Around midnight managed to get into a match as LSM. Can you believe that, it actually did find a match. Which has been still lost at the last minute despite having the bar full at 99,9% because you know, its LSM, the faction that shoots teammates in the back, has JPAs camping behind a column somewhere, people chasing kills instead playing the fucking objective and other shit. Twas quite the nightmare express.
Waited 40 minutes to get into a game. Five minutes in it crashed. Its maddening how good this game could be, yet how absolutely bad it is. From bolter and las cannon shots that do nothing, to increased spawn times because the game is loading...something, to absolutely horrible teammates that don't listen. The devs can't help the last part, but for the love of the Emperor, I implore you, fix these gameplay issues before the game dies completely because of poor decisions.
The Campaign bar is 35MM long, and 5MM of that is filled. After 2 days out of 10 days. So progress is: 1/7 Time spent: 1/5 or 2/10 if you wish. And this is a weekend when people have time to play. I fully expect the SM campaign to loose as it always did before. So even if we say SM keep up their fight during the workdays against all odds, they will only have the bar filled to 5/7 . Which I do not expect. I fully expect it to be around 4/7 at best.
Played my 10 wins out of 10 matches with LSM on day 1. Spent the rest playing others (mainly Ork and Eldar) and found out it's not fun to always start outnumbered and getting stomped as the result. So meh I'm done, I don't care enough for an LSM shoulder anyway.
Just for fun. Has of few minute ago we had by the world map: SM:341 in game/ 19 in queud CSM: 202 in game 1 in queud (188 v SM) Ork: 116 in game 0 queud (76 v SM) Eldar: 95 in game and 0 in queud (74 v SM)
Those numbers are abit gimped, since they do not show premade groups or people who are in the "battle now" queque since they are not yet deployed to a warzone. Keep in mind that f2p players ALL have to go through battle now. The map only displays the current population in matches and the premium (paid) solo users who specifically quequed to a preselected faction theatre. The dev-emperor will protect by moving the goalpost. Can't have 50% of the pop missing out on their holy shoulder.
Even if you have your 10 wins which I also have. If LSM does not win the campaign it was all for naught and we all have wasted our time in the Eternal Queue.
The las and bolter part sounds like lag on your end. That or fighting against people like leroy with 25-30 ms speed deamons
As a SM player it is little hard to get in fight.Longest que time was..hmm 30 min. or so.My first race was Ork then Eldar and then Chaos.Now i play only SM side .If i have to wait..then i will wait.
