Improving Role Selection

Iritar··1 votes·294 views

So, I've noticed that there is an issue with auto-fill in a lot of games I play. People get upset when they are auto-filled support, or some role that they don't work. Other games have approached this subject in a way that I think works better and removes the "auto-fill" option.

Instead of having a "primary/secondary" role, I think it would be better to do the roles similarly to how Evolve has done this. Give us the option to set the different roles in an order of preference from 1-5 or "fill/don't care."

I think that this would solve the issue of auto-fill, because people would know that there is a possibility of getting a less desired roll. It also would let people who don't play certain roles, queue up for the roles they are better suited for. For instance, I am not a big fan of the marksman position. I would much prefer to support in ranked, than to play marksman. I think that in this situation, it would be better that I have the support position above the marksman position, so that others can be more likely to get whatever roles they want.

I'm not certain about the implementation of this system from a coding side as I have no experience with that. For all I know, it might be super difficult to implement. I would like to hear from a Red just to know if this is something that has been thought of and scrapped for some reason, or if there is a reason why the "primary/secondary" system is better. If there are any questions about this idea, I'd be happy to speak to them, but I'm just a casual gamer who enjoys the game and wants to try to make it better for everyone.

Thank you for taking the time to read and enjoy your day guys. I hope to see you on the Rift, Iritar

Should just rename it to Autosupport

then mess around with unorthodox support champs and have fun playing the game? Yas sup ftw.
