I’ve so had it with this endless cycle. Every season, hit registration breaks, abandon penalties make no sense, skill based matchmaking sucks, and characters get nerfed! Here are my complaints that I’m sure will go unheard but I’m going to vent it out anyways....
1) hit registration, once again, has done down the pooper this season. Bullet hits are heard, blood splatters, no damage is done. This has always been an issue with heavy weapons, but now has expanded to all guns and is incredibly frustrating.
2) yes let’s nerf pathfinder into nothing and take away one of the few characters that I actually enjoy playing. With the cool down time on his grapple and the low profile nerf, pathfinder is now slower than octane, wraith, bloodhound, and Loba. There was no reason to raise the cool down time on pathfinder so dramatically (15 to 35 seconds). I never saw any complaints on these message boards about pathfinder, yet the developers decide “hey we don’t think he should be able to grapple twice in one battle”. Why!? We LIKE pathfinder and now he is barely used.
3) damn this supposed Skill based matchmaking. I’m getting silver ranked players ON MY TEAM in my platinum lobby, and I’m getting players at level 24 on my team in pubs (I’m level 445). Maybe my skill level is that of a 24 level player you say? Well fine, but don’t give me the two nubes and put me up against squads with all diamonds and masters. Where is the logic in that?
4) love getting an abandon penalty or losing ranked points when one of my squads members quits. I’ll finish a game by myself, but get no loss forgiveness, meanwhile if I leave a game because my squad mates have lagged out due to inactivity, I get penalized for it because the system thinks they are still in the game. It’s a really great way to make someone want to rank up and play your game!
overall, or course I’m going to whine and complain about all of this, but I’ll still end up playing and wanting to chuck my controller across the room. What else is there to do nowadays anyways? Crap hit reg and needless changes are going to catch up to this game eventually though.

@GoSoxAV8I do kinda agree 15 to 35 is alittle much and maybe a 25 or 30 cooldown would of been better but I tried pathfinder out and hes no wheres close to useless, his tactical is more in line with wraith and llobas now where you gotta save it for when you need it or risk being stuck in a fight, pathfinders 15 second cooldown was too fast and he had an escape button constantly so he needed the nerf

@GoSoxAV8I know it's tough when you lose a game because of the no reg issue but you gotta be more forgiving knowing they work from home because of the current pandemic, Honestly I'm surprised they pulled it together and came up with all this new content #staypostive
More forgiving? For breaking hit registration EVERY patch? For releasing games that need hot fixed EVERY GD TIME?
and sorry...the "working from home" excuse doesn't register.
Do you really think that a coder - who is making an ON-LINE GAME - is really going to be held up by having to work ON-LINE from home??
