and how do you think they reduce q time, by putting people into qs they do not want to be in, what qs do people not want to be in, q type one a que for an unpopular nation japan (cough), q b an uptiered q
DF uses bots to replace people who abandon the match. (at first but over time bots are replaced by people)
yes i have in fact i have started playing almost all join any games (why) that would not change anything join any is not a magic button. join any gives greater rewards to get people to join games that are more likely to lead to a loss.
join unpopular faction (cough japan cough), fight against a side with stacks, fight on a side with more bots, fight in a game that already start on a loosing team ect. it is not a reward cause they like you.
No one said it was a magic button. And “join any” gives greater rewards…PERIOD. Whether you win or lose, you get more rewards. It’s not an incentive to join a match that you’d otherwise lose in.
I most definitely end up in more games playing as the Japanese - than I used to, and they are more common - at least right now - than they were when it first started. When they first released this mode, at least playing on the NA server in prime time, I played far more German than I did anything else.
You see, I’ve actually tracked my games since this game mode switched. I take screenshots of about 90% of my games, and kept profile screenshots as well, from when it started. That’s how I KNOW I’ve played over 500 games with this mode, as I haven’t played ANY games w/out the box checked off since it did.
It’s also why I know it’s not “designed” to fill up matches that have had people drop out. For one thing, far more often than not, I’m dropped into a game where I can see that neither side has a full roster yet.
Oh, and FWIW, I’ve also been on the winning side in 80% of my matches as Japan.
a full roster is not required for people to have dropped out, if their name is bright they are in the game, if it is dimmed they have dropped the game, i have seen many games with half the names dim without it being a full roster. without proof from the game company neither of us is going to give in. second br = +1 - 1 is the best we are going to get a plus 30% new players is not enough for five locked tiers, and uptiering br3 every game while only donwtiering br 2, no just no this is not a seal clubbing simulator.
if br2 can club down on br1 then br3 can club br2 and yes its all clubbing, second trust me bro is not data, third where did it say you are not filling under served/filled q to decrease q times or how they are. in fact it said they are adding people to games they are more likely to loose and encouraging them to do so by increasing rewards. why if you win you get 150% rewards so one would join a game they would likely loose without some boost to rewards. without watching a large number of random game for you or someone its hard to be scientific. did you join a loosing game only to turn the balance and carry the team ? anyways i am done.
