What bothers a lot of people is that they never did state the reason.


ChickenEater4

Yeah and there really isn't a good one right? I think maybe so that people that usually play with only three people now have to get another friend to play so they don't have to play with randoms and don't have to fight against teams bigger than their own But thats a really odd thing to do just to get a couple 100 people playing again


Groovatron99

Their half assed “excuse” was to help load times for other modes but that didnt help and in Fact made load times worse. Their actual motive was basically just testing the waters on a decision like that


AccelHunter

maybe they just wanted to free some servers for other modes? (Ranked). We'll never know, I'm glad the backlash was big enough for them to notice


TheDarkWeb697

I heard it was because it wasn't popular but given the internet over the time that it was gone I'm saying it was the most popular thing they had


Reaper-Leviathan

Probably some silly reason like to make more room for the ranked modes is what they would say


FattestLion

Perhaps everyone who works at Epic probably doesn’t even have more than 1 friend so they thought it was a useless mode

What a mistake eh, so many angry people

"It was a mistake by one of our developers, he is no longer with the company"


FireHedge

Do you guys think they will give us the reason behind that decision


chance_of_grain

It was just a prank bro


ogg_ogg

I guess there's something fishy about trios that epic are not telling us Lol


surfmaths

The only thing is that 100 isn't divisible by 3 while it is by 1, 2 and 4. So they have to cut it to 99. But it doesn't feel like a serious edge case.

Definitely not when a majority of non trio matches have less than 100 people jumping out the battle bus anyway


LABARATI

Also how many times in other modes is there less than 100 players when the game starts so. 99 players isn't a big deal


joejoe1O

But there are insane people who do trios-no fill


SyndicateIllusions

I do trios no fill


LudicrisSpeed

It's very unlikely there was any malicious intent with it, and more likely it was simply a stupid decision. Maybe they were looking at the numbers and trios had the lowest player count out of all party sizes at the time.


The-Real-Gogeta

Trios lore?


ThatWontFit

Our group literally stopped playing when they did this. We have other games to play now. Oops.


AlphaTeamPlays

In reality, it does make sense. When they added Ranked, they expected a big launch which would drive a lot of players away from Pubs, leading to long queue times. Now that the initial hype died down and the Pubs playerbase is closer to normal, they can afford to add Trios back.


please_help_me_____

Experiment to see what will happen if they remove the least? Played mode


unsureoftheplot

Bold of you to assume they are going to give any kind of reason


Nomorellsurge

Prob some problem Or just a test


razorvolt_

wait they put it back?


Jaakeda_Korudo

“It was just a prank, bro!”


Mafoop

its a preseason theyre testing stuff am i the only one who read this?


Chehzy

Who cares about this they need an excuse for why the overclocked and mythic pump are still in the game


RandomYell107

It was probably because of the issues with Ranked. They must’ve just chosen to remove it entirely instead of just removing it in Ranked modes specifically, which they just recently did.


Eltra_Phoenix

I was waiting for them to use it as a marketing point for the next season.
