I dont know exactly how the mechanics work now but its bad( i found the mechanics, when the game first starts and u auto join a squad once that squad is filled it automatically locks until the squad lesder unlocks it ). you get into game that already started you have literally 1-2 squads u can pick from the rest are locked with like 3-4 players in them, i promise you 99% of the time they dont even realized its locked.

its the not the biggest deal honestly not even a problem, it can just get annoying trying to join ur friends game in progress and every squad is locked. Not even saying get rid of them but at least make the icons bigger, something to give them an indication their squad is locked

thorny moss
#

Why not create a new squad with your friends then?

#

I always did that and never had a problem with locked squads

sonic tide
#

thats why im sayin its not the biggest deal

#

can just be a tad annoying, cuz even so 99% time i go into chat and tell everybody to unlock the squad they unlock them

thorny moss
#

and when you join late its not a big deal

#

there are vehicles on spawn so you wont have to run

sonic tide
# thorny moss its how everybody starts...
  1. when you JOIN a friends game in progress
  2. yes its not a big deal but running from spawn all the way to the objective when i couldve just joined a squad with 4 people instead of wasting 2-3 minutes of my life running
  3. not everybody plays conquest 24/7 i dont play conquest at all so i dont use vehicles
thorny moss
#

you dont run

#

there are countless vehicles on spawn that nobody uses

sonic tide
#

ur not even reading everything i say

thorny moss
#

I dont see a fix to that problem at all

sonic tide
#

okay bud 😂

#

you clearly have no idea what ur talking about but alright

thorny moss
#

making the lock icon bigger wont do anything in my opinion

thorny moss
#

I just dont see a solution to your problem

sonic tide
#

its something to give notice that their squad is locked

thorny moss
#

?

#

I think people do realise that their squad is locked

#

you have to manually lock them

sonic tide
#

the only indication rn that ur squad is locked is some little red icon on the top of their squad page

thorny moss
#

yeah

#

but you have to manually lock them

sonic tide
#

idk bout that one

thorny moss
#

you cant accidentally lock a squad

sonic tide
#

i remember hearing different, that the game locks squads when u join or something like that

thorny moss
#

wrong game

#

you have to manually close a squad in this game

sonic tide
#

then u have to manually unlock them

#

thats why most people dont realize its locked

thorny moss
#

I dont think that thats how it works

#

never really seen it work like that too

sonic tide
#

it is

thorny moss
#

yeah but still

#

a squadlock icon bigger by 2 pixels wont change a thing

#

I dont even look in what team I am when I join

#

if I die

#

I press spawn and play

#

no one really looks at anything else

#

and you can still make a new squad with your friends

#

and that one time where you have to run for a while

#

wont hurt you that much I think ;)

sonic tide
# thorny moss a squadlock icon bigger by 2 pixels wont change a thing

1.obviously, but giving something is better then giving nothing as an example

  1. we play very differently, u dont mind running for 2-3 minutes i absolutely despise as do many others (its mostly conquest that u do that tho)

  2. yes u can make a new squad but like how i said i dont want to have to run all the way from spawn in the middle of the match, and if die i have to do it again (when i coulda just joined a squad) instead of having people on my squad to sorta circumvent that. i literally have to wait until my squad fills up or i gotta sit there and wait for my friend to tell the squad leader to unlock his squad or join one of the few squads that are unlocked

  3. again like how i said most people dont even realize that their squad is locked so

thorny moss
#

everytime I join a game

#

I automatically join a team

#

and they almost always are in a fight

sonic tide
#

just because u have never experienced it doesnt mean my experience is invalid

thorny moss
#

I didnt say its invalid

#

but I really dont think that it will change a thing if you made the squad lock icon a bit bigger

