Wasting 10+min of my time. Also makes me not willing to play the game at all. The game already wasted my time on matchmaking. So, no more time on gameplay itself.
To those who say just keep play a match and do it separately:
Do you know how long a typical Normandy invasion match is?
Do you know how insane high bonus tickets for capture each sector in Normandy is?
Also with “balloons” for additional tickets, a match can get insanely long.
40~60min of a match is already longer than me to finish a meal. The match wont even ended after I have my dinner done.
If attacker is a little bit eager to play. As long as they captured 2~3 points, then the match would be very long. If they managed to last point, and defender is also eager to play, then the match would make to 40~60min. 40min for a match is extreme long for an arcade game.
Yeah, been there many times. Invasion can become really long. I noticed that when attackers capture objectives fast they cannot exceed 1000 tickets and if they then stall at one objective it is shorter game but when they struggle to capture them but eventually manage it when under 200 tickets then it can really take long 40+ mins.
I hate it when this happens as a defender because those games are really long and tiresome. I sometimes have feeling that attackers deliberately extend the match to farm kills (maybe for booster), because I noticed a pattern that they stall capturing the objective and really storm it with full force when they are between 200-100 tickets left.
And also when you don’t have much time and just wanted to do your daily tasks quickly and end up with 3 games in 2 hours and not many tasks completed because tasks were not suited for games you just had. I even started creating custom games, especially when there is “capture 1 point” and “kill x with specific weapon” but password protection would be great because last night bunch of people joined my game and efficiently ruined my task progression.
i’m sure you know getting defender as axis Normandy is as common as getting defender as allies Moscow, defender as axis Tunisia, or defender as axis Berlin…it’s only obvious, we all know this much that both side have frequent position (attack/defend)
Also first point was lost due to tank wreckage exploit (they parked it there and disembarked) - they should be destroyable with “J” just like any other obstacles. Blocking our entrance this way is really lame and it is sad that this shady tactic is used more and more recently and there is no way to counter it.
