Quick & Constructive Feedback on S3 so far: It's Average. 4/10

After a couple of days into the new map and season since posting this, unfortunately it's falling flatter with each match. 

My Golmud loss count exceeds 40, whereas the wins are as low as 14. 

The team balancing is causing widespread short matches across the game, and the netcode and hitreg feels worse since the update. 

It's very hard to stay enthused when outside of casual modes, you're unable to find a match that hasn't already started or nearing it's end, or ends extremely quickly and gets padded out with bots. 

It feels like a big map to distract from the masses of technical issues still present. The vehicles also feel worse overall, with jets still neglected.

get rid of the random recoil. i’m cool with increasing recoil but make it a patterned that is learnable. The game sucks now. You can be perfect at controlling recoil and burst firing but at a flip of a coin will miss shots now. Such a lazy way to fix issues with gunplay

I appreciate that, but in all honesty, I still don't feel like with the issues above that's it's currently in a "value for money" state. The map is good fun, but the glaring team balancing and matchmaking issues are still present. Plus, Netcode and TTK honestly don't feel fixed. 

I like the battlepass skins, and love dagger being back, but overall it's still swaying more towards the frustrating side.

Then why are the majority of matches I've experienced ending fast? Golmud lasts longer on average (for now), yet there's repeatedly a huge mismatch between mean average of both teams, sometimes as large as 250+. 

Currently as it stands, I'm up to 33 Golmud losses. That's insane compared to the wins, which is as low as 4. 

One match yesterday had two squads of players all 200+, some pushing 500. Our team was primarily new players, which lead to a much quicker defeat.

Its impossible to balance BF.  Depending on which region and time you are playing, there wont be anyone to balance with.  Especially if you are hand selecting only certain maps.  Queue times are always longer at the beginning of the season.  Unless you are playing the new map, normal conquest queues take longer.  Or  you get thrown into a game that already started.

Communication is a factor or balancing.  Most people dont use their mics because on discord etc.  But then you have the crossplay factor too.   I consider myself an advanced player. 

I have over 630 hours in the game.  If the boys get on, one squad can make the difference between a blow out and a good game.  I might be able to dominate some games.  But other times, there is zero team play from my side.  No medics, no communication, just die respawn repeat. 

Or there are times where our team cant hold a single objective.  Every objective we leave, we lose.  The best matches are where there are atleast 2 squads of competent players.  Keeps the game close.  But lets be honest, 25% of the server isnt doing anything for the objective at any given point.  The next 25% doesnt understand or doesnt care about team play or how the dynamics of respawning cost tickets, etc.  Its almost always the players doing the least that complain the most during games.  

The reality is, the skill ceiling for casuals is way lower compared to 4-10 players at the top of the scoreboard at any given time.

There is good feedback here. Thank you for remaining constructive. EA_Barry.

Reinstalled the game to see what changes and actually weapons spread ....... , lag with rpg still here, rpg  still miss targets  at 20m the rocket just unpop from existance before hit tank. Hitreg also same maybe worst just release 30 bullets in the back of a dude and nothing a sniper pwned me after that. Most of weapons have strange behavior like peashooter just does nothing. Still see high ping ppl.

Most of parties are with bots in conquest and breakthrough. And for finish at the end of last party i got a crash^^ 

P.S Little bird fly well anyway i dunno if its in update or not.

Well i don't know how to rate it  atm.

I'm now up to 32 losses on the Golmud Conquest/Escalation mix. 

To be honest, I'm tempted to throw it down to a 4/10, due to the increased amount of glitches. I was under the impression that matchmaking was going to be a priority, but other than a big map, it seems to be very broken everywhere else. 

Ill give it a 8 out of 10 so far. 

Update: I'm now at a whopping 18 Golmud losses from my day off today. Again, matches are going extremely fast. I don't believe matchmaking has had any improvements yet.
