More and earlier chatter than this post - http://mwomercs.com/...class-by-lance/

So I noticed over the course of a few games that the weight classes are being grouped (at least on the pug/solo side of things.) since the last hotfix. Not completely sure if this a feature or not. Might have missed something. (?)

But, I think I like it? Seemed like a reasonable scenario to work with anyway.

At least it seemed like lances were forming up better. Still doesn't do much for the random suicidal pilot, but meh.. was kind of nice having all the whales in one spot. And it kinda seemed like the Assaults/Heavies were starting mid position? Kinda also makes sense.

Anyway, curious and throwing it out here. Seemed many people didn't notice it this evening. Somebody educate me.

*grammatical*

I wonder if it's a holdover from the previous "fix" to the matchmaker that they had to reverse.

I have no idea how they recoded the matchmaker for the whole "mode vote" thing, but it would seem to me that parameter would be one of the first it has to deal with....then the weight class....then the whole Elo thing.

Perhaps when they reverted the matchmaker, all they did was change the line of code for the "mode vote" to disable it but somehow managed to break code below that. Seems to be PGI's modus operandi, y'know.
