    PS4 Casual Player's Impressions

    The game is really fun and visually appealing. That being said, I have a few pieces of constructive criticism:
    1. Let me join a friend. If they're playing in a match with a bot, I'd like to be able to join without an invite.
    2. Having the team colors alternate between blue to orange is confusing. Just have my team always be blue or orange. Trying to remember which side I'm on is annoying.
    3. Friendly fire isn't. Something needs to be done about damage from my teammates. Dying from the enemy, fine. Dying because my rando teammates are noobs, rage inducing.
    4. Matchmaking needs a tweak. If I'm absolutely crushed by the opposition, don't pit me against them again and again. Instead of requiring me to quit to the world screen and load back in, mix up the teams.

    I'm enjoying it and experience far fewer bugs and connection issues than I expected. Thank you for building a quality game.

    1) With the inclusion of orders specifically focused on AI matches, as well as the AI being quite useful for practice, having someone muscle in on your AI match uninvited would be frustrating. Easier to just send a message to your friend first.

    2) This would definitely be a quality of life improvement.

    3) The damage a teammate does is severely reduced but it can stagger you out of a combo. I am of the opinion, however, that friendly fire is important; in 2+ v 1 situations, it is part of a very real tactical layer. Positioning the opfor in front of you severely limits their effectiveness as a team because they will only get in each others way. Without that friendly fire, 2+ v 1 would be unwinnable in every scenario.

    4) They don't rotate lobbies similar to other MOBAs and CoD/Battlefield games. The only competitive shooter that will actively change up teams that I can think of is Destiny. If you'll accept some constructive criticism, playing against players that are leagues better than you is one of the best ways to get better yourself. If that's not for you though, I get it.
