Yes, we should, but it's about a year too late to make that change now.

I think that if 12 man competitive teams are having trouble finding matches in the 12 man queue, that the matchmaker should take 12 random lonewolfs and feed them to the 12 man team.

Why frustrate 12 people, when you can frustrate 24 with a terrible match.

mmmm Love Bacon.... I'll take that bomb!

as for the other topic... as the game plays right now yes. However that may make interesting challenges when CW finally hits for filling out teams that need to be of specific factions. Where the concept of the Lone wolf is to fill in the faction gaps on each side of a match.

why stop there?
Every 4 man should be grouped together to form a 12 man and then throw pugs at em till the pugs stop playing.
what could go wrong?
and your stats!

Rather than a separate queue for groups, I think a "solo only" toggle would make more sense, leaving the mixed queue as the standard option. Perhaps with players still in the cadet phase defaulting to the "solo only" queue. Another possibility would be not counting the "solo only" queue toward CW.

Not everyone who runs solo is bothered by playing with/against groups.

Could you start an alternative thread with tofu instead of bacon, for vegetarians?

By the way, played a 4-man group of lights with ECM yesterday, for the first time in months. I've forgotten how easy it is to PUG stomp. People with their inflated KDR and W/L ratios can go suck lemons.

Racsism at its finest. I saved a screenshot of this thread. Same people trashing New players and solos on the other thread go right along with this. Explains a lot.

Yes, everyone thinks so for EVERY GAME EVER

EXCEPT

the people who want to stomp pugs.

It all comes down to money. They won't do it because they need fodder. Their business model is {Scrap} and it will ALWAYS be a thorn in the side of the player. The whole F2P thing is horrible in general and it leads right into things like pubstomping never ending.

At this point they've back themselves into a corner, UI 2.0 will either make or break this entire game forever.

Exactly

These guys were already trashing the Stop pug Stomp Thread. I already reported them. If it comes to the community on the forum- those guys and many other destructive person wont hesitate to talk for the hole community but they even dont accept other opinions. If a opinion is against theirs they rather trash the thread until its closed.

PGi make up your mind- get rid of those destructive ppl

Well in my case i only play solo if there arent any online in my list. I dont like pubbing. With ui2 searching and finding ppl will be even easier for groups as there will be a chat. So no worries about that

How? By not bowing to hyperbole and fallacious arguments based in a reality that does not exist on this planet? So actually using the same brain that sets us apart from animals is a bad thing, even though it`s the only reason any of us exist??

Let`s face it, more than half of what both sides are saying it complete ********, and you both think you smell like roses. Unqualified agreeance with either side is flat out stupid. Especially since every one of your aguments about speaking for the community, being disruptive, et. al. is a sword that you obviously still haven`t realized has 2 sharp edges and not one. Hypocrisy is not something I and most others consider a positive trait.

BTW, if anyone deserves to be sanctioned it`s you for this obvious and obviously intentional N+S violation. The only person skirting the rules here right now is in fact you. :)

Make up your mind. Those names are just trashing the thread without participating into the Op topic. They did the same with another thread just an hour ago.

Oh and i also reported you for insulting.
Reported ;)

Edit: Feel free to edit your post and make it more kindly- i already took a screen of it
