I’ll start → If I had the choice I would only play invasion.
That being said, since I dont have a choice, I keep playing when conquest and confrontation games show up.
There are quite some conquest maps I actually like alot, but more often than not the gamemode doesn’t fit with vehicle gameplay and ultimately doesn’t fit the game in general. Confrontation can be fun, but I have lost too many close matches without me understanding why it counted as losing, so I am still sceptical about the gamemode.
Assault is just worse invasion in my mind - I still quit every time Manor Assault shows up, have done so for 2 years now I guess - disgustingly unbalanced map.
Destruction however… I hate that gamemode, and I dont even know why - I leave alot of Destruction matches straight away.
I don’t really desert based on gamemode - I more so desert on how fast the first point is taken. If I join and less than 1 or 2 minutes later the first point is taken, and the enemy team has full reinforcments, I’ll leave just because it’s purely a stomp. Or I’ll leave if I’m the only one attacking / defending the point or building rallies.
If I see my team trying, I’ll stay. But if they aren’t trying, I’ll just leave. The only really maps I will leave is Quarry because I absolutely hate it, and Gavutu as the Americans since they almost always lose.
If I had to choose a favourite, it has to be either conquest or confrontation, since the ability to make mega scores is there unlike other game modes.
I prefer invasion, as long as I am the invader, or I like conquest. I absolutely despise Assault, and my first instinct when I see it is to desert…However, I bitch piss and moan but usually just play it.
Every thumbs down to modes I gave were Assault, and guess which mode Enlisted chooses to give me most? You know, If I take the time to purposely let Gaijin know I hate assault, and yet they still give it to me the majority of time just shows how broken their failed “preferred” map/mode system BS is. Yeah, the Dev’s, people make requests and it goes in one ear and out the other.
It’s the standard attack mission, but with logical mission paramiters. No arbitrary “stand here until the game decides you’re done”, no here you got a clear and logical objective, “destroy enemy assets”.
I would like to see this expand upon this in the future to include more objective types than just destroying radio stations, like you could destroy other assets too, such as AA guns, harbour defence guns, tank prototypes, etc. But also other capture methods such as lowering and hoistening flags on flagpoles. Could even work in these kinds of objectives as side-objectives on other missions (like how you can blow up baloons on the Normandy Airfield map to get more tickets). All in all, it’s already a fun and dynamic gamemode, and its got great potential to be expanded upon.
My least favourite is Conquest.
Just don’t like it.
Decided to defy forum convention and talk more about something I like rather than complaining.
Most of the time, I don’t really care what game mode I get. But if I were to choose which game mode I dislike, it’d be any defense match or confrontation match. Defense is only good when your teammates can comprehend the concept of a rally point and can understand the tactic of actually DEFENDING the point. Confrontation is alright. Long matches can sometimes get boring. It also heavily depends on the map too.
I don’t really like Conquest mode, except in certain BR matches on specific maps with certain factions.
Overall, I enjoy all the other modes, although I would prefer, when I’m a defender, to have time to fortify the position (one advantage in Destruction: defenders know the next points and can fortify them).
Also, both in defense and in attack, I don’t enjoy maps with two capture points.
Finally, a special mention for the Berlin train attack — a mode I really miss!
Man, “Assault” is abominable, and besides that, I play all the others.
With the added bonus of speed, we lose the first point if it’s defense mode, I’ll desert right away!
And I also HATE PLAYING AGAINST JAPAN, I usually desert right away!
I detest that campaign and the nation IN THE GAME!
Defending is so annoying if enemy team sucks. I have had too many games were the so called “attackers” only camp in the greyzone and snipe. These games take very long and give minimal xp.
