On top of improving the experience of solos by “protecting” them from stacking, we believe that this change will improve the overall match quality by assuring that the players you will be playing against have a similar team composition to yours (i.e. Even in this case combinations for them to play against parties of 4+1 or 3+2 will be prioritizied, which means that solos vs premade will now be extremely unlikely and limited to occasions in which finding a match is better than waiting much longer. This means that we will try to match parties with similar compositions and avoid solos to play against a full premade teams.Īs an example, if a premade team joins the queue they will not be matched against five solos unless they have been in the queue for over ten minutes, which in most queues is unlikely. We’ve improved the matching algorithms to take stacking balancing into account. Free queue in CS:GO Europe now selects optimized location based on historical ping and availability.Premium queue now checks parties for skill variances preventing low skilled players to party with high skilled players.Team composition now taken into account avoiding stack vs.This time it’s core improvements to the feedback we’ve lately received from you - from abusive booster accounts to improved experience for both Free and Premium users. We have packed quite a few new improvements for the Counter-Strike community this week.
