I've decided that I don't like the new mode Team Death Match. The first few games were fun, but now, everyone has realized that their bot is a precious commodity in this mode and they've adopted coward tactics. Long range and mid range builds rule in almost every map. Even in smaller, more crowded maps, seems like everyone has gone to RDB, tridents, zeus and even spiral and hydra builds. Knife fighters get torn apart before they can get close. To combat this trend, I am spending the next couple of weeks doing nothing but leveling my hydras, spirals and zeuses.

Please feel free to rant. But I have a question for you about map size, I have played maybe 30 matches of TDM so far and the only maps I have had are Power Plant, Moon and Dead City. Have you gotten some of the larger maps KoalabearAnd no I’m not fond of the LR builds either I’m there to fight. |

I have played big maps also. Yamantau and especially Shenzen are total disaster.

Estoplast thanks for that piece of info. Guess I will get one sooner or later. Hopefully never. ? ?

The Moon is probably the best map for TDM. There isn't really any place for snipers, but spiral, hydra and aphid bots can rule. |

I have broken my high score and get more Silver thanks to TDM. I don't play it exclusively, but I do like it. I'm not saying this in response to the op in an effort to get him to change his mind; just offering up a different opinion. I think if I had a similar experience in matches, I would feel the same way.

I just find the mode and the matches I've had in it so frustrating since most of my builds are knife fighters. Sure, I've done the long and mid range thing, but I'm just too impatient. The other day, I dusted off my hydra Fujin and almost fell asleep. I did have one good experience. On the Moon, I watched as a Carnage snuck around the left side and I waited for him to go into rush. He didn't disappoint. So, as he came closer, I ejected, respawned in my Plasmahad and toasted him.  |
