effect 114	Posted - 2014.02.02 22:26:00 - [10] - Quote I was talking about this the other day it's a copy and paste from CoD, game mode Mercenary It's been around since CoD 4 http://callofduty.wikia.com/wiki/Mercenary_Team_Deathmatch It's not a new idea but it's not a bad one and can work , likewise INFANTRY Only mode from Battlefield Series, No HAV, LAV etc INFANTRY ONLY. DON'T SPEND CA$H ON DUST 514 CCP WILL ONLY GIVE YOU AUR AFTER THEY REMOVE YOUR BPOs WHICH U SPENT REAL MONGé¼Y ON!

low genius The Sound Of Freedom Renegade Alliance 1198	Posted - 2014.02.02 22:48:00 - [11] - Quote ccp is not of the opinion that playing an fps solo is fun. they also know that you'll never climb to the top ranks of this game on your own. it seems unlikely that they'll give you an 'ambush' mode for lone-wolf players.
TheD1CK Dead Man's Game 539	Posted - 2014.02.02 23:42:00 - [12] - Quote Not everyone wants to squad up all the time... This gamemode would give solo players a good fight And clear up some randoms from other servers, giving more squad V squad battles It could certainly be used with other gamemodes .... @ low genius, there is 31 other players in a server so your not solo People like to play hassle free games, why not accommodate that ??

However I've been doing this for a while, so let me tell you what CCP would say if they did respond to it. "I would very much like to see something like this in the future. While we have no plans to do this right now, never say never!" And what it would translate to in reality is this. "We have neither the time nor the inclination to put in such a game mode. We have a thousand other problems to deal with, a staff that speaks no english and we're busy digging ourselves out the hole our superiors continually throw us into with this game and its god awful engine on this god awful hardware. I hope this response placates you, now go away."

OliX PRZESMIEWCA Bezimienni... 7	Posted - 2014.02.02 23:59:00 - [15] - Quote Ambush should be changed. Throw away 50vs50, leave 80vs80 only for infantry, small maps. Because sometimes you fight in short ambush on a hudge map wich support A-E points during skirmish. Make 100vs100 or 120 vs 120 ambush OMS with vehicles. Domination should be separated as well. Small one for infantry only. Big one with vehicles and moving domination point every few minutes. I think that making non squad game mode will not teach newberries how to operate in one. Best way will be to force them to join squad or randoms will be thrown to a squad wich most experienced player will be a leader. And he will get some on screen tips how to... Everything.

Yes and we will call it PLANETSIDE 2 on PS4 and expect 500+ and vehicles but a BALANCED GAME which has a MUCH BETTER FRAME RATE and LESS BUGZ Peac3 DON'T SPEND CA$H ON DUST 514 CCP WILL ONLY GIVE YOU AUR AFTER THEY REMOVE YOUR BPOs WHICH U SPENT REAL MONGé¼Y ON!
