Frontlines...
Fun mode but given up on even winning since my team always gets pushed into the Mcoms and then unable to push back

Play recon, use the respawn beacon close to the objectives, and use smoke to manage to get inside the area objective. At last Mcoms switch to engineer and destroy the enemy vehicles
- There’s nothing recon characters can do at close range. While assault characters are throwing four bombs and armoring themselves, you don’t stand a chance. It’s a wrong assumption.
I wish the people who create these mods would play the games themselves. War is not calculated on paper.
It’s really bad that this mode continues to appear in the main menu for 11 more days. I wish they would remove it as soon as possible.

Blasco can run TUGs and the blackout spotting device which both provide spotting for you/your team + a spawn beacon and a grenade.
Not every game mode is made to be a sniper, just like TDM isn't great for sniping either.
@AnobixDon’t treat me like I’m a 5-year-old child. I dislike that. I’ve played this game as much as you have. If you didn’t understand what I’m trying to say, let me explain in more detail. I never said I couldn’t use these weapons. You know how to count, right? Now, think about how many bombs this character can throw? And consider how many bombs Blasco can throw. Additionally, this character can use armor. In a cornered chaos situation, how can you respond with Blasco to the consecutive bombs being thrown? How can you escape? I’m asking you. Would this character let you get close?
- @IIIWhiteWolfIII Not trying to treat you like a child. You've stated several times that your preferred playstyle is sitting back and sniping, which is perfectly fine, depending on the map/game type. And again mentioned trying to T1 the VCAR, which one of my buddies did early on and is ridiculous with it [and most other guns, frankly], but it never clicked for me the way it did for him. That said, the G428 or whatever DMR was great for me on Redacted, for example.
I played a heck of a lot of Redacted [so, close quarters] and never had much of an issue up-close against any particular class/character. I regularly played as Blasco, Falck, or Irish (honestly, exceptionally rarely played as any assault). Sure they have access to a grenade, and the scatter grenade, but they are largely avoidable with the big symbols on the screen pointing out to where they are located. I haven’t won a game it’s annoying AF always end up on the same side they don’t push just want to camp and collect kills.
Hated this mode. Completed the rewards in an hour by playing falck for first logistic ribbon then caspar for first intel ribbon then backing out of the game, rinse repeat
- @RUMPLE9 The rewards are bad anyways, it’s the battlepass bonus mission to WIN two rounds, and after playing probably 20 rounds I have a single win, and that was before I opened the darn mission. I’ve been top 4 all those rounds and bust my behind to PTFO. On average about 5 people on my team also do that, the rest have no interest in pushing. I wouldn’t normally care but I’m level 74 in the BP and the bonus mission is a full level skip which would take a few rounds to achieve at the current XP per battle point. I’m annoyed at the requirement to win when it’s not within my control.
- @ATFGunr Frontlines has been broken since it first came out. Seems you can run out of tickets and still go until the timer runs out. Should be run out of tickets no matter what happens its over.
