There were plenty of mercy rule games when they had different matchmaking settings, its poor team balance and the locking mechanic, and outside of freelance its the usual Bungo matchmaking on top of that where you hardly ever match another large fireteam when you are in one yourself. Also, as of now it really does not feel like that the matchmaking is connection based either, there is so much lag and the hit detection is very inconsistent, and most of my lobbies have players from different continents, both in freelance and regular IB. I’ve backed out of more games than i’ve completed this week because i can’t be bothered staying in games where the opponents don’t take damage and i’m killed around corners, stasis is aggravating enough but the lag just makes the game unplayable.
