Remove Flare Entirely

[broken granite]

Flares are fine but should be really only utilised on night maps as a source of light. The issue is that night maps are not really that dark.
Satchels are a big issue as it destroys everything.. it's very difficult to balance the game(vehicles, structures, ..) when such OP weapon exists

The Average public game lasts less than 15 minutes. Whats the point in a item you cab maybe use twice if your lucky? Given recon should be a on the back lines there is no point having 2 flares per game in areas with nothing to flare

[celest verge]

On console maybe, dont drag PC into this mess

[torpid vessel]

wtf does pc vs console have to to do with this?

[rapid basalt]

That’s not true outside of ‘official’ servers. Lots of full 90min console games.

[celest verge]

The average pub game on PC is not 15 minutes

[broken granite]

15 minutes? when our server ends after 30 minutes that's a short game..

[torpid vessel]

False. Official severs are 15 minute steamrolls. enlist/clan severs are generally 10 minutes of less due to the clan stacking 50 members on one team to pub stomp. maybe Playstation is different but thats the xbox experience

[rapid basalt]

Oh right ok I guess my own experience is wrong because you have shared your opinion.

[celest verge]

Brother dont play official servers

Literally everyone will tell you that

[rapid basalt]

I was going to share a list of servers where the games are reliably good but it’s getting off topic and I’m not sure I want to play alongside this guy anyway.

[torpid vessel]

wow... Clearly not Every single game but 90% of them

[torpid vessel]

Those servers all have ridiculous requirements to play. as stated before im a casual. Im only level 280. im not sure why my experience of severs has made you so upset.

[storm summit]

Or the Comp scene

[torpid vessel]

well aware. but playing against 50 clan members pub stacking against gamepass players doenst make for a great experience either. only other choice is tryign to join comp and you need like multiple level 500 accounts to be considered. theres no winning.

[foggy pawn]

I never seen that, you must be exaggerating

[torpid vessel]

really? join bad company, any of the xbhll servers, basically any popular enlist. All full pub stack teams or clan members on each team calling out garrisons.

[foggy pawn]

average gameplay is 50min

[torpid vessel]

cool. anytime ive played on that server its pubstacking or teaming.

point is we dont need flares when you can maybe use 2 a game. ntm recon team shouldn't be in area where it makes sense to shoot flares. no need to flare single infantry in the back lines

[ebon flare]

No one plays official servers there trash like no one at all . And yea console servers can have steam rolls but the clans who pay for servers definitely do not stack on side to stomp a lobby Thats just stupid it kills the lobby generally when there has been 2-3 steam rolls in a row ppl will go out of there way changing sides to balance the teams . U also have to play those servers in what ever there peak times are . Aussie servers in normal Aussie night hours . Pathfinders lgn servers in American peak times taco server in euro peak times other wise yes u will be playing with some garbage for team mates

[rapid basalt]

You need multiple level 500 accounts to be considered for comp?

I’ve been a comp player since it started on console and Ive just got the one lvl 350 account….

Anyway nothing like your totally objective and balanced opinion.

Also, are you only playing Xbox servers with Crossplay off? Therefore limiting your server choices even further?

[stuck fulcrum]

The guy is clearly rage baiting

Save your breathe 😂

[torpid vessel]

Crossplay on. not rage baiting. Last time I tried to join a clan they required verification of at least one level 500 account. ive played almsot 1400 hours and im only level 290

[foggy pawn]

Which clan?
