On their own, they’re fine. I actually even enjoy some of the games in PGG. The problem is that more than 50% or more of the determining factors for achieving success in either is dependent on things completely outside of your control, namely other players. OA is a breeding ground for rammers, and I think I’ve gotten a decent team in PGG maybe 10% of the times I’ve played?
Speaking of PGG, what’s the deal with uneven teams being a thing? There’s literally no reason why a 2v5 should ever be possible, yet I experienced just that when 60% of our team suddenly left (no joke, this happened not even an hour before posting this). How am I expected to win with that? Even if I did everything absolutely right, it’s a total no-win situation.
Maybe if they made it so that merely completing the seasonal PGGs in its entirety counted towards the playlist instead of having to win, that’s a compromise I would be fine with; then people will still be pushed out of their comfort zone and encouraged to try something new without it feeling like you’re punishing them.
However, I’m not going to maybe spend 3+ hours playing the same 5 “games” over and over just in hopes that my team is eventually competent enough to actually win once. I’d rather not torture myself than win a car, but I’d rather both if PG makes it possible (and I hope they do, I’ve become far less inclined to play since this was implemented)
The biggest contributor to the playlist, qualify for online adventure, doesn't even need to you win, you just participate. So why do you even care about the environment? Sit there at the starting line and just move your steering wheel every 60 seconds, so you don't lag out for inactivity. Rinse and repeat 10 times, and you are done.... I don't recommend doing that in TEAM adventure racing or games because you are hurting other people's experience but in FFA, which is the fastest event to get into and doesn't need 12 out of 12 to start an event, you only affect yourself, so who cares?
The playground game is a breeze. Get some friends together to enter, or if you don't have any buddies to team up with, start a convoy and invite good teammates from a failed attempt to make a good team for yourself. If you are on an uneven team just quit and restart the queue for a new match. Why are you even trying to struggle? Just LEAVE an uneven match. You eventually will get a team that knows what to do (if you yourself are an average player you have a 50/50 chance). If you or any teammates are bringing a vehicle less than A800, you/they are a possible reason people quit immediately. People that don't bring fully tuned vehicles in are immediate indicators of a useless teammate. If your team is full of stock vehicles that don't have AWD and proper tunes, and it is obvious the other team is superior.... LEAVE. If you have lost 3 rounds.... LEAVE. Once you win 3 rounds, who cares about the next two, hopefully your opponents have a brain and leave after that and give you the instant win, but if they stay, no big deal you have no worries of losing the match....
The Trial... If you don't already have friends you can do the trial with and are going to attempt it with a random team, just add any competent drivers to your convoy if you lose the event. As long as you are a decent racer and not the one at the bottom bringing the team down, other good drivers will gladly join your convoy. All you need to do is invite any other decent racer from a previous race to a convoy and re-try the event. Eventually you get enough good players together and you win.... The earlier you attempt the trial in a series the better chance you have. Never wait till the end when all the bottom feeders are the only ones left still trying to win the event....
