Premades shouldnt be able to queue into pugs

[TriksteR]

Premades should queue into PUGs but with reduced rewards (XP/ Wolf marks) something like, 2man -20%, 3man -30%, 4man -40% and so on

A good number of people get their enjoyment from queuing up with their buddies. Remember pairing up with a friend or two is still considered a premade. Full premades have been happening since the beginning of Secure Frontline, y'know. This isn't new stuff, it's just more noticeable now because of Adrenaline and landslide victories. I do agree with the "PS" though, back to party LB would be super.

Did someone just suggest that a party of 8 should get 80% less rewards? Whattttttt!!!??? Just go play a single player game. This is a MMORPG. You are off your rocker.

There seriously was a ton of people who transferred to the premades on flames (causing even worse q times) and followed them when they switched to adders due to q length. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and assume they had the same reasoning.

You know logic doesn't work here, what are you? Reasonable?

I am not sure we agree about premade. I consider 8 showing up from any server. Which usually means a coordinated effort to get into the same match. With an average of 30 matches a week and a bit over 700 matches I have never seen the amount of people from one server like Gilgamesh is fielding. Also out of the three teams the ability to get as many LB off in a small window implies a little more coordination then random server ques.

The whole flame thins is weird. For almost 3 months we have been winning way more then 50% which I have said is wrong. Now I see a whole bunch of jumpers. You may not believe me but actual premades were rare and mostly from Sargatanas. What we really had going was teams of all rank 40+. Regulars same people every match. A team familiarity.


All the win chasers are fools because there aren't premade teams getting them wins. All they have done is spread out the good players. You are right there are Flames going Adder but also to Maelstrom. They aren't chasing wins but ques.

Lately there's been alot of premade groups queuing frontlines, i've seen scores such as Team A - 130+ points, team B and C under 30, just getting farmed by coordinated groups of 24 players on voice chat, sleeping\rooting and limit breaking at the same time, etc.

Premade groups should only be able to queue into other premade groups, if there's 2+ groups of 8 players all from the same server, it should be considered a premade, and should only allow those parties to queue into other groups of 8 from the same server.

Not only do the PVP queues take 20+ minutes some days during normal play hours for most people in north america, but there's nothing more unsatisfying then just getting crushed by a group of organized players after spending that long in a queue.

Until they bring out ranked matches, there should be no distinction. The Crimson Slayers will continue to wreck the opposition! Till Sea Swallows All! ps- love the hat!
