As a long time supporter I'm going to just cut my losses.

Very sad that PGI has done nothing to address the premade vs pug issue. Organized teams should never be fighting unorganized teams.

If you think you should.... take a look at the 30 min queue to do CW.

Yeah.. wonderful.

Anyways I'm off.

I'm sorry to hear that!

In my experience cw hasn't been that unbalanced between players but the maps need a bit of work!

You should come back after PGI updates the ui so you can see what groups are queuing up the different attacks. It is a lot more fun when you are dropping with at least a 4 - 6 man premade.

Or at least come back when they add / modify the cw maps.

i think....
maybe you should read about the queues before you ASSUME it has to do with population issues
Then read the record breaking numbers PGI experienced
Then drop solo queue if you don't like playing against groups

Other than that
Can I has your stuff?

CW is hardcore mode. Put your bigboy pants on or stay in the soloque.

Go into the primarily group queue as a solo player; complains about groups.

Ah yes

Not so long ago Sandpit donned the white tabard for the first time

Now the white plumed helmet and flowing white cape

Watching this transformation from the start has been a beautiful thing


:D :D

Just me or do the 12man teams only play on planets where they're on the defense?

As a pug I've played around 8 cw games would of played more but the shortest wait time I have had. Is over 15 mins Just to get the team never mind waiting for the other team and getting in the game, 1 of these games was on the defence and I tend to chose defend as those are the planets I end up on. Defence certainly appears to be dominated by the already formed grouped. Compounding the ROFLMFAOpugstomp more IMHO

Bye?

Been hearing the same melodramatic declarations of PGI's impending doom for near to 3 years now.

Oddly they appear to be doing better than ever, and cranking out product faster...which cost more money to do.....


Now what WOULD be truly astounding is if all the "farewell cruel world" drama llamas with their exit loudly stage center announcements...would actually stay gone.

But we all know that ain't going to happen. Because they are too desperate for attention.

40 plus matches. 4 in 12 mans, the rest as a PUG or in small 3-6 man groups. Have won 75% of them, too.

Sad you truly have no idea if the game is doing poorly or well.... but facts would only diminish your "argument".

I guess the OP doesn't count the fact that PGI created the solo queue a couple months ago just for people like him.

Now if he is talking about CW - which is still pretty Beta and geared toward groups, personally don't have issues dropping solo in the CW queue when I don't have team mates on but it's geared toward groups by design. What part of creating groups and factions for CW did he not understand, it was never really intended for solo players.

Always forced to wait at least 15 to 30 minutes, sometimes I had to leave queue and requeue. I don't know why I always get attack on a defending planet. My nerves are in the verge of rage quit. Might be better to cool off and stop playing for a while, and wait for further improvement. In the meantime my other game has a big patch and I bought a bundle with 2 weeks of premium time.

This is the most fun I've had in YEARS with this game.
CW is awesome.

While I don't like getting creamed by premades either, I certainly wouldn't like for MWO to go down.
You know what I do?

I play the three other game modes.

You know to be fair, why should CW be considered "HC group mode" at all?

There are many solo players who want to play and enjoy this mode and currently we can't, in pretty much any way shape or form.

Just saying.
