I get that some people didn't like it, but removing a seasonal game mode a week after the season drops seems to be a little premature dont you think?So the only way to guarantee that you play on Redacted is Conquest? Oh and no Rush at all in AOW? What franchise is this?

@Adamonic I feel it's premature as well. They could have kept it going for another week I think, especially as completing X rounds on Redacted is a weekly mission and it would have been nice to have the option. Ah well. Guess I'll either just play Conquest (can't remember the last time I played it to be fair) or just stick to Portal.

Oh and no Rush at all in AOW? What franchise is this? I'm wondering if it was due to lack of play? I had issues getting a full match fairly regularly, but hard to know if that was matchmaking or lack of people playing that game type? (as even over the weekend I found matches with AI during "all time high" player counts).That said, I found the matches I was in to never make it past the A point for the attackers. Maybe it needed more time for players to figure out strategies for pushing through, but maybe they had enough reports of the same that they are re-tooling the breakthrough way?

@Adamonic "Oh and no Rush at all in AOW?"That's me out for another week. I'm not being herded into game modes I don't want to play. Plenty of other games to play and spend money on.

@Adamonic We (Couple of buddies and I) couldn’t even get a 64p redacted breakthrough last night, was only 730 PST in NA servers. Crazy.

Playing Redacted Conquest has to be the most I have ever been shot in the back. It is comical at this point. I don't understand how I can have teammates and cover between me and the enemy, and somehow I'm targeted from across the biodome with at least 6-8 teammates shooting at the enemy. Is anyone else experiencing this? It is like they aren't even there. As I wait for my revive timer to run out with 5 medics in range, I watch as this enemy player just runs around right past my teammates who don't even seem to know or care that he is there. The game sync can't be that far off can it?

There's almost nothing in this game that works as it should. In the same way, most of the changes and actions of a team of geniuses cannot be explained by logic and common sense. No one understands what is going on here.

I mean there is a Week 2 mission to play Redacted 6 times and they said you could accomplish missions in any mode yet Conquest is the only one playing Redacted.

Why would Rush ever be removed? Control is nothing like it.

@Adamonic I'm assuming Rush is the least popular on the Rush/TDM tab. They started removing Rush throughout the Redux borefest and have decided to carry it into season 6 replacing it with Control. TDM never gets rotated.

These game mode rotations are infuriating.

@Adamonic Agreed I am wondering if dice have reviewed the stats for breakthrough and maybe looking at doing a map fix idk.

I love breakthrough on the redacted map BUT even if the game is 50/50 human players and ai its a **** show, sadly majority of the BT games coming from oceanic server were just that.

If the BT games are full of human players then you can quite easily hold them off at the choke points in B and no further than C.

At the end of the match you usually get yawn/boring etc comments

Conquest games were always full and fun.
