Hello, I wanted to provide feedback about the weapon and vehicle spawns in this game. I am constantly frustrated that the weapon placement changes each game - what’s the point in map control/learning how to play if I have to search for 5 minutes at the start of each game to find out where all the weapons are? When I run to a rack to find a commando there instead of a BR, now I have to go searching for a BR. Next game I go to find a commando, instead there’s a needler there, what the heck.
Vehicles have been mentioned before in these forums and on reddit, however I want to add my voice to the mix. There is not any fun to be had with the current system. Not only is it unbalanced (One team gets BOTH drops more often than not because of where the vehicles are dropped on the map) but, as with the weapons, there is no rhyme or reason to the vehicle drops. In the entire time I’ve been playing I’ve seen a wraith twice, and never seen a single scorpion. I look up to the sky, see a pelican coming in and rush to get there… only to find out that it’s a gosh darn gungoose and nothing exciting. What the heck?
I think today my frustrations were pushed over the tipping point when I got two out of my three challenges to get kills with the sentinel beam. Where is the sentinel beam? Hell if I know! It changes each game! Spent the first 5 or so minutes searching each rack to find that it didn’t spawn this game because disruptors and needlers spawned in it’s place. How the hell am I supposed to know that?! What a waste of time. Fast forwards to later in the match pushing for their flag and lo and behold an enemy has a sentinel beam. Their base spawned with the only one on the map for some reason.
Other challenges I’ve got were to destoy 5 enemy ghosts. How the living hell am I supposed to kill 5 enemy ghosts? They don’t spawn on the map. They’re dropped off. Guess what else is dropped off? Everything else, I’m lucky to see one ghost in 5 games. OK, so we have a ghost - let’s destroy… how? Where are the rockets? Where’s the skewer? A sniper spawned there… where else would it spa- oh it’s a gravity hammer now.
The entire time I’ve played this game it’s been nothing but confusion in terms of where everything is. For a game claiming to make things accessible for new players (I’m not one, but my fiance gets confused that weapons are on the map in the first place let alone CHANGING) they sure make things damn hard to be accessible.
Love to hear everyone elses thoughts.
