I agree with all of your points except maybe the power weapons being shown on the map. I timed them in past games, but i expect you still can, and if you do show up at the spawn on the timer, it takes 5-10 secs before they highlight on the map... so no biggie there.
also mfw i grab the rocket launcher off the spawn and get headsniped instantly from someones rediculous assist spree driven ordinance drop...
Everyone starting with DMR/BR long range weapons makes map strategy and counterweapons basically useless. Especially wtih the reduced bloom, theres no real skill involved.
map control gone
weapon/counter weapon strategies gone
power weapons for everyone all the time...
they really need to make adjustments to this game quick.
Forgot to add (somewhat related) about the matchmaking process
-The matchmaking process takes forever (on east coast USA)
-why are everyones names listed sideways...?
-takes forever to look at any one persons stats, forget about the whole lobby
-when you stay in a lobby after the game ends, 90% of the time the next game starts with 3 people on one team, and 1 person on the other
-can't change your map vote, and can't friggin leave the game if you vote? wtf.
