Forlorn Destrier 2588	Posted - 2014.07.01 11:53:00 - [1] - Quote CCP Rattattattattti, in the past, randoms used to join squads in the war barge, before a match began. This no longer happens - instead the time in the war room is so short many of us never see it, and hence never squad with randoms. Can this be adjusted? (and yes the squad finder is great - but shouldn't we be able to join a squad for that one match only? once a match starts, no one joins squads after all) I am the Forgotten Warhorse, the Lord of Lightning
Forlorn Destrier 2593	Posted - 2014.07.01 13:29:00 - [2] - Quote Agreed - seeing who the opponent is helps to plan, as does being able to talk to your squad mates as well. Seeing map would be great as well. Oh and LET THE HUMPING RESUME! I am the Forgotten Warhorse, the Lord of Lightning
Forlorn Destrier 2597	Posted - 2014.07.01 15:03:00 - [3] - Quote Hey - I like the talk - can we keep on topic and not be derailed to things like the Baloc so we can maybe get Dev attention to the thread? I am the Forgotten Warhorse, the Lord of Lightning

Also I would say that Queue syncing won't increase significantly, and a corp deploying together has likely worked together for a long time as is - meaning they are already set in tactics and need to discuss them very little before a match (speaking from experience here) I am the Forgotten Warhorse, the Lord of Lightning

Having another minute in the warbarge won't change their level of organization. This. If anything, it will give newberries a chance to get in & see what real coordination looks like. Reduction to WB time was a nerf to newbs who don't need to be nerfed. This is a great point as well. Thanks for bringing this up. Can we get a blue tag?

Forlorn Destrier 2609	Posted - 2014.07.01 19:03:00 - [7] - Quote I think anywhere from 30-45 seconds is a good amount of time. I am the Forgotten Warhorse, the Lord of Lightning

I would love to be wrong about this. I would if I had the war barge. I don't like wasting time during the match joining a 1 man squad that doesn't stand a chance of earning an OB. I think a lot of people agree with him on this, so no offense but I hope you are wrong too. EDIT: also it wouldn't be hard to change back if it doesn't work out. CCP can run the numbers and see what happens. I am the Forgotten Warhorse, the Lord of Lightning

CCP can run the numbers and see what happens. None taken. You can do one man OBs but that's besides the point. And please people, don't resort back to corner humping a poor merc who doesn't have a clue why 6 guys are surrounding him. Oh I know - I pull them fairly regularly. That said, I'd like my points to contribute a bit more, but I don't always think to join a squad between matches. Hell, I forget to restock between matches... Once I start a match I'm like "dammit" but I don't want to back out or waste precious time being the first to an objective. I am the Forgotten Warhorse, the Lord of Lightning

There is allready the squadfinder for those who want to play with randoms. Its really not that hard to take a look on it and click on a squad that is on the same crappy standard like the average blueberry. There have been other benefits listed. And what's the harm in making this chnage. Your post is not constructive one way or the other, and is more trolly than anything. Thanks for for the bump though.

Forlorn Destrier 2631	Posted - 2014.07.02 12:34:00 - [12] - Quote ChribbaX wrote: I'd be ok with this, if matches were actually loaded quicker, the stupid "estimated time 0:21" and still no match after 2 minutes is just silly. Fix matchmaking and quicker matches and then you can add even more waiting time in the barge. I always cancel if it takes 10 seconds more than the requested, then re-queue, and i seem to get into matches more quickly the second time. Not sure if that is universal though.

Now you want to make me wait longer by forcing me into the warbarge too? Heck no! Here's a tip, if you want to squad up, you can join any open squad at the beginning of the match, and check the rosters too. It only takes a few seconds to do so, so no need to do what you're suggesting, it will just slow things down even more. Read the thread - there are more reasons than just squading up - as for the squad finder - as I said multiple times, and as others have said, they don't remember to do that. The warbarge is when you are supposed to prep for battle. Thank you for your opinion and commenting though; I appreciate your opinion (though I disagree) and appreciate the bump as well.
