just so everyone knows- it was siege alone, nothing but siege, for about 8hours last night Oceanic and we got ZERO games.

throw out matchmaker, there are only enough people online twice a week for it to matter, and perhaps just delete incursion from the invasion roster as you aren't going to fix it.

??? did you mean 8 hrs of siege or incursion and 0 games? Also, I don't know about Oceanic time pop, usually EU and NA prime time has dozens of games.

Every time I went to check out the queues last night it was 1 and 4, or 2 and 3, so yeah, where were all you siege loving arseclowns when there was siege to be played?

In bed or going to work. That was like 4am EST clownsauce.

And if PGI is not willing to change Incursion at all? (which is the point we're at)

il let you have that one. between pgi fixing nay even recognizing the problem's existence, a snail could paint my house blue in less time (that involves evolving the intelligence necessary to apply paint). i do totally miss playing siege, but with so little meat on the rotting corpse that is mwo, id hate to start throwing away bones.

So why would you want to remove one game mode that you can't possibly win at 24/7? Don't you want any competition? Think about it. Not everyone puts together a top tier group every time you log in. Competition is what somewhat keeps this game moving. Fun factor as well. As few of the players that are left. Don't you want someone to shoot at? Be happy people log in and still play here and there. Try to be positive that we can still log in this damn thing for the time being.

You really think top level teams can't objective rush win and thats why they don't like Incursion?

its a low hanging fruit strategy for securing victory. it was used a lot mostly when capping planets was still a thing. when you were on a time crunch you would want to run as many games as possible durring a phase, so winning as quickly as possible was the name of the game. it was also used by a number of low skill units to secure wins when faced with the unending seal horde since they couldn't beat them any other way (for example flipper to flipper combat). these days its mostly the phocidaphobic units that do rushes.

FP population is even lower than usual at the moment because many foiks are trying to quickly grind loot bags.

You can get 3 bags in QP in the time it takes to earn one in FP.

It would have been great if PGI had made each FP match worth 3 Loot bags. IIRC they did that once before, several years ago.

Actually, FP population in NA prime has been pretty legit since they let unit members side switch how they please.

[VigorousApathy]

Maybe, but the late night (north american late night) squads have been practically nonexistent for the last week.

Well, there's always a big exodus anytime a big stompy crew gets on. Population isn't big enough for any matchmaker to be worth it let alone one that is possibly based on tier.

Remove quickplay maps altogether and go back to the golden times.

Or at least remove conquest. That mode is utter garbage to play.

[Dee Eight]

I haven't played since they eliminated the seperate scouting queue... do the matches still have those features in function ?

[Davegt27]

nope

Now if only there was a way to let smaller teams drop so even if there are not a lot of players on, we could still have some battles and do some missions......
Who knows..... 4v4 Incursion might just be the bees knees.
