I want to try out the battlegrounds, but, I'm not sure how good they really are. There are a bunch of modes out there and I'm curious to see which one is the best (as in the most fun)...

    Capture the Relic
    Capture the Relic, then all the other objective modes. Deathmatch is my least favorite mode.

    Deathmatch
    10/10 doctors agree. Chaos Ball and Domination are no fun.

    anything but deathmatch, though in terms of actual game mode i would say crazy king is the best

    i would have said chaosball, but they would have to remove getting the ball into places that could not be reached and far far less tanky players to make it more enjoyable

    Domination
    i like domination the most, but any others except Deathmatch are fun(unless people try to turn it into Deathmatch by not playing the objective and only killing each other)

    Then chaosball if people aren't exploiting out of bounds or running at 200 movespeed in laps around the map
    Capture the relic WOULD be fun with 2 teams
    So would crazy king and domination. But 3 teams just results in people avoiding fights for empty flags and relics.

    Capture the Relic
    I don’t understand the hate for capture the relic I think it’s a perfect mix of strategy from objective modes and pvp from deathmatch. It only gets sad when one team is so bad that you can walk in (even while they’re there), grab the relic, and leave.

    I remember after one particularly gruesome match (forget the game mode), one of my team mates was griping about spawn camping.

    The map was Eld Angavar.

    Just goes to show that some people complain without thinking. Can't handle losing, and I get the feeling people lose more often in CTF than in other game modes. No single player can carry CTF since it's the only mode with roles that need to be filled and played, and there's no real way to coat tail a win. You can dominate in kills, but place last & last from not playing the objective.
    Thank you for coming to my T E D talk

    Domination
    I like the variety of different matches (not a fan of the one-game weekends) though I’m pretty tired of chaosball. If I get bored with bgs, I might look for the one or two “back biters” who completely ignore the chaosball and rack up maximum kills wailing on/pelting players running after the ball, and tie them up with duels.
