Kinda sucks when you have four friends on line with you and someone has to be the odd man out. I think it'd be nice to raise the limit from four again.
I'm sure it does, I've been the one left out, in PvE raids as 'friends' had classes required and I didn't.
But supposing there was a group of thirteen friends ? to play devils advocate.
12 mans will be vastly superior to even a team of seven and a second of five matched up, unless ELO puts better smaller groups against the big single one, this method might even make it 'fair' but you just know that PGi won't develope a system that will make it balanced.
I just think what with private matches and this being projected, means this games on limited time, it needs to draw people in its needs a place for the casual player that wants to have fun blow things up and not have to commit to an hours play with a lance or company, teams play is vastly superior to singles but its the singles that make games healthy.
PGI have big idea's and for big idea's you need big populations, if they have the idea, or are being advised, that these changes will bring in more people and make the game more populated, well its wrong and will more likely have a negative effect on population (again)
I'm playing less with UI2 up all ready as before I could work in a window, chat with people not involed or liking the game read, news, not because I dislike it, I don't think its as good as ui 1.5 but the reason is its full screen and i'm shut off from anything else while messing with mechs, and looking here.
I might be logged on to MWO play 4 games an hour while looking at other things, now if I might not have x amount of time I don't bother any more, cutting down my hours here means I have to evaluate if any more premium time is worth it, even if this new method does actually mean I play more games an hour, its whats percieved.
Getting stomped by 12 mans being introduced back into the pug mix, which can only logically be happening because the populations so weak, there are not enough 12 mans, isn't a feature that's going to make me want to bother with MWO.
But once PGi get an idea, and the inner circle tell them is good, no amount of telling them other wise works..
PGi you need new advisors very quickly, as hard as it is, you'll get better results listening to the 'fat mouths that call you, than people that suck up and say that's perfect, human nature though means the kiss butts will all ways win through, rebel against human nature before its to late
