Hopefully, one change coming is that they stop allowing idiots to start a match before there are 4 players in the game. I'm sick and tired of joining games where idiots start a match short of players. If it's started before I join or hear the objective taking damage... it's an automatic return to Giddy Park for me. I'm not wasting my time in a loss because some idiot is too impatient. Happens way too often.

I used to wait for a full team but gave that up long ago.... due to people starting the game anyway.... I have now joined the ranks of the "idiots" as you call them..... so nowadays I will, sometimes, start a game before the team is full but generally ask (if there is somebody there) if they are "Ready"...
and sometimes, if there is nobody there, I will just start the game on my own.
Ops is pretty easy as it stands mostly and I have found that you don't need a full team anyway....
unless you get caught out with a new team and a Yeti or a Squash, sometimes that doesn't go well, in fact it can go horribly wrong despite any efforts made to try and show the new folk what to do... but its all part of the fun 😃
However, it is interesting that you say you will leave the game if someone starts it before a full team is there, as I had not considered this would put people off and they would leave....and I have noticed people leaving at the beginning and wondered why, maybe this could be the reason. I will definitely take this into consideration in future games.
Not sure what platform you are on, but on PC if you waited for a full team every time you would spend a lot of time waiting.
Normally when starting a game of Ops, I generally just get started on it straight away, rather than waiting for more people to join, but I'll consider that in the future!
I'm hoping that in this month's livestream, that Garden and Graveyard Ops will get addressed during that session. Even if the developers don't plan on adding anything at that time, such as Phase 3, to Ops in March, then it would be nice if they give us a heads-up that it will be coming at some point sooner rather than later in the future. Many people, including myself, have been wondering when this next phase of Ops is going to come out! Many of us don't play Ops or don't enjoy Ops because it has nowhere near as much variety as it used to back in GW2, there's no difficulty, different places you can place the garden or graveyard, those kinds of things. No variants are fine with me, but what about the other Ops features that many of us loved? I'm hoping the developers mention something like this sooner rather than later, at least just so we know that there's a spanner in the works with the Ops! 🙂
Since BfN had its official release, not much has happened in terms of PvE. Many of us really like the PvE side of it, as well as the PvP. I'm really hoping they look at adding lots of things to the PvE side of the game, as well as continuing to improve PvP. PvP is quite fine at the moment, but there are inconsistencies present as well!
