This needs to be put back in the game, immediately.

I am a lvl 88+ player and former NF1 driver.  We sit here queuing up individually, hoping for the autobalance to put us on same teams.  It doesn;t seem to work out that way.  

I understand that platoon queue is broken, and it was affecting other people solo queues.  None the less, I dont have the incentive to log in and play anymor without being able to play either with or against my buddies.

Currently, there's no way to guarantee games with your friends without a designated matchmaking utility that enables you to queue as a team.  I dont know wether it breaks down matchmaking with your BO level or the tier of ships you are queueing with - or if it's powered by kim chi and magic beans.  I have no clue, and don;t pretend that you understand it either.

SDE/NF2NA - add a feature to queue as a group.  Fix matchmaking/platoon.  No more cred events or misshapen anime boobie events until you fix this.  High level players who have achieved their end tier ships need a reason to log in.  Add team play, go go go.
