Now your FW Event makes sense. You want many people to test that thing, don't you? I'm fine with that. |

One of the example squad names says > 5 mil SP but I don't see any way to filter potential squad members.
This is also a case where having a standings system would be nice.
Otherwise, looks like a great start. |

Our goal with this was to not add filter options directly into the squad adverts as we could probably come up with hundreds of them. Instead we gave as much space as possible for squad names so that players can police themselves and find different ways of working with this. The whole sandbox and offering tools for players to work with thing.
That is not to say we will never add filtering options, possibly in the future if it is required, but not at this time. Game Designer // Team True Grit http://twitter.com/regnerba |

Simple is better than complex when adding something new. My vote is for standings but I've been asking for those since the beginning. |

I applaud progress. But this seems to be a somewhat underwhelming feature for established units who have no problem finding Squads....only trouble syncing the collective efforts of those Squads into the same battle...and I am speaking specifically about Faction Warfare.
That needs to be the next step up the Squad Chain. Either full 16-player Squads or the ability to access the Team menu prior to deployment and populate it so all players enter the match together. |

Filters would be very helpful, must like how fleet finder in Eve allows filters. Please implement this as well! |

Underwhelming for established Units. Yes. But it makes life a whole lot easier for new players and people who ust want to play casually every now and then. |

The whole sandbox and offering tools for players to work with thing. That is not to say we will never add filtering options, possibly in the future if it is required, but not at this time. Can we get another option, under the Availability, that lets us set if we want autojoin on or not? So if I, as squad leader, put out a Public squad invite saying "5+ mil SP" and a new player clicks it I see an alert that says "Sir Snuffington wants to join your squad" and I can click that, see their stats and hit accept / reject?
I know this will cause some problems of people just rejecting people who don't meet their strict requirements. But rejection will happen regardless. It also saves a step of that new player joining a squad labeled "5+ mil SP" and then being kicked by the squad leader. This helps ensure that the squad leader doesn't have to play whack a mole by kicking people who don't fit the criteria out to make space.

There are also a new tutorial system being released for new players which is really the bread and butter of 1.5 since vehicles were pushed back to 1.6. |

So... no joining a squad already deployed? As a squad leader or member I'm stuck waiting around in CQ for people to join the thing, which is a majority of the pain.
That being said, I have been using the EVE-side fleet finder every single day since it was introduced. When guys type "x" in Alliance I can smugly ignore them. Now I can do the same with LFS. |

Quote:Disruption game play for adhoc groups of players to participate more in the meta game
This is something I am looking forwards to. Not only because i enjoy being disruptive But more participation in the meta game is a direction that needs more support. Even though it sounds like this is down the road. |
