i've played it alot recently and to me it seems its the n00bs version of TDM, its not that i don't do well on it, my best 2 games were on it 53-1 and 66-2.
but people who aren't very good seem to play it because its the only way they can get kills, when the other team are focused on objectives.
My favourite mode is Core team deathmatch, i have no problem getting kills in that and keep a good k/d in it every game.
I find tdm the easiest mode, but i have played with average to below average people and even though im destroying at TDM and we are winning every game, they constantly ask for us to play domination.
so why do you play domination? for the cheap kills because you can't do anywhere near as well on Team Deathmatch? or do you play it properly.
it just really annoys me, that people always want to play domination, even though we are winning every TDM game. then 1st game of domination we lose but there still happy because they actually got more than 5 kills lol

My number 1 reason for playing Domination is the with 80% certainty, I know where the enemy is going to spawn... not to spawn trap them, but to avoid having them spawn right on top of me. The spawn system in MW2 is absolutely broken. Even in domination there is no gaurantee. That's why I said 80%.
BTW, jumping on flags is not the only way to be a team player. I don't need the points to rank up, so I will assist others while they are capping. You can also defend flag(s). How I play depends on my team. If they are aggressive and capping flags, I will tend to hang back and cover them. If they are camping, I'll throw on marathon and lightweight and go get the flag myself myself.

Domination isn't exactly for cheap kills. I favor domination so much because there is no time limit or kill limit and the average game lasts about 12 minutes compared to TDM which lasts 10 minutes or until a team reaches a total of 75 kills which usually doesn't take longer than 7 minutes. Also in Domination you can take as many kills as you want and not worry about ending the game. I have gotten over 100 kills in Domination before and that just wouldn't be possible in TDM.

the whole point though of domination is to capture objectives, when people get these immense scores its not from running around getting the flags its from camping flags until they get chopper gunner then just raping the other team with it, and as soon as they die they work on the next chopper gunner, its not difficult to get 3 chopper gunners when your sitting there picking people off.
if you got all those kills whilst capturing 50 flags then all credit to you, although i very much doubt it.
thats exactly why i hate domination, if you want kills come play TDM with me where it takes abit more skill to get high scores, people camp somuch on domination that the modes a complete joke usually

But what I'm trying to say is I don't ****ing camp! I run and gun, and yes I do capture flags when I'm near them and they need to be captured.
