These threads are so tiresome. These teams are beating you because they are better players than you and your teammates. Its really that simple. But the nice thing about BGs is that unless it is deathmatch, a less-skilled team can still win against a skilled pre-made group by focusing the objectives. Land grab and Crazy King especially.
Your proposed solution of making separate queues for solo and group players would make it so that the group queue would just involve the same teams playing each other over and over. Every other PvP game on the planet allows you to queue in with friends. It has been that way since the beginning of time. Yeah there might be one playlist with a solo queue only feature but the majority of playlists allow people to play with their buddies.
I know this might be a weird concept to you but some of us have other people that we enjoy to play with sometimes and actually want to be able to find a match. I mostly queue up as a solo or duo in BGs and win plenty of matches. yeah i still lose plenty as well but when I lose i don't come to the forums to whine about how PvP matchmaking that has existed in this form for years is unfair.
I dont have time for that. I work 2 jobs and only have a few minutes maybe an hour every day to play. Also i deal with people all day so when i play i kinda want to just zone out and not talk to anyone. Being a paramedic in a high crime area will do that to you. Anyway the system is broken, i lose plenty games and am okay with that. But when i see the same 4 people game after game absolutely crushing it, it gets old. I'm not sticking around for that so i leave and get the abandonment penalty, swap characters and get into another game just to see the same 4 people doing the same ***. How is that fun? I refuse to be apart of it. Sometimes it works and you may run into just a group of 2 or so and its fine. But its the full 4 man pre mades that just make it so i dont even want to spend my lunch break playing this crap.
