The stomps in this game are getting more ridiculous by the day

Im guilty of leaving in this game also I must admit, most of the time when I join games that are already half way and the tickets difference is huge, no thanks I try another server.

If the match is almost over I sometimes wait for the next map but if the balance stays the same than nope Im out again.

I play to have fun not to get frustrated, sadly it happens to often in this game at the moment.

The assignment system is such a joke and absolutely ruins the balance of the games. When you have assignments that require you to get 20 kills in a round from 60+ meters away while prone and hiding in a bush as Recon, yeah those players going after that assignment are not going to be much help.

Assignments wouldnt be a bad idea if they rewarded only company coin, but the fact that they reward cosmetic items, and the majority of these assignments are anti PTFO/team/squad play only creates more of the imbalance in a game. Weapon skins should be unlocked by just using the weapon. 100 kills - Predator skins, 500 - Chrome, 750 - Mint, 1000 - Gold (or something of the sort).

Last night i joined my friends game but i was on the opposite team. When the next round loaded up he sent me an invite to his game (I was already in it) and it swapped me over and put me in his squad. I’m gonna try it when teams are unbalanced tonight and join a randomer from the othet team to even it up.

The main difference is that this time the only escape from the Suck Side (reference to the SW Dark side btw) is to quit.
Otherwise one can either chose to try to win (like I often do) and get frustrated or to K/D farm like a lot of people do :frowning:

What platform are you on? Thought I’d ask since what you mention about joining a randomer is how you change teams on Xbox at the mo.

Incorrect. While player rank is no guarantee of superior ability, it certainly means more experience. More experience in game means the player would know the maps better, the function and abilities of the vehicles, the aiming characteristics and drop off of bullets and projectiles. They would know the locations of good hiding spots, sniping areas, and resupply stations better. More experience is one of the single biggest deciding factors in winning games in Battlefield. That’s why 9 times out of 10 a team with a bunch of level 50s will defeat a team filled with lower rank players.

As you said, when almost everyone is level 50 rank becomes meaningless. I see very few games where the majority of players are not at max rank, and games where it’s a bunch of level 50s vs. level 10s is not something I’m seeing at this point. There seems to be a trickle of new players just buying the game, or maybe buying it again based on the scores some of them get, but for the most part if you’ve played a month and are not rank 50 you must only play a couple of games per day.

I had that most of last night, I couldn’t find a game where I wasn’t put on the team that was down hundreds of tickets. Finally late at night I got in with a good squad and had a couple of good games. Even if you lose but the score is close and your squad played well you can still have fun, and we even managed to win one game.

Scrambling squads between teams every round would go a long way to fixing this, at least then the stomping would only last one round. But as it is a team can be crushed several rounds in a row and that just isn’t good for BFV as it will discourage many players from even loading the game if they experience the same thing every day.

What’s wrong with “kill 4 enemies that are hiding behind vehicles by shooting their feet while you are crouch-walking?”
^This is what I LIVE FOR!

How do you learn this super sweet sniper dance they do?
(from :06 to :13)

Yeah. Except when i go and make an alt account and troll from a low level just to prove you wrong :wink:

I like the rounds where my team would lose but my squad gets the best squad spot light.

Stomped again. And again. And again. DICE are you paying attention? MAKE TEAMS BALANCED ALREADY. And please do something to encourage teamwork and PTFO, not world of warcraft style solo assignments.

There is absolutely no kind of balancing of any kind right now.

I’ve been looking at the scoreboard pretty intently during some stomps and I’ve noticed 2 things often. One is that normally the team doing the stomping has around 1/4-1/3 more level 50s, which I know is no indicator of skill, but more time played means more knowledge and of course practice. The second thing I’ve noticed is that “clans”, or at least groups of players with the same tag, are 90% on the winning team, and not just that, but there are more separate clans on the winning team AKA clan stacked. Just saw it again in my last match, which was a stomp, other team was 25/32 level 50s, with 1 clan of 9 players, and 3 other clans of 2-3 players. My team had 18/32 50s and 1 clan of 2 players.

I don’t have any issue with clans playing in public lobbies, I mean what else should they do? I just don’t let them stomp me more than once.. if I get stomped and see there are 3 or 4 in the same clan in the top 10 of the leader board, I’m Audi 5000

BF4 was the last game to have balancing right?
still not sure how dice forgot how to code that…

you wait that long?
if i see a full squad from a clan on one side but not mine? i’m out.
regardless of score.

It’s completely random. Some days stomped. Other days stomping. Some days toss up.

Remove the k/d ratio element and people will play differently and with a different mindset.
If KpM would be the main stat I am sure there will be less campers, less people leaving loosing teams and so on…

The there is the thing I most hate when people do, it should not had been possible to move like that and being able to shoot with any accuracy
