TDM, again. It's so stupid, especially when team mates are not really up for it.
I'm seriously considering just uninstalling the game now. But probably not.

This week has been brutal...thanks to TDM, I'm now falling back to E2...not that I really care...I don't...no I mean it...I don't care...
Anyhoo...
Yah, my hatred for TDM is slowly (well not so slowly) coming back.

I used to feel the same, but my opinion has changed somewhat. In my experience, the enjoyment of TDM depends on the opponent and the map. I had back-to-back TDM battles in Dead City today (my favorite map). In the first match, the reds camped out on their side of the map and pew-pew-pew sniped for the duration, barely moving off their positions. This match was boring as hell, ending 9-10 or something pitiful like that. In the second match, the reds were much more active and actually moved from spawn (other than laterally, to find cover). It ended 28-25 or something like that, and was much more fun to play.
I avoid TDM on huge maps like Yama or SF. Canyon is hit-or-miss on the fun factor.
The inconvenient truth is that silver payouts are higher for TDM & Domination, so it's worth it to me to hang in & try to play hard, reap as much Ag as I can from those matches.

the main problem with TDM is that pilots tend not to "move". This game mode is so so so so so boring when pilots are camping. Less kills, less silver, long game time, long waiting times, few movements, same gold rewards. Something must be added to this game mode to motivate the pilots in TDM... like a single center beacon.

Just get rid that TDM and KOTH and make it real KOTH that is single center beacon.

Good or bad, that doesn't justify the existence of random mode.
*Random mode big hater as always*

When Dom and BR were mashed together in Random I played my all light bot profile in TDM exclusively to avoid getting LPQed for dropping out of BR matches. Actually had a blast harassing enemy campers. It was like, "Dooon't!", "Stop it!", "I don't want to fight!", "Leave me alooone!", "Mommy, they're touching me! Make them stooop!", "I can't hit him with my Zenits, no fair!". Meanwhile I wailed away at them and ruined their perfect hair. Scored my best game with that profile on the Canyon map with over 800k. Not too shabby for 7/7 equipment and all Destriers to boot. Damn but I really miss that profile. If I tried to run a similar profile in the Amazon servers though I'd never win a single match. The MM is actually too good at matching players there. Or I should say balancing matches based on rankings at least. If I ran an all light profile it would still match me with an opposing Champion who would be running light bot crushing equipment. Noooo thanks.
