Just curious - why no TDM?

I know this has been asked before, but I still haven't seen a reason from the dev group.

Why can't we have TDM (Team Death Match) server?

There may be a very legit reason not to have TDM (heard once something about exploiting multis), but i'd urge for there to be one if its possible to make it work somehow because I really feel a good portion of people in both battle and siege would actually prefer TDM (and actually play accordingly to the anguish of others).

Apologies if this has been brought up 100million times, but was just curious to see why not.

Even just giving it x1 like duel should be okay.

TDM?

Sorry, Team Death Match.

Its basically battle but you respawn.  The team with the most points after the time is out wins.

Think Crpg is currently too small for an other (active) server with a different gametype.

I agree, this is needed, to give new players a chance to grow their skills if nothing else.

I mostly play siege because it allows me more rapid opportunities to get into the action, but all the same, I want to learn teamwork, which siege lacks almost entirely...

TDM would give me both!

A) I think more people would come back if TDM were released
B) If some people simply shifted from battle/siege to TDM, there would still be enough people to sustain the other servers... often times EU1 or NA1 is so full its a mess anyhow, and same sometimes with EU2 or NA2.

I'll +1 just because I'm sure there's people who would "come back" or "get into" cRPG if there was TDM, I just worry it will pull people from an already small player base, and split the server populations even more.

Is there enough people to have both Siege and TDM?

Couldn't it run exactly the way siege does?

Well, with the new system of score and the upcoming "multi-source" multiplier system, I think TDM could work better than in the past.

Multiplier in all game modes will "soon" be based on a mixture of team's outcome and personal performance.

Would prefer it if they fucked with EU_1 instead, if they alter 4 I bet it will start raining.
1H stab is the fastest, strongest and longest 1H animation. There's no reason NOT to use it in all instances. I don't know if it's OP, but it's boring. 1H used to be fun because you had a fast (left), long (right) and the most devastating attack (stab) and had to choose the best attack for each occasion.
