So grim... But then again I wasn't even playing this game when the post was made. Haven't had enough time to notice how slow things are changing.
I wasn't playing when the OP was made either, but my brother was and I remember watching him when I visited. It was mainly a team death match then and it still is and quite frankly I can't think of any other game mode that would make it different and work. It's sad too because a lot of people never get into the game or get bored with it because of that. What is needed is not new game modes, but rather a structure where victory or defeat in a match make difference.
Irony is that after my capping comment I got to watch a demolition of our team and die as 10th to fall.... only to ghost a 100% VTR-9S armed with an AC20 and full SRM 6's... who had been capping all game. When they went to hunt him down he shut himself down until taking damage. Then died without even firing a shot I think. Not like we needed that assault to help stave off their direwolves, timberwolves, k2's and shadowhawks. PS: The capping spider I understood the 65 or so KPH VTR... no... just NO!
