Since the last 2 patches the MM puts team of way too big ability differences together.
If you have 2 or even 3 really good players in one team, the rest will be completely noobs - if you are lucky.
The teams are full of players who have not even a basic sense of battlefield awareness, they totally ignore the map and chat.
I have seen more games with 5 players having under 100dmg in the last weeks then in the whole first half of the year. Or the year before.
That is tremendously frustrating, especially as a light pilot. If you run to your team with an enemy in your back, you want them to shoot back and not ignore you and your tailsitter while you run around your teammates being shot at.
Or if you lure 3 enemies to one side of the map and tell your team they should push the other side, then what happens is that they sit even more in a bad defensive position (death valley as I call it) until you are dead and they are flanked from 3 sides. You can even tell them in chat there are 2 enemies in your back turn around; and they will just continue getting shot in back until 4 of them are dead this way.
And it also makes it bloody hard to know where the enemy will be since enemy teams also have stupid pilots so as a light you sometimes run around a normally empty corner in some far away part into the faces of 2 assaults.
You could say that makes it more interesting, but it still means there are 2 bloody stupid assaults - that will survive and flank your team in back because your team will not use this possibility even if you tell them THREE TIMES IN CAPITALS.
Its just awfully frustrating.

Sarcasm in written form is a hard concept to grasp for some people.
Hast recht, ist echt peinlich.
