Anyone else having more fun since the last patch?

Hello fellow redditors!

As a PC player I just got the last 2 patches you already did.(To be frank one a few hours before us)

But now i can use streaks without support (got 2 warbrids 2 AI/Rocket drones and multiple UAV's in each of my last games) in Dominion now. I can use the BAL without feeling cheap, I'm at the top of the leaderboard in the last 2 games with 2k+ points difference to the second place. I know many bitched about it but if i got 12 caps and 30 kills shouldn't i have 2k more points then the slayer with 2 caps and 0 defenses and many kills?

I've more fun then i had shortly after Day 0. Even got the Obsidian Steed (My first elite gun besides the Mahem Bull and the Squeeker and 3 MORS-The Doctor which i redeemed) I feel the SBMM a little bit, but it's fun. I love matches which end 178:179 it's close it's hard fought and statisfing if you win them.

Just my few cents had to get them off

Opposite for me, it's actually got worse. SBMM looks to still be intact, and I'm going barely positive each game. (Usually a 1.5kd player)

it's worse than before. now everyone is running around using the laser. the BAL last patch wasnt as popular as the laser is now. getting bigger streaks is annoying too because with system hack+points costing 750 it's dumb to use because for that price you can get a lot of streaks that actually do something

one step forward and 2 step back. it's like they didnt test shit before they implemented it

Maybe it's my skill level but i saw in total 2 lasers (2 times the same player). I see more ASM1's (70% of the lobby using them) also i use UAV with time + points (just prestiged) Missle Strike with Cluster rocket + additonal and Warbrid Time + Aggressor

Now i think System Hack is worthless unless you want an fully stacked paladin faster (Uav with points + time + your choice togheter with Hack with Points + Time + Time) or you want to disable exo's and streaks

We got exactly what consoles got, no more, no less. Maps don't run any better than they did, still skipping with mouse polling rates over 125, still can't fucking play Defender, sniper rifle crosshairs are still misaligned, still a whole mess of issues that will probably never even get fixed let alone addressed.

I saw my daily challenge was to win 3 games of CTF. Cool, let's do it. "No games found". Looks like matchmaking isn't fixed since there's 10k people on right now and zero chance of nobody playing CTF.

My mouse polling rate is 1000 and I have no mouse issues, haven't since launch. I know some people do but don't assume everyone does.

still can't fucking play Defender

Again this is a case by case basis. My friend has no FPS drops or stutter on Defender since the patch, I still do but it's not as severe. People are able to load into it now with shader preload which many people couldn't do before.

That's how PC works. People abandon the less popular modes and bolster popular modes. TDM, DOM, Moshpit are where the players are. Very few people if anybody will be in CTF, Momentum, Uplink, etc. Same thing has been happening since BO2(which coincides with the decline in sale for COD).

Yes because they are in Moshpit, Domination, (Hardcore TDM KC DOM), KC, TDM, maybe hardpoint, HC SnD, maybe SnD

Many gave up on Mommentum, CTF, Uplink, Classic modes, Ranked,...

My connections were bad at first. I am getting 2 paladins a game now though.

I played for a good 2 hours; I'm unsure if the patch improved my experience. I had to go through multiple teams with bad teammates (the usual) and suffered from lag comp most of the time (again, the usual). I'd say it has stayed relatively the same.

I'll have to play more to be conclusive, but that'll be at least 1.5 weeks from now as I'm travelling for my Christmas vacation.

With that said, happy holidays to everyone. :P

I'm loving the game since the patch. People will bitch about the EM1 but it's not that much more powerful(17 hits to kill instead of 20). The gun I am worried about is the ASM1 since the patch it rivals the BAL pre-patch and I fully expect people to be crying nerf within a week or two.

I think SBMM has been toned down as well, at least it seems so atm given me and my buddies average scores now vs pre-patch.
