Pardon our dust everyone!
Things might get a little spicy as US gets online but we've been up since 4am working on these issues and are working as fast as possible to keep things smooth!
Congrats and good luck! Any chance we get bigger party sizes in the future? Thanks!
hi! So we have to be careful because a) we don't want parties pub-stomping matchmaking, and b) large parties can grief and do all sorts of things we don't expect (blocking finish lines etc.) It's frustrating but with this type of thing you really have to think of the worst case scenario and work backwards from there.
That said, I could see us upping the party size slightly one day. It's probably not our highest priority feature but it's definitely something we'll be looking into once launch settles down!
Couldn't you solve that by letting us create custom games? Let's say we're a party of 20, just let us create a custom game and we'll run that risk. Loving the game btw! Cheers
During development we were worried about custom games because of how it can split the playerbase. If we don't have enough players in the main queue then the game will suffer. Hopefully the interest over the past few weeks means that shouldn't be so much of a worry going forward!
