Team Throwdown - Feedback and Opinions

[Is not JL]

So Team Throwdown was recently released and it definitely plans on staying. That game is competitive - I love it!

 

You don't spawn with an AA; it's an Ordnance drop. There are preset power weapon spawns on the map, so its all about timing and getting to the weapons again. Also, the gametypes feature pre-set loadouts; no more custom loadouts. I'm pretty sure you get a BR, and Resupply and the thing which makes grenades do less damage with more range. There's a mix of Objective and slayer.

 

I'm telling you, it's pretty....-ok- competitive. Probably 70% of the players are actually trying to win, 30% of those 70% have the skill to carry their team, and the remaining 30% are randoms trying out the gametype. I mean, when I get into a game, I rarely expect teammates to go negative unless the enemy is truly great during the game.

 

First game: 49-49, I got the game winning kill just half a second before the enemy killed my teammate.

 

Its great. If you have a team with Mics, even better. Sad that I don't.

 

 

What're your opinions?

I haven't played this game type yet but plan to do so, and by ordinance drop is it like SAW over shields, and stuff or what?

Ordnance gives the choice of:

 

Thruster

Hologram

Hardlight Shield

 

Nothing else as far as I know.

The main issue for me, is not about the gameplay but about how rare people use mics on the playlist....

The best way to play it is with good, talking teammates.

with no incentive to win people don't put in mics much now.

I know. That's sad, really.

 

Hopefully when CSR comes there's a bit of a boost.
