Multi-partying is now an issue

I've run into groups working together on at least 3 occasions now. It will be two seperate squads working together in the same game. Apex Legends needs to do something about this ASAP. I'm sure pe...

What's the solution though?

Prevent squads queuing into the same matches in sequential games?

That'll significantly increase queue times. (Dramatically so if they expand the number of game modes to solo/duo)

Ranked is already evidence of this, with significantly longer queue times at certain hours. Moreover you frequently get matched against the same opponents in back to back games.

Reporting such behaviour?

Extra policing work for their staff, and banning players drives away customers; not something that's healthy long-term.

Not doing anything about it is going to hurt the game as well. I'm not going to continue to play against groups of players. We stand absolutely no chance against 6 people. It's even worse when the 6 people working together are skilled players. 

Look at BFV, Cheating has destroyed that game. This is cheating in some degree or another.

I agree ranked has long wait times. But what would we prefer? Fair gaming and long wait times? or horrible gaming and short wiat times? I'll tell you what happens when I start getting tag teamed, I close the game and so do my friends.

I used to play BFV frequently on my xbox. Mouse and Keyboard players have absolutely ruined it for many. If you're a casual gamer with a standard controller, then BFV is absolutely unplayable  for you.

    Is this really such a frequently occurring problem that it need to be prioritized? Ive seen teaming once or twice in my 500 hours of playing this game.

    Generally, I dont think most naabs who would think teaming is a fun think to do would have the patience to sit and wait through legend selection several times just to get into the same server as their buddies. And if people do this in ranked, they will loose RP every game they dodge when they dont get into the same game...
