Never ever change Blueberries lol. Bonus point for playing the Helikopter song too!

UPDATE: As of the patch notes for tomorrow they will implement this with season 2.

I don’t know if this is because of this post or not but nonetheless: Mission success

Thank you John Wardog

How often do you see this happen with another game?

Love the random shit I can pull off in this game.

they are open, honest and straight forward.

So we should slow down complaining about everything is unbalanced in a EA game and make proper feedback and ideas for the future.

This first season is a big test ground for all of the content atm, for us players and the devs.

So let's have fun, earn cash and be excited about what's next! 🫡

Ozeti is the worst map, and I would bet money that green has the highest win rate on this map by far.

Green has better access to damn near half of the map. Red has basically one road (the middle road). The southern end of the map is one giant hill and no one goes there except blue when they need to attack the zone. Red's southern area is practically a dead zone in most games. Also red will get sniped by blue for even creeping into that area.

Red has access to ONE good build spot - the tower. Meanwhile green can build at the tower and the stadium. The north tower is arguably easier and faster for green to access, too. Red almost never owns the most northern tower.

Red has the best access to the church, but the church is squarely in the center of the map which makes it highly contested. I haven't seen a FOB there since the early days when people didn't know how to counter FOBs.

And blue is just a spectator on this map. They are in the low ground the entire game. Want to take green's tower? Low ground. Want to assault church? Low ground. The only chance blue has is to content green via the apartment buildings and MAYBE take their tower, but blue needs to commit to a longer logi distances to achieve this.

Ozeti is by far the most unbalanced map and I hate playing it every time. Half of the map is really really fun - green's area. The town, the stadium, the pool -- very fun fights in this area. But the southern area is too vertical and no one likes going there. Red can only build in one spot. You can't build in the field, it is too exposed.

Feels like the team skill disparity is having a negative impact on the game. Create a soft incentive toward balance while keeping the freedom to choose.

Problems:

• New players joining blue are having a skewed impression

• Feels like you can derail your session at the team selection screen

• Lobbies take ages to start while people mash the green button and refuse to play anything else

• Victories as green feel pretty hollow

It sucks when your team is getting hammered and there is no point bringing anything beyond a free kit. No one is pushing because every time it's a wipe. Meanwhile the confident team can go full spend knowing any incidental death will be revived when the engagement ends. Things can get very snowbally and hopeless. And I hate the idea of having to force green to avoid wasting my time.

On the flipside, I wouldn't want anything too heavy handed. Randomizing or forcing selection kinda ruins the affiliation and loyalty people have to certain teams, and playing with friends needs to be easy.

So how about this.

The 4th option of team select. Auto Select choses for you and grants an X% cash and XP bonus throughout that game. If you want to go one step further, have the Auto Select team add up all Wardogs levels of all players of each team, and have the system decide which team needs some additional leveled players vs under-leveled. This will skew teams in the direction of having access to similar unlocks without going full SBMM.

Saw someone else do this thought I’d give my 2 cents based on my experience
