I have seen comments in several threads that say, Team Queue shouldn’t be accessible by solo players. I remember words like broken and bug.

What is the reasoning behind this?

I think if that would be changed, the solo players would just start using the lfg tool to form groups.

So one extra step to get there.

However looking at the PvE / dungeon situation I fear it wouldn’t take a minute for the first “no ele” and “only meta of the month” things to pop up there. Which sounds like an awful direction to go IMO.

first of all. no ele definetly.

secondly, don’t we want people to use LFG more? it’s a very ignored tool that i wish people were using often.

however, if the party formed does not care what builds the others are using they are to be blamed for the bad performance.

we could simply use LFG, form group, ask eachother what they are, have an incoming of “no bunker?” -> “i go bunker”. meaning they set up the team the way they like before start OR just leave the group when you think it’s not working. ---> here you have the choice to not be randomed up with people you don’t prefer

TL;DR, getting the LFG system more active for tpvp would be great.

oh one more thing; remove joining as solo for team queue and joining as 4 people.

You can’t exclude the solo players in tpvp because the premade 4’s need the yolo to make 5.

I don’t really think this is a problem.

  • The premades get to farm easy points against Pugs.
  • Pugs get to avoid the cancer called Skyhammer and have to deal with less 5 vs. 4.
  • Everyone gets better rewards.

It’s a win/win for everyone involved.

unless u face a good team as pug and they roflstomp u and farm u on exit to prevent u from getting at least some points to get the reward.

I play TeamQ every day and things aren’t that bad. I join solo all the time and have about a 50/50 win/lose rate. While I do occasionally lose to premades it’s never as bad as getting farmed from spawn. And often premades aren’t that much better than a good pug either.

I do however try to avoid premades by not queuing during prime-time.

TeamQueue should always try to match a fullteam vs a fullteam.

Outside of that i can only agree, if you like to get more good games play teamqueue .

Normally nobody leaves there or stops playing if you are 100pts behind, and also you get better rewards .
