I wasn't here for it, though apparently in the very first build there was some kind of one side attacks, the other side defends game mode? Can we have that back? Skirmish originally was a 2 stage attack and defense game mode. With one side on the attack and the other playing defense. It was much better than skirmish 2.0.
I don't think the idea is scrapped, they'll probably call it something else. Skirmish kinds states 2 sides fighting it out, so I don't know, they might bring it back and call it siege |

They're probably trying to keep the variables down, and test the terrain and other game aspects before even trying to do different scenarios. Got to save something for release =)
Right now the goal is to make the engine work and not crash ... once the game is released, further bug fixes will come, but it'll be content development time.
Arena already coming next year, non tempered planets as well, PvE and more
We just get the really short end of the stick cause we are in the Beta =/ |

The whole point is every battle means something, so its not like you will ever see a FFA game mode, and connecting to that, some of those listed dont fit with the style CCP has set forward in creating games. At the same time im sure CCP can get creative with it, and maybe build off some of those ideas.
Atm I am actually fine with skirmish and ambush; they SHOULDNT be focusing on new modes, they have bigger priorities, like fixing lag issues on the bigger maps and being able to chew what they have right now. No need to fill the mouth with more food when they cant fit it in, or they are bound to choke. Both developers AND PLAYERS should realize this.
Edit: and if someone says "Well of course, but we should atleast get them thinking in that direction," im sure CCP has brainstormed in other possibilities, and im not against the creation of this thread, just saying dont get too riled up about it. This game is very ambitious, almost TOO ambitious, and they have a lot more then even lag issues to think of
Still, at least CCP could keep some of those game types in mind
Even if they don't fit in the hole defend or conquer goal, they still have a place in Arena mode ... where Eve and Dust players can bet on the the winners  |

Don't think so ... unlike Eve, battles will be instance based .. .there's no universe traversal for us |
