Grinding games like this have a risk of a huge imbalance. Being able to not have to grid every day and be competitive keeps people coming back. If I want to go run basic guns and still have a chance, I will play.
I remember Destiny 2 was great but once you stopped doing the griding and building your level, you fell so far back you couldn't compete in Crucible with higher ranks and really killed interest in playing it.
I think they fixed this so it doesn't reset anymore. It used to be 3-4 times surrender with no load out and then one where you run to an extract and would help get you into friendly lobbies on solo.
Seems like even if you are in friendly lobbies though, once you squad up, you get pulled into more aggressive ones so really only worked for me on solos.
