Chose DM-uptown and wait
???
Profit?

My own opinion, siege or tdm, ma, shouldn't start if you have <8 players in lobby (not ready players, I mean, but 8 ppl for play), because all matches which start like 2vs3, etc. Is always have high difference in skill, and most of times one team just raped, especially if it some sort of nubs+pro in one team.
Such matches only lead you to negative emotions, rage, and hating the game. Because it really sux.

5vs6 is sux too, but it is less .noticeable, due the everyone shoot in everyone.

Actually, I dream about 5vs5 servers and 3vs3 max players servers, but I think, one of the team will sux so much (very often), without hard mmr restrictions, and only if you can start match if you have full lobby of players (I mean 6 or 10 ppl)
Will be also great to punish leavers for mode like this.

I play 1vs1 siege, 1vs2 ma, etc. I never saw things worse than this in hawken (hmm...maybe 36M :P), only DM can be good with 2 ppl.

Yeah ideally you wouldn't start a match with < 8 players, but unfortunately due to player base right now thats a far off dream atm.  I agree w Missouri, since I play at less popular hours (mid-day) I often find myself in a TDM lobby with one other person, waiting 10 minutes for another person to join, sit around for 5 more minutes, then someone leaves because we can't start a match.  It's hard to get over the 2 person TDM empty lobby hump.  

 

I'd rather play an imbalanced 2v1 and practice than sit staring at my screen.  You can't even tweak your mech loadouts while waiting anymore, so I litereally just sit at my computer reading a book waiting for a match that never happens.  I dont think it was like this pre-patch, but maybe I'm wrong since population felt a bit more dense back then as well.

This is why devs should increase HC earning for pvp modes x2.

Ha!

You think it's hard to get over the 2 person TDM lobby hump?  Try getting a Siege or, god forbid, Missile Assault match going.  "Impossibru!"


To be serious for a moment this is just a joke

Are you talking about PC servers?
Everyone looks to the past as the golden times, a place to return to in our dreams...

You can look to the golden years in your dreams but really it is now a well oiled hand and a steady axe that reflects the new hwken.

 

So let the matches start with only one and play with yourself ;)

 

Actually matches should always start with an even amount of pilots, and  2 added at a time from the queue
