Cryptic! Heed this!

Please remove the requirement for 5v5 to launch a private PvP game.
Me and many people in my fleet would like to do be able to play Duels, 2v2, 3v3 or 4v4, or even special scenarios like 2v3 or 1v2.

SO PLEASE CRYPTIC!

Let us launch games WITHOUT FULL TEAMS!!!

ASAP! :(

    I suspect they won't do this for two reasons:
    • Exploitability for PvP rewards and quest credit (if private games actually give credit... never tried)
    • Inefficient use of instance server resources

    Well having forced 5v5 now basicly makes the whole feature 90% useless.
    Nobody ever uses it.
    Plus it really isnt worth it as an exploit, as you would still have to play a full game, and in normal PvP both winners and loosers get rewards.

    thats bull. the servers are empty. who gives a fraks TRIBBLE if instances get populated with 2-6 players. they should have enough free space to give every single player an instance of his own. seriously how many of us are left in this game? 5000? i dont know but it wont be a hell of a lot more imo

    I'm sure they've lowered the amount of network bandwidth and server hardware in the data center accordingly. I can't imagine any company in any financial state keeping large amounts of excess capacity on hand just for a rainy day.

    Well i got a chance to talk to one of the Devs last night, and he said this is something they are lookin into but "tricky" to do.

    So heres hoping that they manage to pull through! :D

    It would be pretty nice to see a lower minimum somehow worked into the queue system. Help us get into games faster.

    I absolutely support this.

    Allow us to launch private pvp matches without full team requirements!

    Heck, I do not care if I get credits/merits for that! Simply make such non 5v5 private games give no merits/credits/whatever. We just want to play/test.


    It is just wrong that we have to go to Ker'rat for private 1 vs 1 matches or testing on Tribble.
