    well, I read it and it sounded as if they left the starting point in small groups, sorry if i misunderstood that part.

    Never tried it, but I thought entering a spawn zone from the outside was not possible. So what hinders the people to wait there for a time and get out as a group? Then it is one alliance against the other

    It took a few minutes for people to realise that we had every Immortal Flame right outside the doorstep. You occasionally get people near the spawn so people just assumed it was a small bunch and rushed out to help people fighting, not realising that it was actually the entire Flames contingent waiting to butcher people. It was a few minutes before anyone said it in Alliance chat and it took a few more minutes to get people to realise that going outside was suicide. Not to mention, there were several of the Maelstrom scattered around the map at various flags who didn't return to spawn to join the break out until they had died. This took a long time for some of them.

    It's very easy to say, "Why didn't you just break out and kill them?" but come on, be realistic. This is Frontlines we're talking about. People rarely listen to instructions and no matter how many times people were saying "Don't go outside, you'll die!", people kept going outside. The co-ordination required that you are hinting at is massive and something that is usually beyond any pick up party. That we managed to break out at all is nothing short of miraculous.
