Wait, old Eliminations had everyone with the same weapons/loadout... Oh wow I didn't know that (plus I like the sounds of that), thanks for the history lesson Jet.
I really like playing elims whenever i'm bored of encounters but they really need to make some changes. If you leave, there should be some sort of punishment, say you can't queue for the next 15 mins because people leave way too often. Adding to that, it makes no sense that when someone leaves/disconnects that the points they already earned are not counted towards the teams reward. Also, I would like to see some sort of necessary skill level before you can actually queue for elims. Happens way too often that you get teamed with a bunch of raincoats who don't know what they're doing yet they're picking the best guns
