The minimum of 12 players...

[rululi487]

Hi,
I play much on the Quarter Quell servers.
Recently, I saw the games now need 12 players to start the game, now because there aren't very much players online, its takes a really long time to get enough players to start the game.
I wanted to ask you if the minimum amount of players at the Quarter Quell can be set back to 6 players.

Thanks in advance.

This could happen but I think that all servers when they don't get 12 players the timer could be reset to 30 seconds until it fills up. This could save a lot of time instead of needing to wait the entire lobby time.

Yes but still, that would take longer than if it would be set back to 6 players

I agree. Quarter Quell sometimes seems to never fill up. I always want to play a game but whenever I try, the lobby never fills. ;-;

I don't often play Quarter Quell, but I have seen that it would be quite impossible for games to start with the change.
It does apply in a gamemode such as Regular SG, but in Quarter Quell, where there is a smaller player base, it would make sense to perhaps change the minimum players to six, where more games could be played.

I agree. Maybe I can add this to the Quarter Quell suggestions forums. I don't think making it back to 6 is a good idea because it is just too easy. I am thinking 8-10 players required. I decided 9.

This makes sense - Quarter Quell should pose the same challenge if not more difficult than SG, and maybe should have a limit slightly higher than six.

I am going to see if I can add this to quarter quell suggestions.

Seeing as there is a thread exactly like this in QQ Suggestions, a mod can lock this thread.

Nice comments, I agree for the minimum of 9 players, otherwise it gets too easy indeed.

I think the requirement should go back to 6 also because 12 is too much for QQ. The highest I think should be 8.

I always play QQ i prefer it to the normal sg but now they have changed it to 12 players instead of 6 I can never get a game. I have read the comments above and I agree strongly that the limit should be put down to about 8 or 9 so it would be possible to get a game easier. Thx
