Level != Skill

Funny too see people always start complaining if there’s high level on the server, once they hit the same level and have sacrificed same amount of time I bet none of them complains about their own level.

Few years back people tend to complain about lag when they sucked, now they complain about high levels.

Just get over with it, if the levels bother you, don’t look at them. Focus more on your own performance than someones levels.

I’m so tired of shuffle votes right as the match starts, like, you haven’t even looked at them! How do you know the teams are unbalanced? They don’t, they just see level 20+ as some unstoppable force while really it’s totally possible to beat most of us.

The problem is that, if the team waits too long with a vote to shuffle then the other team will immediately vote no because they don’t want to be mixed anymore since the chances are high you’re getting placed in the team that has already lost a lot of time on one of the objectives or on the team that has already fallen back from won of the earlier objectives. (depends if you’re playing defense or offense).

Happened to me yesterday we were basically getting spawnkilled (4v6). => Vote to shuffle failed so right before the timer ran out we managed to get the EV going on Bridge. A guy from the other team sees our struggle and joins our team. But another player joined the game so it became 5v7. Even though we were with less people we managed to do the second objective just in time which gave us about 3 and a half minutes to finish the final objective. We got one sample and then the game ended. If we had 1 or 2 more minutes we would have won the game because the enemy team had a hard time defending that last objective.

So yeah that’s kind of the problem (especially if you are playing in offense). You can’t make up the lost time on the first objective a lot of the time. This is especially the case with the maps which include EVs.
