Just got into an OPR, waited the 45 seconds. Match starts. Its 17 vs 12. Naturally the 12 lose mid and 4 quit. It is now 17 vs 8. All three points already capped, people join, see this, leave immediately.
Do you call this balance AMAZON game studios?
I left, making it 17 to 7. There’s just no reason to sit there for 5 minutes waiting for the score to end while we get spawn camped.
How does this happen you might ask? Well at 32 players queued, it invites people. If some of them don’t show up, well they’re programming already picked teams, so that team just starts down that many players. Which leads to players leaving, and there is no balance.
Every player already knows if you get thrown into a 3 cap, just leave and re-queue so there is no balance due to there being no team switching. So these OPR’s are just a waste of time.
This, on top of the fact that pre-made groups RUIN every opr they queue into, and the AMAZON game studios programming puts all the ones that do queue on the same team leads to a terrible game mode that less and less people queue for every day.
EDIT: And another. AMAZON game studios clearly puts the pre-made groups on the same team. Triple capped by 5 min, down 6 players in a 20v20 game mode.
Means 1 full 5 man premade that was in queue didnt join. So instead 17 vs 17 you got 17 vs 12.
And its bad. Should be fixed by freezing opr start untill we have equal number of players. I think ppl would lik to wait few min longer to get proper match.
But first issue is they allow 5 man premades into 16-20 members teams. Idea is simply stupid. ITs at best 25% of your team composition - 1 full premade. IF they are good they make winning super easy. If they are all potato they make wining super hard.
OPR needs separate queues for randoms and premades. Or just drop premades bigger than 3. 3 man group
I’m referring to multiple separate pre-made groups. At this point I can easily recognize the 5 stacks. And when you see a 10 stack on the other team you know the game is over before it started.
