You've successfully ruined the only good thing about the MM and PSR system. Now I get to bask in the glory of PSR Hell. ggclose PGI.



So far NOTHING but hack meta L33T tryhards tonight.

I don't think they have made that change yet.

Only in the group queue? Eh at least the pugs will be safe.

If you want to control the conditions of the enemy you face, perhaps a public queue isn't the place. >_>

Ar least group queue wasnt a total scatological convention already..... Oh wait.

[Nightmare1]

How does this change the group queue? My understanding was that it took the average PSR of your group and used that to match you with other groups. I'm already interacting with people who are below my PSR as well as above my PSR by forming groups and dropping with them. Where's the change?

[Sjorpha]

It's a simple problem of too many buckets, the group queue has much less players than solo so it stands to reason that there are limits where you have to ease up the matchmaking to avoid unsustainable wait times.

As far as I'm concerned they should remove game mode choice in favour of better matchmaking.

You can't have the cake and eat it, no MM system can avoid the tradeoff between player choice and good matching if there aren't enough players. I prefer good matching over choice myself.

I don't mind waiting longer for a pug match if its going to be a good match.... IMHO they should let group queue drop with 8 on each side if it takes too long to find a match.

And yet I dropped against a 10 man of -MS- in solo lineup.

[Kjudoon]

Nightmare... It means that the group queue's main flaw is about to get even worse. And there are people desiring to force everyone into the group queue running around here.

No way i am touching that trainwreck!

[Champion of Khorne Lord of Blood]

Oddly enough I get faster times in the group queue than the solo queue. Usually I'll drop with as a 4 man team with a few of my friends. A little focus fire does wonders.

[Kjudoon]

Graugger at least those players have their psr calculated individually in the solo queue... And if the tiers were locked they all should have been at least in the same tier and balanced regardless of ghe sync drop.

That is still better than the group queue.

I'd rather take the choice of game mode and just match against ANY players. I'd rather have random stomps/rolls/close games and feel more like im piloting a mech into a battlefield against an opponent who may or may not be better skilled than me, or even closely skilled.

If I am a T3 player, I will still be matched with all tiers.

Ouch that looks bad. Was the loss due to player skill gap though, or was it simply tonnage/tech difference? What units were you fighting?
