Numerous people have told you this over the pages of your thread and you are still making assumptions like '66% of players squad up, this is true for every faction'. This is not true. If 80% of people on the Gallente side squad up and 20% of people on the Caldari side squad up, there is not going to be a 50% chance of victory for either side. Quote: Your argument is that organized teams win. As long as there is an equal distribution of percentage of players who squad up in each faction, then there is an equal chance of either side having organized players. The arguments of Ghosts and MINA are absolutely correct. There is not an equal distribution of players who squad up in each faction. Thus, there is not an equal chance of either side having organised players. The Federation is not a defined region of space, of planets, of mountains, rivers, or woods. It is a vision.

I would like to know if there are any choices that I could make as a solo player to influence my chance of being assigned to a winning team. Play well. If you want to be 'assigned to a winning team', then squad up. The Federation is not a defined region of space, of planets, of mountains, rivers, or woods. It is a vision.

If you want to be 'assigned to a winning team', then squad up. You keep repeating obvious information. I am asking for additional detail from developers who could shed light on what is happening technically, not the common knowledge of the community. A dev posting in this thread is not going to magically make all sides ever equal. You asked if you could, as a solo player, increase your chance of being assigned to a winning team. Aside from that essentially being a request to be carried all the time, how exactly do you propose this be accomplished? You press X on the queue, and then get thrown into the first match available. How is this conducive to a dev comment helping you get on a team to carry you? The Federation is not a defined region of space, of planets, of mountains, rivers, or woods. It is a vision.

It takes a surprising lack of talent to have a KDR below 1 when you have over 28k kills. A rate of 160 WP/D does not indicate that you are a logi, either, although I suppose it's better than your miserable KDR. You are average at best. Perhaps you would be better if you displayed an ability to adapt, rather than insisting on going solo into FW and declaring that it's your team's fault.

It has often taken me under 5 minutes to put together a full squad from one of the established FW channels and then go on to win matches all night long, regardless of the side.

PC groups nowadays, and even back when I did PC used to form up and hour before battles and just talk tactics, fits, and other junk. That is fine for some. To me it is just a waste of time, so I avoid waiting around on people and listening to the blather. Don't forget, not everyone plays the game for the same reasons, or feels rewarded by the same aspects as you do. Then it is quite simple - do not play a gamemode with a greater emphasis on organisation and teamwork if you want to just play solo.

But it is unreasonable to try it, lose a few matches, and then declare that there must be a problem with the matchmaking and obstinately insist on it despite the reasons behind the uneven teams being repeatedly explained.

I can request things from Devs. I can sabotage teams. I can send you 500 million ISK. I can do anything I want to all day long. I could join the winning FW factions. I could wait to queue synch. I could run solo. I can do anything I want to all day long. Equally, we are free to tell you how bad you are when you complain that you are losing for it.
