Outside of PC, which is a hilariously bad and broken game mode, it's the only way to practice working as a team with your team.
This whole QQ thread is basically the same as calling people out for joining a squad of people they know instead of going into battles solo. Not even close to the same thing. Lets say the average squad you join on the MCC has that average meta level of 4. And those stacked teams have a meta level of 7. Still not going to be a legitimate fight as their gear is going to be that much better. The only defense against another pro fitted squad is another pro fitted squad. That is the only way all relevant factors of gear are eliminated and it comes down to skill of the players involved. Which is why the q-synch to begin with. Their gear is their compensation for bad play. They win through that difference. I don't advocate tiericide. But a match making system that looks at meta level of all involved.
How do you determine the meta level of a person if they have a ton of proto fiys, but run the one standard fit mainly?
Or the guy with a ton of standard and militia fits but primarily runs their one proto fit?
It's a good idea, but it would have a hard time telling if somebody was cheating the system to stomp in lower meta level matches.

It's a good idea, but it would have a hard time telling if somebody was cheating the system to stomp in lower meta level matches. First thought would be you select what suits you take into battle. So while you may have a lot of fittings you can't take them all which makes sense. If you include a pro suit in the list you won't receive anything less than an adv meta game. So if you chose militia/std gear then you would get those matches with the max meta of 3, etc etc.
Hmm.
I really like that idea.
Go make a full-blown thread man. That thought needs attention.

It's quite interesting that the new QQ topic of the month, pre 1.8, is teamwork is OP. It's truly baffling that it has come down to this. With some things, I can understand, it's harsh. But to outright complain about enemies who have friends joining them in their efforts is just downright detestable. Sometimes you gotta clutch your peanuts and go for broke, you know?
Then you say the practice is pathetic...lol!
I hope folks that have these type of complaints don't go anywhere near PC when that gets fixed. Can you imagine the threads then?
PC has something that is worth fighting a battle with the best of what you have.
Q-syncing is pubs is literally just to stomp. Really. I have yet to see a q-synced pub match be anything otherwise.
And for what? Nothing.
If they did it in FW, then cool.
PC doesn't do q-syncing, you just join a match with your squad.
But I seriously doubt that you need 12 guys doing "teamwork" to win a pub. You hardly need 6 guys of "teamwork" to win a pub.
And if you happen to want to go full teams fighting with your corp, then just lock some poor fools district up in PC, or go into FW.
But just when its being done in pubs more then anything else, its just stupid, a broken mechanic used to amplify a broken mechanic.

Honest, real, heart-felt truth?
Q-syncing is breaking the games mechanics. Just like Modded Controllers and the old Melee Glitch.
Is it done for a good reason? Yes. But its still breaking the game nonetheless.
