Remove solo queue from Scenarions

[Sadsong]

I'm a solo player, rarely I join a wb, what to say about sc!? I just do sc as solo and under 40. Removing solo queue for sc is removing the fastest way to rank a character.

If your idea was implemented, would be easier for me dont get into sc anymore than join a group. I just don't like to have responsability in a thing I wanna just have fun. And like me, there are many other players that think in that way and then scs would die. Because who like to team up for scs, do it already, others players don't and that's it.

No one thinks twice about having to join a group for content in any other MMO, but for some reason RoR players seem to think it doesn't apply here, and worse than that, that it's actually a bad thing.

THIS

Since the matchmaking mechanic cant guaranty proper setups, maybe some kind of group finder addon would be a good solution. I mean, /5 channel works fine, but people seem to need colorful pictures. Ok, if it helps, give them...

man, it wont remove anything, actually you could rank your charackter even better, cause now you would have a proper setup and can play your dps with guard and heal, instead of failing by melting instantly and drag down your teammates... all you would have to do is joining a group. But obviously this is asked too much for some people...

No, it still being a bad idea. It didn't work on ranked and wouldn't work on common sc. People simply don't like having to make groups, and it's all right! Those who like make groups, win scs and it's all ok! I think you didn't understand, forcing me and those who think like me to group up to make sc would block us do to so. Would not be better in anything!

Warhammer for me and for many players is a place where we can relax without having to talk to people! I'm like this, I even avoid guilds! I wanna my freedom to log when I want, do what I want and go when I want.

That's absolutely not true. Being forced into a group with bad players doesn't magically make your team good. If you're the one running into a fight to be melted (whether grouped or solo) then you're the bad player.

The only thing that slows leveling solo/2-3-6man queueing in t2 is the frequency of scenarios (population). Has very little to do with group comp. It's actually quite rare that a good 6man is impacting t2 scs significantly and usually when they are it's high pop time when you will still get scs without them.

In t4 during high pop you avoid one 6man and run into 2 others. Or you are in the 6man and run into various pugs / 6mans but not the same ones over and over. Facing the same groups/players over and over only happens during population lulls. But is it a pop lull or just people not queueing? Probably the latter, as the rewards are pretty bad and thus a large percentage don't queue at all.

If the rewards were significant enough people would queue regardless of outcomes -- see city queues right after currency change. Losing a city after the royal crest -> war crest change still resulted in 150+ war crests, 250ish for a win. So people would go queue up whether they thought they were going to face some 24-man guild warband or pugs.

This is such a boomer take. Sure, if we do live the times of Ultima Online. Like come on. In WoW you press button as solo player, bam you are in dungeon with group, bam you are in battleground with group, bam you are in arena as a trio, so on and so on. Even Warhammer has open WB window, press button bam you are in a group, same goes for scenarios, you press button and let me say it again, bam you are in scenario in a group. Even ancient game like Warhammer Online had these features. I vote we remove /5 and force people to look groups on discord chat, just to make it not so easy and no need for COLORFUL PICTURES! That would make it too easy I agree, because we are REAL players, from 1999, none of this modern **** in our game damnit.

Edit: Here a few images, it is like there might be some sort of framework and possibility for COLORFUL PICTURE -windows. (Count at least a few colors in one of those windows, ignore highlights)

I think they should bring back solo/duo q discordant, longer q if solo dps q with a healer or tank friend and you get shorter queues and more balanced games. People have busy lives maybe they have 1hr here or there 30mins or couple hours, maybe their mates or guildies aren't on when that time is available. This change would make tonnes of people have fun in the game again and not just log off or run around following mass blobs in rvr.

[Hazmy]

I think Scenarios should be focusing on fast and easily accessible games to people who otherwise don't have the time to properly group up in RvR and just want to have fast quick fun for 30 minutes or so.

Scenario should be the game mode you can queue up into and play ANY time no matter what is going on. Making groups mandatory is a surefire way to killing it even more.

Agreed with Bregon above, bring back and focus more on Solo Q and Duo Q that people actually loved and made SCs very active at the time.

@Hazmy&@Bregon

This will not anyhow change the fact that they wont have fun (nor they will que more) because they will still get stomped. It doesnt change a fact that barriers are still there and no comeback mechanics exists (no, this stupid buff is not comeback mechanic). DuoQ been disabled is the lobby of those for whom you lobby yourself at the moment. Also all those who you sound to care about have no problems to queue into warfronts for whole weekend doing 30-50+ SCs and then come here with another weekly rant of "premades vs pugs" while still zealotly discard an option to group up.

There are major, incredibly big design flaws with SCs that dont lay in a field of solo/group queing. And thus there is no easy solution like you seem it sound.
Only combination of changes may drastically affect how bad SCs are at the moment, and those changes affect every part of SC design, not only how you que.

[derKleineKerl]

Yeah duo que discordant would be nice and make the que mix realms so people cant que at the same time to get in the same sc on the same side as a 6 men.
