You’re not reading what I’m writing I don’t think. I never said solo players should be unable to play PvP, I said the aggression based algorithm should differentiate based on party size. I shouldn’t have 1 score, I should have 3 (solo, duo, trio).
That allows anyone to play how they like, but cuts the unintelligent sorting down to behavioral changes instead of behavioral changes AND party size changes.
OK, i agree that party size should count on the decision but i also understand that this is suppose to evaluate the aggressiveness of a player. Since you play very differently solo and trio you probably assume everybody does.
There is some truth IMO on saying that many aggressive players will be just the same irrelevant of party size. The more chill solo is something that appeared organically because people wanted at least one safe space. But it’s not really a rule or anything official. I personally wish I could play trios in a more peaceful manner so I agree the change you suggest might help. But also people that are aggressive will often be on any modes anyway. I find hard to believe the extract campers in trios would suddenly be any different when they play solo…
Also in trios the matchmaking has to assess the aggressiveness of three players and find and adequate lobby with other similarly aggressive teams. So it’s not as simple as having three hidden MMR aggressiveness because I think people tend to naturally be more aggressive in groups. So a group of mildly aggressive players can be a very aggressive group when they free loadout on stella montis ;)
I disagree.
Solo players should be able to play PvP if they wish to do so.
That system naturally match PvP vs PvP and PvE vs PvE.
It lets anyone play any mode the way they want to*.
*: assuming you are patient enough for the matchmaker to adjust
