So I would like to start another post on Conquest in faction. Charles my Khan and leader of DSx posted about this subject about a week ago and now seems like there are more conquest matches in faction play than ever. First 5 matches were conquest and the the 7 match was conquest again. There either needs to be one of 2 options. If not I am afraid this game will die hard and fast and be no more. Mechwarrior 5 will die with it. First option is to take Conquest out of rotation from faction play completely. Option 2 is to change the point total to win. The point total should be four time the amount of quick play which is 750. Since you get 4 waves of mechs in faction play this would make sense right. So 3000 points to get in faction would make it very interesting. PGI please take this into consideration. Some of use still love this game. Time to get back those numbers. Listen to you players and devoted Mechwarriors. Lately it feels like your ignoring us or just pushing us away on purpose. Thanks for reading.

Why on earth should conquest be taken out of FP?

It would remove the only mode that really works well and is really enjoyable!

I was just saying as an option. Conquest is far to short of a faction match. Which is not cool when you wait anywhere from 10 to 30 minutes waiting to get into. Conquest would be fun if they just increased the total cap points from 2000 to 3000 instead of 1250

Let's try it with1,750 first.

Am I a lucky one that once in-sync has to wait 5min maximum to get a game?

Yeah I intend to stream/play later today cause of event.

If it's gonna be endless conquest I'm honestly gonna log off and go play something else.

Make the tickets at least 1500, preferably 1750, and it would not be anywhere near as bad.

I like the idea of 1750 to try first. Thanks for the support on this subject and hopefully it will go somewhere and PGI will here us.

Conquest is good. When there is a stomping premade out there you still can win by teamwork when you are on the weaker side.

But cap increase is necessary.

Yeah, Bishop Six like usually wanna PvE gameplay, not PvP. Genrush on Siege mode, caping base in Assault, base rushing in Incursion, lemming rushes in Conquest.No wonder about this.

i like fp conquest. if you want to delete something delete fp domination. id be happy if it was just skirmish, conquest and seige with equal probability.

im all for upping the clock though. start with 1500 and see what that's like first.

Conquest is ruining Faction Play and obviously that's not just my opinion. Many FP vets can put up with it occasionally as a change of pace but 5, 6, 7 matches in a row?!?

If Conquest is so popular (as the pro posts would have you believe) then why are groups disbanding at the sight of it? Even if you are a fan of Conquest, you have to acknowledge the vitriol that it is causing with many FP vets and then realize that's bad for the game.

You want Conquest? Play Quick Play. Play Comp. You have options. For those of us to dislike Conquest, what mode do we play?

Awww, i think you are just salty because your skillset of tactics is so dimensional like a blank sheet of paper lol.

Wannabe "elitists" like you are the most funniest, do you even have other mechs than ERPPC and ERLL? I think not Posted Image

Thats the reason you always get your *** ripped off Mr. Pro Gamer lol

I think conquest is rly good in fp. The respawn system gives it a total diffrent feeling, than any other mode.

But: up the points to 1500-1750 area.
Always siege in the rotation with a very high chance.
Fix or remove incursion.

Faction play fixed with just some minor changes.

Maybe position your group not 1000 m behind object, but in attackers path?

Siege should be the game mode for no less than half of FP matches and preferably more.

All of you complaining about too much conquest should come live in the Australian timezones and then you can experience the joy of domination on polar highlands 75% of the time...
