Serious Question

I've been playing mix tape on and off. Every single game. Totally mismatched. I quit the last one in deathmatch. 11 kills to 33. Totally one sided. Again. The penalty doesn't matter because...

@RockDokRock "Aside, in future I'll just put down controller and do something else for awhile when it's a 2 or 3 to 1 totally mismatched game. Hopefully others do the same so you get the message. I'm just frustrated that our side is totally smashed over and over in mixtape."

Oh, I do. Been doing that ever since they introduced the penalty. And after they introduced PC players into console Mixtape, I feel like I just sit afc more than I'm actually playing as most of the time I refuse to play with them. Sometimes I give it a go, then I realise I got the two i386'ers on my team, other times I get killed by some cheating Octane, and then I'm done again.

And for #2, hard agree. Been complaining about these takeovers by modes that I have no interest in playing and that I find boring, ever since they did it the first time years ago.

@CCbathwater Yeah that's a separate issue I didn't bring up (PC players in console lobbies). That's a real problem too and makes it unbalanced. Again, solution is to quit and eat penalty (I don't care, I'll just play something else) or put controller down and wander away as there is literally no point in getting smashed for the next 5-10 minutes. I don't get the penalty. It's like we are supposed to be totally fine with being continuous fodder/free kills. No thanks.

I don't mind them introducing different modes as I think it's healthy. I just don't care for this one as getting squad wiped in 6 seconds with some stupid weapon is ridiculous. Others want to play it, great. Why ruin trios and force us? Just make it a LTM people can select and leave them to it; go for it.

I am genuinely surprised at introducing a totally unbalanced weapon that spoils the game and putting it in the game such that it basically forces you to put up with it. That's a whole lot of "nope" and ain't going to happen.
