Don’t be too harsh on yourself bro, your not that much of a clown
At least try insults that weren’t used in primary school.
Whoosh
This is just something they tell themselves to make themselves feel better about their nonsense. They have to believe stuff like this.
I was shocked when I saw a premade in solo play. It wasn’t even close. There were 5 players in a group against PUGs. Didn’t I see the word “solo” when I entered. 5 entering as a group is not solo. Note in the definition:
done by one person alone; unaccompanied.
Are you talking about Random Battlegrounds?
If you are talking about Random Battlegrounds, there is nothing indicating that it’s solo.
Been running into queue-synced premades in Korrak pretty often.
Not a fan of queue syncing anywhere but in Korrak specifically it’s very much against the spirit of the game, which is to be old school AV fun that you can queue with your crappily geared alt. Going up against a premade there feels like being on a little league baseball team put up against a team in the MLB. How well you’re geared or how good you are doesn’t even matter because the majority of the opposing team is geared and skilled as well or better while your teammates are a random smattering of level scaled alts and capped players in varying degrees of progression.
Breaking queue syncing wouldn’t be that difficult. Add a jitter to the queue (e.g. don’t actually queue the player until 10s-5m after they press the button, despite what the UI says), avoid putting more than 10% of the same players in subsequent games, etc. There will be some level of cat and mouse games but the system is restricted enough that the back and forth is finite, and Blizzard has the advantage.
That’s odd, you can queue for Korrak as a full raid, there is no need to sync.
I wasn’t aware of that at all, wow. It’s kind of crazy, why willingly pit premades against randoms in a seasonal battleground that they went out of their way to make accessible to the most undergeared characters in the game? Makes no sense.
In vanilla anybody from 50 up could queue for AV yes, but the power disparity wasn’t anywhere nearly as bad and more often than not both sides were an even mix of capped and 50-somethings.
I don’t get it either, it does seem at odds with their modern stance. I suppose it might be because it’s meant to be as close to original AV as is possible.
