    Please please please - fix the game so that we don’t have this kind of situation where one Mk1 is battling alongside 9 Mk5s. Regardless of infamy, this creates an imbalance in the matchup. D52FEBC3-F4B5-46D6-B8C7-F79CDDCA66F0.png

    Maybe don't select a mk1 boat when you have mk4-5 on deck?
    I see that t3 big torp, you ain't slick ;)

    And if you think that because you used mk1 you should play against other mk1s, HA. Then people would load their little mk1s with gear from their mk6s and destroy all the little minnows.

    Edit: oh lmao you're not the mk1. Oh well I mean there's nothing you can do if that's his choice to play a mk1, it just screws everyone over and the point above still stands for anyone

    He was speaking to you.
    As you have a T3 Torp and 1200 infamy, he is saying you must have used a different boat with a higher MK level to get there.
    Imagine if someone in Nightmare league, never used an enforcer so it was a MK1, and then they put all their T5 epics onto the MK1 enforcer, it wouldnt be fair to play against other MK1 users as they would get one shotted, so its fair you play people of similar infamy regardless of MK level.

    I’m thinking it’s not fair either way. They can still design the game so that only similar levels of boat AND similar infamy fight together. Are there not enough players in the game to do that? If some joker with 1500 infamy wants to fight with an Mk1 boat, let him wait until 9 other 1500 infamy Mk1 boats are available. :D

    Certainly not enough players looking for a match at the same time.
    Not many players at 1200 infamy in a MK1, if you had to wait until 10 players were searching at your infamy level with that ship level, you would be waiting a very long time.
    Why don't you just upgrade the ship to balance the odds?

    No no, that’s fine. It’s balanced by the game. So it should be balanced for you ;)
    Just being sarcastic

    OH LOL - y’all think I”m the Mk1? I’m “Kill Da Wabbit”. Maybe that’s a point of confusion?

    Having an mk5 with 1300 infamy is a sin in itself. I mean seriously guyz i hit 2k infamy easily with mk4 and as soon as i got mk5 i started hovering around 2500. Also i am a f2p so it should apply to everyone

    It’s just that you’re extra special, you can take pride in your accomplishments in this video game. :) That, or not everyone’s experiences with this game are the same.

    Haha, yes :D
    Its usually the lower ships complaining they are facing too high level ships!
    This guy has probably switched boats to the MK1, and unfortunately he has been paired with you being a similar infamy.
    Usually though if one team has a low MK level boat, so does the other team more often than not.
    Matchmaking seems harsh with a full roster of MK5s, this is essentially a 4 vs 5 :D

    Being that RNG is used in many aspects of this game, from team assignments to availability of perks in the shop, playing this game is more like walking into a casino, and less like a test of talents. 100 people walk into a casino and 99 people lose money, but one yahoo will walk out with a butt load of money and will say it’s because he’s more talented and skilled than the others - but in reality, he just got lucky.

    1 out of 100 lol....there are many mk5 at my infamy level infact most of the mk5's are above 2k infamy not because they got lucky or something but because they watch and learn from higher level players instead of sulking over forums.

    This game has more to do with luck, even your weapons you get & infamy is the worst way to determine who's better. A much better way is to use a players damage during battles because the way your score is calculated now for seasonal battles is infamy & that's your worth for either winning or losing in a team of 5.

    The same way a mk2 gets to 1800. (I fought with a lvl 13 fixer who's best item was a t2R, and was using t1-t2Uncommons at 1800+. We won, and the fixer did about 4000 healing)

    It would be interesting to see the actual stats of players being compared, because I see a LOT of Mk5s at 700 infamy. Bell curves, I wanna see Bell curves. :)
