To all the flames on primal datacenter...

At least your queues are fast enough to allow you to frontline as much in one day as alot of people on Maelstrom do in one week. I can't even imagine being able to get into 21 matches in a day as Maelstrom.

trust i switch back due to the long ques of mael... but the faster ques of loss i think i prefer not to....

Queue times are only going to get worse after patch

Mother of god. Adders you are so bad. Dear YoshiP, please bless me with good RNG so I can get these last 13 wins and be done of the worst GC please, please. Also will you remove Adders from the lore? Thanks.

Edit: Last match, Flames sat back and didn't take any nodes, didn't fight mael, just spread out in beach area to fight adders if they spread that way, and then zerged whatever node Adders had. What have adders possibly done to you? We've been losing.

You lose all the time in adders. If anyone says they win a lot, they're lying or in a premade that won't let anyone else in and thus are screwing over the overall Adder player base. I know for a fact really early morning my time (around 3-4am Central Time), a premade adder group goes in because it's 8v8v8 time usually due to low enrollment in the DF for Seize. The average wait says 14-20 mins, but it will be an hour and no pop. But I am told via LS in contact with other server groups they're in Seize against Adders. And same people say it's a pre-made. So' that's kind of BS SE that I get screwed out of getting into Seize due to something like that, when removing the GC restriction would alleviate that issue. And yes, the GC restriction needs to go. If it's a "lore' reason, then PVP being part of the "lore" is a joke. Come on.

Any way, 5-19-18 this week. Worst record I've ever seen. Getting 100 wins with Adders on Primal is harder than A3S, no lie. And breaks your spirit even harder than A3S.

It will balance itself out. Alot of inept players have already joined Maelstrom as well as the losers who declare the game over when the leading team only has 400 points. I am pretty sure alot of these guys are ex-flames but wouldn't surprise me if we got a bunch of the adder rejects now too.

You can keep em. It was awful trying to fight the enemy while fighting your own team who are convinced it's a loss as soon as they get shoved off of one node. We still have a few of them, but it's not as bad these days. I used to see 2 or 3 of them every. single. match. Worst PvP matches you can possibly have are the ones where your own team fights against you.

Flames & Adders: please stop tunnel visioning each other OVER and OVER and OVER and OVER. PvP is both boring and meaningless if you're not playing to win.

Is 3 wins in a week too much to ask for? Maelstrom has been pretty terrible this week. I just want the reward from the challenge log for 3 wins. Not a single win yet this week. Every queue takes 45 minutes or more. Im 0 for 1st, 5 for 2nd, and 4 for 3rd place. Maelstrom on primal has dropped pretty far.

It depends likely on when you queue since the better players tend to queue at prime time or later on in the night. I queue at around 10 pm est to 2 am and have a record currently of 13-9-11 (very mediocre to be sure but still competitive especially since all those queues are solo). The queues however have gone up tremendously yes. I used to be ok with our 30 min queues but this week the queues have routinely gone over an hr. The gc atm is heavily overpopulated, likely because of how much adders have fallen, and now I see so many names Ive never seen before in matches as opposed to before when I could recognize alot of the names in the alliances. Bad enough that pvp atm is slow because of the patch and the release of games like Fallout 4 this overpopulation just exacerbates the problem.

On the flip side, Flames have been doing amazing these two weeks.

Flames have been good for a while now (way longer than 2 weeks), they just wanted people to think they suck so that all the bad players come to Maelstrom instead lol.
