It's FRIDAY Jim, but not as we know it!

Sadly, not really possible with MWO: you can get friends to play with you on your team as a group, but no AI bots means you're always against enemy players.

I regard the spawn camping as a critical failure on our side to act as a proper team: we let the enemy push too far, and they just straight up outplayed us that far. Having achieved a superior curbstomping position by their cooperative competency to that point -- well, it sucks to be on the receiving end but the solution is to get friends you can work together with and come in as a team. The mode is designed to reward that kind of play.

I don't dispute the value of teamwork.  If your side could have cobbled together a plan and the units to drive them away, that would be optimal.  I still think it's a dick move to shut down your opponents spawn site.  I'm sure if the positions were reversed, the wailing and gnashing of teeth would have been just as bad.
