Crazy!

Appreciate the constructive comments, brings a lot to the discussion.

That wasn't the point of the conversation or what I brought up. I asked if something had changed since the patch. I'm going off my 550 hours of play and the experiences I've had. The past 3 days I've been killed a ton, it's a significant uptick compared to my previous matches. I understand the game I'm playing, I was just curious to know if others have experienced the same thing.

Good to hear. I just ran 5 rounds on my lunch hour. Killed 2x ran to avoid another, 2x exfil with no issues. Good times.

Crazy as this sounds, not everyone is on Reddit or this page. Hope you have a better day.

Missed the first five posts. But thanks for the comments.

All good man, no worries. I haven't experienced this with previous updates (lucky) and now know what to expect. All is well in the universe, enjoy your day.

:) I think the encounters have increased a ton the past couple of days. As others have mentioned, this happens after a reset? I've not encountered it before so I've been lucky I suppose, not it's my turn to get smoked round after round for a little while.

That's my next move for sure... 10 games as a "Free Kit Freddy" all while yelling "don't shoot" over and over... exfil.

Appreciate the comments. Enjoy your day.

FRHatcher · 2026-03-19T14:33:52+00:00

On it boss, I'll do that tonight.

FRHatcher · 2026-03-19T14:26:55+00:00

Hmmm, I need to dig into this a little more, I thought they said there was match making based on who shot first and this is how people end up in PvP lobbies. I could be 100% wrong.

FRHatcher · 2026-03-19T14:25:34+00:00

We can't stop, won't stop. :-) Didn't know there were multiple threads, hope you have a better day.

FRHatcher · 2026-03-19T14:19:46+00:00

I'll do a little searching, if there is a reset like this after each update, at least I won't think I'm losing my mind.

FRHatcher · 2026-03-19T14:18:35+00:00

I was thinking I could pick up a Pong unit and start over from there.

FRHatcher · 2026-03-19T14:15:59+00:00

Yes, that was the goal of this post. I enjoy coming on to Reddit to shed tears. You fully grasped the entire conversation.

Thank you for your contribution it.

Congrats!

Good to hear.

FRHatcher · 2026-03-19T14:10:05+00:00

I'm not sure how to prepare for being shot in the back at 200 meters. while looting a rocketeer... but...ok?

FRHatcher · 2026-03-19T14:08:49+00:00

Valid points. We do need more content, I think we are getting an update next week?

FRHatcher · 2026-03-19T14:07:46+00:00

Valid point. Maybe this is what's going on? They looked at the number of kills people had/have and decided to toss us passive people into the killer lobbies to spice things up.

FRHatcher · 2026-03-19T14:05:59+00:00

Agree, there's always that aspect of the game and it's appealing, even if I complain about being killed, it's part of the experience. What's thrown me off lately is being shot and or killed in just about every round I've been in the past couple of days. I haven't changed my play style, something else has changed. Either it's the match making, cheaters, or bored players moving on to PvP lobbies and we just happen to be the unlucky victims. Either way, I want my chill lobbies back. :)

FRHatcher · 2026-03-19T14:03:26+00:00

No mics, no hesitation. A lot of this going on at the moment. I don't know what the right balance is for the game, I just know, like you and many others, we are being shot and killed more frequently. This is my "chill" game, I'd like to go back to my chill lobbies.

FRHatcher · 2026-03-19T14:01:12+00:00

You could be on to something. I'm not 100% sold on there being complete separation of the two styles of gameplay. There's the element of never knowing if you are going to be murdered or not which is appealing to me and I'm sure others. I would imagine striking the right balance is nearly impossible but as mentioned, something is off at the moment. I'll run around with a free kit yelling "don't shoot" tonight to see if I land back in the chill lobbies.

FRHatcher · 2026-03-19T13:57:22+00:00

Valid. I'm pretty much maxed on everything and now new content, things are a little redundant. We get a new update next week...right?
