How would you just "get together for a few games" in a faction based game? If you form a unit, you attack/defend as a unit. My understanding of what the devs told us so far is that one's choices of battles to join will be limited by affiliation. So, you get killed 30 secs into the fight, where are you going to find that "other battle" to join? If you are talking about arena style, free-for-all game mode, you can drop from it as soon as your primary match finishes.
Also, to address the point regarding large maps, multiple objectives, etc. Respawn/no-respawn makes no difference here - you can still do "5 objectives" campaign/mission with no respawn, it would simply be 5 separate drops instead of one continuous battle.
Yeah thats what I mean with the compromiss in waves.
Its a set amout of players, and if one is down he can rejoin in another mech when a objective is taken.
If he has no more mech available in his Bay (or at the Dropship-->pre combat preperations) he can leave the game.
Another player could take over if so.
This would also be only reasonable for bigger Corp operations for planetary invasions
all inoperable mechs will be left on the battlefield, and the winning side can salvage them.
Salvage can be randomly given to each Lances
(points for damaging/final blow, mech chassis to the best player of the lance)
thought about this while cooking dinner xD
