Yep my friends list moved on.
That’s a ratio thing not a population thing. But during offhours the knapsacking bottleneck really shows up. The matchmaker is GASPING for a born-yesterday sucker to throw as tank so it can finally close the knapsack and ship a single match.
It’s not a red herring argument because it’s not about queue times (sufficient but not necessary). There is no misdirection. It’s a basic mapping problem. 17 into 2 saps fun and agency. And then you literally have to BRIBE people to play tank (8 into 2).
“Hey guys we need many more of you to play stuff that’s horrible and unfun (tank), so that the few unicorns who like playing tank can stop crying that they’re the only tank in open queue - because they actually don’t like playing tank.”
What a cringe way to constrain people.
