Is this really fun?

I know we haven't here lol I was just hoping @Ash KOT being an mvp may have had some other interaction with devs we haven't?

 

my problem is worse,
i have 9k gear score with mk6 and i play with/against 11k-12k ,
if not that then with/against all t5 epic red items with 1,2 other weak items (or without other items )

https://forum.battlebay.net/threads/reported-ways-to-cheat-matchmaking-system.21007/
if that is the case then they are just removing only windows , or putting old seats ,,
when someone (like those defenders , that i see a lot of them , uses 3 T5E and 1 T5E big shield and 1T5E turbo (~12k hp) (7k gear score ) since he is trying to cheat the server then he will be put with higher gear score players (like me 9k gear score mk6 ) and they destroy my team , so if they want to fix this matchmaking they should put every single seal clubber with all much much higher gear score players
if a player uses 3 t5 epic items and others low items (7k gear score) then he should play with/against all+t5 epic items players(12k gear score ), this how it will be stupid if someone do that , not putting them against us .

 

surely it is an easy fix the GS gets an adjustment based on the max level of your highest weapon. i.e if you have a leg weapon T1 then you have a minimum GS of x no matter what else you put on your ship. Now this figure would need to be low to not include the grinders on achievements but it could be done so that it stops this no?

This way if they put high lvl weapons on and weak everything else to 1 shot lower GS players the minimum GS would kick in and would make the tactic backfire.

 

But my enforcer has some t4 weapons but but blue and especially yellow items items are lagging behind greatly! Not intentionally, I would have liked em to be just as high but lack of resources forces us to priorities when lvling up and Its a result of what I felt would work better for me while growing
Pretty sure I wouldn't be the only one? Some ppl might only have 1 or 2 high tier items cos they've not been around long enough to work every thing they need

I think something like this was in effect during the 1 v 1 and 2 v 2 events, because my two t4 weapons on my mk5 (7k gs over all) caused me to be matched with mk6 and 7 boats fully decked out with t4 and even 5 items with gs of 9-10k
Lol making me pretty much toast in 80% of matches

 

That is why I said the minimum would have to be calculated carefully. So say for a T5 rare,T4 epic or T1 leg as they are all roughly the same power it would be x which would basically be if the shield etc were T1 rare or something like that. I am sure yours is above that Currently this is what the seal clubbers are doing, they take awesome weapons and uncommon or rare T1 everything else to keep GS down.

I am not sure how the 1 or 2 tier difference worked, was it just on the weapons or did it include shields etc too and were these compared to weapons??

 

I just wanna say one thing..

Gearscore exploiter is a big problem but..SHIT PLAYER IS AN EVEN BIGGER PROBLEM! You can't solve this problem sadly because its not in dev's hand to control someone's skill and game intelligence..but you can solve gearscore exploit..

 

what?!
some players are better and some are worse than others but that's normal in every single game, in school, work etc.
some people ae better at something and some are worse at something but that doesn't mean you should call them "SHIT PLAYER" just because they lack the skill
it's not problem, it's normal situation and it's easily solved by infamy system (theoreticaly)-two players have same gear, one is more skilled so he's able to reach higher infamy and compete with stronger opponents and the other player is not so skilled so he's not able to compete with the stronger opponents so his infamy is lower
and fair matches would look like this: similar gear (with only small differences) in both teams, one team has more skilled players so this team is going to win because it's just more skilled, not because it has much higher firepower but similar gear score, noone could complain because they would loose mainly because of their skill, not items

 

People, if you want this feedback to mean anything, start posting screenshots and replays and point out specifically what you think is wrong / unfair. Discussion is pretty meaningless like this. If you find clear exploit cases, with obvious impact on the match outcome, I bet the devs would love to fix these.

 

something like posts in this thread?

@ShipCrusherCz look I dont mind them being shit..I just want people to realise that they are a peoblem as well even when GS exploit is fixed..

So event will continue to be a torture until you realise that you need to play smart and selfish when your teammates cant be trusted..event will be a torture unless you turn a 0-2 coins defeat into a 4-6 coins defeat..

 

I know what are you trying to say but everyone started somewhere so you should not blame less skilled players because they're less skilled, it would be better (for everyone) if you gave them some tips and told them some tactics so they would know what to do next time
low coin losses are caused by change(s) devs made to events, it's not because of bad teammates, it was possible to have 6-8 losses even with bad teammates before

 

something tells me you are part of the problem as you mention playing selfish so in other words not as a team?!?
