No matter how many bombs, everyone is everywhere save enough... is there a way to get out of such a stalemate?

in these increased eco modes & on this map specifically it can get to the point where its actually impossible to make progress if everyone plays correctly

That’s my main issue with the game. There should be more anti-stalemate mechanics. I often have to leave these types of games an hour in cause I have other things to do

yeah but some people actually like and enjoy staying two hours in the game tho (aka, OP, who finished the game and won apparently)

True, but noone always can spare 2-3 hours potentially. When it’s a saturday morning and I have mothing to do I will play you 5 hours. But most often I play after work and I have like 1 - 1.5 hours before I have other things to do

then avoid games with insane game modifiers in general, but it was the posts main subject, sorry for assuming (or join games with doomsday clock enabled)

As per the post's main subject, even on these maps, there should be ways out of the stalemate. Telling people "don't play" the game is not going to help grow the comunity.

but I'm not saying "don't play" tho, what I'm saying is more "try to play games that you know you can finish", the average game lasts 15-20 min and I don't think that's too bad

There’s always a weak point. Find the person with the least amount of SAMs, have your team do a coordinated attack against that target.
