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.
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.
