I had a go at the Carrier game mode. It can be best described as chaotic. It begins with domination but turns very quickly to rush. So quickly that most of the players are still running about trying to cap flags that are no longer important. There just isn't enough time to get back onboard to defend your m-com's. For what is quite a complicated game mode the rounds are over surprisingly quickly. One minute your capping flags the next there are some warning about your carrier and it's all over before you can respond.

Nothing like Titan mode from 2142. As Pen says, it can be over quite quickly. The maps don't feel all that big either, and the inside of the carrier is very confined, with only 2 comms points to destroy. Not balanced for a large server, you need enough people to stage a defence and attack the flags, say 16, but when the carrier is breached and you have maybe 12 people in there it turns into a fragfest. The original Titan mode was great, huge maps, ships you got lost on, choke points at the objectives. And you could also defend the area around the Titan before it was breached.Seems to me this was rushed through without any input/ testing from actual gamers.

Once we have had a chance to have a run about I'm sure we will figure it out. Are there other game modes on these new maps?
