Private matches has a 30 player requirement

Edit/Update: Private matches confirmed with a minimum requirement of 30 players plus no LTMs meaning control, gun run or the other modes. Arenas is available though which is good. Check the next post (solution) for more info.


According to ThordanSmash, there’s a player number requirement to use the private matches. Not clear what the requirements are yet. This is Respawn and there’s always a catch with the features they release. LOL.

What is the minimum number of players? How about control, gun run and arenas?

According to Thordan, private matches will be great for content creators as they can easily host their own tournaments or events (essy to fill up the whole lobby) but disappointing for the people who have a few friends that they just want to play around. 


This might be weird coming from me but I’m actually excited for Arenas private matches if it will be a thing. 3 of my IRL friends are on PC players and 4 of us on console so we can have these PC vs Console matches. LOL.

    @Cheese9Man I'd avoid freaking out on this. Let's wait and see what happens.

    I also agree arenas is the mode for customs. Though I'd probably still not play it lol

    @Cheese9Man AHQ Arenas Tournaments when??

    They should just do the same thing that the firing range has, where you enter in a lobby with another people, but you can't see them... maybe?

    "You will need 30 players to start a game"

    I have a very strong desire to look a Respawn employee in the eye to demand an explanation for this, but I'm afraid it would degenerate into name-calling and other abuse. Why can nothing ever be simple and fun with these people? What possible reason could they have for not wanting a player to be able to explore maps on their own?

    @reconzeroFor a brief moment I had an ideal of 3 v 3 matches, doping in at opposite sides of the map, then the drama and strain of hunting each other down, trying to be the first to engage from an ideal position...

    Then, as with all things rEAspawn, this thread killed it.
