Almost 3 months already - no additional game modes, matchmaking's still broken!

You can’t explain it any simpler Fossil.

You have 1000 predators in a queue, you have 1000 fireteam in a queue.

1 predator and 4 fireteam per game

Thats a potential of only 250 concurrent matches at any given time. The other 750 predators have to wait in a queue.

In reality its probably 2:1 ratio of people wanting to play predator over fireteam so it exacerbates the problem.

Its basic Math. If that guy has “35 years gaming experience”, how the fuck has he survived in life for so long without being able to grasp such rudimentary concepts AS NUMBERS AND DIVISION?🤷‍♂️

Surely he should have had an aneurysm from thinking too hard by now…

-create new game modes that can support more than one pred
-game modes with different objectives (to add variety)
-rank system (to allow players of similar level to face each other)
-create lobbies where players can join and when it’s full the game starts (just like street fighter 5 battle lounge)
-allow players to search by region
-add new gamemodes where preds can join humans and face another team
-release more maps (nighmode maps also) to add variety to the game.
-fix the endeless amount of bugs in this game so it can be playable

I dont know Fossil, I’m not expert in this subject, but i’m sure there are lots of solutions for this horrible matchmaking.
It’s not only the fact we need one pred to start a game and 4 ft.
There are ways you can divide players too smaller groups when matchmaking.
But in this gamemode , we can’t do nothing.
They should make the game more actractive to FT players, cuz When I play with this faction I think it’s so shallow compared to the PRED’s gameplay.
that’s why i keep playing as predator.

you don’t need to explain yourself to me because I just don’t care.

It fucks me off when people cannot have rational discussion especially at the age of 40. An age I am close to but not quite at.

You’re angry at lack of content, I’m angry at seeing people become part of the problem by bitching and whining and feeling entitled. That may not be your intention but it sure looked like it to me.

Sorry if you took my original post personally but I am quite passionate about talking solutions instead of just seeing post after post of negativity, cursing, and threats of petitions.

This game is not perfect and the only thing we can do is support the game by playing it.

The usual consumer go to of “ill get my refund, I’ll boycott the developer, I’ll make the world know how shitty a developer you are” - isn’t going to improve this game.

So you’re entitled to your opinion, I don’t agree with it and I will oppose it because I don’t think negativity leads to a positive outcome.

Desour or I swear to god Ill come after you and your bunny rabbit!

Look at Battlefield 5
that was a fkn mass at the start, now its okay
And battlefield has a lot of developers, DICE + EA are a lot of people
just give ILLFONIC time
but I have the same opinion… they have to add maps, because 3 much too little

Yeah scope. I did the math since the beta! And I knew it would result in shit!
There it is smart child! A game made by ILLFONIC who can’t comprehend a child’s basic math!

Now that you finally know it! (too late of course) you gotta think the simple question
…
They didn’t think about this when they created the whole game??
Do you really think they’ve got any expertise in making games?

Yeahhh little boy! keep insulting me!
Cuz ILLFONIC right now is reading, and laughing at you.
They knew since the beggining that this game format would lead to this massive waiting time.
And worse, they didn’t test the product and released it full of bugs.

-Game mode balance takes time, and it would need to be better than 1v4, so that 2v10 that might have leaked will actually make it worse.
-another game mode with split the playerbase, make the queues worse.
-rank system will make the queues worse.
-Isn’t that happening now? A lobby is created, when it gets full, the game starts. What are you even getting at here?
-And then you’ll be back here complaining about lag.
-Same queue problems and oh my god the balance that needs to be tweaked…
-Maps have nothing to do with queues, and nightmode isn’t feasible with the game.
-They are fixing the bugs, every update comes with a new pile of bug fixes. And that has nothing to do with queues.

Its clear you aren’t an expert.

#88

Yeah, I’m not, I’m a simple and humble man.
Keep insulting me. This is your strong.
But you clearly have much less knowledge about games.
Everything you said is pointless.

poor FossilHunter13, like the nick says… “fossil…” yeah, come back to present old one.
If you want this game to be better, stop insulting me and say something useful.

Illfonic members are laughing at you as hard as I am right now.

#89

Totally agree.
Let’s wait.

I would pay for anything that I asked for.
We are all counting on ILLFONIC to make a big change for this game that we love.

#90

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I’m not even going to deconstruct that. Nothing you said there was true or logical.

#91

They’re hiring if you can get this done @ 3 months post launch lol.

It’s definitely playable considering people are still playing pred months later and willing to sit in a 5 min queue. The biggest issue is that there’s too many preds in queue. Dead game etc

#92

I called the 3-6mo window from when we might see new maps and game modes shortly after launch.

Be patient, shit just doesn’t appear out of thin air.

@IllFonic was initially focused on game launch execution, balancing and bug fixes. Things aren’t perfect but they’ve done allot of balancing changes since launch — 9 patches in less than 3mo.

The team(s) responsible for content updates need lead-time to strategize concepts, design assets, implement, test and QA before releasing more robust items like new modes and maps.

That’s why we received Dutch, Alpha & Samurai Predators first.

The 3 maps data mined on PC version, will probably start to roll out soon. If I was them, I’d drop one map per month as free DLC with more Predators and Human survivors like Lt Harrigan.

And at the 6mo window drop a new game mode.
