Fix Drop Locations In Frozen City - Domination

If you drop on the team with Charlie lance on on one side of the valley and the rest on the other then the odds of losing in Frozen City - Domination are extraordinarily high. The slow assaults can't join with the rest of the team, while the rest usually split up between those trying to go to the F7 fight like it were a skirmish and those who go down into the circle with some vague hope of linking with Charlie lance. Meanwhile the other team can easily group up, take the high ground near F7 and destroy those in the circle.
The degree of co-operation to prevent this is just very rare in quick play. The only solution I can think of is to either drop Charlie with the others, or at the very least to exchange the positions of Charlie and Alpha lances on the naturally losing team. Then the fight would develop in the same area as it does in skirmish, with the added interest of the domination circle off to the side.
Are there better solutions?

Cap needs to be moved to either the dropship (aka the center of old Frozen) or somewhere upalong the main F-line run. Spawns can then be adjusted around the new cap. Right smack in the middle of the trench is just bad placement- as bad as on Grim before the cap there was shifted up between the buildings on the plateau. Nobody enjoys being the one in the bowl.

The circle dynamic is also what makes it different though. It’s the one domination match where taking the circle is often a bad idea but it’s also possible to be locked out of the circle if you leave it too long. I mean, most maps the pee stain means nothing except a mark to touch early for bragging rights, while it keeps the fights in the area it usually happens in anyway. Domination on Frozen though is a big choice between taking the circle, and shooting those who do, it means a real possibility of winning by scenario at times.
It brings a different dynamic is what I’m saying. Certainly, the drop points are an issue though, but I wonder what the official stats are for each side winning, and whether there is a significant advantage in win percentage to the side dropping together or whether it just feels like it.

It's just a case of MANY players do not know how to play the game. They just rotate becuase they have about 4 braincells. Thus one side rotates into a low ground/open area and gets mauled. If just 3 players used basic semblance of intellect and did not rotate - the 'far' side is easily controllable, even in a brawler.
Anyway Old Frozen is coming back and, given its a much better map, this new Frozen won't get voted much anymore.

Much better than Assault on that map

As a bonus, you can also peek out of a small slit on the bridge, which means you can scout the enemy's movements a bit.

Old Frozen is coming back? Are you saying they are both going to be available? That's interesting, but this one still needs a fix. Nascar addicts are a reality whether the rest of us like it or not.
