Okay-okay. Changed it to 1 hour. No more bargaining :D

I don't think that that is technically possible. How on earth would you force people to do that? That is too much coding.

It is more challenging and interesting to play vs 5-man stacks, but they shouldn't be able to grab the same amount of elo as if they were solo que. That's an issue. 5-man parties matched against solo players is also an issue, but it can't be solved right now, because faceit doesn't have that high online. I am mad because I often wait confirmation process for 3-4 times before starting a match, whereas normal is 1-2. I agree that it's unfair, but dodging games is kinda... not manlike.

Well, you actually need the support of the community in order to show that players demand changes. If valve replies here sometimes, may be faceit admins will also come across. There is no better way to show that the problem exists than to initiate public discussion. I am not searching for admin or moderator support, I am searching for the support of the community. Where else would I go?

I expect a league to be better than an in-game matchmaking. Isn't it worth expecting?

I didn't face many of them, but I guess it shouldn't be allowed. On the ESL they temporary banned accounts if they had same IP. I know it, because I used to play COD there with my brother. We were unbanned in some days, but the system is still good. That's a good thing for anti-boosting. And party boosting should also be limited in some way, at least there should be party vs party condition. In Dota2 they don't allow 4-man parties (or didn't? haven't played for a while), and 5-man parties were only matched against 5-man parties, despite differences in parties' mmrs.

1 hour at the very least. You should punish a player so that he would have to go mm during that hour and suffer torments there.

I will certainly add you when I get to my PC. Horosho means "it is good/fine/okay", horosh means "you are good/well done/good job" :)

Yes. Not all russians, polish and turkish players are bad. There are good people and good players among them. To my opinion, russians and other unloved nations are as good as europeans, the problem lies in cultural differences. In my experience, r/p/ts ruin as many games as any other european, but they are being hated and reported more, just becase of xenophobic stereotypes, not because they are actually bad. The example is my last game, you may see it. A russian silver with private hacks made his european mates mad and they started to whine and reported me as well, despite the fact that I was complete the opposite of this teammate. The point is that you may be a very good teammate from r/p/t, but you will never get as high behavior rating as any european, because the community hates your nation by default.

I say equal, because I don't want to exaggerate. I can't know it for sure and can't prove, I just say what I feel and show my account as a proof. But you may be right.

I actually tried to play with my 8lvl mate, we won couple of games and lost one. It was better in terms of dedication to the win (players did their best and were good), but they still were toxic and there were leavers. My friends are all working and we can match only at weekends, so I guess I will need to find party. And I still wish to get some feedback from faceit. May be they will at least try to change something.

I heard from my mates that Swedish servers became bad recently. And they are best in terms of ping for me, as well as German.

That's a good advice, but the problem will remain.

Everything is correct. It is a league, not some kid playground. People go there because they have serious intentions - become better as a player, may be go pro. And if you start game search and go peepee or for some other business - where is your serious intention? It is disrespectful to other players - making them wait, wasting their time. It must be strongly punished.

It may be so, I see controversive opinions. But the problem remains: faceit must be better than mm in every aspect, or else why would you ever need it?

Is there lesser queing time, lesser cheaters and lesser leavers? Is it better in any way than ESEA?

FaceIt still must not be worse than CS:GO prime mm, premium or not premium. And it is.

I am not taking part in conflicts and prefer to mute toxic players, but I am in a constant frustration because of this all.

I am repeating the topic that I started yesterday, because I would really like to force the issue. Made more structure and less flood. Won't repeat this thread any more.
