The group queue tonnage adjustment isn't the right solution. I thought I'd said that, but if not I'm saying it plain and clear here - this isn't what was needed. The adjustments are minute for the most part, and tonnage shouldn't be a balancing factor for this issue in any case.

But unlike what all the BGSC players in here are saying, clearly Piranha believes there's some issue in need of a solution. All y'all saying 'there's no trouble here at all, suck it up and die for us' are not correct according to the developer managing the game.

There's an issue here that is in need of a solution, and Piranha's clearly going to try and solve it one way or another. We can keep on with crappy-ash tonnage-based solutions forcing duos into assaults and BGSC farmers into mediums regardless of what either of those actually wants to play...or we can try and see if there's a more workable solution, hn?

You mean they never (or once and only once) get 1 kill and survive the match (this would be a KDR of infinite)? I find that hard to believe.



Yeah same, although I can't stand leveling brawlers in the solo queue. I have patience issues that I need to work out.

I think he actually believes that the kdr indicates that these guys get nine kills per match...

Please limit the maximum number of people you can bring into a match to 1 full Lance. This is really frustrating for new players and for me as a returning player to see this is STILL happening. Let these try hard Clans go play a Faction match if they want to play with 12 people.

If many of us are ever forced to play with 8 potatoes because we can't bring our own group to the GROUP queue, it will probably just see us leave the game.

It's the Group queue for a reason.

To be fair, sometimes when you are that 4-man, the other 8 can be mix of grouped up taters... which is a common occurrence these days.

The bar gets set lower by the day honestly.

Sadly, Russ said recently that there's no chance of 2-mans going into group queue. So we're boned. Only option they're going to go with now is slaughtering tonnage values for groups, which I really don't think is a good idea.

If match making was tighter, the game's population wasn't so willfully bad and group queue was changed back to 8v8 instead of 12v12 I'd be OK with limiting to 1 premade lance per side.


As it stands now, it's just awful. If you don't at least bring 4, you are almost guaranteed to have to carry 8 absolute potatoes - if you bring 6 yo 8 you can actually enjoy the game (unless you end up stomping potatoes all night, which usually sees my team start to get bored and log off).

That's exactly why I avoid the solo queue these days, because its an absolutely awful experience.

This describes the solo queue best IMO:
