Does anyone know anything about how the squads will work? For example could 3 people start a group and get a 4th in mm. I know there are very few details out there so far.

External link →In Alpha Hunters you can queue with one other player (2 players total in a team). If you queue solo, you'll get a partner via matchmaking that's in your skill range.
In Heart of the Hives and Harvester Command, you can queue with up to 4 players. You'll always get players from matchmaking added to create a full 4 player roster. If you queue solo, matchmaking adds 3. If you queue with a friend, matchmaking adds 2. If you queue with 3, matchmaking adds 1. If you queue with 4, you're good to go!
Final note, our matchmaking system prioritizes putting players of similar team sizes against each other. So a 4 stack will face 4 stacks, trios + 1 will face other trios +1, and so on.

It's not set as a hard limit, but putting a 4 stack against any other group composition is a last resort. It's fairly easy for us to configure on the fly and we'll be monitoring matchmaking data at launch to dial it in.
