If they force gameplay in quickplay fuck their game, the main reason I’m against it is that I constantly end up on the same map and mission and it would be foolish to make it so challenges are unaffected because most of the player base now is using private matches with friends to kill the queue times for themselves and their friends, and also things like 25 muds dont make me wanna play so I solo those and get on with playing another game for the day. Those who refuse to make friends and private match suffer the queue times, even as predator this game is more fun with friends then quickplay with toxic shit fireteams
Ideas to Reduce Predator Wait Time
I mean no other game lets you go into private and farm challenges and shit solo. Im not saying we should get rid of privates. just saying either rewards for them need to be removed, or you need to have other players with you to play them to prevent solo farming.
See above edit
and subsequently killing queue times for others. Its a cycle that only gets worse over time. There needs to be a push back to the matchmaking so that the game has a healthier playerbase and queue times.
Quickplay sucks. If I go solo in it I’m with people who cant find their ass with both hands the match makes 2 to 3 minutes before everyone is dead what is the fun in that, I play games to relax and be entertained matches that hardly exfil with no time to get veritanium are both pointless and annoying and I don’t care to cater to people who dont make friends from the community and if they force it I wont play plain and simple
Unfortunately its a multiplayer game. first and foremost. If enough people think like you, none of us will have a game to play anymore…
Still not changing that if they force anything I would dump this game like the hot trash it is. Private matches are the only reason I’ve stuck around at all and I’m usually in parties of 15 people playing 3 separate games so I dont see the game dying from us doing that. If people dont want to be social that’s not my problem
If you are in full private matches then you arent the kind of players im talking about punishing. im talking about people who load into a private match, by themselves, and farm shit out. I gurantee you a VAST majority of the playerbase does that shit. Especially when grinding verit.
get them out of privates, and we will have a lot more players to work with.

And yes, Im one of these fucking players. I abuse it as much as everyone else. its fucking dumb though, because I can abuse it, I literally NEVER have to play FT on pub matchmaking.
The players that go into private matches are probably the same ones saying we need to buff predator and get rid of reinforcements. Probably the same ones who who cry saying we need to buff the fireteam and nerf and the predator. You will be a good predator by playing good fireteams. Playing as the fireteam with a squad is easier imo, but we have been wiped by really good predators too.
Exactly
That’s a good idea… I had suggested in another post to let players play a mini game while they wait… it doesn’t solve The waiting problem but at least makes it more bearable
I wouldn’t mind the wait times if I could do that you can give us an objective to do or something
