Make traversing the map less of a work

Give people a better way of coming back into the game/give wildlife more essence for kills if you're down a hive.

Reason: if a team wipes out the opposing team early on, the essence gains are almost insurmountable and the following hive captures are basically freebies.

Actually kick AFK players and BACKFILL the position.

I'm tired of every game ending in a surrender for these two reasons.

Change the map. The map is too big. This map will never "make it". That's a priority here. Change PvE so it's not just shooting dummies that might as well not be here. Add ultimates so the game is more flashy and catch an eye of a spectator

1. yes, especially with Earl and Mendoza, their guns sound very brutal now and i love it. I didn't notice any changes with Drakhal,Bugg, Rahi and Sazan. when Ajonah hits something with grapple, there is a awfully loud clunk noise, it should be tonned down. Shakirri melee attack sound feels a bit off , but it is a lot better than previous one, also in a fight shakiri vs shakirri it is dificult to recognize who is hitting who, would be great if enemy Shakirri had diffrent sound on melee.
2. weapons sound effects are pretty on point in my opinion, Mendoza rifle sounds more like a bolter now but it still fits.
3. Sound effect of abilities are great and very fitting.
4. i feel like hives should be addressed next. Hives should be more dangerous and scale into late game.

• Often I find myself in games where I can't hear my teammates because one or more of them is super quite. I can turn of the whole game audio, but then I'm getting blasted anytime some one else speaks up. We really need per team mate volume levels. So we can turn up quite people and turn down loud people.
• There are many spots where the UI offers you the option to quit the game. But the game doesn't actually quit. Like if you had a bad game, and it's over, you can't quit the game. Instead it forces you to the score screen. It's like your telling the game, I don't want to talk, and it's telling you it doesn't care, and keeps talking.
• Text in UI some times doesn't look crisp and sharp. For instance HOME, collections, Battle Pass Store.
• UI can be inconsistent. IE putting the cursor over HOME has no graphical feedback, while it does for Collections.
• If you move quickly the UI, visual feedback is skipped.
• Purchasing Credit lacks audio feedback. Both mousing over buttons, and clicking on buttons.
• Can't Rotate skins to look at the whole skin before buying them.
• Mousing over beta test doesnt' sound a sound effect.
• UI says press y to change hero, but pressing y doesn't do anything.
• tutorial says collect all the essence, but doesn't show you what essence looks like. Collecting essence has no indicator that your on the right track. Like the check mark filling up, or a progress part, or 1 out of 10, or like a message collected 1 essence.
• Some hero comps feels really IMBA
• Often find games where one team is super over powered to the other.
• with levels increasing power, often they just raise the skill gap between teams.
• The game often feels like a chess game, as in, if you had a bad opening, the game is over. VS say overwatch, where you can fight for every last inch.

Thanks for listening.

Getting from point A to point B is such a chore. You have to constantly keep using your movement ability to get from one point to another. I think if theres an " out of combat " speed boost things should be better. Or the idea of Speed plants that i read on here sounds nice too.
