Domination wouldn't be like that if Ambush wasn't killed off.

I used to play Ambush all the time through the day, besides Domination in the early hours of the morning, or Skirmish for PC or FW. Once the last change occurred in Ambush, it died overnight as no one could use vehicles anymore, so I noticed very quickly that my squad leaders would deploy us into Domination, where we totally annihilated everyone, until all the other stompers joined us in the following days, making Domination the more aptly named Domibush. I search all 4 gamemodes, last night I played 7 games, 6 Domination, 1 Skirmish, 0 Ambush, 0 Acquisition.

Reintroducing vehicles to Ambush is the only way revert this, even though it is a backward step entirely.

You make it sound as if vehicles are the only things that give you enjoyment.

For some people they are. I mean you've probably been playing an infantry based class for the better part of a decade now if you got in ground floor on the original FPS game.

At this point infantry work is a necessity to win matched but it feels contrived and boring to me. Not nearly as entertaining as driving an LAV or HAV.

As True said. I primarily played ADS back then. Assaults are fun, just not as much.

Most stompers played it as 2 Good Tankers = Win, back in that Ambush.

The best thing about Ambush (for me at least) was the fact that you would almost always have 2 tanks to play against, but with no redzone for them to run and hide in. As a vehicle user, this was the most fun place to use them... Though most people just went blaster scrub and tried to farm infantry, which made it all the more amusing to pull out a missile tank and screw that plan up for them. Would really like another mode with no one sided redzones... But with vehicles. Also I wonder how many AV users had the same idea as me... Noticed there were always a few forgers/swarmers at the start of the battle.

At least there's always something to try and do. Dom just ends two minutes in 95% of the time. Believe it or not, theres always something to try and do in Dom too. Just creating a zone of stability somewhere can get you back in the game. Yeah... There's plenty of 'bore the enemy to death' tactics in Dom... Just ignore the letter, set up shop somewhere else... Then when enough enemies get bored, they'll come out looking for something to do. Wait, what am I saying, that's not just Dom... That's every damn game-mode at the minute... You'll usually find that "zone of stability" somewhere in one of the redzones.
