If it isnt known by others or by you. The reason people found combat hard in open beta and awkward spawns even till now, is because they forget to leave their team after they finish a mission.

if you do not leave your team after a mission and go in another mission, you will be on a team still but they won't be in the mission with you unless they came by chance to the same mission as you, and the enemy will be hard and you wont have anyone with you.

so do not forget to leave your team after a mission in which you went in and got auto joined to a team.

it could also be that they were sub par and had only been playing the game a day before screaming how HARD it was on the forums.

and you kind of had it... see some of the maps were supposed to be TEAM maps.... instead of creating a few instances with several people , the system was creating lots of instances with 1 or 2.

Now all these people had to do was change to an instance that actually had people in it but they had only been playing a few hours and didnt have a clue
