Fix Third Partying
Now that yous have tried & failed to combat 3rd Partying with a Legend, maybe now try what the community says and lower the Guns Audio. Its just stupid how I can hear fighting 400m away.
I think that third partying also is a "problem" due to the way many people like to play the game, including me at least in Casual. That is; pick up a R99 and PK, run towards every single fight and push in to close range like a maniac without a single strategic thought in my mind =)
If you actually use your brain when playing, there are many things you can actively do in the game to at least minimize the chances of getting third partied. I think the map awareness is one of the most important factors here. Depending on your teams position on the map in relation to the enemy teams position when engaging each other, it is pretty easy to estimate a probability of a third team joining the fight in from which direction they most likely will come from.
Some people just dont think about these things. One guy I play alot of ranked with who is a good player can literally spot one team close to the south, then spot another team close to the north and want us to push the team in the north. And when I say that we 100% will get third partied by the team to the south, he answers "oh I didnt think about that" =)
I agree, if you really care only about survival and want to avoid being third partied because you find it THAT annoying, then take a good look at where teams drop from the jumpship. You can easily pick out a less crowded side of the map and can predict where the first team you could encounter can come from. And what rotation will be less likely to encounter other people.
