I’m happy to, because I am not here to fight, I’m here to talk about how to make the game better.
Sometimes building something new is the fix.
40v40 is an awesome idea, but in practice, it is fundamentally flawed.
Too many players in a match just turns into which team can shot call and target assist better. Objectives become less relevant because you don’t have to think about them if you can steamroll the other team.
They dropped 5v5 arena quick as anything.
When was the last time they made a 40 player raid?
On the other side, 2v2, 1v1 with 40 specs to balance? They haven’t really tried for that.
For deathmatch arena, 3v3 does seem to be the sweet spot. and that is where they have been trying to tune things to.
8v8 with duo Q for healers is the sweet spot for BG. They have put together a new and better matchmaking engine, with new and better maps/rulesets. They should use the new tools to improve the leveling and freshly capped experience.
Make some kind of new Leveling Blitz and give it as an option, alongside the old system.
Not something I am expecting to see next week, but I really hope they are working on it.
