So now that Tide of Shadows has been going on for a while, what are your thoughts on it?

I personally love Rotjaw and the new weather, and am having a lot of fun in the Bayou!

I would like to see more of a focus on performance both local and server side.

I think we'll see more of that playing out in the fall/winter update.

Some of my more controversial opinions are that solo self revive is OP and the timer needs to be increased or some other constraints placed on it.

I don't really think it's OP, but I think it's having a really terrible effect on the MMR system. I've seen crazy high KDRs in recent months with some people just slaughtering entire lobbies. The nice part about hunt is there's always some chance for the enemy team, but it's very frustrating to lose several matches in a row to an alleged "MMR 3 or 4" that has a 1.5-2.1 KDR.

I also think it might be interesting if Crytek explored an alternative solo revive mechanism... e.g., maybe they have to revive at a clue some distance away, perhaps with a sound effect at the revive location (which kind of gives each party a way to mutually escape). It's not particularly fun on either end when the body is camped.
