I know that some and even most of this will go unchanged but this is what I would like to see adjusted. I am currently loving the game, over 400 matches in already so this may be biased in a positive way for 343 instead of negative for once, which is what this game and dev needs. The game is solid we need to give them proper feedback that leads to improvements not get all pissy that it’s not happening the second we want it or even how we want it.
General Gameplay:
- Mele system has improved but needs more work still.
- Remove the double status effect and have ONLY cracked shields. Its confusing so many people say one shot and it’s 2 shots, it’s just inherently confusing considering its been 20 years of the one shield status.
- Mangler should be 2 shot then mele.
- BTB fireteam split up bug - annoying lol
- BTB parties should be whoever you join with, not just 4 people. i.e 6 people come in they should all just see each other as their selected UI color.
Graphical:
- Graphic bugs have been increasing over the last few days, concerns over adaptive sync not working or a memory leak causes my game’s performance to go from 100+ fps to 24fps as the length of time I have the game open goes on.
- Weird visual glitches where characters or other random textures will just be a bunch of flat textures stacked on a 3d plane
Ranked:
- Reconnect option for when you crash or drop a match.
- Report feature
- Larger and more frequent mm, short-term, bans- lots of players drop and ruin your lobbies, even in diamond level.
- Remove ar from the maps
- Needs to be less Kill-death based - it def rewarded to slay and not obj from the challenges to how ranking is determined.
- Maybe add a score for how far a flag is carried, if it is scored; so Everyone involved in a flag capture is rewarded properly.
- Flag stops should earn more points too
Gametypes:
- Strongholds: This game mode is often lopsided, or simply everyone rotates, and its a constant cap and rotate while no one scores points
- 2 rounds - shorter time could help, this change made oddball one of my favorites
new game types.
- Total Control: Stalemate issues
- The points need to randomize after amount of time being stalemated. 10+ minutes in a deadlock is simply just unfun.
- Power seeds: Extremely one-sided sometimes
- Maybe fewer power seeds on restock, many times a team will score and have half the next score already at the base just waiting.
- Lockdown scoring team’s ability to place power seeds for a short window, maybe even just 30 seconds to allow for a counter on the extra seeds/set up on the new seeds.
- *not a change but the idea for a game type, same thing as power seeds but the seeds collect in a wave status so say every 3 minutes the seeds collect and in this game mode it is whoever scores the most seeds,
Store: not trying to beat a dead horse but it has to be mentioned
- All helmets, coatings, waists items, and every “special” chest piece should be universal.
- Legendary Armour bundles should include ALL customization options for that skin
- 20 dollars is 1/3rd the cost of any other game, I shouldn’t have to purchase the katanas separately or anything else for that matter. That 20 dollar bundle is to get something cool and support the game, atm it’s robbery.
- Armor coating bundles should be 3-5 dollars always bundle - adding 5 emblems for different vehicles ect with it IS NOT the answer to adding value.
- Increase value of bundles - Costs are fine but what you obtain in MANY bundles is not, again the ability to put the emblem on 3 different vehicles isn’t really adding value, it should have just been that way to start u have an emblem it should work on ALL things emblems can be applied too, this is a common theme, that’s the pay gates people are pissed about.
Progression: again not trying to beat a dead horse so ill keep it simple and to the point
- Needs to have some sort of performance-based reward.
- Daily challenges - they will not fix the progression issue, but they will help someone like me, who completes weeklies in under 2 days.
- A general spartan rank is needed - I believe it’s been talked about and maybe even confirmed that they want to add one, but if not here’s the suggestion again.
- Weekly challenges promote not playing the game properly.
Overall I’m happy, glad they took another year. Maybe a few more months could have got us more features, but im content. I like where it is and where it easily can go. I’m not here to fight about it, so ALL hyper-critical posts will be 100% ignored.
