Title: Groupfighting matchmaking
Post by: Coconut on January 20, 2016, 10:24:23 pm
Matchmaking makes most games what they are. CSGO, Dota 2, League of legends ect...

It would be amazing if FSE had match making for 5v5 Groupfighting or nagroupfighting.com

You login, hop in a queue and once 10 people are in queue it starts the match and evens the teams relative to the elo of each player.


what do you guys think

Sadly wont happen, but it could be done via a website.

That would be cool, though interesting to see if the matches would be actually balanced.

Would have love having the same for Native, 8v8 or 5v5 sadly I think neither TW or FSE will do something about it cause they ain't having the time nor the interest for that

Would need a website with coding and a server with scripts

It could create an issue tho with the fact that someone like Evan for example rarely plays gf but is still a lot better than most of the really active people so his elo might be very low where as people who are on everyday, although not as skilled would be a lot higher.

I think it would bring a lot of people back to the game if there was ranked progression

Probably also true, it would make it seem like you are playing for something. (Just like old gf leaderboards did).

Any devs thought on how nw would be with this, or if it came up in a discussion about BCoF?

I would kill for this

an alternative.. you could start a teamspeak server where players can join different lobbies for 10 man's. teams would be picked schoolyard style, with 2 team captains. you would just need a few servers on NA and EU with 12 slots or so (a few extra for specs and admins if need be)

This sounds a lot of how games like CS:GO does FPL. But it would be cool to see it implemented, sadly those are just fantasies.

Don't have to be. Make a thread, get a ts, server, and do schoolyard style. People get points for kd, wins, level of opponent, all that.

Yeah thats what I was thinking, A website would take way much coding and probably wont even work. That schoolyard thing sounds epic tho, I think I'll steal that idea for a tourny

Why just a tourny ? We just need 2 dedicated peeps to do this and a few guys that can buy the ts and a few servers. I would do it, but NWWC is stealing my time :(

I mean you could have a website that keeps track of scoreboards, that's been done many times before. Doesn't have to self match-make them but at least this way you could keep on top of who is on top easily.

If this could be done I would be very happy. Not a real fan of huge scale GF.
