fire teams random? | Forums

[MoGPvt.Hilel]

OK I just figured out something else I have no clue about (like my aim). This morning I ran accross pinktaco and his bandits. All is good getting totaly rolled in one match was cool. Then another match, OK I am learning from the best thats cool. Then another and another and another. a total of seven matches with the same guys on the same team plus or minus a few stragglers. This leads me to How in the @#ll did that happen. Random???? I dont think so. Can someone fill me in on how to stay together as a fire team!!!!! I want one LOL.

Have a good day

You can create a Fire Team outside of the match. Once you create said Fire Team, you are in that group until you leave or it is disbanded. You can right click on players names and invite them to your Fire Team, or you can invite people on your friends list by clicking on the invite players to Fire Team ****on at the bottom of the Match window. So it was not Random that Pink Taco and 3 others would be together in multiple rounds as that is the first thing we do when we get online, create a Fire Team.

Thanks so much KegaroOne for the info that is an awesome feature. Would love to run with you guys one evening instead of rocken and rollin LOL. Man lst night was a record that fire team mowed down and had C and D capped at the same time LOL.

The fact that you encountered them many times in a row is only because that if you don't cancel match search after a game ends, you will stay in the same server with the same people you've just played with who decided to stay too.

Now, if PinkTaco has a fireteam of 4, you are alone, and the server is full, the chances of being assigned against them is twice higher than being assigned on their side. The less people in the server, the more chances for you to be against them.

If you want to try getting rid of them, just restart match searching and hope you'll join a different server.

Na its all good played with Pink Toconater and the bandits tonight. Felt pretty good to roll em a few times even though we lost many many times LOL. I'm sure we all feel the same it would be nice to be on the winning team once in awhile. The guys on my end mentioned a few times how unbalanced it seems. I am sure they are not aware of the fire team ability like I was. On that note thanks for the help guys.

on the ubi tools site it shows how complex the matchmaking system is ...i don't see how u can find it "unbalanced" ?

Because it doesn't work. Just because a nuclear reactor is complicated doesn't mean it works.

It doesn't work because there's NOT ENOUGH OF A PLAYER POOL. Literally everyone on the GRO staff team I've talked to has told me this (including a dev). Basically the system is overly complicated for the relatively few people playing, we're under 500 players most days and I don't think we've even topped 1,000 active players in one day yet.

It can't create accurate results because it's over-thinking the problem, and I believe that the priority in beta is just getting players matched and into games instead of making them good matches. Veteran players in steamroll matches should be trying to test things that they've wanted to try instead of continuing to steamroll. That's what we're here for.

This is all I've been doing since phase 2. I buy and play with guns I don't like just to test them out they may not be my playing style but I still test them, I try out crazy dumb strats in game some times just to test them, and put myself in situations that I could get a easy kill but instead I try some new dumb maneuver to see how well it would work in a similar situation. We are in closed beta everything is getting wiped so their is really no need to try hard.
