I want to PVP, I haven't in this game yet. But with all the bad publicity it gets with threads like this and all the talk about bots and win trading, monstrous queues and yada yada yada, I haven't bothered with it yet.

They could likely get more ppl to play it if they made the current players more happy and had better word of mouth.

It isn't as hard or competitive as you'd think in solo que if you just learn what the meta is and how to react in certain situations.

Bots don't exist in feast, only FLs

Wintrading is not as rampant as reddit makes it out to be but on chaos it's noticeable 2 times a week if I que 24/7, less so this season (?).

But, GMs do not do a good job of punishing boosters pilots or any RMT activity at all. - across all aspects of the game. It took over 5 seasons for one longterm HW wintrader to get his punishment after many people abused the report system and spam reported
Again, it was the same for last season, with the exception that this person made it top 10 before he had any action taken against 2 months of reports.
Btw, The first guy didn't have his rewards stripped and given to another player despite his rampant abuse.

Honestly? No matter the problems surrounding the design of pvp and how anti-competitive it is (server ticks and latency, the mmr system, allowing smurfs) you are right, no matter what map, amount of buttons or design they go with, it won't matter because for whatever reason, under-budget, understaffed, under-caring they're not GMing, a bigger playerbase would probably make this even harder.

And que wise, on Chaos, melee after 6pm is less than ten minutes, as is healer. Range you're looking at anything longer than 20 mins all through the day, maybe longer than 10 on tank
