Why can't this be a reality?

[Davegt27]

what do you mean?

[SirSlaughter]

King of the hill means a game mode where both teams try to capture the same place which is usally located in the middle of the battlefield

King of the Hill would be weird with limited respawns. At the end of the day you'd just be designating the place on the map where 96 Mechs go to Skirmish.

Different from attack/defense .....how?

I had a super annoying game earlier on sulfure where the "defenders" basically say in the spawns and sniped, they lost but FFS that shouldn't be possible.

I agree on the limited respawns.

Because the zone to control is in the middle of the battlefield: both teams have to move to get there and there should be multiple ways to enter it.

Not on Sulfur you can stand under the drop ships and blast away. Took us till about 5 minutes left in the match to kill enough of them to get the gens.

....and don't even get me started on the teams on counter defense that get a kill lead and then turtle in their drop-zone, you basically can't get a team out of them, one guy ejects and they basically triple their DPS while the drop ships strip you.

Current cw maps don't fit a "king of the hill" mode in my opinion. Have a look at the following picture: one team starts left, the other starts right, the capture zone is in the middle around the fountain.
