Waiting for up to an hour just to get steam rolled isnt exactly fun, neither is wiping the floor with randoms. Ive done both and hate going in groups, theres 0 skill involved unless you find the other premades which is rare.

That kind of action would be reserved for a PvP based game.
Yes, please seperate the solo and pre-mades and make the queues even longer.

From what I can tell matchmaking already tries to pit premades vs premades. Separating everyone would just make the queue time longer.
Now...I wish there was a way to get into groups with and AGAINST -good- premade groups. I feel like the only time I get good games is when I queue up with a full pt.
It's like you want to be stuck in queue forever.
It doesnt, when I went with premades I got maybe 3 matches out of dozens that had another premade, and even still if A side has one you're still left with a 33% chance to fight against them. Separating them would guarantee fighting others, and the queues wouldnt be worse, the solo ones will still go around the same, the premades will most likely be the 8vs8vs8 whcih is fine.
If they separated premades, they would have to do it in a non-frontlines setting. It would take forever to get 1 premade from each GC matched for an 8v8v8 game so people would just stop running premades and the overall frontlines population would decline and queues would be longer.
Having an 8v8 wolves den or eliminating the GC restriction could help accomplish this, although I feel like even then the queues would be pretty long as there likely won't be many full groups of 8 running. Separating may work on the japanese data centers where pvp is more popular but it won't work for NA.
People could also game the system and just queue at the same time aiming to get into the same game. It'd obviously be more difficult, but as long as you queue at the same time there's a high likelihood most of your group will get into the same game due to the fact that frontlines is separated by grand company.
yeah make seperate the queue solo and pre-made and make the queue even longer, and make frontline as dead as wolfden XD
if it don't work in NA, in Europe it will certainly be even worst, seperate the queue for games we need already need to wait about 30 minutes or longer....
