I understand the idea of "Faction Play" being for serious players. However I think that scout mode should be for pugs. When I play a scout mission and I see a major team vs pugs... I think its a little unfair at the least.
If you want Invasion mode to be serious... fine. But don't limit people who just want some fun to only quickdrops.
No you do not understand...not one little thingy.
Faction play was never intended to be played by singleplayers.
Actually there shouldn't even be any groups below 4 players.
Factionplay was made for Units and dedicated highend Groups to play each other.
For this there where certain rewards in FP...like mechbays...mc and c-bills.
This made the ppl unable or unwanting to sozialize and get a group angry.
They jammered and whined and clawed at pgi 'till they alowed micro... "groups"... and singleplayers to fill up groups for FP.
Naturely the larger units and groups playing together on a regular basis where still considderably better and the "I want something for nothing" faction still howled to high heaven because they where naturely completely unable to acheave any of the rewards in short order or at all.
FP's development was stalled somewhat out of this reason...instead scouting was introduced as means to drop for smal groups and get some faction or merc points.
And now someone is jammering to ban those from the gamemode who are the very reason for its existance.
Well....if you want to play SOLO PUG go play the effin SOLO PUG only QUEUE that was introduced only for SOLO PUGS.
