Why is TDM the most played mode on PC?

[FTL_FAM]

Title.

I own the game on PS4 and XB1, and ALL the modes are highly populated. Even the HC and Classic Modes with no Exo-movement.

I'm just curious why the PC Community plays nothing but TDM and/or DOM?

Uplink is a very fun game mode, IMO, but I don't see any games for it on PC... :(

because TDM is at the top of the list and people are lazy ♥♥♥♥♥. It's always been like this

You must be stupid if you think thats the reason, its because its simple and a game is going fast :) it take max 5 min to play tdm atleast for me

On console you'll find tdm is the most populated playlist too. Only difference is more players that want to play other modes, meaning other modes are more playable.

If they made a separate Objective Playlist, they should add Double XP for that Playlist to encourage people to play them.

Also, it should be you only get DXP if you play the objective. Meaning, you can't just play DOM, Uplink like TDM. The kills would be reduced to like 20, or 30 points each and objectives (capping flags, uploading satellite) would be double what they are now like 400+ points.

Killing is still a major factor. I know in more competitive matches you tend to have at least one person who just kills. He keeps the enemy dead so that the rest of the team can continue and push the objective.

I feel that a small number indicating the amount of people in a given playlist would go a LOOONG way towards populating game modes other than TDM and DOM. I don't think that alone would balance it out, but I do beleive it would help.

The problem is that you're asking for a feature on a platform that's proven to be ignored. I should have purchased the game on console, but I haven't used a controller in a long time, I'm always mobile and I got it for a lot cheaper than $60.

True, Slayers have their place.

The problem, however, is in public matches everybody wants to be a Slayer and not an Objective player because all they care about is their K/D ratio.

That's why I suggested they do something to emphasize Objective play by rewarding it more than just running around and Slaying people all the time in Objective game modes.

They kinda do reward objective players since they get a lot more points/exp, but when people only care about getting kills, and when gun camos and cosmetics needs kill challanges it also pushes people to be slayers.
