    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

    The pubbies are already forming three-man skirmishing groups. Relax.
    Just when I thought I was out...they pull me back in!

    LMAO ... small groups of Rambos not working together is NOT a formation, is nothing new nor is it helpful.
    Bum rushing to houses and hunkering down to wait out the timer is such a change from bum rushing to a fence line or specific set of rocks, hunkering down and waiting out the timer.
    Yeah this mode is so different, unique and enjoyable.

    Well, it isn't all bad I suppose ... we can still head back to Drill Camp and oooo and aaaah over muddy footprints like before this 'game changing' patch. /facepalm

    No one is forcing you to attack an enemy in a superior position to yours.
