Flexapex 20	Posted - 2012.09.23 18:53:00 - [1] - Quote This game isn't made for classical team deathmatches like in COD,BF3 to name a few. They better put all their energy in putting up big conquest modes. Ambush in here just doesnt feel right but thats my oppinion, For me ambush in 1 sentence = CRAP tell me yours about ambush.
Beast Beastlington Bragian Order Amarr Empire 237	Posted - 2012.09.23 18:54:00 - [2] - Quote I think it's crap, personally.

Terrible game mode.
Flexapex 20	Posted - 2012.09.23 18:58:00 - [6] - Quote problem is right now .like every auto match i join (since u cant choose what u want to join,play) is ambush. i only played a couple of other matches but mostly its ambush ambush and again ambush. They should get rid of ambush .
Gauder Berwyck Deadly Blue Dots RISE of LEGION 217	Posted - 2012.09.23 18:59:00 - [7] - Quote It becomes bearable with a supply depot. Without one, it sucks.
Ima Leet Imperfects Negative-Feedback 321	Posted - 2012.09.23 18:59:00 - [8] - Quote i hate it. we need objectives. i like playing as a team. not a 1 man killing machine. at least put supply depots in every map of ambush for something to defend or attack +1 to who mentioned this before me
Beast Beastlington Bragian Order Amarr Empire 237	Posted - 2012.09.23 19:10:00 - [9] - Quote TDM, like any game mode, benefits from good map design. I don't think the current map design helps the action to flow at all. There's never really any ebb and flow to the matches. You can't just dream up a layout and plonk 24 players into it. The design has to be carefully considered - flanking areas, choke points, hot spots for camping etc. That massive wide open map is a complete disaster. Mid to long range battles with woefully inaccurate rifles are tiresome and boring.

Tarn Adari Crux Special Tasks Group Gallente Federation 157	Posted - 2012.09.23 19:13:00 - [12] - Quote I like the spire map in Ambush. The small ones and the one with the six towers at the sides suck.
DUST Fiend Immobile Infantry 1903	Posted - 2012.09.23 19:14:00 - [13] - Quote The problem is that this game requires intelligence, constant communication, and strong coordination; of which many players are sorely lacking. That changes the whole dynamic.
Unit-775 Villore Sec Ops Gallente Federation 36	Posted - 2012.09.23 19:19:00 - [14] - Quote First i did really hate it, but after a while i got used to mindless running around shooting people. As a evetard i would say i slowly get joy out of brainless FPS action. Oh and it actually helps train your gungame or how it is called.
Jak Teston Osmon Surveillance Caldari State 99	Posted - 2012.09.23 19:22:00 - [15] - Quote I quite like ambush matches. Once you stop thinking of it as mindless DM with teammates it's very nice. (I partly like ambush because in this mode people are actually playing the game instead of boosting back at spawn.)
Maken Tosch Planetary Response Organisation Test Friends Please Ignore 1592	Posted - 2012.09.23 22:13:00 - [16] - Quote @OP You mean tell you what you don't already know about what we think about ambush maps.
Ieukoplast Osmon Surveillance Caldari State 169	Posted - 2012.09.23 22:26:00 - [17] - Quote Ambush on the huge open maps is absolutely awful. But on the smaller tight maps it isn't half-bad. Although they should really think about omitting tanks, jeeps and dropships for use in those maps when it is ambush.
STB Vermaak Doe 558	Posted - 2012.09.23 22:27:00 - [18] - Quote Defend the only thing worth defending
Th3rdSun L.O.T.I.S. Legacy Rising 323	Posted - 2012.09.23 23:08:00 - [19] - Quote Ambush is horrible,especially since it seems that the majority of the matches are on that TERRIBLE map with all of the rocks.I'm soo sick of that map that I never want to play it again.
THUNDERGROOVE ZionTCD Legacy Rising 33	Posted - 2012.09.23 23:50:00 - [20] - Quote Would be a lot better if each side had a pre-determined spawn instead of spawning either on top of 3 mercs from the other team or 2 miles away from the nearest person.

Brumae Verres 24	Posted - 2012.09.24 00:07:00 - [21] - Quote Over all, agree. Ambush is crap and I groan every load up of it. Except for the small ones. Even then they aren't awesome, but they are great zones for building team breach, and team cover fire/advance skills. There is no point. No objective, no drive. The big maps are just sniper training. They are some drill sergeants wet dream of repitition and practice.

Especially on the smaller base type maps where my sniping skills aren't worth **** because everyone is way too close. Some games are made for TDM, Dust is not. Can't wait until we get to select our game mode so I never have to play ambush on here again.
Baal Roo Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 811	Posted - 2012.09.24 00:10:00 - [23] - Quote Ambush is a lot of fun with a competent and pre assembled squad, but it's awful as a pickup game... ... so, pretty much the same as skirmish.

Longshot Ravenwood Algintal Core Gallente Federation 680	Posted - 2012.09.24 01:01:00 - [25] - Quote I think I find a reasonably defensible position & drop 2 uplinks that face different directions & use my fits with nanite injectors until the enemy pulls out a tank for one of my antivehicle fits to tackle. Bunker down, kitten just got real.

I completely understand the spawn system the way it is now,to prevent spawn camping,but what really doesn't make any sense is why every time I start a match,me and my squad mates don't spawn near each other.I think many of the spawning issues would be easily resolved if they had it where you spawned near squad mates instead of in no man's land nine times out of ten.Can't tell you how many times I've spawned without a single teammate around. Can't wait until I have a choice again to not play ambush.

Can't wait until we get to select our game mode so I never have to play ambush on here again. Just sneak out of the base and snipe people from the hills. It gets kind of boring, though, so on these small maps I usually use my shotgun medic and revive and repair in the thick of things. It's basically an SP farm as long as I remember not to charge into the teeth of danger.

Kitten gets cooperative real fast :)

The other map, with all the buildings and cover (and is nicely confined), is great for TDM.
