I never said anything about a polished game, I was even a tester when it still required an NDA, I'm familiar with EA titles...and koth.

You're missing the points on all of these. Take snipers for instance, why put the gun in game at all instead of just the spotter scope?

For launchers you fully missed everything I said, in fact the whole comment you seem to be really hung up on thinking I just shoot and refuse to engage with anything else. I've spent practically all of my time in game doing logi, construction, spotting, and medic... It's ridiculous to start you with a break action sniper that can't headshot a naked or have the first launcher be anti-personel without an alternative for so long afterwards.

It's also not rock paper scissors, there's a lot of other ways to stop all of those. You're supposed to use whatever tools you can get your hands on to achieve whatever needs to be done, snipe the mortars, pry a door and sneaky sneaky, c4 some shit, launchers once you finally get usable ones. Having fobs be the only solution to vehicles for so long is exactly why so many matches have such high score discrepancies, it's a poor design decision. It's also weird to be so restrictive so early in EA, you want as much data as possible not just redundant information about unleveled accounts being punching bags.

I told you...

I’m pretty sure the Devs even joked about it and admitted it was intentional.

Like, if you can't imagine these decals would do that to troll cod kiddies...

I don't know if youve ever seen any video of them actually talking. That's 100% something they'd do just to fuck with people.

If that pisses you off, do what the devs keep recommending and refund the game.

Literally no one makes you play it, but I'm not telling you that again. Best of luck

The way you keep falling back on shit like "cod kiddies" is just the cherry on top lmfaooo that's literally the exact crowd the devs are going for and an even closer game comparison than the actual koth mods.
