    With all this emphasis on fair play, how about making matchmaking fair? Just had a fight against four level five shooter boats and a level two fixer. We had a mix of shooters and speeders. We had one level five, all other boats were level three and four. They had one boat float, and we were still crushed. How is that “fair” to place four level five boats against one?

    I don't like the matchmaking either but I AM SICK AND TIRED of these pointless ' fix the matchmaking' threads. On behalf of the devs; WE GET IT!!

    If they truly get it (and care about player experience), it would be fixed. Either they don’t care or have some rationale that eludes me. In either case the only way it will change is if people vocalize their opinions. I hope they spend more time reading these pointless threads, maybe they will matter at some point.

    Try facing lvl 5 boats 95% of the time as being a lvl 2 boat. When you actually get the 5% chance of a even play it makes you enjoy the game for 2 minutes again LOL. Complete trash they base it off Infamy points and not the lvl of a persons boat. Custom battle, team play i can see a average of lvl of boat but not just a quick game match and getting F'd 95% of the time. I guess its another thing that comes back down to $ with them and screwing over the lvl 2 n 3 guys.... Makes me think its the same programmers who work for stupidcell, clash of clans....

    Fine, how exactly do you want it ”fixed”? Unless you have an idea on how to improve it, don’t go around here yelling ”fix this, fix that”, please.

    Matchmaking thread count: 4 billion +6 i think?

    Then we as MVPs will delete any and all threads that have devolved into nothing constructive.

    Period.

    Oh, throwing around the MVP status.. Fine stifle the board to just what you want to hear

    This is more the problem, NOT the post.. Rude and nasty people and you call yourself an MVP.. Sad

    Lets all message Antisnipe first before we post, and lets see if he approves

    Language. I found it rude. With that tone you will aggravate more people and they will just do to annoy even if they get perma ban. There are ways, you know it.

    Hello Mr. MVP @TheAntiSnipe

    I have a few queries which I hope you can help resolve. I'm told you are the go to person here for all such issues so please help me out.

    1. Figuring out how to fix the matchmaking is the DEVELOPER'S JOB, that's what they are supposed to do, they's what they get paid for. If they're gonna ask the players to "discuss constructively to arrive at a solution" then wtf are they being employed for? Would you please ask the devs this and give me an answer asap?.

    2. The forum exists as a bridge between the devs and the players (Well...it's supposed to). If they players are not allowed to discuss their issues here then wtf do they have a freaking forum for?. Would you please ask the devs this and give me an answer asap?.

    3. The players have actually tried constructively discussing this issue and arrived at a dozen different solutions, some sounded stupid but some were really good but all the ideas were completely ignored and many a times the devs did not even bother responding at all.

    Since discussing the problem constructively does not work and now the MVP says he'll delete all the regular complain threads in a public forum which was made so the players can address such issues.
    Would the devs prefer we stop wasting our time here and give the app a negative review in Google playstore instead?.
    Would you please ask the devs this and give me an answer asap?.

    Lol maybe we should all calm down. I am pretty sure u all have valid suggestions and the AntiSnipe probably typed before thinking or probably meant something totally different to what u thought he meant. Instead of saying all threads, he should have said most.

    If that is indeed what he means then let him apologize for it and take back his word.

    Make no mistake, I'm not taking any sides, I'm not anymore happy with the number of whine threads than anybody else here.

    However I'm not happy with the way these people are treated. If the devs or the mvps hate the sheer number of posts then they should either do something about it like fixing the issue for example or they should have separate official sticky threads for everybody to complain about matchmaking issues, ships, weapons, yellow items, blue items, green items, etc.

    Demanding people to stop complaining and claiming they will delete these threads is just plain douchebaggery (Forgive me if I'm being crude, cold, cruel and nasty but this is how I saw the tone of the conversation).

    Agreed they are mostly trolled to death by some certified badasses on forums who reached NM league. Gotta give them awards haha
    That was straight taunt! I gave a simple solution lock the thread and post a link which diverts to a well discussed thread..But you taunted him and yet didn't lock thread .... Not smart! Just makes you look bad
