no he is not. just was in a game where it was discussed in chat and invites given out to join. syncdropping should not be possible, defeats the whole purpose of a soloqueue.
That's not sync dropping. That's asking random people to team up.
You people act like it works. Tried it and if you got the same match, which was rare, you usually wound up on opposite sides. FTR, it wasn't about ROFLSTOMPING, it was about we have 6 brothers-in-arms on TS and we want to drop together, so we made two groups of 3 or a 4+2 and hoped for the best.
On rare occasions, we would see that we had landed with another 4 man that was in a different dropship (ie channel) so we would all join up under the senior person's lead.
Again, more about camaraderie and impromptu training that anything else.

It happens and its easy because i sat in on it myself. most often the drop goes more than well and most often the five man I was watching all ended up in lance order not on the other team.
Instead of alerting everyone to your inclination by shooting straight denials just instead discuss whether the practice if it exists or not should be banned along with those practicing it.
We went through the whole no one is synch dropping last year too. Multiple threads with the same guys coming back to say it never happens or is too difficult.
Of course when the Steiners started synch drop Fridays here on the forums that kind of made fools of the lot.
They never learn it seems.
Was explained to me a simple algorithm will see who and how many times they drop together or hit launch at the same time. Its actually very easy to do.. In solo que it becomes very easy
I call BS on you watching a group drop together. So was this a actual LAN party or you just happened to see some people drop together? Any screenshots with time stamps? No? Didn't think so.
