I'm unsure if UI 2.0 is bringing about weight balanced lobbies, but regardless in the meantime I would like to strongly suggest that 8-man Premades get a weight limit added for the maximum drop weight of all readied players.

Simply put, even worse than PUG games - way worse, in fact - every single 8 man is either running 6-7 assaults with 1-2 scouts with maybe a 3D in the mix replacing an assault; this effectively forces a situation where your only options are to have the whole team ton up and play a way they do not want to, or play with a severe handicap. Contrary to what some people believe, if your skill levels are in the same ballpark, running under tonned is a death sentence.

A flat cap is the least desirable solution but it would do tons to drastically improve non-league organized play. The situation is extremely dire at present.
