Assist mode? Your high.... But still, that survey beacon is awful loud.

@TrashPanda340 The assist mode is about playing with friends who are new to the game without them being subjected to predator/diamond lobbies straight off the bat. What do you find distressing about it?

@Cabowse Why would I want the game to run completely different because I have somebody whos never played before on my team? Slow the heals, can't get a real shield?....

If you don't want to be subject to preditors and diamonds then don't play with preditors and diamonds. You can take pros and put them with noobs no matter how you nerf them. It's impossible to rebalance that and everyone will hate it.

I mean... really why don't you do the opposite. Just start everyone under level 50 with gold shields, a gold prowler, and a gold R301. I'll tell you why... because its a terrible idea.

Side note.

I really liked the rest of your post. 🙂

  @TrashPanda340 The assist mode is voluntary, so there is nobody forcing you to do it.
  
  As an example, I have been playing the game with friends recently and they have only just started playing. I want to play with them and show them different aspects of the maps and help them along but at the moment if I do that with my account it makes the game unbelievably hard for them because i'm around level 350 and a diamond rank. I would happily take a hit to my combat effectiveness so that I could play with them in their lobbies.

    @Cabowse Voluntary for who? You?... certainly not the lobby full of noobs that just had a bunch of preds and diamonds dropped with them.
    
    It will never work
