Soldiers, new orders from the Ministry of Truth! If you're distributing Freedom above level 6, there are no longer Liberty Scientists allowed. Stay with your squad and distribute Justice as a unit!
Thank you for acknowledging this message. Headquarters out!
Actually I found most easy and simple to run 2/2 split at lv7+, especially with the split sub primary objectives. For the TCS it makes sense to stick together cause you have to do them in order.
If everyone is good and has decent game sense, I also find that strategy optimal. But in pickup games I'm tired of trying to fight a full swarm with one guy all the way across the map.
If it's pub game I just throw the reinforcement toward where it makes sense to progress the mission. If host wants to kick me they can, but I am playing in ways that makes sense.
Funny though, there are times where you joined a low level players trying to farm 7+ super samples, and they got wrecked mercilessly and quit left and right. Sometimes I am the only one left and still manage to finish the mission, just not extract successfully as my load out aren't solo oriented. I know level are not the same as skill(my group have a couple new player that did really well at 7+), but the quit after dying 3 times still kinda hilarious when they see a 40+ can't really carry them.(or bomb them out of necessity since their positioning is really bad.)
The number of times in pickup games I end up completing a objective, finding the super samples while the randoms are hunkered down fighting the waves that they started at spawn, while burning through reinforcements. Just move!
