[Darkstar]

I dont really care about playing against my friends, I just want to play with my friends, as long as I get to be on their team thats fine.

And will there still be custom games?

[GoatLove]

i dont plan on playing ranked....i plan on playing customs with people.

[Hiphopgamer26]

you can play a party game with your friends in a custom match on GOW, but not with/or against them (unless you both get selected for the same game)

Exactly...I think you guys are missing the point here...

NO RANKED MATCHES WITH YOUR FRIENDS ON YOUR TEAM.

In other words, all ranked matches are going to be played with randoms...good luck with that...seeing as we all know how perfected the "Tru Skill" system is...

I dont see how this is gonna minimize cheating....

Now instead of having 4 cheaters get together in one party.....now there is gonna be 4 cheaters cheat in four parties.

LMFAO....amazing point....just amazing yea ur right tho it is going to make cheating even more

Still not sure if I consider this a bad thing.

Would it be a more accurate rating of your skill if you are able to instantly form a cohesive tactical unit with a number of randoms as opposed to a team you've practiced and developed tactics with?

On the flipside, it could also more accurately reflect your expertise if you are able to develop those strategies as a team and impliment them against any variety of opponents successfully.

Most likely it will lower the intensity of ranked games as people won't be able to use complex tactics that require higher degrees of teamwork. It will also prevent teams from obtaining padded stats by facing rag tag teams of randoms.

I pretty much stick to player matches anyway, so I guess it doesn't matter much to me.

Of concern to me though, if the system and lag are the same as SR, from what I've seen, that's going to be rotten. *crosses fingers*

Like some other people said GoW will most liekly turn into a game like halo where people just stop playing ranked matches. I agree with their decision to do this, it should prevent cheating and make your rank actually mean something more to you.
