View Full Version : Hidden PSR + Auto Balance Mode?

PSR has been getting to me lately.
Here is the problem. During manual team selection, a lot of people would try to join stacked teams and when that happens, the 7th-10th joiners will be intimidated and leave because they don't want to be on a team with lower PSRs vs a team with higher PSRs. This is cyclical, and usually makes filling up a lobby to start a game very annoying and time consuming.

My suggestion is to create a new Auto Balance Mode. In this mode, PSR is hidden, and teams are automatically balanced when the game starts. Players cannot be locked, and stats cannot be viewed while in one of these games.

This way, games will start a lot quicker while teams are somewhat balanced as per PSR probabilities. You would still gain and lose PSR in this mode, the only difference is you don't know the PSRs of anyone else in your game and just expect it to be relatively balanced.

This is especially good for players who play solo and don't want to keep getting stomped by teams of 4.

My two cents.
Cheers.

Can you guys have an option for hosts to disable freakin PSRs. So hard to get games going specially when we have a premade. Pisses me off.

I CAN'T PLAY WITH MY FRIENDS.

We've invented the Xagero Switch.

We put our friend with near 1900 PSR on the other team, when the game fills, switch and start!

It's lame, but it's the only way we'll ever get a game. Sorry to those we've done this to, haha.
