After finding out about the latest Battle Royals just over a week ago I was excited about finally getting a chance to play them (I even set my alarm for 5 oclock in the morning to get in on the first ones)
But after playing 10 or so games I was left let down by the experience. Because all the games HAVE to be played freestyle, as my internet connection is slower than most, In freestyle I generally run around 10 seconds behind. Despite continuosly hitting refresh I got eliminated in several without getting the chance to deploy. By point collectors not players trying to win the game ( yes you Eternal Shadow,,,3 games when u then got eliminated yourself next round as you left yourself to weak to gain a few precious points) All terminator games.
But then In games I made it past the point whores it was the usual players you see playing freestyle sweep the board, not because they are neccesary good players but because they have fast internet.
Obviously if the games were srandard you would still get the point collectors hitting in the first round for points but when all this was out the way the better players could use strategy not internet speed.
Maybe all this is what Battle Royals have been like in the past but as this was my first time playing I thought it would be a better experience.
