So it'll go from Skirmish with bases, to bases without fighting lol?

[CDLord HHGD]

Before the turrets were added people stayed at the base or cap rushed. Course, that was before 3/3/3/3. And before Skirmish....

Funny thing is though, people still complain and get snarky when you cap win on Assault... If you don't like it, play Skirmish.

Mordor will be less boring!

[SmoothCriminal]

Yeah I saw that too. The turrets were inoffensive and a good idea to prevent light rushes. They also added a degree of immersion in the game (a glimpse at AI enemies/compatriots).

Nothing has changed. Who QQ'd enough to get them removed?

I might just have to basecap spam for the next few days just for the fun of it.

LET'S NOT GET AHEAD OF OURSELVES!

[MarineTech]

Yeah, the single, damaged light capping the enemy base for the win was the reason that turrets were added to begin with.

I'm sure the wailing and gnashing of teeth will begin again almost immediately.

[Pjwned]

It's not even going to be 1 day.

All that turrets really accomplished was to turn Assault into a reskinned Skirmish mode.

Go play Skirmish if you have a problem with it.

The immense irony with this statement is that turrets were added in the first place literally because people could not stop crying about their base being capped.

My thoughts exactly.

The "Everything Old Is New" Rules of Engagement for the Assault game mode:

• Don't want to be capped, defend your base.
  
• When you hear and see "Base is under attack", don't assume someone else will take care of it.
  
• If you choose to ignore a base attack warning, you'd better be able to kill the rest of the enemy team AND the capper before he steals your righteous thunder from under your one-track nose.

Who QQ'd enough to get them added in the first place? Slow-arse assault drivers whose idea of a great tactic was to waddle to the middle and fire ALL their weapons, that's who. You know, the guys that wanted Skirmish but weren't bright enough to select just that mode.

You try holding a lock at all times against a 170kph deaths knell, and tell me streaks are easy boat.

You people seriously need to live your lives hate free, and just enjoy the game.
