Automatically consolidate small lobbies into fuller lobbies

Here’s the best translation for your text:


Hello everyone,

For a long time, I’ve been noticing an issue that really irritates me, and I believe it bothers other players too: lobbies with very few players (between 5 and 8 players).

It’s common, even during peak hours, to end up in lobbies with very few players, forcing you to leave and re-enter multiple times to try and find a fuller lobby, which doesn’t always work. Most of the time, you end up in different lobbies that are almost empty.

In my opinion (and I’m not sure if you agree), Turn 10 could implement an algorithm that tries to consolidate these empty lobbies (like an array_merge for the programmers out there XD), which typically have between 5 and 10 players, into fuller lobbies. This could perhaps happen about a minute before the race starts. With fuller lobbies, the chances of having better races would increase considerably.

I’m looking forward to hearing your opinions! Cheers!

change the matchmaking algorithm because it creates new empty lobbies instead of optimizing and filling the existing ones… it seems like an empty game

I completely agree with you, it’s definitely a way forward!
The current matchmaking is ridiculous.

the game is dying, you can’t play in full lobbies.

I’ve been finding only empty lobbies in the Mustang series for days. DO SOMETHING. change matchmaking, remove superfluous series, but try to cram the number of players into the smallest number of lobbies
