Why is everyone always playing in 6 player rooms?

[brian]

Meh, I see no redeeming qualities to having 6 players in a room. Either its filled with good players, in which case youre going to be losing some percentage of the time and waiting around, or theres a bunch of players you can beat all the time, in which case its boring anyway.

And like I said above, disconnecting in a 6 player room (which I think happens to me about 20% of my games or something) is extra agony.

I’ll stick to creating 4 player rooms and sending out invites I guess.

I prefer a 4 slot room. Has some benefits of each.
I **HATE **waiting forever in between matches.
But, I emjoy good gamer camaraderie.

I don’t get it. Every time I join a game with an SRKer on my friends list, I’m always taken to a room with 6 players. Am I the only one who finds these rooms painful?
You can’t afford to experiment or play new characters, because if you lose, you have to wait forever for another turn. Then when you finally get a chance to play again, half the time it disconnects.

Also there’s usually a couple bad players in the rooms along with the good players, which just eats up time between good games.

So someone please explain the 6 player room phenomenon to me.

In short, it’s the closest thing many of us have to an arcade.

i love 6 player rooms, if its with good players or with buddies. more incentive to play harder so you dont have to wait. saying you hate a 6 player room is like saying “fuck arcades.” I find motivation there to play harder, cuz I dont wanna wait either.

6 player rooms do suck tho with randoms, and it does suck if no one is talking if in a room with good players and buddies.

where are these rooms at? nobody ever invites me :<

I would have no problem with 6 player rooms if I could actually watch the match going on (and if there IS a way to do that, please tell!) but sitting in there watching life bars go down while I wait my turn is not my idea of fun.

this just sucks, it happend to me several times a few days, so annoying. :mad:

6 player rooms revives an arcade feeling :woot: :lovin:

[Carbunkle_Flux]

Okay. I participate in a match and suddenly I am actually watching matches instead of just seeing life bars move. I am all right with this, even if I’m not sure what triggered it.

[Pimp_Willy]

Thats the online mode… you only see lifebars for the FIRST match. Once a new one starts, and you’re in the room at the start, you watch the matches.

Not only do I love 6 player rooms, I would like to thank the creators for adding that. Hf had 4 player rooms, Remix has 6, maybe SF4 have 8 j/k.

I personally like smaller rooms better.
