I agree, a Team Duel mode should be added, the problem with playing Jedi v Sith in Open is because you will always have one guy who chooses trooper or something, and to make it worse, you only have one life each. In Duel Servers however, everyone is either Sith or Jedi (so teams already made) and have 6 lives so game play can be longer than 30 seconds for most new Saber users. If a Duel server with Team based combat is not in the works or is not even planned for, I understand. But at least allow a typical Duel server to allow this kind of game play, some of us MBII players love team based game play. I also believe the friendly fire to be an immersive and fun experience when fighting 2 v 2, it allows for more skilled players to really work together fluidly while newer players will hack each other to bits by mistake. Using newby players to slay their team mates is actually an effective way of dealing with a 2 v 1 situation or even 3 v 1. The experienced Jedi/Sith CAN beat a 3 v 1 if played properly. So I believe that Team Based Combat is very possible in Duel servers, it simply requires a learning curve for team based saber combat. If a Dev or Admin has any complaints about this or main gripes of why this is a bad idea other than the obvious TK problem that exists. Please let me know, because I believe there to be no good reason for a Team Deathmatch for Jedi v Sith to not be implemented, if you're afraid or being killed by your team mates, stay out of their way, work with them, don't contend for the kill, you'll just get in the way and be TK'd. Or just play with skilled team mates who protect and work team wise. Noobies are always going to be a TK hazard in any game in my opinion, you just need to get better at the team based saber combat aspect of the game. Basically it is a learning curve like everything else in this Mod, if you are a good 1 v 1 duelist, maybe it is time to start that 2 v 2 training, it is a whole new aspect of combat in the game that everyone seems to overlook because they are scared of TK's or "Lamers" in a Jedi v Sith War, if I was a Sith and I see a fellow Sith being double teamed, I would obviously jump into the fray and try to back stab or flank the enemy Jedi to save friendly Sith. I don't consider that kind of back stab a lame in my opinion, I call it a well used flanking tactic.
