Good day to all of you, i hope you are all having a good time and are excited for the release of Patch 6.1

I had a brief look at the Pre-release patch notes and was struck by their decision of the queue restriction for Ranked Crystalline Conflict.
Specifically :
"Register solo via the Duty Finder. Results will influence your ranking in Crystalline Conflict."

I would really like for Square Enix to potentially understand that this might not be something everyone wants. A lot of us play FFXIV or even other games (PVP oriented ones in this case) with friends.
I've been loving to queue into Ranked modes with a friend of mine as it allowed us to comfortably communicate and the such and i really think that locking the queues to solo only will hurt the Ranked system altogether.

If anything, Square Enix could at least try to implement it alike other PVP based games, implementing either a two queue system : Solo Queue and Flex (any team matchup size ) or just allow for at least a Duo to be allowed as premade for it.

Climbing the ranks all by yourself isn't a fun experience for everyone, when most of FFXIV bases itself around overcoming challenges with friends.

I'd honestly say that ranked might be a big pass for me due to this and i really hope Square adresses this or at least confirms their stance on it.
