Let's Discuss Matchmaking

[wolverine848 13,097]

Getting so tired of being on the team in Siege with players that are afraid of getting their paint scratched.

These 4-6 powder-puffs all hang back with their magnums and gauss while the rest of us blue-collars try to tuff it out in the mosh-pit.  Once I see that happening it's adios.  They obviously only care about stars... don't seem to mind losing 0-5.

[wolverine848 13,097]

Just left a CTF battle where it was 9 tanks vs 7 tanks. LMAO.  Other team (with 9 tanks) capped 2 flags before half my team even moved.  Was an easy decision to exit that game.

The new Island MM map is weird.

I'd like to know how MatchMaker creates a "balance" like this...

5xLegend+3xGismo   vs  2xLegend+2xGismo+3xMarshal+1xGeneral

No surprise the Seige battle ended quickly with a shut-out by team on... .... the left.

I hate the sieges camp the point concept. Just flat out boring and one team basically has to be stronger than the other team to guarantee an easy win. That's why if I want to play a point capturing game mode, I'll just go to CP.

 

As for siege, if I get put into it via quick battle button, I'll just leave that battle and try again.

I usually change those missions.  But this time I had THREE of them.

Well, Damn, that sucks.

 

Enemy team just overpowering you due to numbers game every time you try to capture the point, and most of your team being D-bags and taking all th viable kills. Which leaves you to score little to no points at all. I feel ya, man.

 

They should just remove siege mode and it's missions from the game. The game mode is just bad taste.

You haven't seen anything. I can understand maybe Lieutenants joining to Brigadier games, but this is just sad. 

It got to the point where I had to give user a kill so at least he could get some sort of D/L by the end. The guy was going around with Mk3 stuff while the rest had Mk7s and up!

It's messed up.  No way - during peak hours on weekend - MM should be unbalancing battles this badly.

More and more players will just give up.

Just needed to blow off some steam and rant a bit, trying to play CTF and MM threw me in a dozen already lost matches in a row before I gave up.

 

Thank you for MM, its pure crap.

 

Oh, and yeah, Hornet Online.

MM just placed me in a battle with 3 minutes elapsed.  Score was 4-0 for enemy team.  4-0 in 3 minutes.

I don't think so...     E-X-I-T.

[DieselPlatinum 5,121]

Yeah, um. I'll just add a strong enemy with scout alteration as yet another reason to leave the battle.

 

Encountered many in my battles today and those things are ridiculous. An mk6 scout could just keep suppressing my mk8 stock thunder shots because of the fast reload combined with the massive impact force that it retains from stock railgun.

Siege is a dysfunctional battle mode with too few players. Not playing it at all.

[Ethiaa 135]

It's my favourite battle mode, I play it all the time *shrugs*

It would be good if a mod could share their opinion on this. I believe many people not only hate matchmaking but despise it. Firstly, if you look at just the number of people playing the game, there used to consistently be 100-120k+ playing at once and now there they are lucky to hit 20k at a peak hour in the day during a festival. The reason for the decrease in players may not entirely be matchmaking, but it sure as hell did not help the cause. Secondly, there are people that put hours into creating a map and if you are not gonna use certain maps like Siege, Lost Temple and some of the extremely popular older ones, what is the point of them? Thirdly, you guys always seem to argue, "No oNE WaNtS to WoRRy AbOuT WhiCH MaP To ChoOSE" but you guys could not be further off the truth, as I have spoken to many players on this matter, they want to have the luxury to choose a map that best suits their equipment and that does not have a battle that is already over or extremely unbalanced. I kindly want to propose a suggestion to the developers, they have chosen to separate the 2 types of battles into Pro and MM. However, it think it would be a better idea to actually allow the choice for maps and possibly time of battle in MM. This way, you include the people that "want to get into a battle as quick as possible for any mode" and the people that want to choose their battles while not letting certain maps die. The funds should be the way matchmaking already is. Now in terms of restrictions, you could still have pro battles for the really picky people that don't want drugs, etc..

Are you expecting anything except full support for MM with a list of reasons why it is JUST THE BEST?

Good luck...

[JohnMatrix 18]

My team is perpetually 1 or 2 players down vs enemy team these days. Am I the only one seeing this?

 All I'm doing is just asking for all maps to be considered, balance in games, and ability to choose the time a battle goes for, surely that's not too much to ask for...

[ERADICATIONNATION 185]

Sigh...

I hate being ragdolled by an enemy scout user. Super annoying. Especially if you use Viking.

It was a nice 3 v 3 Juggernaut battle for 2 minutes until everyone else showed up.

Lol, I just leave the battle if it has a lot of legend ranked players in it. Simple.
