Not sure if Ground Game will make the cut, but we are talking about expanding the LTM pool by quite a bit over the summer, so a lot of these that haven't been in rotation for a while will return. We might even switch off Team Rumble here and there and replace it with some of the other large team modes (gasp!).
Why would an LTM “not make the cut” and never return?
That would be if the last time or two it ran it had really bad playrate numbers. GG is one of those modes that has never been very popular, statistically speaking.
Please make team rumble perma...
There is no better option to do weekly challenges and some practice before main match than team rumble.
We are talking about rotating through large modes every couple days like we currently do with the smalls, not removing or replacing rumble for long periods of time. For example:
Sunday-Monday: 50s
Tuesday-Wednesday: Disco
Thursday-Saturday: Team Rumble
Ground Game and Barebones need to come back at a time that doesn’t overlap some major holiday, you’ll see better numbers then.
OK you guys talked me into it. We do have an open slot Friday, I'll see about getting GG flipped on and we'll see how it does. Will probably go with Duos.
OK it's on, you have about 24 hours :)
That’s awesome! My wife and I won quite a few rounds of Ground Game while playing on no fill anyway 😁
Hopefully tonight is game night then!
So, how did it do? Our group was obsessed.
Pretty well actually, I think we can start rotating it in.
Did everyone like it as Duos? The thought process was we wanted to enable some social play but also that four players would be able to destroy builds super fast, so we thought we’d try Duos this time.
Thanks for putting GG back into rotation, last night was a lot of fun :)
Yeah I had a blast playing it too. Hoping to be able to rotate it in more frequently, it did pretty well!
Any chance of having 50v50 anytime soon?
Yes, we are hoping to get it live pretty soon.
Thq so much!!!!
Any new changes to be made to the game mode? Like perhaps having reboot vans and stuff?
Not immediately, it will be the same as it was the last time we ran it for now.
May I ask why it wasn’t initially ran in the 14 days of summer even though it was meant to be? But thanks for finally listening to the fanbase who wants 50v50! :D
An LTM is never late... nor is it early. It arrives precisely when it means to!
Leaked info isn't always correct... we've been planning to bring the various big modes back into rotation, just hadn't quite settled internally when or how that would happen during our vacation. Due to the massive popularity of large team respawn modes, we decided to just let Rumble roll on throughout the 14 days and then figure out how and when to get 50s back in the game when our break was over.
Why are solo ltms rare. Even one got bugged and switched, so in all of the 14 days of summer event, we only got 1 solo ltm
We run them less often because they are played a lot less than duo & squad modes. In any given week, we try as much as possible to have something that appeals to as many of our players as possible, but it's hard to justify running Solo LTMs since people simply don't play them very much.
Hi Dusty. Hope you had a great Summer break! Will their be a chance that the Tag LTM would come back? I really LOVED playing it! 👍🙏
Glad you liked it! We still have to go through the numbers and see which modes were played enough to warrant bringing them back. I believe Tag was a little on the low end unfortunately, so not sure if it comes around again or not. :/
If I may ask back in season 5 wasn’t 50v50 very popular as it was run all the time? Why was the change to respawn modes needed?
It was popular before we started running respawn modes, the last couple times we ran it, it didn't do very well. But we will put it in the mix soon and see what happens!
Aww. That’s a shame. I really liked Tag. But anyways, I cannot wait to see what you and the Team have planned for future LTM’s! 👍
Keep up with the great work.
Thanks for the kind words & thanks for playing the game!
