Something really needs to be done about squads in pub matches. Yes this is a team-based game, I get it, but you know even if I am playing solo I still try to play as a team-player. Most others do as well from what I have noticed. But as soon as a 6 (or less) organized squad enters the other team, all hell breaks loose and a once balanced match turns into a mass suicide mission.
Players who use the defense that this is a team-based game, should be thrilled at the aspect of squad-free modes, which means if they decide to squad-up they will only face other organized squads of equal skill. But realistically they just want easy kills, so they try to keep it as it is now.
OB's also add insult to injury in the case of squads vs no squads, IMO the requirement for OB's need to increase dramatically, especially since the WP requirement hasn't changed from the 4-player squads of Chromosome to the now 6-player squads. I think the majority of my deaths tonight came from being OB'ed just because I happened to be near the blob of blues when one went off. Or even worse is spawning at the default spawn only to get rained on by a OP OB strike mere seconds after spawning.
The most fun and balanced matches come from 100% random vs 100% random, or squads vs squads (somewhat equal in skill), but putting squads of organized players with mics into matches vs mostly randoms greatly unbalances matches.
The new MM has been used and tested out, which still equates in squad domination. So can we PLEASE consider squad-free modes CCP? no one plays pubs anymore with 3sec quetime and 1min lobbies for FW, OP is obviously a delusional oompa loompa |

They always have been and always will be, thats the idea! If an organised squad tears you a new one then make your own squad to counter it. However, I do sympathise a little, it would be nice if there were game modes for running solo, as well as game modes for small squads as well as FULL TEAMS like corp battles again etc. Hell PC with 6 man squads too. We'll call it death bowl and itll just be a copy of all the original unreal tournament maps, EXACTLY the same, would be ******* awesome and have the same music as well, i see no problem with this as we're already on the unreal engine make it a tournament system, and the top matches are streamed from your quarters, like how you can watch other peoples matches in league of legends |
