ah yes the "you're playing the game you got wrong" defense

It's interesting how you bring up the map structure, because there are one or two maps that have ridiculous structures that clearly favor one side over another. I can't remember one particular one off the top of my head, but there's one where the Resistance has to plant a bomb at some location right underneath what is basically a Security death trap walling the team in at three sides, and the field of view of the Security observation points generally extends into the spawning area of the Resistance's command post.
It does have the 'storming the beachhead' feel to it, though, and a skilled team working together still can make it, but it's a less well-designed map than most of the ones I've played in, which are for the most part pretty well-balanced.
EDIT: Also, I don't seem to have very many latency problems at all, and I've definitely seen worse lobby systems. I have no idea why they were ragging on the matchmaking system.

As I'm unlocking all the attachments and the guns are beginning to handle themselves better rather than the kick-like-a-mule functionality they had without upgrades, I'm really starting to see this game as really just a beautiful, uncut gem that is really a few narrative structures shy of directing first person shooters in the right direction
It's close-knit team based play without being the futility of being an ant-size peon from Battlefield, and it's kinetic and plays fast in its own way without the one-man-army ideals from the Call of Duty series.

Man, wouldn't it be something if I could quote you criticizing critics using the same defense?
