Unplayable...

It was bad with smurfs and hacker bullies before this last split.
But it is now on a biblical level.

Pubs or ranked, doesn't matter.
8/10 games you get absolutely demolished in seconds, by any of the following:

Masters / Predators.
Level 11 Wraith who just turn up from nowhere.
Level 14 Octane that gets 8 bullet headshots in a row with an SMG while running fast.
One-shot by a flatline (Hack)
2-shot by a Horizon, with a wingman, while up in the air.
Etc....
Etc...

One could say that Respawn lost control completely, but I think that it is by choice.
High ranked, skilled bullies most likely spend more money on the game than the average, so why not give them more meat to grind...

    my first game of control was good but the more I played the worst it got. not to mention all the levels 11 and 25's having the movement and aim of someone who's been playing for years. I'm not too shocked about it. The game is always unplayable when the first launch of anything.  I'm just relieving some frustration by typing this

    I thought by the title you were talking about the massive latency I am experiencing today.   So far, I keep getting disconnections and crashes.  I only played 1 AR fully with far too much lag.  I just tried again at 1 AM EST/ 10 PM PT and I still get nowhere.  I am not upset. I am disappointed about wrecking other people's enjoyment, each time I try, with my constant lag and disconnects.  

    Massive turn out of players means the cheaters return in force too.  I would just wait it out, unless you have a limited window to play.  I imagine it will take a few days for the population storm to calm down.  The latency has also effected console players, as one of my friend took me into Control event and they ended up getting disconnected and I got the game over as I kept lagging in the match.
