I played my first game today had a lovely 40-6 game
I have to say I think I might be a fan felt a tad empty but definitely could provide a competitive scene
Too boring for me. I play Battlefield for its big scale and atmosphere. If I wanted a smaller game, I would’ve bough BO4.
It’s alright. Not a huge fan of flag chasing though so I tend to steer away from conquest all together.
40 is a crazy high kill count for that mode. But yea it’s a lot of fun.
Could get boring though if enemy team has any afkers or full of noobs.
Yeah that’s what I thought! As many kills as I’d obtain in regular CQ it was lacking atmosphere but that was to be expected
When both teams are randoms: it’s fine I guess. Could take it or leave it. Too small of maps for all classes to be all that useful
When 1 team has clan members: mode becomes one of the most unbalanced stomps I’ve ever seen in a BF game
It’s good fun when the teams are balanced.
But not very enjoyable when there’s a clan vs randoms.. I’ve been on the recieving end of a stomp a few times, and it’s not fun at all when that happens..
I think they should remove vehicles from that mode though.. The maps are too small for a tank imo..
Linear maps - yes
With friends - yes
12 v 12 - yes
Triangle zerg - no
Unbalanced teams - no
Small sample size because I stopped playing it after I did all the tides of war stuff but every round I played was full of bads. Could’ve won every round blindfolded with one hand probably. Minus my first round where I lost by 3 after dropping 50+ kills lol.
.
It has potential but I am not convinced it is different enough from Domination to justify its existence.
In this mode PTFO is clearly visible. Just had a round were my team dominated in k/d but the other team won. We just had three k/d … on our team
It was okay. It would be more fun for organised squads, but then you’re just pub stomping teams of randos. Great way to pad your stats I guess.
Having AFKers in pretty much every match idling for whole games turned me off. Not sure why DICE didn’t set an AFK timer for the mode.
Is there seriously no AFK timer in this mode??
That would explain all the “JEEZ, where IS my team at???” moments
Some squads of mine played together, others didn’t. Lots of lopsided matches.
No matches on US servers when I would check.
Played same 3 maps over and over again.
Lot of matches weren’t even full.
Half the squads were medics.
Thinking this mode will die out after this rotation is over for the gun.
I have seen people AFK in other modes for entire rounds so I guess they forgot to include a timer.
Needs Panzerstorm with 8 tanks per side insta respawn.
I’ve played squad death match and squad rush since Bad Company and they’re great little modes for competitive players in groups or solo, as you said.
The servers end up being less and less populated because players get fed-up of being farmed so they stop coming back. A bit like the aircraft only modes. Those servers always end up dead as well. On PC EU anyway.
I think I have only been in one close game.. all the rest one side steam rolls the other…
This is the best gamemode for teamwork. Allready seeing many clans playing it. It is like 8vs8 small conquest in BF4. And in BF4 there where 8vs8 tournaments. It is for those who like to work together..
I like the mode. Could use 12p or even 16p per side though. 8vs8 is fun but sometimes a bit lonely.
Bump it up to 12v12 and give us 6 man squads and a few more maps… I’d likely only play this mode if those additions were made.
