Disagree. I love flanking on Sepulcher and Dunes. It isn't a problem with the maps, map size, or game mode, it's a probably with a lack of experienced players in the lobby. Which is fine by me. I'm all about growing. I'll deal with it. 8)

I think you misread or I miscommunicated. In my opinion, grouping up and personal decisions matter more the fewer ships there are, as you make a larger contribution. Larger ship counts let you have flankers without worrying as much about not being grouped up. Flanking is even more advantageous in 4v4 than 3v3 and 2v2, since you lose less firepower from your main fleet to have a flanker.

I'm not sure if you think that I think flanking is bad or something, but I love flanking. I have very average reactions and technical skill in all games, so I rely the surprise factor and flanking to make up for it.

That "but" made me think you didn't think it was possible in 4 vs. 4 matches for whatever reason even though you did think it was possible in 3 vs. 3. Miscommunication, then. That confused me. Sorry!

Get more people voting in here. Find people that don't visit the forum and tell them to vote! Just forum goers would be a bad cross section. Every vote matters. Voting in polls is not just a right, it is a DUTY! Don't make a kitten cry.

Hoja Lateralus:
I think 3v3 KOTH should be a default way to play the game, as 2v2 dm is now.
*3v3 is more tactical than 2v2 in general
*point of conflict makes people go into fight quickly, makes a match more purposeful and prevents canyon/dunes bullshit
*if you have troubles with grasping KOTH mechanics it clearly means that you should turn off the computer and ask your mommy to buy you some coloring books.
The drawbacks are of course:
*necessity for bigger lobbies
*riddiculously small map pool for KOTH

Also 4v4 matches are hard to judge since they have like... 3 maps? Dunes, Sepulcher, Sepulcher-CK? I think 4v4's are like Bo5 matches in CS:GO - maybe not very good for everyday thing but very good in right doses at right times.
