Something I noticed in the dev blog about 1.9.
"Isolation is a new type of map we are experimenting with. In short, it is the Production Facility in a much smaller new map with one Medium Socket on either side. This Battleground should be frantic and fun, for both Ambush and Domination game modes."
I'm curious if this is an actual new game mode called isolaion, or just a new type of map for Ambush and domination only? (Will we see this in skirmish, is it its own game mode?)
Sounds cool either way.

I've been wondering that myself.

If it was going to be it's own, new game mode, they would have highlighted that as it's own seperate bullet point knowing how much the playerbase wants something different. I would guess from the phrasing and verbiage that it is simply a new map component designed to "isolate" people into a small pod for intense firefights. This is going to seriously increase the necessity of teamwork because in that small of an area, communication will be vital. Teams with communication can surround and flank another team and just annihilate them if the other team isn't working together to respond appropriately and moving people into the right positions.
That being said, I'm REALLY looking forward to this if it's done correctly. It will basically eliminate snipers altogether  , but I can handle that for a few matches here and there.

I vote map type.
If it's a new game mode, I will be donating all my isk to Jadek. I'm that sure it's not a new game mode. |

Seems obvious that it's a map, as it explicitly says it is a map, and says it should be fun for Domination and ambush game modes.... Can't have a game mode be"frantic and fun" in other game modes, doesn't make sense there.

That should answer it.

Pretty sure, based on the dev blog, it's going to be a map type in the rotate of the existing queues. But if it's popular and works well, I'd love to push for it to be it's own queue.

It's pretty self explanatory, lol. This is how I wanted ambush matches from the start! One clear base for each team, leading to much better pitched battles, and not running around like headless chickens with random spawning in the midst of a whole enemy team (a la CoD).
Yep

I reckon that if it becomes it's own queue Ambush will die, unless protostompers really only care about completely owning and not having good battles.

You lot are so harsh, I knew it was just going to be a type of map I just wanted to stir up some conversation about different game modes as honestly that is the only thing I could think that we would 'need' at this point.
It does clearly say that it is just a type of map however it does not say if it will ONLY be available in Amb + Dom. I probably wont get to see it in skirmish but it does not explicitly state that.... a guy can hope right?

Is it a enclosed indoor/city map, where you wont see tanks and such as much as in other maps? Will be interesting to see.
