Invasion mode is just broken

Invasion mode is just broken. At least let defenders slowly decap points or make them slower to cap. Really one lemming jumps in with dynamite after artillery strike then 5seconds and point captured and 300 extra soldiers spawn… That just stupid

Decapping points will make it even more easier for the defenders. The mode already heavily favors the defending side.

The 30 sec artillery needs to go tho. It breaks everything.

It’s not the game mode fault, defenders always have easier time.

But they are, it is really slow, but they are decaping point.

Defenders already have all the advantages. They can just zerg rush the point over and over. Casualties mean nothing to them.

Just like in Zapp Brannigan’s Big Book of War

Attackers can really only use Blitzkrieg to win. If they stop moving, they just gonna die to attrition. And lets face it, Most people Just sit around the point shooting at it without even setting foot on it.

We could have something like Red Orchestra 2 or Rising Storm 2 where the defenders also have tickets where they will be forced to retreat to another cap when suffered too much casualties on a single cap. As defenders, I have times that I told my team to retreat because we are losing too much tickets on a single cap as there are cases that the last cap didn’t offer any resistance because the defenders wasted so much tickets on an earlier cap.

Defenders having more tickets than attackers because the attacking team got massacred alot seems to be the scenario for this game’s invasion even though the attackers killed a ton of defenders more than the defenders killed them while attacking the objective which this is a double edged sword.

I think the only problem I see is that a single soldier caps a point way too fast - even outnumbering the enemy on the point by several magnitudes is usually slower.

Defenders have the advantage and they should, but that a single soldier can cap in just a few seconds is extremely annoying. Granted, it’s more of a problem with most of my teams not defending while I’m the only one on the point, and that the point gets captured once I die… But it still sucks when you see the capture notification and can’t even get back there in time.
