Groups VS random players are simply not fair. People playing in a group should be queued up only with other people playing in a group, or the game should have a no groups allowed separate mission queue where you simply can’t join if you’re in a group and it’s just all randoms.
Sucks for the people wanting to play fusions but blame the cheese clans running 4man gank groups
the matchmaking is alreday dead this isnt possible
but it is if u think about it…
it’s the same as clan wars but only 1 round.
and clan confrontation.
i say give it try.
clan wars is dead and matchmaking takes 1 to 2 minutes to find a match and then play with 4 players 4 bots
that’s what i’m saying…
cw is dead, so why not do the group thingy ?
pvp is full of bots anyway, on pc and console… CC has been much more fun for us even with cut-down builds as we usually run 10k
When you think about it further, a mission queue separate for group playing people could be kinda fun, as it’s 8 vs 8 you could have 2 4-man groups on one team, 4 2-man groups on the other, or two 4s on both sides, 3+2+bots on one, 4+bots on the other and so on
And as an added bonus you get rid of things like 4 people running hermes booster TOW builds in normal missions and being untouchable for 5+ battles in a row on the enemy team because nobody can ever reach them let alone destroy them with random players while being spammed by tows from the enemy spawn and kept at bay by retcher and destructor bots and their perfect aim
I feel like groups could be restricted to just the competitive modes (CW, CC, BfU).
Maybe allow them in raids too, if the PVE players like groups.
There’s gonna be a solo queue battle for uranium soon, so it shows that they’re at least toying with the idea in some sense
I actually like playing with randoms better in the competitive modes. As much as a team can help it can also hinder if they are not well coordinated.
I prefer playing with randoms myself as well. But I do feel like competitive modes are where groups belong, because those modes are supposed to be more challenging. Even if I’m not playing in a group, I expect others are going to be in those modes, and I enjoy the challenge.
Being in a group is only negative if the people are bad lol
Depends when players try to stick together they can sometimes get underfoot. Especially if players aren’t using voice to coordinate.
I always found the whole “stay together” thing as advice for bad players, not that the advice is bad but moreso that it’s the most basic thing you could do or tell a noob in the hope that they might survive and do something.
There are many instances where grouping up is bad or wouldn’t be the best way to counter or engage. Perhaps with my playstyle being the complete opposite I have a different opinion on it, but either way I think there’s 0 chance that a group could do worse than randoms unless the group are just worse.
