For When CC Eventually Has Party Queuing

[waterboytkd]

I love CC, and can't wait to queue up with my friends. But, I think there needs to be a thing done first, to ensure that 5-stacks aren't the most abusive/oppressive thing ever. This is how Heroes of the Storm (a MOBA from Blizzard) does it:

First, everyone has a hidden MMR (match-making rating) associated with their account. This is technically separate from Rank, as there are de-rank protections in the seasonal rank.

Second, when forming a match, keeping MMRs close is the priority.

Third, when parties are forming, when there is a significant MMR difference within the party, the lowest MMR in the party is disregarded for the purposes of MMR matching. So if someone who has a massive MMR is partying up with newbies or smurf accounts that have tanked their MMR, it won't result in them getting put in middling MMR brackets. This also applies to 4- and 5-man parties, regardless of MMR difference--the lowest 1-2 MMRs in the party are simply disregarded.

This helps massively with 5-stacks trying to farm or cheese the matchmaking system, and also ensures that 5-stacks are going up against appropriate competition.

All I know is that premade groups right now are a massive problem.

Even if I can just go in with a single person I can rely on not to kamikaze I'd be happy.

I know it would make some mad but if you queue as a 5 stack, you should only face 5 stacks and if the game can't find one, just keep you in queue until one queues. Price for having coordination in a "quick chat" type of gameplay.

Party/Group queue won`t come. Even if so they will disappear as fast as it was with feast.

As a solo player, even I see this game solo becoming more and more solo lmfao.
