Hi, thank you for clicking this thread. This post is about rooms becoming "full" and a "split" happens.
In most cases I feel that split actually hurts my enjoyment. I personally get thrown into a room with random people and forced to play with them. When I do play seriously I like to look at my teammates and who I am facing to get a general idea on my chances of winning. Kinda like a game of poker. The main reason i feel it hurts everyone enjoyment is because 9/10 times people will leave the locked room or spec when a game splits. this sucks.
Anyway I have spoken way too much so I will now tell you my suggestion readers!
Just like small teams and 1vs1. Have a teams limit. Have the team limit be 24 players.
Now we have 2 alternates. We can lock the room and we can also just stop more then 24 people from joining the teams as in 1vs1 for example so it 12vs12.
My personal suggestion is to lock the room once the cap is reached if the game has not started. When the game has started. the room unlocks and people can spec if they want. Obviously the cap limit is still there so no more then 24 people at a time can take part in a battle.
I personally feel this is much better alternate then !split which causes people to leave rooms and not play or even go as far as to log out for a while.
Thank you for reading my post.
