So my little children its story telling time again and i will share with you some pearls from the closed beta.

In the closed beta we had something called "server list/matchlist". Where every match in the game was listed on some kind of browser. How about if the FW matchfinder gets replaced with the server list/matchlist from the old days? Once you deployed into the match the warbarge would stay on standby until there where enough players on the opposition. Then the timer would count down and the match begins as usual.

This has some advantages over the the regular matchfinder that we have now:

-you can see how many people are on the opposition before you join it (making it more appealing then just wait on a 0.00 timer
-q-syncing would be much easier to do cause you could simply tell the squadleaders to join a specific match/district from the list
-organising with eve pilots would be easier to do cause at the moment you have to call out the districts at the same time when you are joining (making it rather hard for the pilot to travel accross regions).
-Eve FW corps would be more interested to work with dust players. Cause once a merc can controll where he is heading he can make a bigger impact on the system hes fighting in.

It just has upsides to it. FW players are more organised then your all day blueberry from pubs. The concept would work and you are allready doing something very similar to PC with all the district listing. Just make it so that the matches with the most players in it are allways at the top of the server/matchlist and you can call it a day.

This needs more posts and more attention.

This would go a long way toward making Dust involvement in FAction Warfare more strategic.

Facepalm. Too many maps now. Plus there was no randomization, so some maps may never see action. Some details can be ignored

Join them to farm that WP Doesnt work. On the old code the warbarge timer would not go down if there wherent enough players. So if you would join the train map and nobody else joins (due to OBVIOUS REASONS!) then the match never starts. Which would mean farming LP is not possible. I make the scrubs scream and the vets cry.

It also needs more threads, because CCP listens to repetition, which is obvious because of all the darn buffs and nerfs we get. Visit the Petition and let our voice be heard.

Sgt Kirk Fatal Absolution Negative-Feedback 10246	Posted - 2015.04.22 11:55:00 - [20] - Quote It makes me mad that several good features of this game where done away with for really no reason, did deploying from the starnmap really hurt that much? Was waiting in the warbarge for FW really that bad? Old CCP focused on the wrong things for user experience while destroying everything else. God I'm so glad old CCP isn't making dust right now. Especially CCP Z and his antics. I digress, I fully support this idea. *As long as 5/6 (83%) of infantry AV weapons are Anti Armor based you're never going to achieve vehicle balance CCP*
