I don't really like the idea of splitting queues into people who are hardcore following the meta vs completely relaxed. But I also hate queueing for higher difficulties and getting matched with level 5 players who don't have a Booster unlocked yet.
The thing that seems to work pretty well in deep rock is that you can create a server and name it. Usually it's something like greenbeards (noobs) welcome. No cryo (it contradicts fire damage) or what level you have to be at min. Just things like that. I think that would filter out a lot of problems like that. But the drg community also seems way more lay back than the helldivers community.
Good on ya for bringing up Deep Rock Galactic; I also agree the system in that game works ok...but also the community in DRG (I'm my opinion) is way more welcoming...I don't know why that is, just from my experience.
you usually pick the second one if you want a better experience lol
Tbf, though, while I do my best to be noob friendly, I've had a moment recently when there were, like, 3 greenbeard scouts in the random group I was playing with that were doing jack. I guess I was in a bad mood that day, so I just host-disbanded that game. Kinda feel bad about that still lol
