    They say they listened but here is the part that I think disputes that statement ....
    "Due to the mode being a single life mode, formation requirements will be stricter than those found in the Skirmishes game mode, not allowing players to be “out of line” for more than 30 seconds."

    Really? We are making the ticket system and formations even more restrictive?
    We want less restrictive game play that actually encourages skirming and the solution is more closely packed lines?

    Let me see if I can adequately capture how this game is starting to make me feel ...

    The idea behind it is simple:
    Since there is just 1-life per soldier, it might be a boring round, if someone just sits and camp in a bush.
    Imagine all but 1 guy died during the round, the last one is just hiding in a bush for the last 12 minutes

    It's a solid addition. Should keep us happy for awhile. I have not been on yet but I want to know. Since we are patrolling our own camps will we be able to select any regiment to play as?

    Right now, the areas have pre scripted regiments. They might be random in the near future.

    I may have missed this is the report, but how many areas of that map are there available for this mode?
