Will there be SOLO queue for PVP in Dawntrail

[Atreus]

That's the last thing I'd want. I enjoy playing with other players, but on a level playing field. I've mentioned before, you cannot possibly know what current games without premades are like since you never queue solo. Sure, some of them are a clownfest. But many involve plenty of communication, flanking, baiting, and coordination. And they are far more interesting (to me) than those featuring premades.

You say you far prefer a game of strong, competent players. Me too. But just because you've brought three strong players with you doesn't impact the composition of the other 68! It does, however, drive some competent players away.

I got news for you pal. The competent players are all playing Crystalline Conflict, not caring about the nonexistent sanctity of Frontline solo queue. Let people play with their friends in an MMO. It's just that shrimple.

Ah the arrogance of the PvP gatekeeper. Of course they are "pal."

How many times do I have to say I am not trying to ban people playing with friends, I just want the option of a solo queue so I can play in competitive, interesting matches.

Ain't gatekeeping shit. Just telling you what it is. Frontline is mostly people leveling, people who don't know their buttons, or people whose focus is mostly on their Netflix screen. You may get a decent game now and then but not a single lobby is filled with people that are like-minded as you. "Competition" in Frontline is a farce. Split the queue like that and you'll do more damage than good.

CC would be incredibly epic if I could play with my friends. =)

solo queue would never pop for frontlines. the only reason people queue this irrelevant game mode is for the daily roulette. If you split the queues you can enjoy the 30 minute average wait times as nothing ever pops. the sooner you realize frontlines are just a casual and afkable adventure to level your level 43 astrologian that you'll never play, the better.

if people want to tryhard it who cares. let them flex their "amazing" pvp skills as they press three buttons on top of a dark knight pull then run away because they haven't figured out anything else yet. they can pat themselves on the back as they aoe down some dad gamers who dont even know whats going on.

Perhaps we can implement the following queues:

Premade queue: exclusively for premade groups
Solo queue: exclusively for solo players
Express lane: for those indifferent to grouping

This way, players know exactly what they're queuing up for.

YES please. But also adept the Rewards, so solo/express gets most and premade the least.

i play plenty of pvp. most players don't care about pvp in any form. it's a niche category in its entirety. very few dedicated pvp players aren't going to bother with frontline because it's an outdated poorly designed mode compared to CC. you can see where the development time is going. if you still care about frontlines in 2024 you're just a pub stomper avoiding the only relevant pvp grounds, because large-scale combat in this game is bad and it isn't meant for it.

I've said this in a different thread, but I think separating the queues solos will be the only one to be popping. While I have absolutely no proof of this whatsoever I can probably take this guess by looking at the queue syncs when it comes to frontlines. Can queue syncing currently survive without hopping into the regular lobby? If not, then you might want to find a better argument. I am taking into account that we're at the end of the expansion and that many is taking a break.

There's already an offer to split the premades from the soloists. Why are you offering to further punish those that decides to group on top of this offered change? You may as well just make it forced solos and call it a day. I shouldn't have to say this, but besides the dominant light party or parties that everyone runs into and possible knows by name there are other light parties that are out there for just experience points and queues once a day as well.

People are so mad about broken combos and a pvp design not suited for frontlines that they're ready to give the middlefinger to everybody that just like queuing with their friends in the process. It's sad.

Queueing with friends who just happened to pick drk etc to destroy entire parties each lb and make match miserable for 2 opposing teams.

No ty, give people SOLO queue, even if it will be longer.

I see what's going on and i can't help these dad gamers because i am playing solo, so nope, party should face against each other just like in any other normal pvp game for example dota