#

because no one ever looks at that squad lock thing

#

they die and respawn

sonic tide
sonic tide
thorny moss
#

we just want to play

#

we die

#

and respawn

#

thats how 80% of the community plays it

sonic tide
#

exactly

#

thats why they dont notice that its LOCKED

thorny moss
#

and a button

#

2 pixels bigger

#

wont change a thing

sonic tide
#

thats why they dont notcie its LOCKED

#

bro u are not even reading what im saying

thorny moss
#

I am

thorny moss
#

but the lock button

sonic tide
#

^

thorny moss
#

is not where the respawn button is

thorny moss
#

and for it to be noticable

#

it would have to be huge

#

which the devs wont do

sonic tide
#

or maybe put it in a different spot, or just dont auto lock squads when the squads get filled up in the beginning of the game

sonic tide
#

anything to make it more known that its locked

#

cuz all we have rn is some tiny little icon that is red

thorny moss
#

not what you have been saying all the time

#

and spamming wont do a thing

sonic tide
thorny moss
#

what?

sonic tide
#

nothing ur just a special person

#

your eyes see whT they want to see

thorny moss
#

nice Fix Squad Locking you are talking about here

#

wanna be warned the third time?

sonic tide
#

go ahead, i didnt say anything bad i just said ur special

#

tf

#

ur just not even reading my statements

thorny moss
#

Creates a thread, talks about something, someone disagrees, decides to spam and call someone special

thorny moss
sonic tide
thorny moss
#

and I told you that that example wont do anything

#

like 200 times

sonic tide
sonic tide
#

which is the point i have been making this entire time

#

and ur like “ no the icon being bigger wont help “

#

like i know that but its a start

thorny moss
#

bro that thing wasnt edited like that when I started talking

#

it was 1 sentence

sonic tide
#

i edited right after u posted ur first reply

thorny moss
#

yeah

#

and then you edited it 1 more time

#

which I havent noticed

sonic tide
#

i didnt

thorny moss
#

u sure about that?

sonic tide
#

the last sentence has always been there since the start

#

anywaus

thorny moss
#

cuz I dont remember it being that long

sonic tide
#

memory is a very faulty thing to go off of

thorny moss
#

say what you want

#

It wasnt like that at all

sonic tide
#

i have, but you clearly ignore it

thorny moss
#

its edited. It wasnt like that from the beginning

sonic tide
#

whatever u say man, and yes the squads do lock when they auto fill and get a full squad in the beginning

thorny moss
#

yeah you said that already

sonic tide
#

and u said thats not how it works

thorny moss
#

"yeah but still"

#

I agreed on it

sonic tide
#

why are u even arguing about here ?

thorny moss
soft totem
#

you dont

sonic tide
thorny moss
#

I know my god

thorny moss
sonic tide
#

nevermind

#

have a good day

thorny moss
#

I literally said that I agreed to it

sonic tide
#

so why are u trying to argue ?

thorny moss
sonic tide
thorny moss
#

lmao

sonic tide
#

okay

#

makes alot of sense

thorny moss
#

I agree that the squad autolocks

sonic tide
#

but u dont agree with my feedback

thorny moss
#

I said x to your whole feedback

thorny moss
sonic tide
#

this is like arguing with a wall

#

jesus christ

thorny moss
#

...

sonic tide
#

what dont u agree about it

thorny moss
#

I said changing the button wont do a thing. You edit the thread, and blame it on me

sonic tide
#

idc what was edited

#

what dont u agree about the feedback

thorny moss
#

I dont think it has to be fixed

#

because there is no real fix to it

#

people will lock their squads even if you like it or not

sonic tide
#

its fixing the squad lock feature that happens in the beginning of the game

thorny moss
#

your feedback is about making it more visible

thorny moss
#

or noticeable

#

for other players

#

and I dont agree with that

sonic tide
thorny moss
#

because that wont do anything

#

"its like arguing with a wall"

#

"jesus christ"

#

formulate your feedback better

#

and dont edit it while you discuss it with someone

sonic tide
# thorny moss formulate your feedback better
  1. my feedback has been the same the only thing i have added was the squad locking mechanic itself,

  2. the only thing u have edited was adding the squad mechanics and fixing my grammatical mistakes

sonic tide
thorny moss
#

its not just plain old dumb

sonic tide
#

it is

thorny moss
#

people in this game die

#

and respawn

#

they dont look at the teams

#

nor if their squad is locked

sonic tide
#

they will eventually notice that one icon was bigger then last time

#

or one icon was moved all together

thorny moss
#

I dont have a lot of say about the community since I have only played in 1 playtest

