@CCbathwaterWith how short Control matches are, it doesn't really make sense to take a 10 min penalty, when most of my matches are right around that long. Even when my team ends up outnumbered every now and then, it only takes a few minutes to finish the "batting practice" and queue up for another one. I have decent luck with my lobbies though, so I guess I can understand the frustration, if you keep getting stuck short-handed over and over.
Imo, if you are down by 3 or more people, you shouldn't get the penalty. Losing 2 people definitely doesn't mean it's a lost match, provided the remaining team mates are actually playing the..... objective!! That's the hard part though. Getting randoms to NOT treat it like TDM, and actually play the objective
- dSKyNafinchin4 years agoHero@CCbathwater Totally agree! I was just talking in general. There definitely shouldn't be a discrepancy between the warning and actual punishment

So, if the game is massively outnumbered, there is already a mechanic in place. You can get a lockdown on the opposite team by controlling 3 points. You're going to do that if you are super outnumbering a team most times, unless, frankly, the outnumbering team is really, really bad while the fewer in number are really, really good. Which is so rare I wouldn't be concerned.
Really, the penalty has to be something that matters. No, it should definitely not tell you to wait 2 minutes than hit you with 20. But if it isn't a 10+ minute penalty I doubt it would matter, especially since you aren't suffering some other penalty like a ranked point loss.
Stick with the games, they aren't that bad. And again, if you are super outnumbered, then it'll be over soon anyway.
- dSKyNafinchin4 years agoHero@KelRiever I forgot about the lockout. Me and my buddies have secured several short matches like this, when over-manned. We've even locked out a couple 9-man teams, Lmao

This is so stupid. Again sbmm ***** me over. Now I'm just gonna watch the news waiting on my team to lose. It's bad enough the intro screens in this game last for 2 minutes before the game begins, and now this waste of time.

@CCbathwater Bruh, while I won't play ranked with team mates because I would absolutely torture them (ask LordScorpion, who is solid peoples), I would happily join you in a team of 3 for Control. And we would conquer the universe. Maybe the great LordScorpion could join us.
I will play Wattson, you play whatever you want. And then we will break the SBMM the other way
- CCbathwater4 years agoSeasoned Ace@KelRiever Well, the games got better the later it got. Guess the kids went to bed. But yeah, okay, eventhough I'm a soloQ player, can't deal with this again. If you're NA though, I can only squeeze through on NY and Virginia without it getting laggy and ****.
