There are literally 3 commanders total in matchmaking right now. That would be bad enough but we all jumped into the game together. Meaning before we decided to get in there were ZERO commanders in CQC.
Been Playing this version for about 6 months, and have probably 1000 plus hours in game. Not a thumb jockey and just passable at combat in game. CQC - Never even tried it. When I see the CQC stat on left panel I think what a waste of space, I would love to have my mining stats there instead. I know it is not just me I see a lot of commanders who post screen shots of the rank page and the CQC rank is like mine Helpless and will probably be until they quit the game.
I don't think CQC should be stopped, for those who like more power to them. I fail to understand why FD wastes this rank slot.
My 2 cents/pence

You know. There are actually people who have obtained the rank of elite in CQC. Do you think the slot is wasted for them?

Of course not, the needs of the few outweigh the needs of the many, we all know that. FD has been combat focused for a while now as most of the updates show. FD treats CQC like its ED flagship. Although maybe not nearly as much as the coaster thing they do.

It doesn't necessarily mean that.
There could be any number of multiples of eight playing and you would not get into a game but apart from that, it seems the matchmaker does not always connect people who are searching for a match regardless.

Maybe you should try it sometime. You have it for free, it won't take a lot of time out of your day and you might like it.
It would fit in well with most beginners then - indeed, actually being able to avoid the obstacles would put it ahead of several Prestige pilots. I think I was rank 30 or so before I was more than just an easy target...
So long as it's good enough to get beginner matches started - it can drop out as soon as a second player shows up - it probably won't need to be very good. The ability to guarantee a match (of any sort) at any time would do more to getting enough players around to mean the AI wasn't much needed than anything else.
This much is true!OK, if the bots are only used to satisfy the requirement of there being at least four players (or better still only two players) and drop out as human players join, I think I can see the benefit. I wonder how you would score bot destruction though. Perhaps some inverse of your level so anyone over say level 30 gets nothing.
One can usually find some matches after 2200 hours CET or so.

You'd think CQC would be heavily populated with pvp'rs but problem is.. in CQC their targets have a fair chance
