Can we please all agree that the last couple seasons, there has been an influx of really bad maps introduced. Poor sight lines, predictable spawns, bad lighting. Can we just go back to Rig, Truth, Colosseum, Tyrant, Regret, Riptide, Plaza, Overgrowth, Fathom, Empire, Eden, . Get rid of White cell, Refuge, Stasis, Pegasus 2, mercy, Echelon, Fissure, Torque (specifically because of the horrible lighting). I could go either way about molten. Please someone tell these people what we like! Some of the remakes are ok in social such as, refuge or mercy but they do not play like they did in the old games and not at all enjoyable to play. Refuge is to large and to many open spaces to be sniped. It has to be played slow and methodically, great for arena but horrible in slayer matches when you just want to let loose and just play without thought. Not everyone is onyx or champ. Matter of fact the onyx and champs do not make up the majority. What they want should have it’s own competitive playlist (arena) but most slayer players do not think and do not want to. I feel there is to much emphasis on the higher ranking players. Sometimes, I want to play ranked but not social but still keep the fun in the game. I’m normally a high diamond or low onyx but the mental strain of playing with players that can’t keep up against players that want to always play at an extremely high level makes me want to break my Xbox. Let me play some maps I don’t have to rely on how much my teammates know about what the other team is going to do. I nearly always solo queue against teams of 3 or 4, I can’t win with the other solos in my lobby. It’s just not being fun like it used to be. Just let my teammates slay without knowing position, perfect example is truth. That is a map I can play with anyone, all the time. It doesn’t get frustrating at all. But refuge needs to be played with a team of 4 that communicate constantly, it’s just not fun.
I agree on most of this, but i really like Refuge and Pegasus II… Half the time i solo queue myself and always find the bottom 2 of my team going 5 - 15 usually… was actually on a huge losing streak because of this. Went from Onyx1650ish on Swat down to diamond 5 in a few hours, the 2 games i did win didn’t rank me back up much at all… team balancing on this game usually sucks( i search on balanced ). I’d love to have a HCS Slayer playlist, I love the settings in Team Arena but i dont wanna play objective. Something i noticed is winning as a solo queue player gives less rank XP than it does in 3 or 4 player fireteams. ( maybe this is just me? Idk… ) the exp i got from 2 back to back solo queue wins (finishing 1st and 2nd, both good positive KDA’s) equals winning 1 match with a full team, placing maybe 3rd and breaking even on kills and deaths… makes absolutely no sense!
Dude not refuge
