Strong is relative though. You can sit in a Competition match forever waiting to get the required number of players. Also, you can join a room with bots and easily get teams that are anything but balanced. Streamlining the playlists would only help the community. It is bad enough that there is a Stopwatch mode that almost noone plays becaue it simply takes too long to finish a single game. Great idea, but very poorly executed.
In the end Brink simply has too many choices for playlists. There should be one with bots, one without and one competitive room for smaller teams. That should be it. To be honest, the competitve mdoe should force you to play Stopwatch mode and it should not require 20+ minutes to finish a round.
I’m with Matters on this, the current system does not benefit the 360 community at all.
