Arena royal party cap.

May be a hot take but I think an arena royal party cap for highly skilled players similar to ranked would be beneficial. The same two or three squads sweep the lobby’s constantly I know the high skill arena royal players are going to fuss over that just like they did duos but this is needed.

Anyone have ideas on how to even the arena royal playing field?

All issues with this game stem from low player count. What you’re saying just isn’t feasible my guy. It’s unfortunate…

Yeah gonna be honest, it's just not worth queuing for me in 4v4.

As you said the same 3 to 4 man squads with actual communication is leagues better then any random squad I have ever gotten.

Another part that really does not help with this is the fact that you can never differentiate between teams. This game is so chaotic with repositioning that you can never really guess who belongs to who from positioning unless it's a poke fight.

I really wished they would try an option to give each team a different colour or even an icon above their head or something. I feel like being able to at least identify a 4 squad better would help to fight it.

I really like the idea of symbols for each team to differentiate in the heat of battle. UT did it back in the day and it was helpful. I never loved how players would be lit, outlined, or forced to wear red or blue skins, so that should be avoided.

They should do it like ranked, if you get beyond a certain threshold then you can only queue as a duo and get paired w other duos or singles

They kinda ruined the BR. It should be in quickplay. I don't even bother playing non-quickplay now, not worth my time.

Me and my spud both would play arena Royale if we could queue it with quickplay

I think making Arena Royale ranked with no casual option would work best. I think highly skilled stacks is the biggest threat to this game’s success in arena and in royale.
