Same old issue. Defenders can’t get a proper “home field advantage” because they don’t know which location it’s going to send them to next. Even having played for a while, if I take what I feel is an educated guess, I’m only right 1/3 of the time. Defenders NEED the advanced warning so fortifications and mines can be placed AHEAD of time, not while attempting to retreat or in the middle of the battle.
This is also a reason I’ve seen a lot of people “panic build” and end up putting up counterproductive barbwire and sandbags. Not 100% of the reason, but still a fair bit. They are getting shot at or bombed while trying to set up fortifications, and not everyone can do that without a coolhead.
It would likely increase the win rate on defenses, which from my PERSONAL experiences are usually a loss. (Unless you are playing against all bots!)
