I'm aware that the Warmap will be bringing Attack and Defend game modes back into it, however... Could we have Attack and Defend re-enabled while were waiting on the Warmap? They would make a nice change of pace, and perhaps encourage a bit of different gameplay on different maps.
This has been mentioned by various people left right and centre, but I thought I'd make a suggestion post so other threads dont get hijacked.

I mean I know Obama was the first one in EiR to get a card. and tbfh the Race card is pretty OP. but Romney has the K.K.K., those guys seem to camo anywhere. So OP units from both sides.
At the end of the day, however, stormtroopers finally got the anal invasion with a cactus they have richly deserved for years.

Nothing's stopping you guys from playing them.
I think the technically the modes are a bit wonky, but if you choose it, one side is going to attack and one side is going to defend. (i just dont know which)

everyone wants to do ME, its hard to get a game otherwise, people are comfortable with it. Before ME, R+ was all the rage.

Dafuq man, don't ask for proof if you'll refuse it if it's not in your favor, logic fallacy for the bloody win.

Make it random and make the game about skill.

bug with attack/defend atm is this i think:
attackers get to defend while getting the attack messages and extra pop.
defenders get to attack while getting the defend messages and no extra pop.

so if there is a stack,make other side attackers,this way weaker side will get a bit more advantage,it wont help em in the end probably,but they will certanly have easier start  |

Just in case u blokes didnt realize it. Attack is much easier to play. Instead of spreading ur units across the map u can just triple one guy. While defenders have to spread out Tbh i love attack games. And after 5 mins the defenders are on the attacking side

The difficulty of attacking depends on two variables: How many offmaps you have. How many on map artillery pieces you have. That is all  . Breaking ATG walls vs 3 americans isn't an easy feat. It's easier to attack if you're on the allied side as PE are generally bad at holding the line due to lack of support weapons. |

3v3 & 4v4, yes, 2v2 nope. and i think now PE could be good defenders. Luft and SE both have some better static options than before and with the mobility of the 50mm, if tanks start hitting somewhere, it's a lot easier than a pak or 57 to switch and attack. same with an iht people still haven't recovered from the old eirr and realize that pe is one of the stronger sides now especially SE. No one plays luft much anymore cuz no more phase armor. |

r+ (3 m8 start or something) and attack/defend (hint hint 10 firecracker ketten and 5 munition minefield HT start) are top game modes for gimmick companies  and realize that pe is one of the stronger sides now

This is why we need to bring back attack/defend - random only matches. Firecracker and mine spam will be great if you are defending, but if the coin flip makes you attack, you become a weak link on your team.
It would force people to build non spam companies and learn to fight with strategy and skill.
