    Latency : What is being done about this and when will it be brought up to a better standard.... I know the servers got an update but it has not sorted this BIG factor of the game out..... Certainly not good when 2 out of 4 bullets actually land on target and not just go through them..... Or being killed when in cover by magic bullets either.

    The latice system and spawn camping : This really needs looked at, Far too much re-deploying going on and spam into spawns along with cramming 60 people into one tiny area for a point, it's just ridiculous, Be fine for smaller groups but not for this scale. It's great for the farmers but not for good flow of battle.... Re-deploying back into the same bases over and over again after fighting for it until their zerg runs out of steam isn't great game play. Do we really need so many bases about the place

    Infiltrator : They are everywhere, Pick a role and stick to it, they should not be able CQC so easily specially in this latency mess.

    Vehicles need more room around the maps, People get crampt up into small areas or routes and it makes it was too easy for the enemy to come up and blast everything dead in seconds, Specially with the Vulcan Harasser(I think that's what it's called) that thing is ridiculous. again do we really need so many bases about the place.

    Orbital Strikes : What were you thinking having those things go off every couple minutes, Any progress you finally make is just flushed away in a matter of minutes..... Well except for the crown seems like those battles can go on for hours as per usual. Character animations look wonky as hell at times I'll put that down to server lag maybe!!

    That New sanctuary.... been in it once won't be back in it, What's the point ? Was funny for 2 seconds watching people run around in circles spamming emotes...

    Bastion, Guess it's something new, I'm in no way interested with it at all, Just another Spammy vehical and depending on how good or organised your side is at getting it down it can be annoying for some time. Why can't we grind for cosmetic gear for our characters ? If I was going to spend Real money it won't be for gear, I'd actually pay a subscription if the game functioned properly.... After 7-8 years you'd think it would be right!

    Squad play : Unless you are running with an outfit with their open platoons, 90% of other public run squads are just all over the place and you may as well be running solo, Stricter spawning rules need to be in place to keep squads together...would make it a lot more enjoyable for newer players as well as older ones.

    Now that you have this influx of players that you knew you were going to have you took away Koltyre so players can wait around in the training area Hoping for them to pay up into the access Sneaky Dogs.

    Only A scratch on the surface but these are the main issues I see need addressed ASAP the new team i have some faith in and hopefully the good changes will come.

    Latency: give the devs a lot of money and they'll make it happen. weve been using the same servers for, what, 5ish years now, and have only been closing/merging some? of course there would be latency issues.

    Infil: its because they are versitile. want CQC? use an SMG or boltie. want mid range? DMR and a boltie. long range? boltie. however, infils lack AV capabilites that all other classes have, lack meaningful support to other squad/team mates, and unless you dump into a specific build, are ambush predators and will loose in 1V1s. latency regardless.

    Vehicles: nah, they are fine. hossin is the only map with consistant spacing issues. vehivles have plenty of operationg room on the OG continents

    OS: dont know what you are saying. not all problems are tied to latency on DBGs end you know.

    Sanctuary: well, if you are a vet, they only 2 things you need from it are the alert weapons and outfit business dealing. aside from that its just like any other player hub (e.x. relays in Warframe) if you are new, there are plenty of cosmetics you can get with alert currency

    Bastion: you know these behemoths are the least spammable vehicle in the game, right? an outfit can only pull one every couple of days and they last 1 hour. read sancuary blurb for you answer to cosmetics.

    squad play: it varries, just as it always has, just as it always will. outfit platoons/squads are better organized than pubies.

    Koltyr: Koltyr was always useless. i taught nothing and vets would use it as a live fire playground against noobs with alts. the new player experience needs to be worked on, yes, but removing koltyr wasn't for "pay DBG money" reasons.
