I definitely would.

Not getting Lancer for my last 25 URs...
Many new-players coming into PuG gold games..
Getting desperate with credits and RNG..
Many good new camping tools introduced.. (Talong, Geth Juggernaut, Recon mine)

I kinda miss FBWGG.


I definitely want to play good old FBWGG again.

Not only out of desperation,
but also for good relaxing camping fun.

Now looking back at it, I think FBWGG was good place for new players to learn about team synergy and cooperation.. and build confidence.
I started my gold games with FBWGG / GI.

FBWGG was boring as hell, but it wasn't a bad stepping stone. I wish more people had that farming experience on Gold instead of just jumping right in like the average PUG.

Pretty much this.

I met a bunch of cool people farming FBWGG honestly.

It is even easier to farm FBWGG now but I will not tell how. I discovered the new method, tested it for 4 games and completed all those 4 games in 16-17 minutes without Rockets.

It's still a good map for learning synergy and teamwork... along with spawn control.

Just requires moving around now is all.

People stopped doing FBW/G/G?

Back when I still played (month or so ago) I'd run into those lobbies frequently. And they were always hosted by damn Canadians.

God damn syrup drinkers.

There are many ways to farm different maps...

but the real charming point of old FBWGG PuG game was that it required no instruction...
even brand new players would get it quickly after few deaths what people were doing and join in.

For farming, a friend and I do FBW/R/Gold. Easy, and we can solo the rounds when we get stupid PUGs that charge Banshees and get sync killed at the start of every round (true story).

I would, but only for old time's sake. Not for the creds anymore.

Oh, and bring back the old Krysae as well. Need to snipe some Rocket Troopers from the vantage point down below.

Edit: Would it technically be possible though with people who have Retaliation uninstalled?

It is too slow to be worth it really. And pugs can ruin even FBWGG.

I did it back in the day, but I don't need to do it now normal gold is faster and less boring because ive gotten better at the game since then. IMO it wasn't that bad really and it was a good stepping stone for those starting gold. Right now I'm pretty much farming plat speed runs to get credits.

  Or  you could l2p, didn't want to bring out that old bit of tripe but it's fitting here. Exploiting a map teaches nothing about team synergy nor does it make you a better player. Look at the folks who camp the box in rio, drop them in a regular match and you'll see that they've learned jack squat.

Funny, I'm watching as BSN approves of FBWGG where they used to hate everything to do with it, almost more so than Rio.

Anyways, I'd probably go back to farming every once in a while. It was relaxing. Though it is still very doable.

I only did it when i needed medigel. I would just farm for 2 hours and buy all jumbo equip packs. Honestly, I would do the same thing if i still could. Now, I just use Rio platinum if I need equipment packs.

**** no. Honestly,I think it teaches you a bunch of bad lessons about how to play the game, so I don't even think it's a good stepping stone for new players.
