@Skill4Reel That about sums up too many Battlefield players these days.

@Trokey66 The narrow map-nature of breakthrough maps combined with so many players doesnt help either. It always turns into a boring meatgrinder. DICE needs to be more harsh on max playercount, too many hurts gameplay.

I've always found asymmetric game modes to be miserable experiences in Battlefield.
BC1/BC2 Rush being the exception.
I'd like to see DICE set a 50/50 win rate target for each side. At the end of each week DICE would review the win% on each map and adjust player counts.
Defense win% on Breakaway at 30% at the end of week one? Make the teams 31/33.
Defense win% at 43% at the end of week two? Make the teams 30/34.
Asymmetric player counts for an asymmetric mode.
Allow me to believe I got a fair shot at winning regardless of which side I get assigned.
- 3 years ago@Wargame_Enj0yer These maps aren't narrow at all though. There is all kinds of space outside of a direct path to the objective areas which I often see as a distraction to many players on the servers.
The maps are not narrow enough for this type of game mode in my opinion. Not that this would stop people from shying away from the objective areas as we saw in Battlefield 1 with Frontlines, Supply Drop, and Operations.
Frontines should have been one of the most exciting game modes in the series, but it was often dragged down by players that just sat around the map and refused to engage at the "frontlines."
Sometimes we put too much pressure on the devs to make unnecessary changes when 50 to maybe even 60 percent of the enjoyment in multiplayer games like these comes from the players themselves and how they go about playing the game modes.
Put two teams against one another in Breakthrough that are trying to win and these problems don't exist. I know because I have played so much Breakthrough that I have experienced this several times.
So what needs to be done to make sure that this is the Battlefield experience on a regular basis?
