You may have to pardon a slight rage here, this seems to happen alot for me, and it really grinds my teeth.
What on earth happened to that idea for map scaling based on the number of players in the server? You know that idea where the playable area would be restricted by mine fields, boarded up windows/doors, commanders shouting "Fall back in line traitor or you shall be shot!" and such to make the game more enjoyable for servers with fewer numbers of players
It was quoted here in this video a while back:

Look at 7.15 - 8.20 : Playable area scaling to team sizes
In depth description in spoiler:
Countdown works, because the focus is very much on the objectives due to the single lives. People can't afford to ruun out into no mans land away from the objective to try and catch people off guard, if they try and fail to get to their "Spot" they can't just respawn and try again, they are simply out, end of, the reward isn't worth the risk. In other game modes with small players however a player can keep going for it, and severely impair any kind of attack the other team can manage because half the team will be dead before anyone knows they are there. Usually they will only encounter 1 on 1 situations as well, and since they have the advantage of terrain, they become very hard to kill.
The idea above was a quality idea, a good solution to this very frustrating problem. It was one of the numerrous reasons I bought the game. ROHoS has loads of great features, and deserves to be recognised as the quality game it is. But this feature I feel is a bloody important one for the sake of its longevity.
I hope there is a plan to introduce it, cause right now its a total pain in the hole.
