very simpel this will increase the quality for all players. also removeing boosted players that is plagueing my games.
and remove duo queue there is no reason 1 player as to suffer because 2 others want to play together. they can do that in pubs. duos never communicate they are and you can be sure they only talk when they run in and die and it is all your fault
Thanks for the post.
Removing rank protection could be a good or bad thing. A lot of people suggest here on the forum it could be bad as there are many Plat 1/Diamond 4 players that are hard stuck would then just really wreak the game for Gold and below ranked players. Honestly IDK. I do think that maybe EA/Respawn should go ahead and give it a try for a season or half season and see what the date provides and how it affects play.
I in no way agree with removing the option for two people (friends) from loading up into a trio lobby. I have played as a random solo with such a duo sqd. many times. Try to play with them and let them take the lead. I know it does not always work out well trying to get on the same sheet of music but the alternative is forcing 3 randoms with each other and that makes comms and playing as a cohesive unit even harder or only allowing full stacked premades of 3 to play which would totally mess up the player base and the game because people have real lives as well.
The current system of loading in as a solo, duo or three stack is perfectly fine in my opinion.
Maybe try finding 1-2 people you can play with to limit your solo Q concerns. I play solo Q quite often and it works out for me about 80% of the time. I also play 1 day a week with my dedicated 2 friends se we are a premade 3 stack and 1-2 times a week with one of them or the other as a duo premade, when we are duo we try to incorporate our third as much as possible depending on how willing they are to interact with us.
Best of luck to you.
maybe add option so you can avoid duos the pain to play with them is to extrem. just give me 1 good reason to play with duos
Did you not read my post?
The reasoning is all in there.
The game is not a single player only game persee.
You could always just play no fill.
The game shouldn't even demote people at all. You just get preds who skip a season, just to rip you to shreads in the next. Although, even if you don't get demoted, these preds would just smurph and cheat. 99.9% if the playerbase - or at least those I get in my lobbies are one of the following: noobs, cheaters, smurphs, (or they're cheating AND smurphing).
About 60% of them are smurphing, 30% are cheating, and 10% are noobs, and the 10% is almost always on my team and its annoying.
Most of the diamond and up players, are simply cheaters. (A good 85% of them), a smaller group of them are legit streamers, like Timmy and Lulu. Its honestly sad to see level 500's running around, using wall hacks, aimbot, anti-recoil, etc. its like why cheat? I'ma just assumed these people got hacked.
@DanskermandI don't think it would do any good... it wouldnt increase the quality for any player and would NOT remove boosted players from your games. First you have the situation that master players and preds are already playing against D1 players... because not enough players at that level; demoting Masters would lower that pool to play against preds even more and have them constantly reaching Master then being demoted.
Secondly those players will continue to be boosted constantly by their friends. Then you have the fact that stuck players should in fact help you grind up; if you are plat 4 you play against plat 4 stuck players mostly which means you can wreck them, if you can't then you are the problem it won't help to fight against plat 3 players and NOT stuck players. Then you have the fact that those players for example stuck plat 4 are gonna be constantly be demoted to gold 1 by 36 points and be back to plat 4 every 2 games how does that make any sense?
It would also mean that those reaching Master would stop playing their main account so to not lose that Master badge/title then hop up on a smurf to wreck you on that lower rank, Diamond 4 players would do the same wrecking smurfing against Platinum players that are trying to grind up, Platinum 4 players that are stuck would also stop playing rank with their main account to secure the rank and wreck lower lobbies with their smurf; how would you love that?
Playing solo Q rank is the most random thing ever; you have no idea how those players are gonna play how they are gonna support you it means you have adapt to that environment by not counting on them at all and playing a little bit further away from enemies so you can save your own life when you have to.
Maybe you just need a couple of good friends to play rank with.
@DanskermandIt is not for the badge... it is for the diving tail and most importantly beginning next split one tier higher. Why would you want to play between 2 ranks? You would have to change your style of play every 2 games so annoying you never adapt to the new rank that you are not adapted to. I started going up in platinum after many seasons being stuck at p4 imagine if the person can only get a glimpse each time he rank up that person will never rank up in platinum same for diamond or master
I think you misunderstood me, I do not have to endure playing with duo's. In fact I would rather play with a premade duo then with two other solo Q players because there is then less players to try and get on the same sheet of music.
