Control LTM Feedback Megathread
- When the enemy is dominating the middle objective, and you sneak around to capture the controlpoint near the enemy base, nobody can even spawn there. For me this takes away all of the tactical poin...

@Midnight9746The lockout is pretty annoying, I understand the one for the enemy team’s base but for the middle one is pretty frustrating especially when they are just camping on top of B shredding or sniping you before you get anywhere near the place... its near impossible to get to B on characters like Wattson unless your teammates placed Jump pads strategically
I also want a safe zone because that masters wraith and diamond mirage kept spawn killing me the other day... I love control but its little things like this that ruin the mode I wish they would put an out of bounds timer on the top of B in Barometer because its fine to fight or defend the bottom and inside at the top of B but having people camp and snipe around the edges the whole game just ruins it when you take 1 step out of A or C and cannot safely get anywhere... for the players who don’t understand it just means you are fortunate enough to not be skilled enough to be thrown into these sweat fest lobbies yet full of nothing but smurfs, pros, and occasionally cheaters but idk I’m not any of the above XD unless you count aim assist
@TheApexLegendNub Most of the control games I've played, I had 1-5 people cheating, and 1-3 smurphs that I've noticed. Some of the cheaters were smurphs themselves. It was stated that these are "new players", but that doesn't explain the no recoil hipfire, where you can be off to the side, and the bullets magically hit you without the need for aim.
@Midnight9746I’m just getting tired of being bocek bow spammed this point, you just hear it and its near impossible to tell which direction its coming from... then I keep getting 4k 20 bomb players with thousands of kills in my matches completely ruining it... The best I have ever done is 2300 damage in BR so I should be matched against players who have done like 3k badges or less imo not 4k+ damage players
the problem isn’t necessarily the bocek bow, charge rifle, triple take, etc... the problem is how far apart A, B, and C are.... once the enemy takes over B all they have to do is start defending from a distance with a marksman or sniper and you are unable to get anywhere near B... its even difficult with a trident sometimes, this mode promotes spawn camping more than anything else... they need to add more ways to get to B or make the spawn points closer together or something the map is just too large and it’s difficult to travel on non movement based legends while being bocek bow spammed, charge rifle beamed, etc when you haven’t even left A or C yet... its even worse the closer you get to B and once you die you have to start all over and then they wonder why everyone leaves early... I’ve left 2 games in a row because I was bocek bow spawn killed nonstop I’m glad it’s finally out of weapon rotation and the game is playable again... (playable except for the fact that the enemy team had 4 players camping our spawn area because it was a 5 v 9... and they had A, B, and C captured)
when I imagined this mode in my head I thought we would be skydiving into the map like we do on Shadowfall or Team Rumble on Fortnite, I’m not a fan of the current spawn system because its too easy to spawn camp so I think they need to take your other suggestion and to make B the only point and then add a safe zone around A and C and only remove the safe zone during bonus rounds... then again idk because it wouldn’t stop them from being on top of B at barometer and stopping you with marksman/snipers unless they added an out of bounds timer up there...
"Why would smurphs bother to play this mode?"
I dunno... you tell me....
I recommend looking at the image below in a new tab or zoom in. These are clearly new accounts and they made up majority of the enemy team that dominated us. Would show that match in video form, but its difficult without "naming and shaming".
Scoreboard's image was taken when I saw the first 2 smurphs, so its not the final or near final score, but the smurphs were racking up 8-14 kills.This is me trying to show that we did, in fact, lost that match:
- @Midnight9746 I just had a 4 minute 20 second Control match, and then one that would have easily been under 2 minutes, but the enemy team decided that they would just farm kills instead of instantaneously win the match. They had all 3 points and were spawn camping us by the time our first point got around 2%.
- @StelioRokos This smurph team farmed kills while camping B. They got the capture bonuses, and didn't need to spawn kill us. Don't know why they let us survive 13 minutes though.
