APB Riot Mode sucks

1) The main problem with the new game mode is that they've designed it to require a certain number of players to be fun, but the game population has tanked too far to support it.

You can easily go 10 minutes between playing if you get eliminated early, there's no second server with enough population to support a new match to switch to so you have to wait. Nobody wants to wait, so nobody plays. Negative feedback loop.

2) Look at these spawns! We kept getting spawned inside the red zone, so far from safety that it was impossible to get back in the match. When it was possible, people were sitting inside the safe zone ready to kill us. Again, bad mechanics = people stop playing = negative feedback loop.

3) Like every other game mode in APB, good matchmaking also depends on a high server population, which doesn't exist. Every match we played as a 2 person team was eventually won by a 4 person squad.

It's simply ridiculous that the game allows a 4 person squad to go up against a bunch of duos, most of which are random solos put together. It's a great way to get people to stop playing.

4) To put a nail in the coffin, there was evidence that the winning squad had actually more than 4 people playing.. The same 2 teams always made it to the end and it was clear they weren't shooting each other until they had to. This kind of sick metagaming has always plagued APB and creates an atmosphere where people who are trying to have fun just don't want to play and face the toxicity, making any existing toxicity even worse.
