One of you is over 1600 rating. Even though rating is hidden during placement matches it's still there in the background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emtiarbi.3281 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I think there are still bugs, not sure why we got a match with 3 mesmers and 2 scourges.  Hope that image gives you some insight on any bug D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was put out last season, and it tells you when you go to Queue that you can’t Queue in that message.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm aware, I meant the fact that it limits queueing together even when you are doing placement matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ithilwen.1529 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Why are you queue'ing with someone that distant in ranking anyway? Is this an attempt to sandbag or "smurf?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winter.1475 Posted January 17, 2018 Author Share Posted January 17, 2018 No, we're probably both above 1600 rating. I just thought that it didn't apply until you were out of placement matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well even if you are placing you have a rating so why wouldn’t the rules apply? The reason they don’t show the rating is so people don’t get scared by the high volatility of the rating swinging when they win/lose. Nothing has been stated that you would be allowed to group together if you are in placements still Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this an attempt to sandbag or "smurf?" Some people have friends. Crazy, I know. The concept of wanting to play a mmo with other people just blows my mind too.
