Make it so officer that scan have to select 10 people intended for WS. Before the scan can start all 10 players have to check Ready!

It's intended for 10 Vs 10 active. Not corp Vs corp that are able.

I certainly agree 👍

Also each participant has to complete a successful captcha challenge to be eligible each time.

You joke but also yeah maybe…

A lot of corps send incomplete teams. If all participants are required to show they are active, some would make alts to replace dead accounts. Some would suffer in silence and not play. 😄

we would need to bring back 5v5, because of how many corps bring only a couple active players.

That's just silly. And solvable by setting a penalty for loss. Easy.

Needs to happen. Too many Corps are fielding incomplete teams and you see WS’s with 5 V 7 and the like.

What about random players with scanner on?

#

Haha.. instead of putting corp member/ make an option for random player, these players are selected out of the pool of open scanners. I could see some issues with this I guess but could force not same teams if your corp members are afk and have scanner on, enemy team is obvious why.

#

Some how you could make a thing that detects if the player has recently left the corps (make it so we don't know how long that detect is)

#

Ah art boost I guess you gotta leave corp 😂

#

Or could some how give a personal reward for that, just because of afk reasons

#

Defeats the corp part there but.. you win some you loose some

#

Red star does this already pretty much except you will randomly match with corp members, which I actually wonder if this is on purpose. Obviously we scanned same time but didn't know

#

Which another thing, Randoms would need to be checked for activity in matchmaking and while it is searching you could get an invite to accept that way you are "ready" and the system invites next player if you decline would need a timeout on invites

#

FO and officers of scanning ws could get a mailbox ping about this player is ready, you could add as friend to make sure they are I guess seams like to much 😂

There's already a penalty for no show, each missing player subtracts 4 pts worth of exp on a loss

#

The real solution is to bring back credit and hydro rewards

#

Then you'll corps full of mercs and make ws grey again

#

Alternatively easier access to alts would make filling ws easier

#

Especially for 🤮 apple users

Another option is a different reward system within it. Like White Star objectives similar to our personal objectives. That way there is the cred reward but you have to actually participate to get it.. which is similar to the old reward. But we see it taking place

#

The old reward was all loss farming? I'd assume one reason to remove that. With personal based white star objectives.. that would maybe mean less farming on that specifically unless people really just do objectives and leave white star?

#

That's why old score is better because you have to participate the whole match in order to be rewarded.

Yes I get the fact that a random player could join and not play at all, but at least they joined 😭😂

#

This even goes into the lore of the game, some corps are so greedy they decided to work together with some aspects meaning randomly joining against a rival corppapa_andreas

I know you will have that in every mobile game

#

That does have clans/corps whatever it's called
