Rip casual (or quickmatch as they call it now)

[Papa Painbringer]

Imagine spending 15 minutes on queue just to join and ongoing favela and defend for 2 rows before the game ends. At first I was wondering why was the casual queue time so high, but then I realized this AA-DD plus map rotation completely killed casual. No wonder no one is playing it now. Might as well remove it if you're going to keep making it like ranked. We already have an unranked playlist, no need to make casual more ranked alike. Leave as it is, casual and quick.

I have to agree. Casual was not meant for this :/

I didn't mind joining ongoing matches until now, and I'm not mad about joining an ongoing game, but rather the fact you might end up defending 7 times in a row (happened already) due to AA-DD

Ubisoft are not smart. They've repeatedly shown this time after time.

They really need to revert the changes they made to casual. It was the only gamemode I actually enjoyed in this game. I dislike op banning, I dislike only being able to play bomb, I want to be able to use all the content in the game and casual was the only mode that was able to be done in.

I think map rotation is good to not overwhelm new players

I dont mind being put into an ongoing match, but if its 0-2 when you join, then theres probably a reason people are leaving. Not to mention youre pretty likely to play one round after a long wait time.

But that's why there's a newcomer a list. Why are they making changes to casual when there are queues specifically for those purposes.

My opinion is revert. Quick match is terrible and that seems to be the popular opinion. Thanks for reading this Morning if you do.

Why would your queue take 15 minutes? I've literally never waited more than 1 minute. Cancel queue if 1 minute has gone by then queue again.
