It is more a problem with time. Most of my grenades make it to the place they belong. I like the Medic class as my KD is not that great but this way I can help the team. ---

> [@Betovilu](#): > > Reinterate here in terms of balance. This game literally gives you every tool to succeed. If you’re failing its because of the squads. You get 4 choices. If one’s not working move on to the next. Communication is the biggest issue. You all have headsets but fail to talk to each other. Thats a big factor in why you lose. If you want that thing you’re going for go for it. I’ll say it’s a hell of a lot easier with this game than previous. They practically hand it to you. I watchted them patch an event because too may people complained. Squad, communicate, win. Simple as that. So true a squad of four communicating can turn the tide even if the rest of the team is garbage. You get 4 people communicating and a few joining the domination and you’ll win more often than not. ---

> [@GrimeySix](#): > > I think the whole switch sides dynamic missing is really hurting this. Not just that you can’t opt to switch sides, but I notice the lobby never moves me to another side in effort to balance the game. Nevermind for skill level, but even just for sheer numbers, one team could be 5-6 players short handed and it won’t move people from the other side. > > I’ve definitely had some close ones recently, a 4-0 win in Conquest the other day comes to mind. Overall the match making does seem to mostly just fill the lobby with bodies, with little attention to skill or evening numbers on each side. I had a conquest match yesterday that started 18-29, no suprise when they had all flags within a few minutes. Also no idea how this still happens. Kinda like Dice is ignoring the issue for now. It feels like more lopsided games after a new TOW comes out, maybe too many going for missions over base gameplay. ---

I think back to BF3, specifically: Infantry \< Tank \< Attack Chopper \< Infantry w/ Stinger \< Tank…and so it goes… ---

For me, the smoke is a blessing because one thing Aflag excels at in BF games is throwing grenades in such a way that it is going to bounce back and blow me up 8/10 times. At least smoke just blocks my vision when the throw goes awry! ---

Still the same, nothing has changed, still all one sided, I’m out, BF V is dead, this should of been dealt with months ago, the game is now one player shorter. ---
