    I haven't see all posts... so don't know if is something you are working on it... but make matching based on gear score... cuz Most of the time I got killed on first shot... even with a cannon (from a MK 5) this make game boring... it take me 5 or 6 games to get a single kill... most of the time I die and teammates win the game... so infamy keep growing and getting higher

    Hope you read Developers.
    If so... Thanks for a grate game

    Not just mk6's.... from mk 4 and ahead(sometimes mk3, depending on GS) are too strong to an mk2 ship

    MK3 and MK4 are fine at that infamy level. You're way too high as a MK2 ship (congrats) :)

    Modification of the gear score needs to happen and base match making on that instead of strictly the MK of a ship.

    Hi, I know that you’re all unhappy with the current system but in my opinion, adding gear score to the matchmaking algorithm would create more problems than it would solve.

    Here’s a link to a post that someone else started on the same topic today, where I explain my reasoning. I also propose another solution, which many other players subscribe to too.
    https://forum.battlebay.net/threads/new-players-do-not-stand-a-chance.18655/#post-124707

    Anyway, let’s hope that if there is an update coming soon, that your concerns are addressed in that. :)

    No MK2's. Still getting one-shotted quite often by ships with all tier 2 epic gear on their MK5. I sit around 500-750 infamy.

    But in the game it is completely opposite "don't blame the game , blame players"

    One suggestion : dont upgrade to mk3 , i was at 1.1k infamy when i upgraded my enforce to mk3 , and it became worse , i dropped immediately , and also if you upgraded your mk2 to mk3 enforcer you will just be able to use a big sheild instead of your gear lub and a bit extra help , but that won't help you with the new matchmaking
    ,Upgrade your item then your ship . ;-)

    Match making is not just broken in lower leagues. It is also a lot worse in Nightmare league. ( But lesser . Lol) I constantly get matched with mk7 lately, as most of the people in Nightmare has it. And, there is a huge difference between an mk6 and a mk7.
    I hope it gets fixed. :oops:

    This is one such game.

    Also, here are few other gsmes. But I would still say the chance of winning is 50%. But , all i'M asking is when I am mk6 i should play with ships of same level. I know there are lots of mk6 to be matched with. But, still gets matched with mk7.

    Hm, to fix this they could add the rule that the maximum level difference in a match is 2. In the OPs example this would mean only Mk4 - Mk6 or Mk2 - Mk4 in one battle.
    This would surely raise the waiting times for a match though (don't know how long you are currently waiting in the 1000 infamy range).
