Breakthrough is heavily unbalanced to the attackers benefit

I like breakthrough as a faster paced, more focused mode. I do not like how often it feels completely one sided for the attackers. They get at least double the vehicle spawns and helicopters as at...

@Skill4Reel there's a core problem that most of the capture areas have very little cover for defenders, and defender spawns are often too far away so reinforcing a point is unlikely since players who spawn in won't simply run across open area to reach the objective and die on the way, so they sit outside the objective and go for kills.

The excessive heli spam doesn't help either.

Kaleidoscope's center objective in the data center is probably one of the best for back and forth. The last points on kaleidoscope are the worst.

@SpudBug That’s a great observation about spawns for defenders, it’s been a major flaw for defenders. Helo does a run, kills a few, the flags gone by the time they can run back… if they choose to even run back. Too many maps are lost on the first point when a portion of the team decides that sniping is better. The maps do pretty clearly favourite the attackers, however the right defense can be effective but it takes all the players to do it. Taking the last point off the roof in Kaleidoscope was important, but dropping it in the middle of a kill zone was lazy development. Attackers can kill from above and again by the time you can spawn and run back, it’s over.
