Why would you start a round with uneven number of players?

To the developers, why would you start a round when all three teams DO NOT have the same number of players? often a team or two will not get their 4th player and the remaining team having 4 players just steamrolls them.

Grimlok_S✭✭✭✭✭I see 2v3v4 fairly often. It's frustrating.
Things usually even out 3v3v4 by the 4 minute mark, with full teams by the 6 minute mark.
Those first few minutes can decide the game, though. I'd rather wait for a full lobby than start short-handed against prepared teams.Light Attack Hero

Every alternate BG, i see 1 or 2 teams with less players till the end. They never get their 3rd or 4th player.1 -

✭✭✭I see that too. I also see people decline BGs a lot so the queue doesn’t start.
Is this a player or game issue?Looking for any guildies I used to play with:
Havoc Warhammer - Alair
LoC EQ2 - Mayi and Iskiab
Condemned and Tabula Rasa - Rift - Iskiab
Or anyone else I used to play games with in guilds I’ve forgotten0 -

✭It's an issue on Xbox NA, but not all the time. Frankly, I prefer matches to start sooner and just deal with having uneven teams sometimes over having to wait longer.
I've been in plenty of games where we start short-handed, fill up after a few minutes, and wind up winning. The advantage is not insurmountable.“There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.”2 -

Only if the queue actually fills the 4th player slot. This does not happen most of the times. 4th slot remains empty till the end. This is a bad game design.5 -
techprince✭✭✭✭✭How BS is this, 3 vs 4 vs 4 in Capture the Relic. Do you really expect to defend and capture against 2 teams with 3 people? 4th player joined when score was 400-100-0. This is fked up.
Battlegrounds is 4 vs 4 vs 4. Untill you get 12 players, round should not start. Period.Edited by techprince on April 12, 2019 9:12PM5 -
ruikkarikun✭✭✭✭✭Hello. Damn you understand this only now?:)
Very often I have matches when my team have -1 player. As a result is 3 vs 4 vs 4.
But hey, look ppl don't care and zos too.0 -

✭✭✭Sometimes I stay and hope we get a full team, sometimes I take the quitter penalty out of spite and go do something else. I didn't buy Morrowind for 2v3v4 content.
The timer should not begin until it's 12 players.
Imagine if dungeon finder loaded you in with only 2 total players and began the dungeon on a timer. Is it worth the effort to make the broken thing "work"?

✭because they don't care. you need to queue to login then press f button about an hour to get into a broken lobby. this game is a bad joke.2 -
Iskiab✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭I don’t like being short handed all game either. One thing I’ve noticed that’s odd is when people leave a BG they get replaced very quickly, usually with a better player. Makes me think there are people available but for some reason they aren’t being put in the game.
I think every time someone’s left a BG I was in we’ve ended up winning too. I think it pulls players from higher MMR or something.Looking for any guildies I used to play with:

I always ask, "If the queue pop succeeded with 12 players accepting it, why is the match starting with 3 out of 4 players?!"PC-NA3 -
ThanatosXR✭✭✭Only time were I cannot believe im saying this but CoD does it best, there shouldnt be a deserter penalty at all, the game just counts as a loss, match bonus/daily xp forfit, we also need it changed to score based to take into account healing, tactical, team based play instead of just K/D/Assists. Add CoD scoring, game setup with Halo medals and announcer
