Ambush feels likeagood place to work on and hone good squad level tactics and coordination. I can see myself getting a custom squad together and grinding several sessions on various maps to practice holding ground, assaulting held positions, setting up and executing ambushes, extraction/insertion etc
It's fast paced and good for building teamwork |

I agree - ambush on the new maps works much better than the old maps. |

I had decided I didn't like it in the last build.
But with a variety of maps its actually okay. Not as fun as skirmish though. |

I would like a filter; No HAV driver should try and spawn his nice HAV in an ambush map, there fore any non combat oriented role like Pilots, Drivers and MCC commanders are ****** out of their sp they invested in those skills on ambush.
I will admit pilots and drivers are more useful but generally you lose what ever comes into those maps |

I love ambush, it's a nice change of pace from skirmish. Any game mode gets boring if you play it consecutively. |

Ambush seems to be an infantry man's game.
Pilots, support and AV don't feel very useful except for playing taxi. Games are too short to pull down a 1M+ vehicle.
So I find myself in a mid-grade scout suit with proto SMG running lonnng distances to try and hit something with my crappy aim.
And these are the majority of maps we run across in instant battle. 
Not a fan, but I'm enjoying the new landscape at least. |

How are battles going to be decided; a corp could see the advantage of instigating a skirmish battle over an ambush battle. Is there any word on how the "order of battle" is decided. Its not completely map dependent as we have ambush on skirmish like maps But skirmish games do require some size to the map. It could be a resource ratio thing, such as to battle for two districts at once a skirmish is required but to surgically take one small single district are relegated to only ambush like operations. This does seem to be the case as I just battle in a skirmish map with biomass tacked on as an objective point. |

this is a vey bad idea, because not only are you getting rid of tanks, but you are getting rid of all the people who specced for AV, which will have an effect on logibros, then that has an effect, and so on, and so on.
Im a tank driver and i dont want somebody telling me i cant use the thing i put 15 million sp into simply because they dont feel like having to deal with it so they can pew pew with an AR all day. |

I wasnt saying filter the Pilots, driver etcs; read the thread, I was agreeing with a filter being placed on game types/maps which is in other FPS games.
No one in there right mind would say filter certain skills; closest I advocate is sp teirs |

It has the same value as skirmish, just a different way of playing. Just because you don't like a game type, doesn't mean it isn't any good. It's just not for you. |

not necessarily, ambush means nothing to the meta game. CCP is all about the meta game. |

Exactly.
Basically,ambush is for the (dare I say it) COD crowd that's just looking to shoot people in the face without any real risks or rewards that the meta game is supposed to represent.

Ambush is for the people who dont care about meta game and simply want to log on and insta play. eSports with the gladiator arena and rogue drones will be very similar....This is CCP making an effort to appeal to more than just hardcore gamers.
This does not put it on the same level of significance as skirmish and the meta game contracted battles which have a lasting impact on a persistent level to thousands of players, whether or nor you are even participating. You might not care about wars and such, but if a corp begins an economic war with another and the price of your fitting goes up by 500%, tough. |

You do realize the one of the OTHER selling point of dust isnt so much as "filtering" matches as fighting ones for your corporation? Filters will be in.

I despise ambush in its current form. Without fail I spawn alone, with 4 to 6 enemies between me and all the friendlies around. My average lifespan is about 30 seconds. |

Of course I realize that, did I say something that made it seem like I didn't?
I'll be back as soon as I don't have to play ambush, but I'm not gonna bother.with sonething I'm not enjoying. I don't think that's unreasonable is it? |

I'm all for providing data samples, but match after match of AUR clad friends/squads late logging into an ambush so they can totally dominate with numbers, to get killson the board and tip the entire match in their favour.... gets old really quik...
and if its not friends/squads gaming the system... then might want to look at how the system is allocating people to teams... outnumbered by 2-3 when you're the only one on a team is nerve racking >;(
now if the Ambushes were like 10v10 or more it'd be a dream!!!!!
