Has anyone dropped in an 8-man premade yet? Can you?

We should establish this before talking about Phase 2's existance/non-existance.

Well, if you can drop in an 8-man premade, then I will report every thread that says "Phase tweo is missing" for deletion.

If you cannot, then I will report every thread for "Merge" and make sure they all get to the same place.

Phase 1: November 6th

Pre-made groups will be limited to a max of 4 players when playing in random public forums. This is a quick fix to ease the PUG vs PRE issues. We do not consider this a final, nor complete fix to matchmaking.

Phase 2: December 4th (Delayed due to testing)

Pre-Made groups will be able to match against other pre-made groups.
Min group size: 8 players - Updated
Max group size: 8 players
Class Matching: No
Phase 3: December TBD

You have too much free time.

Because dropping something before internal testing could result in pitchforks and torches.

Also, preparing my bunker for when/if someone confirms it's still 4 man only.

EDIT: Due to developments that occurred while typing... i'll be in my bunker. AoC out!.

It's not his fault that patches are not deployed instantly and instantly transferred to our machines. What else is he gonna do with his time? Write a meme?

Or just let the mods do their jobs and not be such a busybody?

8 man vs 4 man is a simple logic circuit 8man? Yes _Yes, or no_no...

it is the same code with different parameters

This has to be a typo, because this is absolutely f*ing stupid.

Delay the matchmaking fine.
Test it fine.
Match Pre mades vs Pre mades entirely - Fantastic Idea totally applaud it.

But 8 Man minimum? that is stupid taken down to new levels.

Allow groups to play as 2,4,6,8 man groups if you cant be bothered to code a proper matchmaker.

Seriously. We don't need 8 players to roll an 8 man premade.
