Why only 3 casuals per day?

[maru]

Is there a legitimate reason for this, or is it just completely arbitrary?

The logic they cited behind this limitation was that Casual is not meant to be a replacement for regular battle royale mode. This quoted from patch notes 13.2 when Casual mode was first introduced.

Casual Mode is a way for players to practice and have fun in a less intense environment than standard Battle Royale Matches.

You can play up to 3 matches per day in Solo, Duo, or Squads and will drop into Erangel with a maximum of 12 players per match, with bots filling the remaining space.

Whether you’re looking to warm up or just let of some steam in a more relaxed environment, Casual Mode is there to help!

Not being a replacement is not a logical reason to artificially like the number of matches per day.

I assumed it's to limit players from farming casual to boost their K/D ratio.

that's one of the reasons among splitting the queues for normal/ranked/casual. casual wins count on your normal record too

In my experience the North America servers tend to have less human players these days/nights. Its not uncommon to see 40 to 60 human players queue up for a standard match and see the bot count filling the remaining slots.

In Casual matches I've observed less than twelve human players most times. It would not surprise me if they removed the Casual match option from some regions like they did with other features i.e map selection. In any case Casual matches were never meant to be a replacement to standard BR mode. It's a valid reason to limit it. Especially in regions with far less human players per match. Their patch notes clearly state "Casual Mode is a way for players to practice and have fun in a less intense environment than standard Battle Royale Matches.". I understand some people want the three match limit raised or removed but at which point when does Casual stop being Casual and starts to replace standard matches? It kind of defeats the purpose of it being called CASUAL and the whole reason for it being a casual mode.

Now don't get me wrong, I enjoy casual matches too, but peeps got to accept this mode is not meant to replace standard matches.

It would be nice to see Krafton increase the player count in casuals from 12 to 16 and the amount of games increased from 3 to 4 or even 5 per day.

I know some players that only play casuals because they are new, not overly competitive, have limited time to game online, prefer the bot target practice and are happy to see less cheaters. It's also a fairly chill way to progress in the game.

As for the concern of players using casuals to boost K/D ratio, that's an easy fix. Just have only the human player kills be recorded. Cheers

The simple truth is: they do it for no other reason than to annoy you. -- This has also been confirmed by a former employee

There is no, no, really no good reason for limiting games that everybody likes. In fact, many other player would play more often or come back here and play. EVERY OTHER GAME SUPPORTS ENDLESS BOT/AI GAMES YOU CAN PLAY.
It is very said but - people will contiune to go. I unsed to have over 80 ppl from my friendslist who play it this game. meanwhil its just 4 left.
It will take long time until the devs stop annoying us for no reason and wake up. sad. very said.
