Someone explain frontlines to me please ^^

I've only run it 3 times but I have no idea what I'm doing and I don't wanna be the member of the team who just runs around like a headless chicken :/

I've figured out that each of our 3 teams are going either left, right or straight on depending on if we are in A,B or C.

But what's the middle for? o.O
I went there a few times and was like.... whaaaa?

The middle spawns drones at 27:00,25:30-00, 23:30-00, 18-17:30-00 etcYour team must destroy these drones to get points. At some point a Nide will spawn giving you lots of points if you team destroys it. (i forgot how many points they give)

Team B basically breaks down like this:
- 1 or 2 people go to take the Outpost
- Everyone else combine forces with team A or C
- At the 27 minutes mark interceptor drones will pop at the Heliodrome, team B needs to be there for that as whichever faction gets the most damage on them gets points per drone.
- 3 minutes after the drones die, they'll pop again, etc. etc.
- At the 21:30 mark (i think) the interceptor node will pop in the middle of the Heliodrome. Same deal here except it has way more HP and is worth more points. Melee LB it if you can.
- In between adds up top you can run off and try to support the other teams

Because the PVP sub forum wouldn't be the best place to look........

Thanks for the useful link.
Shame that coming across as a nice person is so difficult for you though.
Maybe next time.

Well, that escalated quickly.

here let me google that for you.

The latest link must be recent, as when the FL came out there was no solid guide and SE one sucked... and that other link someone made 2 days ago.
I was confused myself, until I just tested the waters, but happy to see some help out now so people can now know what to do.
May jump into the fray again here soon because I personally thought it needed guidance in-game, maybe a tutorial or something.
It gives you 0 help when you first jump in the game and people are running around lost.
