I can’t stand FFA. I can’t even play more than 1 match at a time because it’s so stressful. Even with the lower player count I just can’t stand it. I usually place 2nd but it still has me infuriated at some ridiculous fights. Power weapons being in FFA doesn’t make sense to me. Getting teamed up on by more than one person is extremely frustrating.
The sprint/shields mechanic does not lend itself well to FFA, in my opinion. This game is most enjoyable with teams of two.
