What's going on Frontlines?

[Hik3n]

I cannot agree more, Frontline roulette needs to be solo queue only

And even if it's solo you will get the same experience, this is not happening because someone plays in a party or not, is just the trash balance... and someone already listed almost all the things up there... People really want to transform this game in a single player game... the moment they make Frontline only solo will be the moment i never again enter in PVP, even though i play solo most of the time... If people want to play solo, they can go and play single player games, i don't care, even CC not having an option to makes teams is dumb, now people even want Frontline to be solo... yeah, no, the moment it happens will be probably the moment i give up on this game and delete it after 10 years, this mentality of making everything solo in an MMO destroys this game... and they do just that... you can literally play almost 90% of this game in solo already. If i want an RPG... i go and play an RPG.

I don't understand this argument. The "MMO" part of frontlines is playing with 71 other people, surely? Equally, it's apparent from this and a couple of other threads that there are those that enjoy queuing with friends. But there's simply no getting around the fact that a 4-person premade confers a sizeable advantage on the 4 individuals in it. Consequently, this extra "fun" such premades get is at the expense of making the experience less fun for others, to the point where I fear it will drive away new players and damage FL. So it would appear that to keep everyone happy we need two queue modes. Incidentally, Josh Strife Hayes is one MMO luminary who argues convincingly that solo players are the lifeblood of MMOs.
