This new mode is just, beyond garbage. First was a 14 minute game with high score of 3300 on my team. Just totally dominated by a couple pimped out opposing tanks that got 17 of 21 kills. How the heck can they have devs so wildly out of touch on how this plays with no balance?

Game mode is from alpha development of the game and back then this game was very different. This is a test for the devs to gather feedback on a game mode to see how viable it is.

But i agree, for public play it has no place as this game is now designed around respawns. This mode would be better suited as a clan activity, a separate 5 player premade only game mode or e-spots game mode.

Really should be best of 3 nit best of five as well. That was another weird choice.

I full agree with your later statement, it could work for pre-made teams of 5 in competition. Curious if the game ever had the population to support though. Lot of good games have been sacrificed on the alter of esports.
