Please make a separate selection in HG for which, for example, 100 lvl faction is required. People who create accounts two hours ago and play dishonestly really spoil the impression of the game. Especially since it's free for them because of the game pass.
Playable HG
@veronik5682 A level cap to dive to hourglass... I need a source for THAT. That would be so endlessly stupid. "You're not allowed to do on demand PvP because you didn't spend enough time on the PVE" is a take that the playerbase will not like, especially because you literally do not even unlock athenas until you are PL. "You are not allowed to play guardians hourglass yet because you ar not pirate legend" means that 96.32% of the playerbase (3.68% of players have the achievement for pirate legend) are NOT ALLOWED to play Athena hourglass.
Second, putting barriers in front of people wanting to play hourglass will make it so that almost no one new will ever try hourglass. If you think the queue times are bad now and that the game mode is dying already...

They mentioned it on two separate occasions on video in their dev logs lol, as well as Drew Stevens replying to a comment made on X if they are still working on implementing it with a ''yes'' answer. There's multiple sources out there. Do your research.

Who knows that the level cap will be, knowing RARE it will probably take a day or two of grind to unlock that.
Also there's already PvP outside of Hourglass, it's to get new players familiar with the core mechanics instead of straight diving and ruining a match since it's heavily imbalanced skill wise. If you are someone that likes sinking a swabbie player for the 5th time in a row, then idk what to tell you outside you might as well be playing against beginner bots in other video game out there.Second, putting barriers in front of people wanting to play hourglass will make it so that almost no one new will ever try hourglass.

Hence why the matchmaking update for Hourglass is coming out soon, making all of what you just said: Irrelevant.
@veronik5682 "dO yOuR rEsEaRcH" So basically you are making a claim and do not actually care to substantiate it or can't substantiate it and are hoping I don't call you on it. You made the claim, you have the burden of proof. Show me the proof that they said that you would need a minimum level to play HG. Don't spread misinfo.
@veronik5682 Cool whataboutism. Actually address my arguments. Also explain how the new update is supposed to "fix" matchmaking instead of just handwaving it because you want to
@potatosord this will hurt no one but cheating players avoiding bans. Nobody starts this game from HG. It is a clean and well designed solution.
