I think the netcode made a ton of players leave, usually casuals don't notice subtle things like desync, but it was so extreme at launch alot of ppl dropped off and I think the state of ranked has alot of players who would be playing that just sticking to pubs with their whole group, ranked 4v4 on some of the maps plays really slow and campy compared to 6v6 and I think alot of those groups are just pubstomping now, I notice when solo I get parties in my lobby so I might be with a 4 stack and a solo against another 4 stack and 2 solos and it's a game of chance if I get the better 4 stack
Yeah I agree running into groups in XDefiant is the worst when playing solo, sometimes I try to run and hide and hope they don’t see me until they walk by to get a kill in those situations
It seems like the teammates are always the worst when you are trying to win the match like you have enemies that are annoying so you want to win but your teammates clearly just don't care and they're all in the back of the map
For real, everyone's too afraid to just barrel into a room and be super aggressive on an objective mode. I often run past like 2 teammates who are just waiting at a doorway to breach a room, only to die to a single camper... when if they just WENT IN WITH ME, we'd have had an advantage.
@@evilmuska especially trying to push people off the objective, all I’m asking for is a couple shots , but they stack like their about to breach. It’s both frustrating and hilarious at the same time.
I think it's just testament to the playerbase dropping off a bit as it does with all games, happened in cod too after some players moved on, I think most ppl left are just veteran players who r sick of cod so you're constantly seeing above average players OR players in coordinated teams with their friends
The worst is when you have six people all standing together behind 2 phantom shields and they have a healer and they have 2 spiderbots or some type of crazy annoying team composition and they're all coordinated
@@dartlinfps yeah the AA masks it but I’m a bot on controller now been on mnk for years now. Tried it and hit reg felt good like ya said but my movement was so bad
It can be tough when you can tell they're partied up and they're just playing a way I would consider annoying outside of a ranked mode lol it's like they lock down every sightline
ive only run as a solo,, get dumped into a match already running... ive never been in a squad... and ive gotten annihilated in what should be a decent match.. ive tried to give call outs, or say when someone was camping.. and all i get is " dont you ever shut up"? no.. i dont.. i talk.. just like in COD.. where CALL OUTS are a thing.. when saying " hey, 3 teams spawned in NW corner by airplane nose.. " or " the whole squad seems to be in the railroad side on Showtime.. etc.. nobody has a f*cking mic anymore.. or uses it.. then there are the hackers... jump shotting you AROUND a corner they cant possibly see thru ( they are not echelon, no echelon in the match ). and jump . snipe you in the head while you are running thru cover.. yea... f*ck that.. needs some real anti cheat.. i like the game.. but,, it has a lot of bugs and play issues to get thru yet..
Making it the way you want it negates the casual play. If you dont want to be a solo player, get a squad going forcing squads to always go against squads. It is just as bad as sbmm. I solo que on tdm all the time, and I rarely get my shit rocked that hard. If anything, they just need a free for all mode.
That and a Merc moshpit, it currently does match squads vs squads but if you are a solo player with high SR (a sweat, which I guess I am) I get the worse squad... I guess I'm just too old to play this game at 33 I can't be bothered to go looking for new friends to play a video game with... I think a FFA mode and Merc moshpit mode for solos only would solve this though I never have issues except when I can tell the enemy team is in a party due to playing like they are attached at the hip
I think alot of ppl confuse playing vs parties as a solo as being against competition or challenge, I would just say I hate feeling like im constantly getting jumped
Did a match on Pueblito last night, and immediately got pushed off B, to respawn into a coordinated spawn trap on A. So I and every one of the guys on my team collectively leaned forward and beat those fuckers into submission, and won 750 to 300 something. They were very very clearly on mic in discord together, but luckily for us they weren't skilled enough to outplay me and the lvl 115 and lvl 85 on my team. Still though, if their stack had been even remotely competent, we'd have been toast. See it all the damn time. Seems like every time I get into a 1v1 I'm winning, 2-3 of his teammates crawl out of a hole in the ground and lazer me down from every angle. And the guy I was shooting is at 10hp.
I think this may have to do with the way the lobbies fill and may just be TOTALLY random, I might have a great experience one day and another day just face nothing but stacks as a solo, other days I may face stacks that are less skilled resulting in like 10 multikills within 1 match
I think depending on how your team is playing you have to adjust your playstyle and sometimes the whole team is allergic to the objective so you literally just have to play the same way they are otherwise you become cannon fodder for the enemy team... Nothing worse than the feeling that you're running into a one versus six gun fight while your team is God knows where lol
Yea i stuggle with this everytime i only play solo nobody to play with and sometimes i do well others i get stomped im usually like middle of the board im 20+ hours in gameplay and ive gotten played of the game once it seems sweaty all the time or like my guns are pea shooters sometimes and theirs kill with 2 shots other times i get kills that i feel like i shouldnt have i aim and one bullet seemed to kill them but i would love to be able to have a strategy its so hard for the libertad challenges cuz nobody will stay in one spot or still enough for me to heal them
I've started trying to go into games playing a role like trying to be a healer or trying to be a shield player and I started following the random teammates around because I noticed a ton of enemy coordination, sadly my teammates never want to run ANYWHERE remotely close to the objective half the time
I noticed that helps a TON compared to libertad or echelon...that extra 20 health helps so much when you usually win 1v2s it takes it up another level because you don't usually heal fast enough with libertad anyways and echelon gets countered by good phantom players imo, been noticing how good phantom is lately I just don't like the ult compared to echelon
Lol true, I can just imagine the amount of conversations between people telling friends to download the game to play together, no diff on warzone etc (come to think about it I only play that game when a friend asks me to join them
Even with no SBMM every match feels like an EA sports event or tournament 🤣🤣 everybody’s playing sweaty

