## Key points

- DMZ added a solo queue for fairer matches.
- Players say squads are still grouping in free-for-all bouts.
- The change is welcome, but its impact is being questioned.

## Summary

Modern Warfare 4’s DMZ mode has added a solo queue, a change players had been requesting. The update aims to stop solo players from being matched against organised squads, making encounters fairer.

However, players say the benefit was quickly undermined when squads entered free-for-all matches together. The article describes this as a recurring problem in DMZ and notes that the change has been welcomed despite the loophole.
