DUST Search - [Suggestion] Change Objective location in GRF Domination

The location of the Objective Terminal in Gallente Research Facility domination is generating anti-Sentinel hate, and for good reason.

I also feel that the location of this Objective forces people into the HMG Sentinel role and is a major contributor to there being too many HMG Sentinels. Unlike other Domination maps were a wide variety of tactics and combat styles can be used, the Gallente Research Facility objective location forces everyone into close quarter combat in a pit with only two lines of approach.

In such conditions Assault suits are at an extreme disadvantage compared to Sentinels and Scouts. I have been seeing less and less Assault suits, and more and more HMG Sentinels in GRF Dom over the last few months. I think this is because this map sucks for Assault and many Assault players are skilling into HMG Sentinel for this map in particular.

My suggestion is to move the Objective from the location of the Skirmish GÇ£AGÇ¥ Objective to the location of the Skirmish GÇ£BGÇ¥ objective. This would provide a better mix of long range and close quarter combat. The location is accessible on one side by three narrow bridges (girders), from the bottom through two star wells (CQC), and from the other side via a large bridge.

Even for a Dedicated HMG Sentinel like me, I think the Skirmish GÇ£BGÇ¥ location would be more fun to defend in a Domination match than the pit that Skirmish GÇ£AGÇ¥ is in, it's more dynamic, and for an Assault fit with a Rifle the Skirmish GÇ£BGÇ¥ location would be a thousand times better I am sure.

I donGÇÖt have a problem with Skirmish GÇ£AGÇ¥ in a Skirmish match, as there are 3 or 4 other objectives that the Assaults can focus on.

Gallente Research Facility
The Objective in Domination is located at J7 in the basement, and I am suggesting to move it to E5 on the second floor.

Skirmish Objective Locations
Sometimes there is an Objective "C" in the large socket as well but "A" and "B" are always in the same place.)

And in exchange for making Assault playerGÇÖs lives easier in GRF Dom, can we maybe drop a box on the other side of the objective in Manus Peak Dom to provide us Sentinels just a little cover?

Edit: Added map links.

Edit: Added map links. Aww,that's my favorite map. It's the only one scouts can't absolutely dominate. Moving the objective would change it to scout Dom,just like almost every other map.
