CM is a real game mode where a strat and some teamwork/coordination would come in handy. SC is a FFA where you can only kill half the people in the server, and they spawn behind you every 15seconds. Exhilarating.
Though I doubt anyone has scrimmed or anything, but I think CM would be a shitload better than any of the other modes. SC is just shit full stop.

What he said.....
Cant think of anything worse than playing a mode were a lock down is pretty much impossible because the enemy spawns behind your lines. On the other side of that theres also the potential for cheap ass kills by marking those spawns for the instant kills. why on earth the gods of the game thought random spawns on a sector mode would be a good idea I have no idea.
Combat Mission seems to be the easiest game mode to play competitively imo. Will allow the use of teamwork, with a timer. Therefore making it somewhat competitive.
it looks no different to the spawn screen 'spectate' when youre on cm, its even shaded darker like it, with no first person and probably no free cam then its useless.
Spectator mode. Looks like there is free-cam, apparantly you can do it now in all the modes however once you are in spectate mode you can't change out unless you exit the game. Atleast shoutcasting is possible.
It's a bit of a weird one. First you have to add the name of the character you want to be a spectator into the reserved spectator file on your server. Then, when you join the server using that character name you are automatically put into specatator mode.
You will have to make a new character specifcally for spectating if you don't want to constantly have to change the server files when you are playing/spectating.

LOL this is what you get when shit companies are allowed to make games. standard stuff that gets tacked on after release and doesnt even fit into the game properly.
i like how 'deploy on front' literally translates to 'spawn on sniper closest to spawn' in ******** dice speak. a problem that existed in the first beta and obviously hasnt been touched.
