1. Whoever controls B wins the match.
2. There is no mini-map.
3. You can only check the scoreboard if you open the map.
4. If you want to check the map, you must first click Z to remove the scoreboard.
5. You must listen to a kill quip each time you die. This gets annoying when the kill quip is 15 seconds long (Valkyrie).
6. Nobody misses their shots for some reason, even level 10's.
7. Abandon penalty.
@BIamBoozIe Control is awesome, maybe you're just bad at it?
NO, I am NOT serious, lol! But you know that's like a required reply. I happen to LOVE control, but if I didn't get my stupid diamond badge, and made arguments like BR sucks, people would be like, NUH YU'RE BAD AT IT, and dismiss it outright, because people.
A lot of what you suggest would improve it a lot. 2. is absolutely true, add a mini-map. 3. You can check the scoreboard in game, on PS you hit the center button. I don't know for PC but I'm sure it's there. 4. Yes, the priority should be showing the map, and then the option is to look at the scoreboard, not the other way around. 5. This is, like many games, just about kicking someone when they are down and using the excuse 'it's just a game'. I'm pretty sure being a good sportsman is part of a game, and trash talk is a happy excuse in the anonymous video game culture. Respawn is definitely about being a tool to the person you kill. 7. Yes, a penalty, but also incentives for people finishing matches. Both together, not one or the other.
I think you want to like Control but have some legit beef with the way it is now. As much as I love it, it can be improved.
@KelRiever I think Control is a great addition to the game, but it needs massive improvement. Besides fixing the things I mentioned, maybe add a fourth base. This way, players aren't fighting for one zone. Because let's face it: nobody is fighting for A or C. Because after someone has captured one of those bases, they just leave immediately, and all you haft to do is recapture it.
Kill quips shouldn't be in Control. You die way more often than you would in battle royale, so it's annoying to hear them over and over again. In BR, it's funny, especially some characters' kill quips, like Mirage's, and they kinda help de-dramatize the game.
@BIamBoozIe You will never hear that Control is perfect as is from me!
I want you to know that I find people do attack A and C, but most people don't know when. And if you are going to play alone, with no premade, it's harder (sure 6 players are pub but that's a lot less than 8).
I would encourage you to try mobility and/or defense characters for attacking that enemy zone. Knowing when to cut off is important too, but I would say you can def do it solo. Defense characters as a priority should go to B, but sometimes you cannot take B due to skill problems from your team, i get that.

Kind of map-dependent maybe? Wattson and Caustic are ridiculously strong on Barometer for back capping and holding it. Come to think on it, it's possible that Barometer was removed because of the home points being small, enclosed spaces, since both of the other maps have open points that are less given to cheesy defense.
@BIamBoozIe 8. Free weapons choice, i'm tired of seeing blatantly unbalanced kits. (Shotgun and sniper together compared to an AR with shotgun? Seriously? Who did even think about that?)
