Breakthrough (again) balancing

I’m genuinely confused about what’s been happening with Breakthrough over the past week.

I logged in today, played for about ten minutes, and somehow completed three full Breakthrough matches in that time — and I played both attacker and defender across those games. No exaggeration. Then I joined a fourth match on Liberation Peak as a defender; the first sector had already fallen, and within five minutes the entire match was over. Every sector taken, game finished.

Has something changed with the balancing recently? These matches feel absurdly fast, and I can’t imagine this is just because of the event.

    I do agree that the balancing is off, and not just slightly.  I've had a few games recently where my mates I play with have said, "have we got both objectives already?!?"  In fact there was a game last week on Eastwood where I respawned at base just before the advance moved to the next set of objectives, and I had literally crossed the line into the objectives area, as our team captured both points, and I had to keep running 😆 to catch up.  It's like we are playing against nobody.  


    I don't know if it's related or not, but I've also noticed when playing breakthrough that servers are very, very slow of populating.  It seems to take a good few minutes to gather enough people to start the server, which in turn suggests there aren't as many people playing.  The later into the evening you go, the harder it is to fill a server.  In fact I regularly move into Portal because quick play servers aren't filling up, and even in Portal, there are maybe two or three servers with 50-64 players in them, and that's it. 

    If I didn't know better, I'd say the game is broken, people are fed up with it, and have given up even trying
