Still fast paced and lack of team play
I feel like even though the devs reduced movement speeds and scoping speeds etc, the time to death is still very short. I usually manage well and am able to get decent K/D, points captured, vehicles destroyed etc but I alway get killed by someone or smth that I'm not looking at.
It's either snipers hiding in bushes, slide shooting SMG CoD engineers, a random airplane or tank just dropping out of nowhere. And when you're in a vehicle it's the same.. the constant spamming is what gets you every time. And the main reason behind that? Map design..
We just got a brand new one where you can't leave the spawn with you helo without being painted and locked and there's a nuclear sun that makes it impossible to distinguish an enemy from a dark bush. Mirak Valley, although the largest one is also the one that strangles movement and offers absolutely no other avenues that the death traps set by defenders. Sobek city is tiny, yet you can't see where your enemy is until they've killed you.. and guess what, they're on the rooftops that you CANNOT destroy. No counter whatsoever.
Team play is also getting worse because it seems like there is so much incentive for snipers, rather than being a medic or an assault getting the job done.. A kill in BF shouldn't give you half the points that capturing or supporting teamates does.
