Filter for Game In-Progress

We need a matchmaking filter or setting that blocks attempts to join Coop games that have already been started.

  • That would be against the general principle of the game's design to allow people to join in-progress matches - same design for numerous multi-player games including Battlefield 2042, V, etc.. It is highly unlikely this would be implemented, particularly for this game, which is now over 5 years old.

    @JaHimeHisui the problem with that is that in time the you'd spend as much time waiting -- some of the waiting times in SFA and HvVSFA (and in the Squadrons game, come to think of it) are horrendous. Part of that is to do with the abominable matchmaking methodology.

    My preference would be to have a type of co-op where heroes are unavailable. I enjoy playing co-op as I'm very bad at MP modes outside of SFA and the amount of times I back out of Kessel/Emp or DSII/Emp is ridiculous. Having Iden, Palp or Bossk spawn camp the AI is so boring.

    I wonder what pleasure these kids get from it. Maxed out rankings and yet constantly prevent foot-soldiers from getting a kill. I love Geonosis for this as it is a really hard map to complete even with hero spam.

    While I'm moaning about co-op... is it just me or has there over the last six months or so been a change in the amount of bubble shields on both teams? I get so fed up with three or four of my AI teammates popping a shield and running in front of me these days. It never used to happen. And it seems the enemy AI are just as spammy with bubble shields.

    Oh, and team-mates who spawn on me when I'm taking out an enemy troop, and start blasting them and taking the kill... bad form, man, baddddd form. :D
