all the streamers need an area where they can synch drop with there followers and friends

[HammerMaster]

So they can stop polluting QP with their tired smugness and wreck regular QP'rs and stomp with impunity?
OR they could just do Group Queue where they are supposed to gather!

I mean streamers provide a service both to PGI and the community (as they call it)
and a lot of people/players like it (me included)

why not provide an area for them
times are changing sometimes you have to give the people what they want

IMHO

They provide a service by stomping pugs and causing toxic gameplay?
Are you serious right now?

[General Solo]

I wont say they're toxic but they are gaining an advantage, maybe circumventing COC with exploit type of deal

I don't really care, most are just ya average pilots but to encourage it officially, I think not.

If they big boi streamers they can do big boi group queue.

Or face the randomness of sync dropping

Without official help

It is against the COC. FOR SURE.
There was feedback from Tina a short time ago.

it's called group queue.
Then there is this thing called privat lobby.

I do not even remotely understand why you want groups in solo queue. Do you not compute what solo means?

They have it , it's called group queue.
Sync dropping in solo queue is considered an exploit.

[Davegt27]

the game is dying do you not compute that or do I have to post a bunch of screen shots showing low numbers

I am making a suggestion to PGI to do something about it

for the record I have never once synch dropped with anyone

No, you're making a suggestion that at the best is redundant and at the worst abusive.

Game is dying because of abuse like this.
COMPUTE THAT!

[Davegt27]

I make a suggestion to PGI and you come on my thread and attack me personally

and I am abusive

if you don't like what I have to say move on

[Gagis]

So you want a group queue?

We have one. You can find coordinated teamwork there. Its sort of nice.

You're not attacked personally.
Your suggestion however is really, really stupid.

"CAN YOU CREATE SYNCH DROP AREA FOR STREAMERS"
all the streamers need an area where they can synch drop with there followers and friends

You've been told that there already is "an area" where streamers can "sync drop" it is called the group queue, literally group up with whoever you want, regardless of tier. It is also the official way to "syncdrop" with green light from the COC.

If that is not enough, there is always the option for privat matches, who fights who? 12 atlases vs 12 kodiaks, why not? Spiders vs Cheetahs, go for it. It is absolute perfect for streamers.

Lastly, you appearently still haven't looked up what the "solo" in solo queue stands for. I'll give you a hand on that, free of charge.

SOLO
adjective [ before noun ], adverb UK ​ /ˈsəʊ.ləʊ/ US ​ /ˈsoʊ.loʊ/
​
alone; without other people:

Not to be rude or anything but the SOLO queue is for SOLO players and the GROUP queue is for GROUPS.
It's not that hard of a concept to understand.

No, you were told that your suggestion is abusive.

draiocht said:

Synchronized dropping is an attempted exploitation or manipulation of the matchmaking system, and is thus a violation of the Code of Conduct.

Is anything unclear in that statement?

Nope, we are not your yes-men. If you don't like what PGI has to say on the subject, move on.

No. I didn't attack YOU personally.
I'll give you that I attacked your idea.
I personally have been on the receiving end of some syncdrops by notable streamers and big name units.
It's pure BS.
Plain and simple.
It abuses the system.
It abuses the SOLO queue who QUEUED UP TO NOT HAVE TO TO BE STOMPED BY GROUPS.
Savvy?

I don't need any sort of approval from you to make suggestions
PGI is perfectly capable evaluating suggestions

I spent the last 4 months spending 4 or 5 hours a day watching all kinds of streamers (mostly MWO)
what you say about being on the receiving end of streamers is a fabrication

in fact PGI is probably laughing at this thread because they know trying to sink drop is like trying to hit a bullet with a bullet

sometimes I watch a streamer with my PC and with my tablet at the same time and they seldom sink up

coordination was a problem way back before voice coms
people on voice coms had an advantage over people that did not way back when
but not any more

a modification of the current group system can and should be looked at

Deliberately trying to abuse matchmaking while providing public video evidence would not go over well.
If you mean that they don't play group queue, GQ is rather more cutthroat than SQ and some of the streamers are mediocre players at best.

Experience tells me they still do.
