Skirmish was copy/pasted and tweaked to become Domination. Domination is essentially the same as Skirmish, but with only one point, and no objective-spawning.
Acquisition so far is fun, but also just tweaked SUPERIOR version of Domination. Like Domination, it has only one point that you can't spawn on, but instead of stagnating into boring one-sided kill farming, it actually remains dynamic.
Skirmish and Acquisition are different enough compared to each other, but Domination is like some pointless vestigial transition phase that is now obsolete. All it does is divide the playerbase even further.
I think Domination should be removed from the public battle listings. Some of you may be reticent to support this, as it appears like I'm suggesting removing content from the game, but keep in mind that Domination is just an inferior version of content we already have (Acquisition).
While I hate it, I would not mind if it was used in something else like Planetary Conquest, or Faction Warfare, or do something else with it. I heard some suggested putting Domination and Skirmish in the same queue, and I DO NOT support this because I don't want my Skirmish experience ruined with Domination.

DUST Fiend wrote:Might want to fix Acquisition first though. Having one farmable home spawn, no real indicator of when you're going to win or lose, and objectives in the redline are all issues that need addressing.
Again though, I don't believe in removing content just because CCP fails to build and retain their player base. We shouldn't be punished for CCPs failings. With every major update there are issues, and they eventually get fixed.
Secondly, whose to blame for the playerbase is irrelevant -- just a reality that has to be acknowledged and designed around. For reasons I explained in the OP, I wouldn't consider the removal or moving of Domination elsewhere a loss of content (we shouldn't be fighting to keep bad "content" anyway).

Like EVERY dom match I have ever seen lmao. People like their easy wins, good luck prying it away from them Every acquisition battle today has been the same way for me. My experiences differed, but if it is as you say, well at least in Acquisition the points reset to give the losing team a change to turn it around. This makes Acquisition a pure upgrade, and makes Domination obsolete.

No. Poor quality response True Adamance. I explained my reasoning clearly and concisely, yet you give me just 4 words.

No. Poor quality response True Adamance. I explained my reasoning clearly and concisely, yet you give me just 4 words. Your reasoning boils down to the new game mode making the current Domination redundant and therefore rather than make the move of the Skirmish Gamemode solely to FW, which admittedly no one wants, you would rather see the redundant game mode implanted in FW.

and KAGEHOSHI Horned Wolf wrote:I heard CCP is considering making Skirmish FW only. I think it would be better if it was Domination instead. I don't want to wait 10 minutes in FW just to get into a Skirmish battle Indicate to me this is purely your personal opinion so let me try to quantify mine in response. Factional Warfare should represent the step between Public Contracts and Planetary Conquest with competitive game-play requiring co-ordination, communication, and tactical acumen. Domination at its core is a "Mob and Charge" game mode with very little tactical requirements other than to place as much equipment on the point as possible and to congregate around said point to defend it. Combatants in this mode often - End up being stomped off the objective by Prototype Tier Players who then are able to reinforce their position - End up sniping from the Redline and contributing nothing to the team of the match other than the preservation of their content - End up running onto the aforementioned Prototype Players guns to die Also worth noting - The value of vehicles on specific maps designed for Domination is sporadic at best as many Domination Objectives are close off to vehicles, additionally beyond rushing the point's higher levels and entry ways vehicles have little enough value or presence on the field. - Domination directs all players are a central objective which degenerates from a tactical battle into twitch based chaos.
Domination would not be redundant in FW. FW only has a single battle type option, so therefore it cannot be redundant with anything.
I don't see how something being a personal subjective opinion in anyway discredit it from warranting consideration, or more of a response beyond 4 words. Gaming is about personal enjoyment, and therefore inherently about subjectives.
I personally would prefer if Domination was just removed to be honest. I stated that the battle type could be repurposed for some other mode for those who somehow actually enjoy it. Not wanting Domination as the FW mode for your listed reasons is a fair point, but I found your earlier dismissive tone rude, and you know I would not respond to one of your threads in such a way if I disagreed with you.
Seems that you hate Domination as much as me, so can we agree that Domination should just be removed from public battles at least?
