I'd say the amount of players that actually want q-syncing to be a thing is on the smaller end. [/b][/u]

Q-Syncing, in my opinion, is a problem for FW not the go to position. It's a barrier for more people than it is a facilitator for entry, exacerbated by the small player base and even more concentrated FW player base.

"I q-sync and I win like all my battles all the time! In like three weeks I was able to get 200-300k (or more!) lp for [faction]. How is this not a good thing!" is not an uncommon story for those that are benefiting most from the blatant abuse of FW's lack of matchmaking and failure to put q-syncs up against each other.

If you can consistently pull that sort of result out something is ****ing broken.

I want casual players to be able to play faction warfare with relatively low levels of organization without getting their **** RUINED by groups like Kirjuun Saaja/STF, Lucent echelon, Pie Ground Control, etc. This is not, nor has it ever been the case, hell its hard enough to just get by in pubs as a casual player (because a single 6 man squad can destroy a pub match too!, let alone an organized group of 16).

TBH the 16 man squad would be great for fw... IMO... Instead of having to que for battle at the same time you all get deployed.

Find a FW channel

I mean I know I'm rubbish at this game but I've just finished a couple of weeks running unsynched Gal FW in a vague attempt to get an APEX. My win loss ratio stands at 0.14...... Not complaining it is what it is and I accept that's what happens in starter fits and FW. By any stretch of the imagination though if you want to, not necessarily loose players, but certainly drive them off from parts of the game this is how you do it.

For all the talk of competitive qsynching too much of it seems to come down to the opposite of that otherwise qsynchers wouldn't leave battles opposite other qsynchers as much as they do and the good, top tier corps wouldn't follow each other from one faction to the next to apparently avoid each other..... I get most of the peeps left in this game are buddies and want to play together but still....

And of course from CCPs perspective a more hostile FW world means more people who resort to paying money for APEX suits (tinfoil hat firmly in place)


Again I accept that I'm useless and new and probably wrong about a lot of things but this is how things appear to me and I'm more than happy to be wrong and or educated..... Still on the bright side just 60 more defeats and I'll have an APEX. See y'all somewhere near the redline o7.

The people that are against Team deploy and think solo players matter are just simply wrong. Solo players allways get shafted, they dont contribute anything, they just get farmed allready when they are facing q-syncs that we have today. Nothing would change apart that the people that actually want to work together have less of a headache managing their team. Another thing is the team deploy would allow you to que for all 4 factions at once with all 16 players going into the same match.

If you are against team deploy then you are a unsocial twatt refusing to play with others. You the solo player should be playing a pub match and not FW.
