There should be a more friendly alternative to BA that isnt hostile to new players and to team games.
Hostile to new players and team games? WTF is that? The mod is not hostile to anyone, however it rewards people who play well, as any game should. Are you suggesting that the mod should instead allow even shitty players to drag a game out forever and that would be fun? New players (or ones who refuse to learn and get better) should not be making balance decisions, they should be learning to play properly.
Also team games work fine in BA, e.g. something like 3v3 on deltasiege dry, or 3v3 riverdale, or 4v4 xan the terra. These are fun games with BA. However 6v6 DSD gets old really fast, but that's because that's a horrible and boring way to play, not because there is something wrong with BA. BA is balanced on the premise that to win you must expand and control territory, if you pack tonnes of players into a small space, you negate that premise, and BA's balance may fail. If you want to balance for crappy games like that go make Porc Annihilation.

I just wish Caydr would come back to us with a real mod that isn't biased.
Would that be the version with OP flashes? Or OP gators? Or OP weasels? Or OP mavs? What about the versions where kbots absolutely dominated vehicles, or when kbots weren't viable at all? Your attitude towards BA and the good players who balance it speak volumes about how you have tonnes of ingame time but would be no match for someone like Sleksa or Hellspawn or Noize 1v1.

Did MT's missile speed get buffed recently? I haven't actually closely watched the effect in a few versions (plus, games that go late enough to require heavy bomber-attacks are rare). It used to be that a scout would move fast enough that, while it would get killed by the first shot, it would draw fire from the first few shots from every MT in the base because it could plunge so deep in before that first missile caught-up enough to hit.
Scouts lost their flares.
