from personal experience its either you do really good and 3-0 or the other team is 3-0 or the occasion come back story so its not that I hate it, I just dislike it and would rather just play control point or escort/hybrid matches.
flashpoint is the best mode with the 2 best maps imo.
I like the idea of the game mode but my main issues with it is how damn big the maps are and this defo feels like something that was mean’t for a much larger player count. And i don’t mean like 6v6, im talking tf2’s 12 v 12 format here. Its really easy to get strayed away from your team and having team mates straying away and because of the size of it all it makes it INSANELY reliant on high mobility heroes its kinda crazy and limits your options imo.
I havent really enjoyed the india map yet but new junk city i have found to be pretty damn fun.
I heavily dislike Control maps, and Flashpoint just feels like an extended Control map to me. Now we have to win 3 points instead of 2.
It’s better than Push and 2CP. That’s all I can say.
hell yeah i love this map, unfortunately only got to play on it like ~3 times? It’s a very pretty map with good flashpoints.
What I like the most about Flashpoint is that there are many strategies, which makes me think of Overwatch in its 2016-2019 years before Role Queue. For instance, you can ambush a team that has captured a point while they’re running to get the second one by splitting your team into 2 groups.
Also, ult economy is very match changing and that also makes me think of Overwatch in its glory days.
Flashpoint > Push, anytime.
it’s sad that 2CP is not there as well. I would enjoy so much KOTH, 2CP and Flashpoint.
Escort, Hybrid and Push should get reworked to be as dynamic as the 3 modes I mentioned. Pushing a slow objective simply doesn’t work in 5v5, especially with RQ. The pacing is just weird.

I dont like it. I like slow methodic team gameplay over having a bunch of little fights taking place all over the map. Its too big
I kinda like the flashpoint but its still too chaotic to me
My only issue is the speed at which it takes to capture an objective. I understand it’s supposed to be fast paced, but multiple times, I have died when the enemy team has 70% capture, and it was not possible to group up properly to recontest.
Losing the first objective starts a large momentum push from the enemy, similarly in the Push gamemode. It’s very difficult to capture the 2nd objective if you lose the first. (Momentum and ult charge from the 1st).
Personally, the spawn and walking back wouldn’t feel so slow if the capture point wasn’t ticking so quickly. But overall, besides this, I really like the concept and the maps. I’m a huge fan of it, but the capture time should be slowed a little bit.
They need to reduce the map size by 50% or give everyone the lucio speed boost permanently. They need to stop with these walking sim modes.
i mean, I buy the dlc
BUT ONLY when they go on sale, since I play on console
Aaron get off your sneaky account
New junk city is lots of fun. Only played one game on it, haven’t tried the other map yet.
