Then when you want to actually do an activity like a deathmatch you have to wait for matchmaking and then the loading - takes forever. Once you are finally in a match it's okay but as soon as the match ends you have to wait for the world to load again and then queue again which takes bloody forever. Spend 2hrs playing the game and have only a few matches, more time spent looking at loading screens than actually playing anything.

This could easily compete for the most expensive bug in history, up there with the Pentium Bug. It might have halved the revenue potential of a billion dollar franchise.
Judging from your word choice "deathmatch" and your experience with long loading/matchmaking times I guess you might be a fellow Quake Champions player. Even if you are not, I agree that long loading times are a mood killer when you just want to play a couple of quick matches after work in your limited free time. It is even worse when you know the game's development is abandoned and it will never get fixed, even though you enjoy the game itself.
GTA V has a deathmatch mode and the parent comment sounds like it's talking about that. Especially the "once it's over, you need to load into the primary session, then wait for matchmaking, then wait for loading again" sounds exactly like GTA V.
Ah I see, thanks for the clarification.
