This also helps newer players too who aren't used to this kind of gameplay. With a squad size of 6 new players tend to split up into 3&3 or they blob up and get in each other's way. And experienced players just run all over them. 2 in ambush is a good idea but splitting squad sizes for different game modes is prolly asking a lot. Stick to 4. It divides the teams up nicely and goes in the direction you are aiming for. Been thinking about this since Uprising began, unfortunately whenever I brought it up all I got was a clusterfuck of whining and not much else. Very interesting point. Also I wonder why is it always that you want to limit the more experienced players instead of helping the newer ones?
Because New Player Experience is more important than helping vets pub stomp?

That way, people who want to converse and enjoy each-others company are still able to do so, while matches are much more balanced b/c there's nothing but full squads vs. full squads (or solo players vs solo players).
Your solution doesn't solve anything, as those 4 players will still be stomping through PUBs with ease.
I completely agree with this, nowadays it's just ridiculous the amount of ppl q-syncing.

If anything they need to increase the squad size to 8.
I remember it quite well, yet I still support small squads. You want that many ppl to chat with, make a channel. I've done it several times. Had well over 30 ppl in a channel chatting it up. Your argument for larger squads is invalid.
To raise the squad sizes will not solve any problems, only create. Two full squads stomping a full 16 of randoms who just started playing. Ya...real good way to get new players interested in Dust...

A "super squad" of 4 would be more readily opposed than a "super squad" of 6; the likelihood of a stomp declines. Further, if squad size were reduced to 4, the number of squads-in-play would increase substantially, which would increase the odds of Scotty pairing a high-Mu against another high-Mu squad.
So ... what do you base this claim upon? |
