"The passive buffs that high level players have gives them a very unfair advantage over lower leveled players, not to mention someone who is brand new to the game. "

Have you noticed in this game many times you will say "how could a game developer so very very smart do something so dumb?"

That is because the strategy is to humiliate and frustrate you into buying gold and experience boosts.  This manipulation tactics is a double edged sword, and will drive people away.  I wonder why their can't be a 1 on 1 pvp for better queue waits and to leave pve people alone?  Yes it would be broken but so is the 4 on 1 so who cares?  It would still be fun.  I wonder why they won't take my moneys so I can play pvp when I want to and pve when I want to, instead of making ,e nervously roll dice.  I don't like gambling gambling makes me frustrated.  We who love the potentials of this game wonder many things, and the answer of why is what I wrote above and that will not change.

the surprise versus player invasions are happening to frequently with more crazy mmr and bad teammates who don't know how to play and it's not fun.  Even when I win with good score its not fun its just stress.  I want to pick my mode co-op versus computer or versus player depending on my mood. I want to pay to have control but there is no options.  This game is not for me someone else can be the surprised clown. bye.
