There really isn't one, now that the shear mechanical errors are almost gone.
No, I'm not trolling.
Still here? Good.
I've seen people whining about banning squads from random matches. Non ironically. The hell. others make a better case in that you should need a squad to enter FW, I have no problems with that.
The problem we have with unbalanced games is not due to the game itself. Matchmaking on a plyer level works in, let's say DOTA 2, because everyone chooses the same queue. Every game is the same at start besides the players, and none are objectively better in any way save personal ability. In DUST, and indeed in most FPS, we upgrade over time as opposed to just getting better at the game. The problem is that we have the game set up like DOTA when it should be more like an MMO. There will always be gankers wandering the noob areas, but that is how people are. The problem with DUST is that everywhere is the noob area. We have but the one pond. Level 80's frequently end up squared off against level 20's. FW isn't different enough, nor does it provide good enough rewards to differentiate itself from standard play. PC takes forever to start and is done on a 'professional' level where matches are set up on a schedule instead of in real time. So where does this leave the entire playerbase, Recruit or Vet, to spend their time? Random Matches. We NEED a medium ground. Either PvE, revamped FW, or something else to hold player attention and make those who aren't new to the game start migrating there. There needs to be a new 'area' so to speak, a river to the ocean from our pond.
In short, I'm a medium level player. I have one PC area. Noone is attacking, and I have not the means to get together an attack. Even if I did, I'd have to wait hours to actually start an attack if I launch it now. There are no FW contracts open either, and even if there were what would I get from doing FW? So where do my squad and I go? |

We've been waiting for PvE for quite some time. Believe me when I say, the reason they haven't released it yet is because you'll hardly ever see anyone playing in these pvp battles. pvp will migrate strictly to pc and everyone will be playing pve. My thoughts... |

Even so, it would fix the 'matchmaking' woes. Plus if it happens as you say, CCP would have to look at the game modes themselves and see why it is noone's playing them as opposed to PvE. Either way would force revision and improve the overall game. |
