I found it to be somewhat variable, like sometimes its BAM IN YOUR FACE YOUR DEAD. Hard in your face death, from a smg from 30m away, tightly group bam bam bam in the chest.
Man, you don't get a chance to even engage in the fight. I guess, fast play is ok for some games, but honestly, i'm here for the feeling of being in a war, not lazer tag. If the TTK/TTD is to short, then its a totally different game, and not something i'm interested in.
I'd say that for the most part, i think its mainly my lag (over dodgy wifi) that contributed to that sudden death feeling, where i'm dead before they've even come around the corner. So fair enough. But i'd like it if they geared it towards creating that feeling of being in a war zone, rather than a EA Sports commpetition match.
