Short Version: I do not like this! And following the chat, most people do not like this matchmaking system. The one big reason: The players are loosing many choices they had before! Examples: - If I had a mission to capture flags: I was choosing small ctf maps, which made my chance bigger to complete the mission faster. I cannot choose smaller maps anymore. - If I liked the teams or players on a map, I could just stay on that map for the next round. I cannot choose to stay on a map with same players anymore (In the mode where I can get points and crystals) - Generally: I could choose the maps I liked to play on. Now I cannot choose maps anymore (As long as I want to advance in the game and make points and crystals) - I could choose a setup (hull, turret, etc) and then go to maps for which this setup is good. I cannot do this anymore (as long as I want to make points and crystals). Even if I change equipment in the game when already on a map....next round brings me to another map and I have to change all over again. - I could choose maps where the round was just beginning, or almost finished. Both has good reasons sometimes. Now I cannot choose that anymore. If I have to wait 2 minutes to get on a map and then the round is just about to finish, this can be really annoying! There are many many more examples, but they all come down to same annoying thing (in my opinion): As a player, I loose many choices I had before. I loose control over many aspects of the game. I loose many tactical choices. It takes much longer to fulfill missions, as I cannot choose maps according to what my mission asks from me. I just cannot choose anymore! Choice is what makes a game and tactics diverse. We players just lost a lot of choices! Well, and if the whole thing is about making more money: I did spend some money in this game. I would have even spent more in the future. But if this matchmaking system stays in place, I will choose other games and completely quit this one. No money from me anymore, because so many cool choices in this game have been taken away from me. I will do other things now for the time of the tests going on, and when I come back after the test and the matchmaking system is still in place.......then BYE BYE (and bye bye my money for you). It is totally understandable that a company wants to make profit. I will pay money in games in future, but only in games that are fun to play and give me choices. No choices, lame game! No players after not too long... Please think about this. Think about giving the players fun choices to keep the game interesting. I hope this makes sense to the developers and the decision-makes in the company. Very sad about this test.
