Alliance que/partial alliance que

[Atreus]

I'm actually not really for or against it. I'm all for the challenge of facing multiple premades, it's just the queues I'm concerned about.

You're right, I'm not saying they are. Most premades are just pugs that are already friends. The illustration you're giving is kind of what I mean though. Other people are queuing in too trying to get a match. Most of that separation with your alliance is because those other guys were queued in first. If it just kept giving your alliance matches because you're all ready to go, then those other guys never get a match. Conversely, if the other guys queue up first, it may keep trying to fill their alliance and neither one of you will get a match.

RE:Note: Nah it's really not uncommon on our datacenter. Momo here is on my team of all 45's and we know of a few premades on other GC's that are frequent fliers as well.

I agree, this goes back to my thread i started about changing how the que system works. There needs to be a battle board you can walk up to and pick what match you want to join. The randomness and automation is fantastic for PVE content but its really not the best for PVP.

Got me there. I wouldn't mind that at all.

The problem is: Square thinks pvp needs to be 100% fair, which it doesnt, it just needs to be balanced. Premades are a thing, they happen, its not such a big deal. Its not impossible to beat a premade so I dont see the problem.

Its not square that thinks that. Its the players lol. Have you read these forums? These people cry about everything if they can't hang.

Like I said. I don't think it's a fairness issue. It's more than likely a queuing issue.

True. I just recently started playing again so I wasnt here for all the raging but I can imagine.

Separate it like wolves den, either premade or solo queue, allowing premades into pug parties is idiotic. But then I doubt most will join premades, there are very very few players out there that want to fight, most of these premades just want easy cheap wins for glamour.

Long as they bring in 8-man Wolves' Den soon, they can do whatever they want with Frontline!