Bro my teammates always suck

Same. They’re always clueless and seem scared to fire their guns.

It has been feeling super sweaty lately and I'm not sure why. I'm starting to suspect cheaters or SBMM was introduced in the S1 patch.

Big facts, i played a game a few days ago and the whole enemy team used spiderbots
lol that makes me leave the lobby if there's more than 3
3:13 I played against a 5 man running intel suits and they was meat riding each other all game 😭😭😭
The worst is when you have six people all standing together behind 2 phantom shields and they have a healer and they have 2 spiderbots or some type of crazy annoying team composition and they're all coordinated
@@dartlinfps just a phenomenal gaming experience 💀💀
This is facts and playing mnk is absolute hell with the bad hit reg and net code
It feels like it's better on controller to be honest with you
@@dartlinfps yeah the AA masks it but I’m a bot on controller now been on mnk for years now. Tried it and hit reg felt good like ya said but my movement was so bad

Amen brother.
ive only run as a solo,, get dumped into a match already running... ive never been in a squad... and ive gotten annihilated in what should be a decent match..

nobody has a f*cking mic anymore.. or uses it..
then there are the hackers... jump shotting you AROUND a corner they cant possibly see thru ( they are not echelon, no echelon in the match ). and jump . snipe you in the head while you are running thru cover..
yea... f*ck that.. needs some real anti cheat..
i like the game.. but,, it has a lot of bugs and play issues to get thru yet..
The only call-out I ever heard was a guy yelling slurs at our team after we lost, he had 0 points on the objective too and was negative kd as well 🤣😭

Great video, agreed 💯

When you see all your teammates get destroyed on one end of the map so you change direction 😂😂

Oh trust me it’s easy to tell when you are playing against ppl in a party
Ppl say to me "what are you psychic"
Idk man, most of the time I have easier lobbies in solo tdm, half the time, I’m in sweater and more stackers when I’m in a 2 man party
I think this may have to do with the way the lobbies fill and may just be TOTALLY random, I might have a great experience one day and another day just face nothing but stacks as a solo, other days I may face stacks that are less skilled resulting in like 10 multikills within 1 match
When I was lower than level 25, I was doing okay. Coming in 3rd-1st after that I always come last religiously.

Only time somebody was using the mic they were talking to their girlfriend about if they should get a burrito or not.
lol at least it was a wholesome moment
@@dartlinfps barely lol
Yea i stuggle with this everytime i only play solo nobody to play with and sometimes i do well others i get stomped im usually like middle of the board im 20+ hours in gameplay and ive gotten played of the game once it seems sweaty all the time or like my guns are pea shooters sometimes and theirs kill with 2 shots other times i get kills that i feel like i shouldnt have i aim and one bullet seemed to kill them but i would love to be able to have a strategy its so hard for the libertad challenges cuz nobody will stay in one spot or still enough for me to heal them

yeah, it's a ubisoft game. I am sure they are lying to people about sbbm and other things too
lol i wouldn't be surprised if something is going on in the background
premades are losers. "hold my hand bro. he's killing me, save me bro." pathetic
lol it makes me rage when I am just killing 15 minutes waiting on something and trying to jump in a quick match while not wearing a headset
bloodstrike has solo br mode. that's the fps I play. everything else feels rigged against solos
Shields baby, thats how i win
I noticed that helps a TON compared to libertad or echelon...that extra 20 health helps so much when you usually win 1v2s it takes it up another level because you don't usually heal fast enough with libertad anyways and echelon gets countered by good phantom players imo, been noticing how good phantom is lately I just don't like the ult compared to echelon
How do you switch to yellow outline and health bar?
You go to the accessibility options and you switch the color blind setting to deuteronopia
It's to hard core hip markers it sucks
The game is free. What you think will happen lol
Lol true, I can just imagine the amount of conversations between people telling friends to download the game to play together, no diff on warzone etc (come to think about it I only play that game when a friend asks me to join them
whats the mp7 build? look strong af
Fast mags, no stock, quick draw grip, heavy barrel, muzzle booster
Trash game
good thing it's free I guess
@@dartlinfps yes
