Dear community manager,
The game is broken when you can‘t play with one friend together in quick play!
I‘m so long with this game, but there is NO reason, why it‘s impossible to get a match with a friend.
If I want to play a single player game, it‘s not this game.

Sorry, but I have a ton of appreciation for your work here, but this needs to be fixed or at least a roadmap communicated.

Best

Very frustrating that this has been unsolved for so long. Playing with friends is a basic expected feature of a multiplayer game, and one of the best ways to get new players into a game this complex.

We do not disagree!!!.. Issue is how PGI originally brought it together, there were tons of issues with groups and solo pugs.

• 8vs8
  
• No ingame VOIP until 2015.. AFTER CW (aka FP went live........(THIS IS A BIG ONE, even though it is lackluster and not used as often as it should be now in the Solo queue) thus no real instant, in-game communication.
  
• Originally there was no ability to even form groups
  
• Then when groups could be formed up for drops (not teams/units) it was both solo and group and no actual GROUP queue, never mind no Faction Play (originally called CW or Community Warfare), and groups generally were formed up on external Teamspeak
  
• Not even a command wheel, never mind the actual chat system has barely changed since inception....
  
• NOR could players tell who was grouped up or not...

It was a mess, until group queue went live but then it was only full teams, 8vs8 then 12vs12, iirc but then groups were completely removed from the "Solo" queue.
