For me it's domination ..now this used to be my favorite mode Now I hate and loath domination because it's always very one sided It's the biggest camping mode That results in the most death to asinine ways I find more people sniping in dom than anything else It always feels like my squad is the only one doing anything and then when I die i see 8 blue dots spinning in circles 500m from the objective
Also home point camping is rampant in dom now

Ambush, at least I have a chance in Dom, sorta. I can go heavy and play point defense in Dom, you know what I play in ambush, dead. But at least it's better than FW...oh the nightmares..reminds me of beta...

I gotta say Dom. Used to be fun, now everyone just camps it to hell, heavies everywhere, everyone uses their dropship to get on rooftops to do said camping.... Its not all that fun anymore. Atleast Ambush ends pretty quickly.... |

Domination without a doubt.
There needs to be some serious rework. The lack of even remotely decent incentive to win results in a glorified ambush. Slayers go find a common choke point regardless of who holds the objective.
At some point players need to take ownership of these horribly one sided matches. You'd think that it would be painfully obvious that domination requires a rush to the point and uplinks. Perhaps all installations should start out hacked so the window lickers will bypass them and keep going toward the point.
I think removing destroy installations from daily missions could help a bit as well.

Ambush is awful. It's just a wall of proto running around the map killing everything. If your team doesn't counter with it's own wall of proto you will get steam rolled. This is why ambo is usually extremely one sided.
Dom used to be fun but now it is starting to get as unevenly matched as ambush normally is.
Obviously this only leaves Skirm, which is all I play anymore. There are plenty of options, tactics and flanking maneuvers you can do in skirm even when your team sucks ass. When my team sucks I like to minja around the map and fuk with the proto squad fegs. When six scrubs are running around the map with their thumbs up eachother's ass it is fun to pick them off one by one.
The only real truth in history is that it was bloody.

I'm going to say Domination is my least favourite game mode, simply because once the opposing team has control of a point they tend to camp or hide in the weirdest of places.

Half the maps are crap, the half-pyramid, the two rooms (one without sky lite is a joke), and train tunnel.
Gimmick maps that HMG, Plasma Cannon, and Mass Drivers rule...
Once a team is set up it is hard for teams to push into them.
Is it possible? SURE... and people can explain all the ways.... but it ain't gonna happen in a pub.
A room with two doors is not the place for a dom objective.
You at least have a chance in the train tunnel.
IMO MAP>Team Work
Half pyramid on a Tiny Arena Dom map?
HORRID socket for the Arena Dom... HORRID socket for an objective period.
Too easy to control.
What makes for great gaming is the ability to flank, and strike at the enemy from many angles WITH COVER to aid in your advance.
Many of these maps simply don't have enough cover to make that happen, leaving anyone that is willing to push forced to cover sometimes up to 100m of open space... where guys on top of say... a pyramid can destroy you.
Of course... I say all this and do appreciate many maps for the lack of symmetry which is BALANCED but boring.

Agreed, if they keep the maps the way they are it would take at least 3x the payout to make the quality domination match mover past 10%. They are fun every now and then, but as Morte says it's usually a quick redline and 3 or 4 campy, chickenshit deaths.

Most of them are so defensible that you really would need 200 or 250 clones to be able to push properly and have a good match, especially on the "Bunker" dom maps.
One thing that they should do is just up the rate of damage on an MCC if 80%+ of the losing team is behind the redline.
Speed these crap fests up...

Ambush. If I wanted to play that game mode I'd play CoD or Destiny.
Dom is actually my favorite since I don't have to run around to different objectives for most the game and I generally know where the enemy is or is going.

All of them. They're stale and otherwise dull gamemodes anyway.
We need more. I want 4v4 Search and Destroy and 16v16 CTF. MAG-style Sabotage and Acquisition(for "Black-Ops HAVs") A survivalish defense mode where one team has to just stay alive as long as possible in a highly defensible bunker/structure while the other team tries to eliminate them.

Personally, I really enjoy Dom; it's a lot of action, and Dom nets the highest ISK and SP payouts.
Skirm is what I play when I need a break from Dom; it's more tactical, and there are more oportunities for stealth.
Ambush is what I play when I'm on the verge of biomassing.

Also home point camping is rampant in dom now Dom used to be my favorite game mode. Everyone gives up way to quick. We could slaughter for ten minutes then snag the point. Defend like crazy for the rest of the match. Now I leave more doms than I play. It's so boring |

Domination is the worst. However, it has always been my favorite ever since it was introduced.
Even up till now... 90% of all my games are played in Dom: as a solo player!!
There must be something wrong with my head. Perhaps I really am a masochist? I have like 23k deaths just on one of my toons... |

Bush/skirm At least in Dom I don't have to rely on the rest of my team I can still win with little help. Redline sniping is a problem and so is the heavy and RE spam though.

50 clone Ambush.
It makes no sense, the entire construction of the game mode.
-The map size is just monumentally stupid.
-The spawn mechanics are even more stupid. They have fixed smart spawn and broken it like 6 separate times now since launch.
-It was thrown into the same que as 80 Clone Ambush. Aka, (Ambush OMS). So players just seeking a quick couple 10 +/- min games had to que up and roll the dice.
-There is no last clone standing. The end is always delayed for a minute at the end of every battle.
All the other game modes are decent.
tl;dr.
It is PAINFUL To see there is no capture the flag... Or some kind of capture some asset or something.. With vehicles and all kinds of roles this would be the best game mode.
Domination came from the Event where the Caldari Titan crashed into the planet. It was part of the event when DUST was worked on and had a storyline around it.
We as the players bitched to CCP endlessly for the game mode, and it turned out to be an awesome addition, except upon implementation we figured out it was a lazy implementation with objectives terribly placed and maps not properly adjusted for all roles of DUST 514, I.E. (Sniper, tanks, dropshps, ladders to challenge positions.) Missing sockets, later when finally added... again objectives placed outside of them... not thought out or planned at all.
This has started to be fixed at least.
We still wait for CCP to finish their maps and actually provide solid roofs to walk on that don't feel like your on some weird ass acid trip. |

Ambush
You can quickly have your spawn camped and there's nothing you can do about it, you can't even leave the match cause you have to spawn first to do that

Definetly Dom. Only time it can be enjoyable is when you have a decent squad with decent blues, thats maybe 25% of the time I play, because really? Decent blueberries? Cmon...

Ambush, exploitable spawns and just too high a chance of being spawnraped literally the instant you come out of spawn.
It's just not fun.
Dom is mostly good though occasionally turns into something monumentally stupid when there are bad sockets involved.
Skirmish is the only game mode where I'm happy the vast majority of the time.

Ambush, firstly, because of protosync mechanics, maps too large to support constant contacts, and smart deploy spawning hapless blues at the enemy point in the beginning, or in a meatgrinder.
Dom, because of reasons already stated by others.
