Please for the love of God, give us a straight up deathmatch game mode. I am so tired of getting all set up and into an intense battle, ready to melt some faces, and have someone who doesn't want to scout or hit and run just run directly to cap my base. I am so tired that I don't even want to play the game half the time...

Reasons why a deathmatch mode would be good:

- More exp and cb for everyone.
- Less griping and swearing.
- Better use of the current terrain. As it is every match plays out about the same because you don't dare try to get too far from your base...the inevitably leads to an engagement in roughly the same grid...every time.
- MORE PLAYERS TO BUY YOUR DLC. I know personally 5 people that won't play anymore because they're tired of wasting their time. Most people like mechwarrior for the combat...


Please consider this request ~

So true, Most of my friends at SINN do not play the game anymore because of this. What point to kill 7 and lose the match because one fast scout caps...DEATHMATCH PLEASE.

Learn to defend base? Bring some scouts?

[MasterErrant]

yeah and we can sit and gripe about the light mech hiding shutdown to time out the game instead of griping about the fact that we are too stupid to defend our base. the game is alreaqdy lacking in depth

[nulface]

Deathmatch is a no brainer.
plus you guys could probably make it a real thing in less than a day.
so what are you waiting for!

[Petroshka]

I approve of this measure!

[Green Mamba]

I find it almost lunacy that not only Team/FFA Deathmatch is not in the game, but was not the fist Mode placed in game by the developers.It was in other MechWarrior Titles(you know the ones that the Player base played for years on end and with massively "less" complaining than this game has)

[Shae Starfyre]

I agree, and it is not about learning to defend base, it is because we do not want to; we want to kill each other and earn more, feel like our time is not wasted.

And as far as trying to find that last person, at least the time was not wasted that led up to trying to find the last mech in the last few minutes of a match, instead of only getting a few minutes of a match.

SUCKS!

[Arkanum]

Agree 100%. With big maps like the new Terra Therma or Alpine Peaks it's often frustration to see the game end without ever seeing an enemy mech because of capping the bases. Slugging it out in a Deathmatch would be much more fun...

[Draugis]

Agreed a DM mode would be better for those who just want straight up killing action we can keep assault mode for those who want to play attack and defend but we should make it so only one team has a base to cap so it forces players to think more critically than we already are (grammar sucks I know)

[Belorion]

/no to deathmatch only.

I was in a drop the other day with a bugged cap point. It was incredibly boring, esp when we got down to just a few people who I assume were running around not finding each other.

[BulletFetish]

Yes, I will keep playing the game but I'm not spending another real dollar on it until some form of Deathmatch is implemented.

I am fine with having a base that can be capped when there is only one person left on either team to keep someone from running off and hiding.

[Belorion]

Would the deathmatch people be ok with a king of the hill type mode?

[Mengsai]

Yes Devs, please make Deathmatch possible. I've been waiting for it since I started playing in 2012. I believe many players would enjoy MWO more if this was made available, thus increasing the player base and potential revenue for PGI.

At the very least make a Solaris VII game world for 12v12 duels, if you don't want every map to have deathmatch.

[DEEPFRYER671]

Please introduce deathmatch PGI, please.

[GadoGado]

I absolutely agree with the death match mode, but the problem is I'm not sure if the devs would like to implement this idea. I believe so many players already asked this kind of game mode, Including me. I already send an email to support team just to make sure that this idea already known and heard by the devs so many time until their ears become overheated, and then hopefully they will implement it. But the answer is:...... (Read the bold sentence)

Hello,

Like any feedback, just because the devs don't respond does not mean it hasn't been heard. Just because the devs decide to not implement a suggestion right away (or at all) does not mean players are being ignored.

See Garth's post here - he answers this concern better than I ever could:
http://www.reddit.co...wn_hall/cb7htm4

There are features and bugs that are considerably higher on the priority list at this point. This idea will have to wait for now. Besides, I like capping, both in assault and conquest.

Rest assured, your feedback and suggestions have been recorded.

Conclusion:
Well, seem they prefer capping than the death match mode. So I think this idea will be put in the lowest priority by them. Sadly for me that this death match only available in my dream....
