Dear pgi,

could you please move the circle in alpine peaks? please!

Can't you move it to Approximately where theta is in conquest and adjust the circle size and spawn areas?
It's placement now and circle size causes the west team to have to try and get a light into L8 on a hill with very poor cover and is usually focused down quickly. otherwise the west team has to charge the circle under fire from well positioned and covered mechs from k10 and L10. Which the east team will reach first. Now you could say that the west team could flank through the "L" line but that is NOT in the circle and brings them again under fire from superior position in L10. Which the east team will be able to get to and set up before the west team can try flanking the L line.

Now if the circle was moved to corner of I6/j6 and I7/j7 area and adjusted in diameter there would be cover for both teams if the spawns are on the F line (around f7) and M7 to the south. that gives cover in both directions and effective cover and concealment to use while fighting for the circle. And it is not in direct line of sight from the high ground to the east.

So no salt. I have an issue and am trying to find a solution that doesn't break the map.

Yes please, the last two placements of Domination circle have been increasingly bad!

They should just do the same thing for Domination that they've done for Escort.

If Escort is one of the game mode choices, maps that aren't Escort-enabled aren't selectable.. they're simply not a choice.

So, just remove Domination from Alpine, all together. If Domination is one of the game mode choices, Alpine should not be one of the map choices.

I honestly believe that Alpine doesn't have the potential, anywhere within it, to host a good and fair match of Domination.

I agree. I don't really like Domination in general, but Domination of Alpine should be considered a war crime. That map is so wide open and has such little cover that it's a sad joke on this game mode.

They should put the Domination circle on Murder Mountain, then people will just play it like Skirmish.

I'm going to have to disagree with everyone here and to similar such viewpoints in other threads/posts in the future.

I appreciate very much that the mode and map combination in this instance is not at parity for both teams. The game mode is "Domination" for a reason -- so go dominate the enemy or die trying.

As for my suggested circle placement. Drop in testing grounds and look at the spot I suggest and see if doesn't look like a good spot.
