some feedback from myself

Please consider 48 man FL

FL will struggle to pop during off peak hours and will eventually struggle to pop during peak hours, the upcoming new mode will give some incentive to play but it wont last long when everyone gets their reward and jumps (unless the mode itself is quite fun) i understand 24 man was to reduce the impact premades had on games but with 48 man games that impact will have a lesser effect.

Reconsider the melee/tank damage buff

This is a given, while it is great to play a tank or melee at the moment because of the damage output, trying to heal through this is very tough and ranged DPS get melted within seconds. i'd say keep the defence buff for sure, but consider the damage buff they receive and how effective it is under battle high effects.

Consider forced freelancing

After the announcement of 8man parties getting removed people have taken it upon themselves to organise a mass solo queue into one Grand company which can form more than an 8man premade, i agree with people that say we should get to play with our friends. However this will cause people to constantly jump GC's in the future and might have a negative effect on the queue, along side a 72man only option, the future of FL will come to a halt.
