PGI, please integrate quick play and group play in a similar fashion to Faction Play. Allow a notice to appear that groups are trying to drop and how many spots are left to fill the queue.This way we can find a way for groups to fill out and get to playing. I want to keep playing MWO until they shudder and lock the doors, as this is STILL a very fun game. Pretty please?

No.

[Garth Marenghi]

Why not?

[FRAGTAST1C]

People have suggested PGI to allow people to select GQ and SQ, similar to selecting servers, so that a few slots in GQ can be filled with a small number of solos. Nothing's been done about this.

[Garth Marenghi]

So now I ask...

[Black Ivan]

With MWO being on minimal life support I say that won't happen.

PGI is on MW:% and MWO is left to root

[Garth Marenghi]

I am still asking PGI, they do see these forums...

[Aidan Crenshaw]

"See" and "have administral access to" are not the same thing...

[Ignatius Audene]

Pgi never touch the brown sea. If u are realy lucky u might get an answer in twitter, but dont expect something.

[Garth Marenghi]

Even a check box allowing groups to request QP people of any tier would help.

[GeminiWolf]

No, thank you. If I wanted to be 12 man Seal Clubbed I would play Faction Play or Group Play in the first place. Please quit requesting that PGI force most of the players to play a mode you want to play, when they clearly are not choosing that.

[Mystere]

It's a feature that has been requested for years. Why would PGI suddenly make such a change now?

Also, it's "shutter".

we either need to go 8v8 or we need to start merging modes.

I would say that an Annihilator's armor would last longer with only 8 focus fired attacks as opposed to 12. Would this make the heavily armored mechs OP and require an armor balance pass? Hmmmm something to think about

Game is almost dead I understand.We had to quit game early last night because we couldn't find a match.Saying this, I don't want pug Q players in my group Q games. No thanks. I would let the mode die before this happens.

For the same reasons every other single time this thread comes up...

Groups in SoloQ are extremely overpowered.

So - NO.


What needs to happen is an option to let SOLO into GroupQ. That is the only way it could work, been posted about many times. Nothing from PGI on it.

[Garth Marenghi]

Well I know there are still new players coming to MWO. In fact in the lowest tier I have met 4 in two days and others who are coming back from several years absence. This game is still being played daily and imo still has life. Nay say if you want but I am still asking for an option to opt in to a group for quick play.

The tier system currently keeps new players from seeing what MWO can be. The disparaging chasm of exposure from tier 5 and 1 is misleading and detrimental to new players. I play at both and I know. The low salt tier 5 players enjoy the game in a way tier 1 players have forgotten, again imo.

Nothing to say against this option. But it needs programmers work and will never happen because of this.
