Choosing only 'attack' on breakthrough

People only choosing 'attack' in breakthrough is happening frequently. Its a trend for players who've been playing the game longer. They're not even trying to defend anymore. Even though the game is totally balanced out. 

What happens is that veteran players are more present in the 'attacking side. Making breakthrough still imbalanced. 

In my opinion it would help if players would'nt see the faction they are playing in main menu. If they would start a round and play defence, they have to return to menu. An extra hurdle to play only 'attack'.

  • @Corrilius I find this as well more so oceanic servers. Once it’s gone to switch sides the attackers bail out of the game which causes you to go back to the main menu.

    Then you join a lobby with no people waiting for the next game.

    It is rare that I would play a good two games (different maps) in a row.
  • @Corrilius even if it would mean they have to leave the game and search for another one again and hope to get in the attacking team then, they would still do it if they don't like defending. 

    Would just make it more annoying to those people who do this, but won't stop them from doing it.

    Just causes new complains coming in from those saying "it doesn't show faction flag anymore" before game start.

    Nah, they'd defend.

    Think of all of the servers they'd be put on defense again after they'd left the initial server..

    A lot of waiting....

    Be better if they quit, wouldn't be missed.

    They're actually not veterans at all.

    It's like they're playing Chuckie Egg and they do the same thing every game.

    Defending is a lot harder, which is why they leave.

    As I said before, PATHETIC.

  • For me personally defending feels easier... and boring.

    I actually kinda hate the fact that i just have to wait there for the enemy to come to me. I rather push too as it's more fun.

    But eaither way i like BT the most.

    Yeah I feel ya.

    I used to hate defending too, for exactly the same reason.

    These days I find it a lot more rewarding, and challenging.

    You're restricted to where you can go, obviously.

    But IMO it requires way more thought of the enemy team, current circumstances, and adaptability than anything attacking ever provides.

    Attacking you can literally do whatever you want, throughout the whole match.

    Also you can play defense with an attacking mentality, I do.

    I get that people have their preferences, but to only play attack and quit servers on defense is totally MEH for me.

    Just play the game.. You may even wind up enjoying defending.

    Who knows..
