    All the maps should have all the modes.....there are maps without dominion mode that I can’t figure out what is the limitation to not allow it.

    They spend time on making maps work perfect,looks nice, blabla but not for the most played mod . Make no sense for me. on Duel or brawl i dont need new maps. Game begins u see ur opponent u run to it u fight , fight is over, game is over and u r out. MOST TIME you dont even look at right or left or whatever.

    That is true. Sometimes when playing Dominion I would pick a nice spot and just stand there for a few seconds enjoying the view and the map in general.

    But in other modes, there is less running around and definitely less time to relax so I am not sure that different map can help at all.

    You play against AI then?

    On PS4, except during the peak times or right after Orders have been released, you WONT find a non-dominion 4v4. At best you can wait 10 minutes to get a Tribute or Deathmatch.

    Thing about other modes is that it takes me around 20 minutes to get into one. Not all of us can spend whole day to play couple of matches.

    I get a group together and we search for Tribute. Usually we find one within 5 minutes. If I have the time or the inclination to wait for a Tribute match I go for it instead of the brandead derp parade that is Dominion in solo cue. I use PvAI when I want to fill an order and there's nobody doing Tribute.

    I'll gladly make an effort to avoid Dominion whenever I can. The way the average playerbase play Dominion like it's Skirmish with fancy glowing floors I think I lose braincells every time I do one in solo cue. Frankly I'd rather uninstall this game than be stuck with playing Dominion. If Breach doesn't kill it then I'm out.

    EDIT: The new map is gorgeous by the way. Well suited to Tribute. Kudos to the team they outsourced to. They did a fine job.

    Well, I would love to play other modes more often but for me it takes a lot of time to wait for one match. Today was different, I was able to get into 2 skirmish games, so lucky me lol.

    It probably helps you having a team, I am a lone wolf so it is kinda hard.

    Really like the map Secluded Keep, probably by far the best map in the game with several zones to fight in..And it shows with Deathmatch on Xbox being Medium Activity for both PvP and PvAi, that good map is drawing people in but for how long?

    Tribute with the Viking Village still stays at Low Activity. Maybe because playing capture the flag with a imbalanced cast of Heroes will only force players to play what's best instead of what's fun.

    They claim that Breach will also have unique maps, so maybe this will spread the players from Dominion apart, and hopefully make it less toxic to play. I don't like play Deathmatch because everyone just runs from you, but playing vs AI and just exploring the new map is very fun.

    Would have love to see this map as a Dominion map and have a team Siege the isolated Castle but Breach is coming soon and will have plenty of that.

    If they want to incentivise people to play the other modes, they should a) give more Exp in those modes and b) improve those modes.

    People play Dominion because it ticks every box. Gives most exp, easiest to find a game and its the most fun for most people as its a team affair on big maps that let them use the gear they've got
    .

    Dominion gives the most steel too.

    Hey vakris_one,if you're trying to prove how intelligent you are,how about using edit to change 'brandead' to 'braindead'? Kinda wrecks the whole vibe you're trying to give. You're welcome *******. Bring back team shuffle.

    Yeah well, I kinda do have to click on dominion. You’re not in my region so you wouldn’t understand, but even when I have had a group of 4 in the past, we spend 10 minutes waiting in the death match playlist and don’t find a game before we quit. 10 mins is roughly the same time as a Dom match, so that’s 1000 less xp I’m getting, less steel and just more boredom as we sit staring at a screen for a game that will never come. I know there’s other game modes, but unless it’s the weekend because I work weekdays, I don’t want to waste a quarter of my night trying to find tribute/elim matches that don’t exist. Just because you can find those matches doesn’t mean other regions always will. Using new maps as incentives will never be enough to draw players into that game mode permanently, and it’s absurd to think that it will. I don’t want to have to play with and agaisnt AI just to see a new map, it’s not fun, not a challenge, and a waste of time as the xp gain is minimal. No matter what way you look at it, it’s stupid to not give the most played game mode a new map.
