NO LOBBIES!?! Thats a VERY big mistake.
If you want a Play Now option, then have it like before. The older Socom had an option to find a room AND manually find one. Although the Play Now option on the older game didn't work half the time. People did use it occasionally. I know cause i was one of them.
The main reason WHY removing lobbies is a bad idea. It gives the player(s) more control over the room. It could be for PAINTBALL, NO NOOBTUBERS, SMALL/BIG MAP, FAVORITE MAP PLAYLIST, CLAN TRYOUTS, etc. Alot of gameplay methods might die because of this.
A lil off topic...You guys created one of the best games ever. I dont doubt you on this game either, I see alot of potentual, but seriously, we got to get back on track. I'm not saying listen the majority, cause the majority don't know whats really good for them, but the few (that i like to call the 13%) do know whats up. Like you guys said, its all about how you present yourself, and a video goes a long way compared to this post. What i'm trying to get at. You had a very well defined game for its time to EVOLVED around REALISM and raising the bar in the game idustry (btw 256 ppl in one room, very nice, you got props). Right now, it seems like you are leaning towards arcade gaming to get more income, but let me ask you. What will win in the longrun, arcade gaming or realism gaming? You've already got the reputation for realism gaming. You also have a breed of Socom users. I'm just asking, don't try to please everyone and please stick to the methods of creating a more advanced combat user.