#

but in that one playtest

#

no one cared about the teams and locks

#

no

#

one

sonic tide
#

u literally have no idea what u are talking about

thorny moss
#

I played the playtest

sonic tide
#

yes

thorny moss
#

and I can state my opinion

#

on why its either good or bad

sonic tide
#

not if you dont know what u are talking about

thorny moss
#

I know what I am talking about

sonic tide
#

u dont

#

if u only played 1 test

thorny moss
#

and?

#

I can still have a valid opinion

sonic tide
thorny moss
#

it is a good one

sonic tide
#

its not

thorny moss
#

Making the lock icon bigger wont do anything

sonic tide
#

ur whole opinion is u dont think making the icon bigger will improve it

#

which it will

thorny moss
#

thats my opinion

sonic tide
#

cuz when u repeatedly look at the same screen over and over again, when a thing is changed you will notice it. especially when that THING is the only red thing on ur screen at the moment

thorny moss
#

it wont change red out of nowhere

#

is it what you ment?

sonic tide
#

what????

thorny moss
#

Because if someone plays and respawns immediately

#

they wont pay attention to it

#

maybe for the first time it has gotten bigger

#

or changed colors

#

but after a few hours they will forget about it again

#

people dont take this game seriously

#

and you cant change that

#

its ment to be locked when its supposed to be locked

#

and unlocked when its supposed to be unlocked

#

but no one cares about that

#

people just want to spawn and shoot

#

and in my opinion

#

changing the squadlock icon to a red color

#

and making it a bit bigger

#

wont change a thing

green ledge
#

dude

#

the squad lock is already red...

thorny moss
#

well then

#

and people still dont see it

green ledge
#

... so lets fix squad locking

thorny moss
#

how do you want to do that

green ledge
#

i agree with this feedback 👍

#

By making it so squads dont autolock

#

based on party

thorny moss
#

thats a good solution

green ledge
#

right...

#

thats what @sonic tide has been saying

#

for the past

#

god knows how long now

#

lmfao

thorny moss
#

he has been talking

#

about making the icon bigger

#

since the beginning

#

if he wasnt I would have agreed and left already

green ledge
#

making the squad lock more noticible could be a potential solution

thorny moss
#

I dont think it will work though

green ledge
#

long run- making it so squads dont autolock basesd on steam party is the better move

thorny moss
#

yes

green ledge
#

dope

#

so you agree w the "fix squad locking"

#

then why X?

#

lol

thorny moss
#

because his feedback was formulated completely differently

green ledge
#

hm

thorny moss
#

when I put the x

cosmic bay
thorny moss
#

not about fixing the autolock

green ledge
#

i think yall r just going in circles lmaoo

#

agreeing on the same thing

#

but just different ways

thorny moss
#

nah I agree with your thing

sonic tide
# thorny moss Because if someone plays and respawns immediately
  1. it takes at least like 5-10 seconds to spawn on somebody if u arent just spamming on random people in ur squad so u will notice especially if u have been playing every playtest for the past couple months like i have

  2. people wont forget because youll be looking at it constantly when u respawn

  3. u have played 1 playtest u literally have no idea what this communitu is like, people do take this game seriously their is already a semi comp scene behind it and the game is not even out

  4. the squad is locking when the squad fills up in the beginning of the game, meaning if somebody decided to leave ur squad the squad stays locked until the squad leader manually unlocks it. which they wont notice, or wont even know if they are new

  5. yes people want to spawn and shoot, so when u have to create ur own squad and run all the way from spawn that is boring asf and nobody wants to do that when u could have just joined a squad and do it

sonic tide
thorny moss
#

So you still think my opinion is invalid

sonic tide
#

my feedback title is fixing the fucking squad lock

#

jesus christ

thorny moss
#

your feedback

#

like 5 minutes ago

#

and you saying I dont have a valid opinion is nonsense

sonic tide
#

because ur opinion is literally invalid

thorny moss
#

I have disagreed on the "making it bigger and more noticeable"

sonic tide
#

u agree with what i said

#

but then argue with me

#

literally make no sense

thorny moss
#

u are the one arguing with me

#

I am just stating my opinion

#

and you are the one discussing about it non stop

loud hornet
#

@thorny moss why are you so against QoL?

