Regular Gunfight is a CORE Gamemode

Regular Gunfight and OSP are two COMPLETELY different game modes which is why one should not be swapped out for the other. Both modes are the same at their core (2v2 match, first to eliminate the other team wins) but they play completely differently.

• SND and Cyber Attack are the same at their core (plant a bomb and defend until time expires or kill all the players of the opposing team) but both of these modes play COMPLETELY differently too.
• Kill Confirmed and TDM are the same at their core (kill the players of the opposing team) but are still two completely different modes.

You wouldn't remove SND for Cyber Attack or TDM for Kill Confirmed because SND and TDM are CORE game modes. Regular Gunfight is SND or TDM and OSP is Cyber Attack or Kill Confirmed. Regular Gunfight is a core Gamemode and should be available concurrently in the playlists with OSP, it should not be one or the other.

Problems with OSP

• Reduces the skill
  • OSP is a game of chance since the game mode relies heavily on what weapon your team gets versus what weapon the other team gets
  • Gunspawns are inconsistent so your team might have an inferior loadout compared to the other team
  • You are forced to sprint around the map to pick-up weapons, making you vulnerable to the other team
• Reduces strategizing
  • Strategizing based on your loadout is impossible since you have no idea what loadout you are going to get
  • You can't strategize on how you are going to move around the map since you are forced to sprint to a weapon
  • Pushing the other team together is extremely difficult since you have to split up at the beginning of the round so both of you can get good weapons
  • You and your teammate must focus on running to the weapon first before executing any type of strategy
• Hill is even worse on OSP
  • Seemingly Random gun spawns
  • Hard to see the weapons on the ground

Conclusion

You have a loyal player base for Gunfight and it is a crime to take it away from us. I realize that some people might like OSP over regular and that's fine. I'm not asking you to remove OSP, all I'm asking is that we have both at the same time. Please just add back regular Gunfight.

Please upvote this until we are heard by IW.

TLDR

Regular Gunfight and Gunfight OSP are the same at their core but are COMPLETELY different game modes, like how SND and Cyber Attack are the same at their core but are completely different. You wouldn't remove SND for Cyber Attack because SND is a CORE game mode and the same goes for removing Regular Gunfight for OSP. OSP has a lot of problems. Gunfight has a loyal player base.

Edit:

I just wanted to expand upon some of my points and give some more feedback but have decided to move it to a comment since it is long and I thought it took away from the main point of the post. The comment can be found here if you’d like to read more.
