Match making: party plays against party

Currently many maxed level players make parties to farm single players. This leads to bad game experience for new players…the matchmaking system may need to priority party to against parties…

This I’d be ok with.

But we have no way to know for sure, because we can’t see if other players are in parties anyway…

So maybe they aren’t.

That would unironically kill playing with your friends if you have to be in a separate queue
Thats exactly what it did to casual squadding in MWO

devs surely have a way to do this. it should be at least prioritized. if there are not parties queuing, it could be ok to go for solo players.

I mean you can only be certain about the one party you are in… you cannot see if the opposite side has parties going on or not… it doesn’t show.

The queue will be same, but just parties may have higher chance to meet parties. if there is not party in queue, party can still go against normal players.

i get your point, for now yes, but most of times you can feel there are parties. and for me personally, as i am active in discord community, i know many ids, so i pretty sure there are parties.

I’d be fine with that actually
Half the time when I see people ask for this its 100% hard separate queues
So I gave my usual response lol

Poor Guy without Friends :point_right: :ok_hand:

You should queue with people more then.

I played this game 90% alone. I rather leave if I know I m facing a stacked team against me alone.
But it’s always nice to play with friends. You just don’t loose matches with them.

Hopefully One day we will have a better system to play with more people than 3 friends. A clan system or what ever.

Untill then, there is no reason to change how mm works for stacked teams or what not. You can always leave to another batle or get in a group yourself.

The matchmaker could always prefer to try matching squad vs squad, but should prioritize total wait time first. If there aren’t any other squads in the campaign and server range, bummer.

Ideally if this only affects parties with multiple high level players though, as I’m not ready to go up against 3 coordinated max levels, just because I’m playing with my lvl7 friend.

Do that and you are going to kill this feature and make people who came here to play the game together leave for another product.

Damage you would cause is just way too high.

I keep saying that every time such requests appear: People or even friends have right to play together. Just because you can´t does not mean no one should.
