Anthem is Dropping Players Into the Final Battle Before They're Leveled Up

One of the fun aspects of Anthem is that you can join players in the game and help each other out at certain levels and areas so everyone can progress. However, one of the key elements of that is that the game doesn't throw you into fights you're not ready for, so you can level up at a reasonable pace and not be killed immediately for something you're unprepared for. That's not so much the case these days, as several players have reported on Twitter that the game's quickplay option is throwing players into the final boss battle at various levels that are seriously unprepared for the battle ahead.

Don't use quickplay if you're new to Anthem. It can backfill you into the final mission of the story and spoil. This level 3 got in my mission. He ended up leaving, but a lvl 2 backfilled 5~ mins later and didn't.

No word yet from BioWare or Electronic Arts if they're even aware of the issue or if they have any plans to fix it at the moment, but it's clear players are getting frustrated with this hiccup on social media as it's throwing several off their game and leaving them no choice but to avoid the mode for now.
