Buzzbugs.1236 Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Hot take, I know. But it would make the PvP seasons more impactful (no queuing for conquest during off-season), and it may also improve the low population in ranked matches.

maxwelgm.4315 Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 I will play whichever mode has pips rewards tbh, would fully move to unranked if they took pips there - but this will probably not happen so yes I wouldn't also mind to put everyone from unranked in ranked. It would mean however only custom arenas and tournaments would support 5-people premade teams, which would surely stir up a lot of people (watch how quickly a few "top" players cry when removing DuoQ is suggested). having no unranked and two ranked queues (one working exactly as unranked does now, even including stronghold, leading to two separate leaderboards) with pip prizes might be one of the few feasible ideas to "remove" unranked.

But the problem is that it's pvp and nothing ever changes. This game mode is amber and cmc is the mosquito stuck inside it. But we don't even get dinosaurs. Just disappointment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azure The Heartless.3261 Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Forcing people to play game modes they don't want to play by removing the other game modes will not make them play the game mode. They'll just quit. There is a specific reason why ranked is languishing and unranked has all the population. Axing unranked will not address it. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flowki.7194 Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 (edited) Unranked; The twilight zone for the royal vampires, laying in wait for the moon to ascend the golden offpeaks of silvaria, signaling the beggining of the feast to end all feasts in this bronze age of kitten poor MMR. Some say vampires can't eat other vampires, I say, lets give it a try? After google translating the great wars 1 manuscripts that survived "the fire", there is hope: Vampires will only feed on other vampires as a last resort Edited April 7 by Flowki.7194 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pttf.2467 Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 (edited) well, move the the ranked rewards to unranked, where ppl can full premade.

Hockmed.9417 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Ranked 5-man queue was removed because at the time, there were actually many organized "professional teams" that competed for spots at the world tournament. People that weren't on those teams couldn't win, and therefore decided it wasn't worth playing ranked. In an effort to keep the e-sports dream alive, duoQ was introduced to give the non-pros hope and keep them queuing. Forcing people back to (essentially) ranked 5q won't work, because it didn't work before and the community hasn't changed in the direction that would support such a decision. Pips were a later decision to increase rewards for ranked queue to try to get people back into ranked once the population died even more. Moving that to unranked will give nobody a reason to go into ranked unless they want titles. That would bleed the last of the serious pvp community dry, and give anet even less of a reason to manage the spvp mode than they have now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just remove unranked and only allow solo q. Then schedule many more AT's so that there's one every hour for the 5 mans. Also have weekly AT's.
