if we did role queue, we would do separate SR’s. this is one of the things i think would be really fun (plus make the game way more balanced and improve matchmaking)

Do you have some plan for improving the LFG system ?
Maybe a list of players you can choose from and make your team ?

Jeff, have a peek at my Role Queue concept if you have time. If it totally sucks you can tell me. I can take it.

Awesome!
Thanks for the great work lately. It’s been a while since I’ve looked forwards to the future of the game.

Honestly, the matchmaking system should probably reinforce playing Healer/Tank.
If the numbers as skewed towards Damage mains as you’ve previously stated, maybe the game would be better to encourage people to learn new roles and playstyles.

Even with a role queue using most playtime on heroes to determine main heroes, there still begs the question of subdividing roles within each category. For example, a game is essentially already lost if the tankline consists of Roadhog and another off-tank like Zarya, or having Moira/Ana for supports.
The idea is fluid, however it needs very fine-tuning to work properly to simulate coordinated play as seen in scrims/professional play.

So I have not to fear if I want to be a lousy Hanzo main once in awhile when playing any mode. Because the one thing I fear is having to be put in a role I’m not feeling too hot about that very moment if all other roles are taken.
Those are long queue times. sorry.

I seen people throw games for no reason when they are a support main. For example, you have 3 supports on a team and 2 tanks 1 damage main. One support will straight up think triple support is bad and try to damage. They let the team down and are soft throwing.
If they stayed a support for triple support 2 tanks 1 damage. We would have won but no they didn’t. Mindsets.
Hopefully that means someone up there knows that the TP is what needs to be looked at next!

Arcadium, what is Live Ops?

I most play Comp, and tried a lot of LFG, so those are short for me.

Looks like a conference there anyway.
People don’t play those heroes because they don’t want to. It’s obvious that they don’t want to force anyone into anything.

Would have said this sooner but some reason the reply button was not working on my phone… (CURSES)
Jeff I’m exactly the same, I always flex fill roles as healer (a LOT because most people don’t want to play healer) but when I get the chance I do enjoy playing DPS. It would suck if the MM always forced me to be a healer just because I was always being a good sport, thanks for keeping our kind of players in mind with your design decisions.
