Never have I seen so many organized squads/corps play ambush in a given night. 9 matches out of 10 I end up on the receiving end of a complete steamroll match in ambush.
Makes sense, as 99% of Dust players who capped arent going to play skirmish with the current SP system. But it absolutely ruins ambush, I sure hope CCP makes a ambush mode in which you can only play if you are not in a squad. As ambush this time of week is borderline torcher. |

Actually It ruins ambush if your just a random in thier side too. There aint S*** for SP for you. Everything is DEAD before it can move. Alright that is a bit of an exaggeration just not much of one. |

its a problem when you are facing people who have better equipment than you. players who have been playing this since the closed beta have a real advantage over new players. I think this is a problem that could ruin the experience for new players. Who wants to play against people you can't kill? There should be a ranking system introduced where players are in games with people who have accumulated a similar amount of war points. Other fps use this, why not dust? |

I'm new to this game (maybe 4 days of actual gameplay), on my second day I had the idiotic notion to believe that since I was getting top 5 in almost every match, I must have been a great player.
It's very frustrating to be put in check, (especially now that I've decided to invest some isk in a decent fitting) but it's encouragement to get better at this game.
That said an "unranked" style match would be nice and really an obvious thing to look for. This is only beta |

Because CCP doesn't like artificial limits to who can play together, and by' doesn't like' I mean 'absolutely despises and will never, ever use'.
Games with gear limitations would be better, as that doesn't filter out people, only the gear they can use. Ultimately though, that may prove unnecessary after the next build, since that is when we're getting the first proper iteration of planetary conquest - which should give those who have capped something else to focus on. |

Yeah, shame the community voted on an option that limits no-lifers from maxing out skills overnight  . Sadly due to people such as yourself, ambush was a casualty of this decision.
Hopefully CCP pulls their heads from the sand and gives players an option to play ambush without pre-match squads on either team. |

I think the problem is neither game mode satisfies the team work requirement... Might as well snowball ambush hard with a tank squad and not bother with letters :\ |

Game is lacking a proper matchmaking system. Squads and corporations should be pitted against other squads and corporations not just bunch of randoms. If automatic system is too hard to implement then just copy Call of duty Mercenary game mode where teams are fully randomized (mode where being in a squad only brings you to the same game, not necessarily to the same side.)

I dont think it ruins ambush if anything for me personally it makes the game mode better! This game is about teamwork and class combination dynamics.. hell yeah its gonna suck if you solo so just sqaud up!
I do agree they need to create level tiers for match making and I think it would make sense if they used skillpoints allocation as the key to match making. |

First no on solo mode ambush. Why don't we add a free for all as well.
The purpose of the game is to fight as CONTRACTED mercs. We are paid for our work and hence work for one of the 4 factions of EVE.
I could one day see fighting for 4 factions simultaneously though again due to alliances really there will always be 1 "group" against the other"
There doesnt need to be additional modes splitting our base at this point in time.
With OP, we predicted this for you and this was what you got.
If you didnt want an unlimited soft cap you should have been more vocal about altering the soft caps numbers so players that wanted to grind SP after capping out would still find playing skirmish viable if the rewards were right. Dont hate the grinders hate the system that forces them to choose the most efficient pathway for grinding.
Anyway should have bought the book it predicts all these and future events that shall come to pass and all heretics that refuse to heed shall burn. |

I hit the cap and all i will get is 1000WP and because ambush is a quick game i can get many matches when compared to 1 skirmish match and thus more SP
If the community did vote for option 5 then skirmish would be more popular since you can also earn more SP because 1 WP = 1 SP so at least players would try to do better and to earn as many WP as possible instead of playing ambush or hitting 1000WP then afking in the MCC for the rest of the match
No point crying about it now you got what you voted for so HTFU and deal with it |

i'm the 1% that still plays skirmish after cap and to Xprotoman i'm glad they chose option 2 keeps you guys away from me most the time and all these corps playing ambush normally leave me alone because they are in ambush leaving me to pwn the noobs in skirmish :P |

I don't even know how people find enough free time to hit the cap let alone argue about going over it. |
