Let the stacks play against the stacks. Not fair to solo players

1 ReplyThis "get good" theme from PVP players is toxic. Y'all need to grow up. Oh, yeah, you're probably still 12.

7 RepliesIron banner is around for a week. In that week I never struggle to find a game in the solo playlist, so the arguement "there's a lack of players" isnt a very strong one. There's still alot of players playing every game mode. Being matched against a six stack of meta using shatterdiving hunters or double dashing dawnblades with shotguns isn't fun. I leave more games than I actually play lately because of this.

If you are in a party of 3 or above you should automatically go in team mode anyone can win when they are running around in a 2 or 3 team shooting solo players as at respawn they will constantly run into 2 or 3 v 1

It makes too much sense therefore it shall not be implemented.

Both sides MUST have equally sized fireteam(s) and equal # of solo players. 6 stack vs 6 stack, 5stack/1solo vs 5stack/1solo, etc.

Don't worry. Cross-play is going to fix everything. And by fix, I mean it will be a dumpster-fire of epic proportions.

34 Replies1. The player base isn't big enough to keep dividing it like that. 2. SBMM would solve 90% of the problems that people are trying to get at through such playlists. IOW< the issue isn't stacks vs non-stacks. Its about the BEST PLAYERS stacking up, so that they can pubstomp and stat-farm weaker players. SBMM would put a stop to that, and severely lessen the advantages people would gain by running stacked. Because the more stacked you run? The longer matchmaking takes, and the better the players you get matched against.

Yes yes make an online multiplayer game solo braindead friendly yes come on cry a lil bit more you one eyed raccoon. Find a team. Your choice.

Agreed.

37 RepliesMatchmaking pools will get scarcer for people who stack. You're punished for playing with others, which is the whole point of the game to play with other people... Maybe if randoms could hit the wide side of a -blam!-ing barn matches wouldn't be so unbalanced.

3 Replies1) get over it 2) freelance trials will be a hell of an undertaking to implement. Along with this, you’d hate your teammates almost all the time. 3) if you think freelance raids would work… I understand this is pvp focused, but think of all implications.

1 ReplyOr we just have team matching criteria. A two stack of good players matches a two stack of similarly skilled players. Rest of the lobby is filled with CBMM. Same for 3s, 4s, 5s, and 6s. That would be much better than penalizing the 2 dudes with full time jobs just playing together here and there. No reason a group of 2 0.9s should have significantly increases chances of matching a six stack of stat farmers. I've said it before and I'll say it again: Freelance Iron Banner was a short term band aid fix to a universal problem. The odds of matching a sweat stack shot up for casual friends in the normal playlist and mercies are just as common as before.

5 Repliesgreat idea, and well overdue. You could also add armour modifiers to people stacking so over 2 stacks and you get 5% less shields, up to 6 stacks getting 20% less shields
-
10 RepliesFreelance Gambit should definitely be a thing. Beyond that though, I don’t really see the need for it.
-
i hate freelance playlists, they're full of sweats facing a team of 6 average skills with some communication is much preferable
-
it's a community based game, so I don't think solo players or being "fair" to them is a priority. Take it for what it's worth but every aspect of this game is improved upon with a team

Edited by Double07: 8/1/2021 5:45:05 PMBut that will make the game less frustrating, and more playable?!? Why would you want that?!?
-
6 RepliesHonestly the longer I play the less I hate this idea. Every PvP mode should have a freelance version and tbh, a strikes and Gambit freelance would be wonderful too. If this dumb game is going to make us grind bounties to do master VoG, then I don't want it to take forever because everybody else is doing the same thing I am.
