Why are so many new coop games 3 person instead of 4?
I’ve seen a bunch of games recently that focus on 3 person teams for coop online. Space Marines 2, Nightreign, and soon to be released FBC: Firebreak come to mind. My issue with these is matchmaking takes forever without a full group. I figure most people have at least 1 friend they’re playing with so they need to be matched with a solo random player. This means there’s a bunch of 2 person teams that can’t be matched together. If these games were balanced around 4 people, the 2 person teams could get together and get into games faster. Other issue is when I have more than just 2 friends on and want to play, we can’t all play together and have to split up. As much as I dislike Fortnite for what it is, being able to play solo, duos, threes, and a full squad is great for matchmaking. End rant #games source