thorny moss
#

for the past 30 minutes

thorny moss
#

yeah

#

and I agreed on the autolock fix

sonic tide
#

this dude literally has no idea what he is even saying @loud hornet

#

he has played 1 playtest

#

and understands the community

#

and he states nobody takes the game seriously 😂

loud hornet
thorny moss
#

yall are pointless

#

I am agreeing to one thing

loud hornet
thorny moss
#

and disagreeing with the other

#

whats the problem

sonic tide
#

u disagree with a point that im nit even making

thorny moss
sonic tide
#

obviously making it bigger wont be the end all be all

thorny moss
#

and now you changed it

torn stone
thorny moss
#

and now I agree on it

#

so whats the problem

loud hornet
#

Imagine removing something pointless and annoying from the game.
Nah, gotta make it as inconvenient as possible

sonic tide
# thorny moss

the only thing i have added was the mechanics behind the squad locking

thorny moss
#

there is no mention of autolock fix

#

that is what I agree with

#

I dont agree that making it bigger will solve the problem

#

Now that you changed the Feedback

#

I agree with it

thorny moss
#

so whats the problem now

thorny moss
#

lmao

#

I literally agree with your feedback

#

because you changed it

#

whats

#

your

#

problem

#

???

#

its not an argument its the truth

#

I didnt agree with your feedback because it was focused on making it more noticable.

sonic tide
#

i have no problem, ur just making it seem like i completely revised my feedback when all i added was rhe mechanics behind squad locking, and the point about making it bigger

thorny moss
#

Now I agree with it because its focused on the Autolock thing

sonic tide
#

cuz i felt like if iwas going to give feedback i should at least give an example on how it can be improved

thorny moss
#

with making it bigger and more noticable

#

and I did not agree with taht

#

20 minutes ago

#

now you changed it

#

and I agree with it

sonic tide
#

idek how u couldnt agree with it

#

like its literally making something more noticeable

thorny moss
#

because it wouldnt change much in my opinion

sonic tide
#

on a spawn screen

#

to help u oit

#

idc

#

u agree with me now

thorny moss
#

and I didnt agree with it because it wouldnt change solve the problem

sonic tide
#

so i won this argument

#

and you lost

thorny moss
#

????

thorny moss
#

you have been bragging about my opinion not being valid

#

and now its valid because I am on your side?

sonic tide
#

i never said it was valid

#

i just said i won the argument

#

crazy how everybody that sees this has the same stance as me

thorny moss
#

u are at the beginning of the thread

thorny moss
sonic tide
#

u lost

#

i won

thorny moss
#

the post was changed

#

and my opinion changed too

#

everything is solved imo

sonic tide
#

it wasnt @rancid crag as u can see i only added the mechanics behind squad locking because i had gotten confirmation behind it. and i didnt want to say something initially that might not be true, and the only other thing i added was examples on how u could improve it

#

so this guy clearly has no idea what hes talking about

#

and i won

thorny moss
#

lmao

thorny moss
#

childish behaviour

#

fr

sonic tide
#

id rather be a child then lose

thorny moss
#

I changed my point of view

sonic tide
#

yeah

#

u disagreed

#

then i made u agree

#

so u lost

thorny moss
#

lmao

#

a different guy

#

that made you change the feedback again

sonic tide
#

he literally stated the same thing i stated

thorny moss
#

but nevermind

sonic tide
#

guess what

#

u still lost

thorny moss
#

Lmao

thorny moss
#

2 warning no wonder

#

xDD

sonic tide
#

lmfao

sonic tide
#

he’s obsessed with me

inland raven
#

auto locking squads is stupid and I'm not quite sure what purpose it serves

sonic tide
#

again

#

had to remind you
