    Death ballers are killing the game eh? Certainly taking their time about it, 1 and half years they’ve been “killing” this game for.

    A few things that are horribly wrong with this thread:
    1) The only players who enjoy running into premades are not, themselves, premades. I run solo and with a group and don't honestly care how I get matched. If I get a group of Randies, cool. If I get a premade, fine. Why? because if they are good players that coordinate well and win, regardless of group style, I will take the loss with grace, knowing it will at least be quick and I can move on to the next one.
    2) not every premade running similar emblems are "try hards" my group does so, if only for the reason that we can hear the collective anuses of the opposing group snap shut as they realize it's a premade.
    3) Not all premades deathball. In fact, the good ones that emphasize strategy and tactics will actively avoid deathballing in favor of the match objective because that's how you win.

    In short, in stead of trying to cripple the fun of friends wanting to group together and play a game, how about we instead focus on trying to get the developers to come up with more creative ways to encourage tactical play. Crying because you got rolled by a group of guys that enjoying playing together is the epitome of selfish, childlike mentality. Get over yourselves and stop getting so worked up over a game.

    Here is the issue with your statement Alustar. Games are only fun when the match is either competitive, or you are the one doing the rolling. When it is neither, it is not fun, but a couple of times is tolerable. The issue is, it's not a couple times. Hell, I will usually swallow my bile and stick with a bad team so long as my K/D ratio and caps are decent in the match since I am going to leave lobby and reque to avoid the up to 7 other players again and not deal with that match.

    The issue is, Ubisoft seems to think it's utterly funny to any time I que to crank out orders that I should be put into comically horrid teams. So frankly, why am I suddenly the selfish one for looking at two sources of tormentors in premades and deathballers to go use a certain word starting with F on themselves. Why is it suddenly wrong for people to go "You know what? I don't in fact feel like playing against a team that is organized when I don't want to form my own." I think just as childish and selfish to force solo qeuers to play against premades with no added benefits. The other team already has the added benefit of pregame organization.

    So no, I am very certain I am not being childish for saying that a option to refuse playing against premades is not selfish. If it is, it's certainly no more selfish than premades expecting solo qeuers who don't benefit from prematch organization.

    And sure, not all premades deathball. Those are relatively few and far between. This thread is also tackling the issue of premades ruining the fun of the game for solo que. Rage quitters are another matter but also something that is increased by rampant deathballing and Ubisoft refusing to take extra measures to make punishing it so easy the average chimp can do it (which, quite frankly, seems the be the level of player i get grouped with)

    That's the thing, there is no moving on, you will leave and queue up again just to run into the same 3-4 man. When your mmr get's to a certain level the game only matches you against premades, while giving you random teammates who just picked the game up. I can play this game everyday and run into the same people over and over again,. I don't mind losing, but this matchmaking puts me into the same 3-5groups of premades. It's not "ok let's hopefully not run into them again" it's more like "ok time to pick a different game mode".

    There's like 10 players on PC. If we split the playerbase any further, there won't be enough to get a game.

    premades has advantage over randoms on the breach map where u need objective or even to group up .matchmaker should team up premades of 2and 4 together let the better premade win . It would be more competitive but less fun because destroying noobs is easy and fun .
