You can keep that mindset and continue your little crusade of on where
Premade stays.
Frontline encourages organized team play, and MMO is a social game
Lonewolf is stale for odd balls that seeking for challenge; the thrill seeker.
You are not a lone wolf, you are just someone got hurt by premade

Your dumb premades ruin everything stays till small pvp dev team get hands to improve matchmaking for everyone. Go write essay about "u just got hurt, u are not a lone wolf" on 4chan, i think there is literature forum for you.

Oh I'm definitely not trying to be polite. No need to lump me with the ones still trying to have a discussion with you.

As a follow up, this is why the "premades are bad" argument falls flat every time. Go to any queue sync where good players meet up, and the whole game changes.

Premade groups only dominate because the majority of Frontline is filled with roulette tourists who just aren't that good at the game.

Stop looking for someone else to blame.

It sounds like we need skill-based matchmaking for premades in Frontlines, then.

not my experience. of course there are quiet matches. but plenty too where there is chat around what objective, who to target/pinch. less on NA maybe. but not that much off OCE. i feel like a lot of people just sit back and dont say anything, cause they have that preconceived notion. obviously yea, if there is a cmdr, less so. especially if they are a decent one. but if you see something, say something - pinch opportunity, danger, target objective, whatever. dont wait for someone else to speak up. and your voice might be the one that sparks the alliance

Premades arent the problem. There are actually strategies to counter different styles of play.
The problem is players not bothering to try/learn, and/or sitting there and taking it for free without adjusting.
If I want to play with a few of my friends, that's ok.

It's clearly my own skill issue,not people stacking multiple groups in one team on top of meta classes that also play like rats if drk couldnt pull in a lot of people (they just go back and wait since there is 3rd team running around).

No, the problem is not that we were coordinated, but that the randoms were uncoordinated and easy to bait.

"randoms are uncoordinated" brother in frontlines you play against two teams and you have to do objectives besides just fighting people, which exactly you and other premades use in your advantage (premades of multiple groups dont forget). If your drk friendo fails pull you ALL fall behind not spending limitbreaks and just wait out, because your targets have to fight against not only you but also against other team.

Do you even like to play any game in a fair mode? People bullied you before in football so you aren't going to play it unless it's 10 vs 4 match?

Which people abusing matchmaking dont want. They want to grind pve achievements not have a fair game. Imagine all these trolls here go cry about hidden mmr and groups vs groups matchmaking (like in Dota 2). "CANT FARM PVP ACHIEVEMENTS YOSHIP REVERT BACK I DONT LIKE TO PLAY AGAINST 2 DRK SETUPS WITH MY POOR FRIENDS WHO ALSO ABUSE THAT".

I am sorry that I just joined the forum this patch and that's not good enough for you.

It DOES suck when multiple premades get put on the same alliance. Which is something that could use a balance.
But those players do not decide they get to all be on the same one. The game puts them together.

To frank rather be nice for a solo ques like in cc for FL and a que for people of 4 to be que in if people want to play with friends. Also think battle high should be gone with the amount of way to kill due to some job having a higher chance to kill now and more due to the role action. Also they are not fixing the crowed control problem since melee is broken with smite and swift role action and same with bloodbath.
