Queue times :/

[XxPrimal47xX]

I wonder if switching the matchmaking style to how Friday the 13th has it set would make it an all around better experience with queue times. I’ve been going back and fourth on these games and found the counsellor-Jason ratio on picks to not be bad at all (as I set pref to Jason but Still like counsellors). I’d like to see this matchmaking style tried out and see if it improves the experience. As much as I love this game, 8 min predator queues just makes me want to stop playing all together :/

If this post looks familiar that’s cause it is

no this isn’t a good idea you’ll end up with angry players like me who don’t find fireteam fun angry that i have to waste your time and my time to play the game i want causing me to do this which i have done before if i’ve been on your FT and done this i am not sorry

when i play fireteam randoms i explicitly run all stealth perks on scout with a silenced smg and grenade launcher i run around the map mudded 100% of the time and pick up all the Veritanium stuff then wait for either my team to win the game or die if they all die off i kill myself via the grenade launcher
if this change happend i’d just be doing this more often ruining more peoples games
sadly the best way to deal with que times is to incentivize the players to play the fireteam more than the pred
the 2 easiest ways to do this 1 is fireteam earns more_____ which atm is just true fireteam usually earns more xp and more veritanium per game
2. fireteam is more fun/powerful to play which sadly is the hard thing to do i’d say they are more powerful than pred together but separate they have to be very good at the game to be better but are they fun for some people they might be but not me.
i have no interest in solo queing fireteam if i was forced to i’d either quit or do as i said above
if my pre made isn’t online i don’t want to fireteam that’s what predator is for

my reasoning for why i play this way it’s not fun for me generic fps gameplay will never be fun for me sorry
and because it’s team oriented i have to rely on others to hold their weight if they don’t i have a a hard time blaming myself for what someone else might’ve caused League might’ve done this to me but i can’t help the person i’ve become by playing it for 6 years it’s why generally i perfer my competitve games to be 1v1 nowadays cause then i can only blame myself or get into the numbers and see if it’s a knowledge i lack

simply put no

So what you’re saying is, when you random queue you completely ignore your fire team squad to just solo run around and collect everything you can, ignoring objectives and hoping your team wins it for you or you k.o yourself… sounds like that says a lot more about how you play as a member of a team than it does about the state of the game. Guarantee the only people that’ll cry about the change just suck at the fire team and don’t want to use their mic to communicate like they should.

The fire team is already o.p enough as it is… it’s meant to be A-symmetrical. The predator should ALWAYS be way more o.p that’s how it’s supposed to be. Of course people would rather be the predator no different than Jason, it’s just fun being the beast obviously. Giving people the option to queue ONLY as the predator just makes the game way to lopsided I’m terms of queues AND the community will always cry about balance between the two when THERE SHOULD BE A POWER IMBALANCE. There has to be a monopoly for the predator pick or it’s going to ruin the game.

Switching matchmaking to how Friday is set up would work being as there’s only 5 to a lobby Where as Friday has 8. The flow of games would just be faster everyone would get a more even chance at the predator and match’s would flow way quicker… play the game as a team or don’t play at all 🤷‍♂️

Sure the fireteam gameplay isn’t cod smooth and yes there needs to be some changes to fireteam to make it a bit more enjoyable. Npc’s should be way more squishy and maybe a bit less in numbers spawned during events/ objectives because your main focus should be worrying about the predator.
