I always wished battlefield would steal the domination mode from warthunder where you land planes on landingstrips to capture flags

After reading the article, it sounds like player controlled bot squads vs player controlled bot squads. :/

This game now has infantry, but it still does not have the late game artillery?

Not having artillery is the main draw to get people away from World of Tanks

I mean yeah their game does natively support linux anyway. I did however sadly notice it runs way worse on linux than it does on windows.
