this is so true lol. so many shit players playing shit builds with shit gear just going in opr wasting a team slot. the funny ones are the ones in heavy armor that take more dmg than medium players. they probably queu with luck gear and pearls or something

Yeah, its getting old real quick when the enemy team have 6 healers while our team have maybe one, who afk out after the ffirst death.

If 40 people sign up and 15 of them are in 5 man teams the game decides the easiest way to get the 5 people in each team together is to just put them on one team. Bacially it organises the 5 man premades first into teams then backfills any solo sign ups.

Thats why you have 3 premade 5 man groups and 5 randos vs 20 randos… its boring and uncompetitive gameplay.

I’ve been on premade team and the rando team, its boring both sides, premade u just stomp the other and rando its just get 500 points and afk coz u cant beat 15 man squad on coms with pocket 625 healers. Every game is 1000-200/300, would end quicker but premade side just farm randos at sun coz normally they have 4-5 healers while randos have 1 in light that gets ganked and they don’t take the last point even tho they can easily.

No one can tell me that this is a fun experience for either side in opr, its boring, i want competitive pvp, not rofl stomping games every match.

In my opinion the problem isnt really about premades its more about the other team members.

If you play against premade teams they are usally pvp players.

But you will end up with pve guys or low gs guys. I saw some guys with firestaff / sword and shield or spear / lifestaff + shield. And they got totally face rolled by meta players.

Even 99% of the pve healers are useless in OPR. Because most of them arent able to escape and all what they do is placing a sacred ground.

The result = you lose and feel premades are OP.

U cant honestly say that 3 5 man premades on coms dont have an advantage over randoms?

Do a war 50 completely random guys no comms vs a 50 man team on comms, all even geared and skill. Tell me who wins.

Of course they have a impact but in my opinion, its also about those pve guys

Problem is the game puts 2-3 premades on the same team every game. Every game is a 1000-200/300 stomp.

Played 2 this morning already and both games were a wash out with 1 team winning 1000-300 in both coz of the premades. I spoke to the guys on my team and there was 3 premade 5 mans on it, and for them the matches were boring.

Problem for everyone at the moment.

Either balance the premades per team or make separate queues. Otherwise opr is going to be bland and die out. Hopefully the 3v3 arenas may draw the premades out from opr and into that but will have to wait and see.

Another option that i think would be really good is a join as army, 20 man group. So you can do a full company group opr vs another full company group. Maybe have leader boards for company wins etc. I would 100% watch top companys fight it out in opr on twitch as well.

Hello Mod,

As it is the only PVP mode wide available on the game, it is quite important that it have separated queues for groups/solo. (It is a lesson learned by other games, like League Of Legends)

The win-rate of pre-made groups is quite expressive, and get it even worst when multiple groups join in sync, allowing to have multiple guild groups on the same game.

or to make it simple because of low pops can’t do opr if solo/group opr is separated
make all opr solo only ez solution right there

Bump

I hope this changes on the next patch… OPR is unfun as hell right now

I think they could balance the number of premades per team. If 4 groups of 5 players join the lobby, 2 groups will be placed on the blue team and 2 teams will be placed on the red team.

The big problem is team compositions. The life staff and, to a lesser extent, melee determine who will win the game. Since you can switch your gear and attributes on the fly, AGS cannot balance teams based on weapon class unless they remove the ability to change gear/attributes during OPR. Otherwise they could balance the life staff, so it doesn’t have such a disportional impact in OPR.

Who cares Its just opr lmao when the games over jsut play another one who cares if you win or lose lol.

I dont even see them as the issue tbh. I think the much bigger issue is the pve players coming in and just doing some simple farming for enough point for rewards. Those players are the worst and much more of a plague to OPR

i don’t mind them if they keep doing stuff, like buying battlebread and zypher cakes and chucking them in storage… but the ones who hit 500 and afk are a plague

Nah some fights you literally need all hands on deck. That means those “I only PvE players” usually make those fights a total loss. Those players are and will always be a plague to that game mode.

Agree!!!

Personally I think the whole mode should be solo queue. There’s WAR and upcoming arenas for groups.

Please do not listen to bad feedback from players who dont want competition ingame.If you remove group que you will force players to be in a group with bad players who don’t know what they are doing and I know from my pass gaming experience this is not good.Im playing this game with my friends so I do like teaming with them and we all hate when they did this to us in Age of Conan.We quit this game because they remove group que and they force players to solo que and be with bad players or to fight and kill your friends on opposite team.This is no good for players who play this game with there frends.I mean if they want to be good why they dont get this challenge to different level and find the good group of players and fight this pre-made if someone running???Take the game on different level and dont try to take out group que because someone dont have friends and he only que solo.Do not force players to dont be able to group que with there friends who they playing the games for long time.Just look other MMORPG games they dont take out group que and this is why they are still doing good becouse you dont want to force players to dont que with there friends.This is really bad and I hope you guys will not remove group que for OPR.
