Pretty much this
Game is balanced, indeed, but in all the wrong ways. Damage output is too high and missions are too short/simple. This is why at high level is so broken, because it becomes a game of luck more than anything. FT has 4 players, while Pred is just one, so while FT would need 4 mistakes, Pred only need to make one and is fucked. There’s no room for error recovery, but definitely, with a good team, FT can recover from mistakes (thanks mostly to the Field Medic) while Pred has to evade recon-spotting-snipers and scout-duelist-chasers.
I think that once we get a game mode that allows Pred players to team up, people will begin to understand how FT is not as OP as they make it look like. Like VoodooMagic said, game was designed with teamplay in mind. And that’s the strongest edge FT has ATM, even with meme loadouts, a good working team will win against most preds and even put a strong fight against those who are better than them.
Some people will claim here they can 1v1 ANY pred and win… we all know is bullshit and an exaggeration, as much as they wanna believe their own dreams. I will 1v1 any “Top Tier” FT player here as long as they are alone in the match. Game is not that broken.
