May I just offer some advice to the people being annhilated since the matchmaker phase 3 went live.

BE PATIENT!

Had about 10 games so far and the opposition is always good, no more games v newbies and this is great (except when it's a premade and I am soloing ;) )

Nearly every single time we lose it's due to people running off to do stuff for no apparent reason. We had a great position on Alpine we had ECM cover, snipers and some good short range stuff, the enemy were unable to do much against us. After 5 minutes of not moving we were starting to wear the enemy down with some nice sniping....all of a sudden 2 of our guys ran off, then the DDC with ECM cover went walkies...basically the enemy then cut us all to bits.

You can't play the way you are used to playing anymore unless you were not very good in the first place, when you play against organised players you have to be very careful as they focus fire all the time. Stay low, keep together and be patient, yes this may mean the game lasts 15 minutes, so what.

Yeah but last night I played a lot of matches and we had to adapt our strategy, the games took much longer, very tactical and then all of a sudden 2 guys run off and get killed....game over.

I am expecting phase 3 to be back up soon so am just offering some advice to other solo players to stay together and be patient during the games.

HOLY COW! YOU SAW ALPINE?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Gee, now that we HAVE a new map, it'd be nice if we could PLAY it once or twice, instead of the seemingly endless repeat of Frozen City....

even though I'm not sure what this thread is about, I think what I am saying is> deal with it.

Even in MM3 and with Elo, if you solo especially, you will still get teamed up with people who run off and die.
