Minimum players to start a game increased back to 12!

Chad please read this and acknowledge this. I think everyone will agree. That if you guys make the waiting time in the lobby from 2.5 minutes, to 1 minute. Everyone would be pleased. It's just a pain waiting for the games to start. And all you see in chat is 123 for team and team please I heater. It's a pain to wait and knowing theirs going to be teams everywhere. It would be so much better if you guys would put the timer to 1 minute.

I think when there are 24 people in a game it should immediately bring time down to 45 secs. I hate waiting

Our goal is to make a system to merge lobbies that don't have enough players on if the timer runs out with not enough players.

I remember when lobbies used to last 5 minutes. So what we have now is not that bad. An extra 1 and a half minutes of waiting is not a big deal. Another good thing about lobbies, which was pointed out when they were debating on whether to lower it from 5 minutes, is that the time you spend in lobby can be really good for you to cool down from the last game if you lost. This helps you not go into the next game raging.

Not sure why this was ever set below this number but we returned the minimum number of players to start a game back to 12 with the 24 slots. This should help prevent win boosting which isn't allowed. Our goal is to make a system to merge lobbies that don't have enough players on if the timer runs out with not enough players. More details soon once that feature releases.

So glad, I made a post about this a few days back. No more boosting yay ;D

I agree, i feel like the time in the lobby is fine how it is. Gives you time to get friends in the game with you also. 1 minute is just a bit too short.
